THE Sixtieth Annual Meeting of the Alumni Association of Haverford College was called to order on Friday, June 16, 1916, at 6.00 P. M., in the Union Auditorium, with the President, Charles J. Rhoads, '93, in the chair. It was carried that the roll call and the previously published minutes be omitted from the order of business.

THE THOMAS WISTAR BROWN LIBRARY

It was unanimously carried that the following minute be adopted by the Association with regard to changing the name of the College Library.

The following, having received the cordial approval of President Sharpless, Professor Allen C. Thomas, '65, Librarian, and many other Alumni, will be submitted at the Annual Meeting:

"Whereas, the late T. Wistar Brown, President of the Board of Managers of Haverford College, was for over half a century a continuous and most generous benefactor of the institution; and

"Whereas, the present Library building was built in 1864 by members of this Association, and then named Alumni Hall; and

"Whereas, large additions have been added to the building, principally through the generosity of T. Wistar Brown, and also large endowments have been given by him for the benefit of the Library:

" Therefore, be it resolved by the Alumni Association of Haverford College (the Board of Managers concurring) that this building and its additions be named the 'Thom- as Wistar Brown Library'; that a suitable Memorial Tablet be placed therein, and also the best obtainable portrait of him be hung there."

Upon the opening of Roberts Hall thirteen years ago,

6 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

Alumni Hall automatically ceased to exist, the library absorbing the entire building and its extensions; and it has since been known as "The Library."

REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

Your Executive Committee respectfully reports as follows : —

The regular business of the Association has received careful attention from the committee and has been conducted, we hope, in a manner satisfactory to the Association.

The Twenty-ninth Annual Dinner of the Association was held at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel on Saturday evening, January 29th, 1916. It was attended by about two hundred persons, somewhat less than last year. The Association is indebted to the following speakers for addresses: —

President Sharpless; Dr. Charles Alexander Richmond, President Union College, Schenectady, New York; Dr. Walter Rauschenbusch, Professor of Church History, Rochester Theological Seminary, Rochester, New York.

We have again to report a deficit on account of the dinner, as shown by the Treasurer's Report, of $146.40, and in this connection would call the attention of the Association to the Treasurer's Report and the need of further support from the body of Alumni to the finances of the Association.

As was recommended by last year's committee, the Bellevue-Stratford has again been engaged for the last Saturday in January, 1917 (that is January 27th), and we recommend that next year's committee do the same for 1918.

The arrangements for Alumni Day have been com- pleted by a special committee and it is hoped that

HAVERFORD COLLEGE

improvement has been made in preparing and serving the supper and that the members of the Association will assist this effort by passing out of the dining-room where the supper is to be served as soon as they obtain their portions.

Your secretary has recently communicated with the secretary of the New England Association, the New York Association, the Baltimore Association and the Chicago Association, from whom the attached reports of the activities of these associations have been obtained.

The chairmen of all committees have been requested to prepare reports for this meeting.

The deaths of the following matriculates have come to the notice of the secretary during the past year: —

HAVERFORD SOCIETY OF MARYLAND FOR THE YEARS 1915-16

HEN the Society was organized more than a decade ago, the men responsible for the or- ganization had in mind two distinct purposes which the Society should attempt to fulfil. The first purpose was social. The proposed Society was to be a means of assembling all Haverfordians in the immediate vicinity for their own personal benefit and pleasure, with Haverford, its mutual friendships and memories, the background and binding force. The second purpose was that of furnishing a co-operative organization to make more effectual the spreading of the name of Haverford. These two purposes still subsist and the activities of the present year were suggested and pro- moted with a view to their continuance. The Society has served still another purpose which is both a by- product of, and an incentive for, the two first mentioned. This by-product is the keeping of the Alumni, old and young, in closer touch with the College.

The annual dinner of the Society was held at the University Club in Baltimore on March 31st. There were some thirty-five persons present. The head- masters of two of Baltimore's preparatory schools, Mr. Eugene R. Smith, of the Park School, and Mr. Woodruff Marston, of the University School for Boys, attended the dinner and afterwards spoke to the members of the Society on educational topics. The fathers of several prospective Haverfordians had also been invited, and attended the dinner. Dr. Richard M. Gummere, of the College Faculty; Frank W. Cary, of the Senior Class, and Douglas Waples, '14, were the other speakers. The selection of the speakers and guests was made in obvious reference to the purposes of the Society. With Dr. Henry M. Thomas as toastmaster, the evening was

HAVERFORD COLLEGE 9

conducted to the satisfaction of all who attended. The Baltimore quartette and a Stieff pianola were called upon to entertain the diners. Among the most enthu- siastic diners present were two members of the Society, who, though not Haverfordians, are the fathers of five Haverfordians and who, to quote one of them, were "always Haverfordians when the hat was passed."

