Cornell's Founding

Approval of Ezra Cornell's Plan WasGiven by Harper's Weekly in

April, 1865

Editorial comment on the proposal ofEzra Cornell to found Cornell University,first printed in Harper's Weekly for April22, 1865, has been unearthed by JeannetteB. Cook '13 of Watervliet. An excerptfrom the article in Harper's is reprintedbelow:

THE CORNELL UNIVERSITYThe tumultuous excitement of these

closing days of the War has preventedattention to an act which, in the more tran-quil times of the future, will be estimatedwith all the honor it deserves. Mr. EzraCornell, senator from the Twenty-fourthDistrict, in this State, proposes to givefive hundred thousand dollars immediatelyto found a university, worthy the name, atIthaca. Mr. White, Senator from theOnondaga District, one of our mostexcellent scholars and most efficientpublic men, has introduced a bill into theSenate establishing the University, andappropriating to it the income of the saleof public lands granted to this State byCongress by the act of July, 1862.

The importance of Mr. Cornell's gift toall the higher interests of the State is soapparent that the Board of Regents ap-pointed a committee to visit the People'sCollege at Havana, to which the proceedsof the grant had been previously appro-priated, for the purpose of ascertainingwhether that college did now conform orwas likely within the limited time offive years to conform to, the conditionsof the grant. The committee visited thePeople's College, made a careful investiga-tion of its condition through the testimonyof its officers and neighboring friends, andreported that it did not now conform tothe requirements of the law. They furthersubmitted the testimony from which itcould readily be inferred whether it waslikely to conform to them within the time.

No candid man can read the testimonywithout seeing that there is no reasonwhatever to believe it can do so. ThePeople's College is apparently a smallinstitution with no other prospects thansuch as may arise from the fund under theAct of 1862. It consists of a college build-ing and a hundred acres of land; furnitureto the amount of a thousand dollars, and alibrary of two thousand volumes made upof Congressional documents, Pacific Rail-road reports, and documents of the Stateof New York. .It has no philosophical or

chemical apparatus, nor shops, tools,machinery, nor fine buildings, farmingimplements or stock, although the ex-pressed intention of the U. S. grant wasthe fostering of practical mechanics andagriculture. Instruction in the collegiatedepartment has not begun, and there areabout a hundred and fifty students in thepreparatory school.

Whoever has the interests of the mostgenerous education at heart cannot doubtthat the union of the grant of the UnitedStates with the gift of Mr. Cornell willsecure a foundation for a university worthyof the State; and that the advantage of onecomprehensive, amply equipped institu-tion is greater than that of a dozen smallerand staggering schools. In such a move-ment concentration is power. The char-acter of a truly noble university attractsthe most eminent men to its chairs, andthey in turn attract the multitude of stu-dents. Who can estimate the value ofAgassiz, for instance, to the University atCambridge? Yet only an institution soliberally endowed could secure the ser-vices of a savant so eminent against theimperial competition of Europe. In everyway the increase of resources increases theopportunity and the usefulness of a col-lege, and we can see no public reason what-ever in the interest of education, why thegrant under the law of Congress should notbe transferred to the Cornell University.

RHODES SCHOLAR ELECTIONSThe 1929 election of Rhodes scholars

will be held on December 7, and Cornellstudents must file their applications withthe secretary of the State Committee ofSelection before October 19, according toPresident Frank Aydelotte of SwarthmoreCollege, American secretary to the RhodesTrustees. A scholarship entitles theholder to two years' study at Oxford. If,at the end of the second year, the scholarpresents an approved plan for an additionalyear of study, the trustees will extend thescholarship for a third year.

Scholars elected December 7 will go toOxford in October, 1930. Informationand application blanks may be obtainedfrom the secretary of the University orfrom President Aydelotte's office atSwartmore College.

Cornell men who have held Rhodesscholarships are Warren E. Schutt '05,Russell H. Peters '20, Alexander B. Trow-bridge, Jr., '20, Robert E. Burk '22,William D. P. Carey '23, George R. Pfann'24, and Eugene W. Goodwillie '27. EdwinR. Casady, Jr., Grad., will go to Oxford inOctober, 1929.

Recovery of members of the baseballsquad injured in the autobus crash nearQuantico, Va., on April 4 seems assured.John D. Russell '29 of Ben Avon, Pa.,manager of the team, will be confined tothe Quantico Naval Hospital for at leasttwo months. He suffered a compoundfracture of the leg and minor injuries.