At the conclusion of the dinner, a business meeting was held, at which it was voted to offer a scholarship of two hundred dollars to a boy prepared in some Maryland school.

Dr. William R. Dunton, Jr., '89, for many years the Secretary-Treasurer and moving spirit of the Society, was elected President for the ensuing year.

On the 28th of April, the Cap and Bells Club gave " All-of-a-sudden Peggy," their annual play, under the auspices of a committee of the Society, at Lehmann Hall in Baltimore. The play was splendidly given and largely attended. The statistics of the occasion are significant. There were three hundred and fifty people present, including perhaps fifty schoolboys ; there were one hundred patronesses; the Baltimore newspapers published fifteen "write-ups" before and after the play, and two "cuts" of this year's cast. The evening was a most enjoyable one, and its success was due to the time and energy which the members of the committee ex- pended in loyal co-operation to make it so.

The Scholarship Committee is now actively engaged in distributing its propaganda and expects to have a candidate ready for entrance to Haverford next Septem- ber. It is working in conjunction with Dr. Richard M. Gummere, of the Alumni Extension Committee. Respectfully submitted, Hans Froelicher, Jr., '12,

Secretary- Treasurer. 28 E. Mt. Vernon Place, Baltimore.

REPORT OF THE HAVERFORD NEW YORK SOCIETY

EVERY month there has been an informal luncheon of the Haverford New York Society. These have been held usually at The Machinery Club, 50 Church Street, and occasionally uptown. Any Haverfordians in New York City on the first Wednesday in each month are cordially invited to attend the lunch- eon. The place and hour can be determined by com- municating with the New York secretary.

The annual dinner of the New York Society took place on March 22nd at the Columbia University Club. Covers were laid for sixty-one. David S. Bispham, '76, was toastmaster. The speakers of the evening were President Sharpless; Thomas Mott Osborne; R. M. Gummere, '02; Christian Brinton, '92, and W. W. Comfort, '94. The speeches were gracefully com- plemented by musical contributions from Mr. Alberto Jonas, pianist; Mr. Arthur Hartman, violinist, and Mr. Bispham. Officers were elected as follows: President, Frank H. Taylor, '76 (resigned because of continued absence from New York City) ; Vice President, A. S. Cookman, '02; Secretary-Treasurer, John D. Ken- derdine, '10, Care McClure's Magazine, 251 Fourth Ave., New York.

At the dinner, announcement was made of the estab- lishment of a scholarship of $200 to help cover tuition and board for a year at Haverford of a graduate of a school in or around New York. This scholarship will be awarded after competition. It is hoped that this scholarship can be renewed annually.

An entirely new feature was introduced into this year's program of the New York Society. On May 19th, at the Columbia University Club, there was

HAVERFORD COLLEGE 11

held for the first time a joint smoker of the New York Alumni of Haverford and Swarthmore. The feature of the evening was an illustrated talk by Felix M. Morley, '15, describing the work done by the Friends' Ambu- lance Unit in Belgium. Eighteen Swarthmoreans and fourteen Haverfordians were present. The smoker came at the end of a day of athletic competition between the New York Societies of the two colleges. A golf foursome from each had spent the day at a country club in the Westchester hills. Swarthmore was victorious by the following scores: —

Doughten, H. '06, and E. Rossmaessler, H. '01, de- feated Geddes.S. '05, and Turner, S. '93, 4 up and 3 to go.

Merritt, S. 77, and Smith, S. '05, defeated Wood, H. '96, and Ferris, H. '85, 6 up and 5 to go.

Turner, S. '93, defeated Doughten, H. '06, 1 up.

Geddes, S. '05, defeated E. Rossmaessler, H. '01, 4 up and 3 to go.

Merritt, S. '77, defeated Ferris, H. '85, 2 up and 1 to go.

Smith, S. '01, defeated Wood, H. '96, 3 up and 2 to go.

Tennis teams from the two societies competed in the afternoon, with the following result: Haverford, 4; Swarthmore, 1.

Spaeth, H. '05, and Kenderdine, H. '10, defeated Peaslee, S. '07, and Taylor, S. '03, 6-4, 3-6, 6-4.

Kitchen, H. '09, defeated Hoadley, S. '02, 6-4, 1-6, 6-4.

Kenderdine, H. '10, defeated Griest, S. '04, 6-1, 9-7.

Peaslee, S. '07, defeated Spaeth, H. '05, by default.

A silver cup was awarded to each winning team and it was suggested that the competition in each sport be annual. Plans were also discussed for some form of joint activity preceding the Haverford-Swarthmore football game next November.

Any Haverfordians moving to New York, either

12 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

temporarily or permanently, are requested to notify the New York secretary.

Respectfully reported, (Signed) John D. Kenderdine, '10, Sec.-Treas. of Haver for d New York Society. May 22nd, 1916.

REPORT OF THE CHICAGO ASSOCIATION

FOR the first time an organization of the Chicago Alumni was effected at a dinner held January 29th, the same time as the dinner of the General Association in Philadelphia, on which occasion a tele- gram from the President of the Alumni Association was read to the assembled guests in Chicago.

So far, of course, the Chicago Alumni are a very small organization. Some of the members do not reside in Chicago, but in the neighborhood of Chicago. We hold monthly meetings and we shall do all in our power to boost Haverford in and about Chicago. Men who make up this Association here, are all fellows who are engaged in active business and they have very little time for anything outside of their business, but they are all willing to help the organization along and do all they can for the College.

At the last monthly meeting we arranged that during the summer we would hold our monthly meetings on the golf links. The purpose of the Association is to give a Haverford College man who comes to live in Chicago, an opportunity to meet men with whom he has something in common. We neither have the members nor the money to undertake anything ambitious. Perhaps next year I may have some more definite statement to make.

A. C. Wild, '99,

Secretary, 1610 Chicago Title and Trust Building.

REPORT OF THE NEW ENGLAND ASSOCIATION

THE New England Association of Haverford Alumni held luncheons, at the Hotel Essex in Boston on the first and third Saturday of each month from December to April. These were quite well attended throughout, the average being ten. College matters of interest were discussed and we often had letters from some of the Faculty to be read, and always had copies of the Haverford News.

The Annual Dinner came Friday, February 18th, with an attendance of forty, which is the largest gather- ing of Haverfordians held in New England for some years. President Lowell spoke very nicely of his ex- perience with Haverford men, and President Sharpless was interesting as usual. The following officers were elected for next year:

President, Reuben Colton, '76; Vice-President, Charles T. Cottrell, '90; Vice-President, Henry Bailey, 78; Secretary and Treasurer, Earl S. Cadbury, '10, 72 Lincoln Street.

Yours very truly,

(Signed) Earl S. Cadbury,

Secretary.

REPORT OF THE FIRST MEETING OF THE

HAVERFORD ASSOCIATION OF CHESTER

COUNTY

{Written and circulated in July)

AT the West Chester Country Club on Thursday evening, June 15th, 1916, in answer to an invitation from Christian Brinton, '92, sixteen Haverfordians assembled. Letters had been sent to all Haverford men living in Chester County, so far as ascertainable, seventy-five in all. Fifty-two answers were received. Those present were encouraged at the successful turn-out on such short notice — five days.

Vincent Gilpin, '98, acted as temporary secretary, and Dr. Brinton, as temporary chairman, stated the object of the proposed organization to be the closer linking of local Alumni with each other and with the College, and the spreading of further information con- cerning Haverford.

The following constitution was suggested: —

The Haverford Association of Chester County

1. Be it resolved that this organization be known as "The Haverford Association of Chester County."

2. That its membership consist of all graduates, non-graduates and undergraduates of Haverford College who have lived in Chester County, Penn- sylvania.

3. That its aim be to promote more friendly rela- tionship between Haverfordians residing in this district and closer community of interest between them and current College activities.

4. That its officers comprise a President, two Vice- Presidents and a Secretary-Treasurer, to be elected annually.

16 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

5. That there be no initiation fee and no dues, but that current expenses be defrayed by voluntary subscription or limited assessment, as circum- stances may require.

6. That the Association meet in West Chester annually

on the second evening preceding Alumni Day.

This constitution was adopted without discussion, and the following officers elected for the ensuing year:

President — Christian Brinton, '92.

1st Vice-President — Lawrence J. Morris, '89.

2nd Vice-President — Jesse E. Philips, '87.

Secretary-Treasurer — Vincent Gilpin, '98.

Richard M. Gummere, '02, laid before the new Asso- ciation the work and aims of the Alumni Extension Committee, and spoke of similar committees of local graduate organizations elsewhere.

H. Pleasants, Jr., '06, gave recollections of the first undergraduate committee along these lines. Jesse E. Philips, '87; Percy S. Darlington, '90; Lawrence J. Morris, '89, and others added helpful suggestions for the management of the new society. The meeting then adjourned to the club dining-room, where Dr. Brinton had hospitably provided refreshments.

It was decided to add to the membership list former residents of Chester County now living elsewhere, and to mail a report of the proceedings and a list of the members to every one eligible to the society.