John Haddock, battery coach, returnedto Ithaca April 8, and has resumed hiscoaching duties, although his fracturedshoulder is still heavily bandaged. He re-turned from the Quantico Hospital, wherehe was taken after the crash.

The return of Frank Sheehan, veterantrainer, who was taken to the WashingtonEmergency Hospital after the crash, isexpected soon. Sheehan suffered abroken arm. The first fear that he hadreceived a fractured skull was removed bya complete examination.

The rest of the squad returned to IthacaApril 7, many of the men suffering minorcuts and bruises. Practice sessions, how-ever, were not called off, and the teamwent to Columbus, Ohio, for its game onApril 13 with Ohio State University.

Further details of the accident werelearned on the team's return to Ithaca.The autobus, owned by a Washingtontransportation company, was scheduledto arrive at Quantico about six o'clock totake the squad to Washington, where onthe following day the team was to meetGeorgetown University.

The bus was late in arriving, and thedriver put on speed to make up for losttime, and to get the squad over thethirty-four-mile trip to Washington. Ithad rained that day, and the roads wereslippery.

The* bus, going off the road, crashed intoa tree. It was badly damaged, but theopinion was expressed by members of thesquad that the sturdy construction of themachine saved many from more seriousinjury. The bus was a new brand, onlyrecently installed in service.

GARGOYLE, honorary society of the Col-lege of Architecture, has elected to mem-bership John M. Billings '30, North Man-chester, Ind.; George C. Bebb '31,Newark; Richard C. Guthridge '30,Springfield, Mass.; Lawrence B. Perkins'30, Evanston, 111.; and Thaddeus B. Hurd'27, Clyde, Ohio.

The Root of All EvilMoney of Her Own. By Margaret

Culkin Banning. New York. Harper.1928. 19.3 cm., pp. vi, 329. Price, $2.

The^theme of this story is the mischiefwhich money can do in human affairswhen the desire for it gets out of pro-portion.

Carol Ranger, whose passion for moneyis explained by an early childhood spent inpoverty, is a beautiful and interesting girl,capable of fineness and depth of feeling,thwarted only by this weakness which,under peculiar circumstances, all butbrings disaster.

Upon the death of her mother she wasadopted by a wealthy uncle, whose ob-session was a fear of losing the wealth hehad accumulated by shrewdness and hardwork.

He dies suddenly leaving a will by theterms of which his niece inherits his fortune"on condition that she shall retain controlof her own property and not give it, inwhole or in any part, to her spouse, who-ever he may be. . ."

Philip Helm, the man Carol marries, isa fine chap, capable and lovable, perfectlyable to support his family according tostandards adapted to the salary he earns;further than that he is without personalfortune.~ΊjThe situation becomes a tangle ofmotives, maladjustments, and misunder-standings. The solution results in a storyof compelling interest.

The setting, that of the younger set inthe best families of a provincial city, makesa vivid background, with the usual cock-tails, high-power cars, and frantic questfor amusement.

In artistic contrast is the secondarytheme of the Swede, Benson, a poor manat the opening of the story and a year latera millionaire, whose wealth cannot charmthe young stenographer whose motherruns a boarding house and whose cleareyes and loyal heart alone seem to be ableto "see life steadily and see it whole."

Produce O'Neill Play

The Emperor Jones Added to Achieve-ments of Cornell Players—Assist

Dance Festival

The Cornell Dramatic Club has addedto its list of major productions EugeneO'NeiU's drama of negro phsychology,"The Emperor Jones." This was firstproduced by George Cram Cook at theProvincetown Theatre in New York."The Emperor Jones" is the play thatbrought O'Neill to the attention of thetheatre-going public. His reputation asperhaps the greatest playwright Americahas produced still rests on "The EmperorJones," "The Great God Brown," and"Lazarus Laughed." It is doubtful ifO'Neill has ever surpassed in sustaineddramatic power the picture of BrutusJones, emperor of some nameless island inthe West Indies gradually stripped of histhin coating of whiteman's civilizationduring one terrible night of flight throughthe jungle.

With its eight scenes, the first in thepalace of the emperor, the other seven atdifferent places in the great forest throughwhich Jones is fleeing to the sea, and thevarious hallucinations which visit thefear-crazed negro, "The Emperor Jones"presents unusual problems in staging.The settings were designed after plans byProfessor Alexander M. Drummond, di-rector of the Club and executed by thestage force in charge of Lawrence Voss '29

and William McCabe '29. The forestscenes, for which a plaster sky dome wasinstalled for Cook's production at theProvincetown Theatre, were effectivelymanaged by the use of trees and gauzedrops. A single setting was used for theforest scenes, the changes in place andtime being suggested by lighting differentportions of the set.

"The Emperor Jones" and a harle-quinade curtain raiser, "A Merry Death"were given four performances, two beforeand two after spring recess.

On March 22 and 23 the Department ofPhysical Education for Women and theDramatic Club produced jointly theannual dance festival. This year it wasthe story of Echo and Narcissus presentedin dance pantomime. The dances andmusic were supervised by Dorothy Bate-man '29 of the Department of PhysicalEducation, and the pantomime was ar-ranged and the production planned byProfessor Drummond. The forest settingswere conventionalized to harmoize withdance pantomime.

Two groups of one-act plays arescheduled for production April 19 and 20,and May 3 and 4. The plays include anoriginal Cornell play "Yeah? Variety" byGeorge Fass '29, "The Monkey's Paw" byW. W. Jacobs, "Station YYYY" byBooth Tarkington, "The Albany Depot"

by William Dean Howells, "Mary'sLamb" by Hubert Osborne, and "The

Villain in the Piece" by PercivaΓ Wilde.

Last year the Club maintained itsreputation as the most active LittleTheatre producing group in the country,staging six full-length plays, a revue, andthirty-one one-act plays in a total offifty-one performances. Fourteen thou-sand and thirty-nine people paid to see theClub's productions in 1927-8 and the box-office receipts were $11,516. The Club'sreceipts however, do not pay its runningexpenses. Royalties, scenery, and cos-tumes for production on the scale the Clubhas now reached leave the organizationunable to pay its direction staff. Forfurther expansion in production andfacilities for experimentation the Club is inneed of endowment.

THE ATHLETIC SURVEY

CONTROVERSIAL beyond anyalumni discussion within our recol-

lection, the present athletic situation isbeing studied very minutely by an alumnicommittee that seems adequate for thepurpose. Unquestionably there are alumnieverywhere who will deplore the fact thatthe survey committee on Saturday didnot hit upon a panacea for all athleticills that could be out into effect im-mediately.

The task of this committee, as we viewit, is not so simple. To sift the true fromthe untrue, and more particularly, to getthe grain of truth in the plethora of chaff,is no mean job to be handled casuallyover a week-end. We are inclined tocongratulate the committee on two countseven at this early stage. First, while thecommittee comprises seventeen mem-bers, apparently all seventeen are workingon the problem. Second, they have notyet reached a solution. Both pointsaugur well for the future of Cornell'sathletics.

We do not expect to enter into a dis-cussion of the problems of the committee.We believe them capable of handling theproblem with the help they have alreadyhad from the alumni and the public press.Nothing we could say would raise theboiling point, and this has certainly been

reached. If we have erred in this matter,we have done so with open eyes. It isdifficult to discuss the business of otherpersons without impertinence and withouthaving available for rejoinders space farbeyond our poor powers of expansion.The family washing might better be donein private.

In discussing the account of the meetingof this committee we do, however, wishto make one comment. The machine thatonce rolled 'em flat on cinder path, river,gridiron, or what have you, is missing inmany of its cylinders. We venture topredict that the committee will find thatit is not sufficient to change a few sparkplugs, use a different brand of oil or gas,or any such simple remedies. To re-store the machine to its pristine powerwill probably require adjustments andrepairs in many directions. We trust that,on the whole, the adjustments will beminor ones, and that we shall have togive up neither the machine itself northe desire to polish off our good friends,the opponents.

Special Appropriations by New York toAssist Development of Many

Activities

Farm bills recently signed by GovernorFranklin D. Roosevelt of New York Statewill benefit the Colleges of Agricultureand Home Economics by making fundsavailable for carrying on experimentalwork in these colleges.

One bill appropriates $13,000 for theGeneva Experiment Station for researchin certain insect pests. Another grants$5,000 to the College of Home Economicsfor research on the living costs on farms.

An appropriation of $150,532 is madefor new activities at the College of Agri-culture, including investigations on themuck soil of the State, the production,storage and diseases of potatoes, problemsinvolved in regional agricultural adjust-ment, the operation of city markets, co-operative marketing, aspects of ruralgovernment, and extension and develop-ment of the work in animal husbandry, in-cluding a new calf barn, extensive altera-tions in existing barns, larger maintenancefunds, and additions to the staff.

The bill also carries $10,000 for printingand a new editorial assistant. In additionto these special appropriations, the regularappropriation bills carried $29,000, a fundfor immediate needs, $21,000 for generalitems in the College of Agriculture, $7,950for Home Economics, and $26,260 for theGeneva Station.

GROUND for the new Brothers Collegebuilding at Drew Seminary, Madison,N. J., was broken on March 18 in thepresence of the two donors, Leonard D.Baldwin '92 and Arthur J. Baldwin '92.The building is to cost $500,000. TheBaldwin brothers, who provided theBaldwin Memorial Stairway on UniversityAvenue, Ithaca, have also given $1,000,000for an endowment for the new college.


The Week on the Campus

INTESTINAL warfare broke out onthe Campus last week, to the grief ofthose thinkers who had considered

collegiatism in Cornell extinct, and to thepleasure of those oldsters who hold thatclass warfare is a sign of academic health,and who recall tenderly the grim battles ofold time and the gorges running withblood. The occasion was the SophomoreSmoker, last Friday, in Willard StraightHall. The strategy was roughly that ofCaptain Parker at the Battle of Lexing-ton, 152 years ago next Friday. Thesophomores, advancing in single filetoward their objective, were obliged topass a large contingent of freshmen in am-bush by the entrance. The freshmen hadborrowed a fire hose from the City, to theCity's surprise; this was attached to ahydrant near by, and accounted for manycasualties. This heavy artillery wassupplemented by a corps of grenadiers,armed with stink bombs, eggs, and food-stuffs, largely vegetables. The ChemicalWarfare Division supplied a number oftear bombs, which vindicated the studyof chemistry as a practical science. Theinfantry advanced under an efficientbarrage, and engaged in hand-to-hand con-flict, in the course of which a number ofsophomores were completely stripped.

THE ungrateful role of the neutral wasplayed by a corps of C men and StudentCouncil members, who succeeded in pre-venting injury to the building itself. Forthis foresight the community is sincerelythankful, for the mural paintings and otherdecorations of Willard Straight Hall mustnot be imperiled by youthful ebullience.

THE FRESHMEN are to hold their banquetnext Saturday evening. Formal dress willnot be much worn.

BUT TO COME BACK to the SophomoreSmoker. When the ranks were somewhatreformed within the building, the partywas addressed by Tell S. Berna '12, for-mer intercollegiate two-mile champion,and by Andrew J. Whinery Ίo, both ofwhom are members of the Committee ofSeventeen appointed to examine the stateof athletics. Mr. Berna carried on the dis-cussion of the relations of students andalumni, to which reference has alreadybeen made in these pantoscopic columns."The first business of the Cornell man isto become a cultured gentleman. We donot want coal-heaver athletes. We wantmen with a keen interest in life, in whichgraduation is only a forward step." Hedefended the necessity of obtaining highmarks, since the world of business re-quires such a fight to make good today.''Intercollegiate victories.are so hard toget they sometimes seem not worth while.But nothing develops a man's character aswell as athletics in addition to class roomwork. The man who does better than hisprevious best to win a track meet has donesomething."

THE Sun too has something to say aboutus alumni. To be sure, what it says isjust the reverse of what it said a couple ofweeks ago; but remember that on themorning that the letter of Herbert D.Mason Όo was printed the entire board re-tired. Anyway, the Sun concludes;"Intelligent alumni investigation ... ishighly desirable in brushing up on possibleadministrative injustices to which theaverage student is too rushed to give dueattention."

THE FIRST professional drama to playin Ithaca since 1924 (not counting a cer-tain stock company, which, to be sure,did its best and certainly not counting"Abie's Irish Rose") was put on at theStrand last Tuesday. It was a road com-pany of "Rio Rita." Somewhat to ourastonishment, it was just as good as theNew York production, and in somefeatures better. Apparently the managershave discovered what we could have toldthem long ago: that the collapse of theRoad is chiefly due to the fact that theroad companies were rotten, and that theRoad may be revived by the simple pro-cess of giving the Road its money's worth.Every one of the 1600 seats at the Strandwas taken; the management should bewell rewarded for its daring. Thank you,Mr. Saperstein.

THE DRAMATIC CLUB repeated itssuccessful bill of a few weeks past: RobertHarper '30 in "The Emperor Jones," andEvreinov's "A Merry Death."

THE FOURTH ANNUAL Barnyard Ball washeld in the Old Armory on Friday, April 12.

GORDON WATKINS of the Ithaca PianoSchool gave a memorable piano recital inWillard Straight Hall on Sunday after-noon, April 14.

INTERNATIONAL WEEK on the lectureplatform. America won with NormanThomas, Socialist candidate for Presidentof the United States, who spoke to theLiberal Club on April 10 on "Why WeNeed a Labor Party in the United States,"and to the Rotary Club on "Why FreedomMatters" (Do you hear me, Mr. Menc-ken?); Professor Emerson H. Swift of theDepartment of Fine Arts of Columbia onApril 10 on "The Great Church of St.Sophia"; and Walter L. Gregory ofChicago, who addressed the Hotel Adminis-tration students. Germany was second,with Professor A. Sommerfeld of the Univ-versity of Munich, on April 10 and ntalking "About Wave Mechanics" and"The Electron Theory of Metals," andDr. Theodor Rehbock of Karlsruhe, wholectured on hydraulic experimentation.France, Austria, and India tied for third,with Dr. Frantz Funck-Brentano, his-torian, on April 12, discussing in Frenchthe life of the Revolution and the Empireas depicted by David and Prud'hon, Pro-fessor Paul L. Dengler of Vienna on April

ii on "The Spirit of New Education inAustria," and Mme. Sarojini Naidu onApril 9 on "Interpretations of the ModernIndian Renaissance."

THE THIRD ANNUAL conference forGrange lecturers went on at the College ofAgriculture last week.

ALPHA EPSILON PHI has won a cup forhaving the highest scholastic average ofthe sororities, tallying 79.4468 per cent.When you reflect that this means practi-cally a B average for a whole sorority,and that the other sororities were not farbehind, you can draw some conclusionsabout the intellectual apathy of youth.

THE WOMEN'S Fencing Team met theNew York Fencers Club in PrudenceRisley Hall last Saturday.

A LACK AW ANN A student special brokeall records to New York just before vaca-tion. It left Ithaca at 4.35 p. m. andarrived in Hoboken at 9.52^, making thetrip (to save you the trouble) in 5 hoursand ιyj^ minutes.

SPRING DAY this year is May 18. Themotif has been announced as CommodoreByrd's Trip to the South Pole. The themewill be appropriate, if the weather be hotor cold. One thing about it, it leaves littlescope for the one usual, and somewhatwearisome, recourse of undergraduatehumors: male nudity.

Suddenly, out of a spring sky . .An Advertisement of the

American Telephone and Telegraph Company

ALL was well on the telephone fronton April 27, 1928. Suddenly, out of aspring sky, rain began to fall overcentral Pennsylvania. As night cameon this turned into a furious storm of sleet,snow and wind. Inside of 48 hours, 3700telephone poles were down. Seven thousandmiles of wire tangled wreckage. Thirty-nineexchanges isolated. Eleven thousand tele-phones silent.

Repair crews were instantly mobilized andsent to the scene. From Philadelphia 47 crewscame. Other parts of Pennsylvania sent 13.New Jersey, 6. New York, 4. Ohio, 6. Mary-land and West Virginia, 12. In record time,looo men were stringing insulated wire andtemporary cables along the highways, onfences and on the ground.

Within 72 hours the isolated ex-changes were connected and the11,000 telephones back in service.Then, while the temporary construc-

tion carried on, neighboring Bell System ware-houses poured out all needed equipment, newpoles were set, new crossarms placed and newwire and cable run.

In any crisis there are no state lines in theBell System. In all emergencies of flood orstorm, as well as in the daily tasks of extend-ing and maintaining the nation-wide network,is seen the wisdom of One Policy, One System,Universal Service. Better and better telephoneservice at the lowest cost is the goal of the BellSystem. Present improvements constantlygoing into effect are but the foundation forthe greater service of the future.

Fine Enough for AllInterior Work

FOR interior as well as for ex-terior use, architects use Indiana

Limestone. The all-stone exterior,so much admired, is not prohibitivelyexpensive. New methods and largescale production of Indiana Lime-stone make this beautiful, light-colored natural stone moderate incost.

The texture of Indiana Limestonevaries from the almost invisibly fineto rather granular. This stone, whilenot too hard to be cut with thegreatest ease into any i equiredshapes, yet is tough enough to bedeeply undercut and carved into

the most delicate ornament andtracery. When exposed to the airfor a time in a building, it becomesseasoned and is then quite hard andpractically everlasting.

Le't us send you our illustratedbooklet showing samples of schooland collegiate buildings of the bet-ter type. Many trim as well as all-stone buildings are shown in itspages. A reading of this bookletwill give you a clear picture of whatis being done the country over incollege buildings. For the booklet,address Dept 810, Service Bureau,Bedford, Indiana.