Vincent Gilpin, Secretary, 526 North Church Street,

West Chester, Penna.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE TO NOMINATE OFFICERS

RUFUS M. JONES, '85, chairman, recommended, on behalf of the nominating committee, the following officers : see page 3 of this Bulletin. The report was accepted and the nominations ap- proved by a viva voce vote, thus electing the gentlemen mentioned therein.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON ATHLETICS

AS mentioned in last year's report, the athletic activities of the College are all recorded in Dr. Babbitt's Year Book, and sent to our members through the publication of The Bulletin.

Football, soccer, cricket, gymnastics, track and tennis are the six sports supported by the Athletic Association. To these baseball has been added for next year, and, incidentally, this raises the annual tax per student $1.00, making the dues $10.00 for the support of athletics, which in the opinion of your committee should not be further increased.

Baseball was well supported without interfering with other sports, and the victory over Pennsylvania caused much enthusiasm and favorable comment.

The cricket season has been a successful one, and it is with regret we noted the weakness of the eleven of the University of Pennsylvania in this year's match.

The "Cricket Week" held in June, 1915, after Com- mencement, was a great success, and next year the series of games with local clubs will be repeated.

The football team played good football, but lost to Swarthmore.

Our soccer team won the Intercollegiate Championship.

Track, gymnastics and tennis were keenly supported.

Your committee, who have closely followed the year's contest, wish to congratulate the captains, the managers and their teams upon their unselfish devotion in training and their traditional Haverford good sportsmanship in games.

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph W. Sharp, Jr., '88,

Chairman.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON ALUMNI ORATOR- ICAL PRIZE

Haverford, May 8th, 1916. To the Alumni Association of Haverford College:

The annual contest for the Alumni prize in Oratory was held in the Auditorium of the Haverford Union on Friday evening, April 28, 1916, on the same evening as the con- test in public speaking, this year a debate, established by Alfred Percival Smith, of '84. There was a better audience than for a number of years, and the following members of your Committee were present: Alfred P. Smith, Edward W. Evans and the Chairman.

The Committee of Judges consisted of Howard H. Yocum and Robert Mayer, of the Philadelphia Bar, and S. E. Downs, Superintendent of Public Schools, Lower Merion Township. They and your Committee were entertained at dinner at the College.

The contestants and their subjects were as follows: Weston Howland, '17, "A Defence of Thomas Mott Osborne"; Alfred H. Stone, '16, "Shakespeare and Human Nature"; Edmund T. Price, '17, "The Curse of Efficiency"; Ulric Johnson Mengert, '16, "The Basis of International Understanding." The judges unanimously awarded the prize to Ulric Johnson Men- gert. The contestants all showed evidence of careful training by Professor Snyder.

On behalf of the Committee. Edward G. Hartshorne, '81,

Chairman.

At the conclusion of this report, which was accepted on motion, the medal was presented to Ulric J. Mengert, of the Senior Class.

REPORT OF THE ALUMNI QUARTERLY COMMITTEE

YOUR Committee respectfully reports three publi- cations of the College bulletin under the name of Alumni Quarterly ; the first was in October and contained the proceedings of the June, 1915, annual meeting, besides a few articles and book reviews. The second, published in January, included letters from four Haverford men engaged in relief and ambulance work in France and Belgium, and two articles in dis- cussion of the Plattsburg idea. The third number, which appeared in May, gave the proceedings of the mid-winter dinner and the dinners of the branch Alumni societies, besides other matters of undergraduate and Alumni interest.

Parker S. Williams, '94,

Chairman.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON HALL OF FAME IN CRICKET PAVILION

To The Alumni Association of Haverford College: During the past year your Committee has had pre- pared a tablet containing the names of the cricket eleven of 1915, and has procured and had framed and marked a photograph of the captain of that eleven. Both the tablet and photograph have been placed in suitable positions in the Pavilion.

The usual appropriation of not exceeding ten dollars for doing the same work for the ensuing year is asked. On behalf of the Committee,

A. G. SCATTERGOOD, '98,

Chairman.

24 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

The Matriculate Catalogue Committee reports as follows:

The Editor has pursued the work as continuously and rapidly as his other duties would permit, and nearly all the data sheets have been sent out. The replies have been moderately prompt and it may be said that about half the necessary material for the book is now in hand.

The subscriptions of one dollar which were asked for from those who wanted copies of the book are con- spicuously infrequent. Matriculates are betraying con- siderable bashfulness in this respect.

Your Committee suggests that $1,000 be raised to guarantee the printer's bill and also to reimburse the Chairman $200 which he advanced to the Editor on August 1st, 1915, in consideration of his giving time which he would otherwise have spent on remunerative work.

If eight hundred copies of the book are sold, your Committee feels confident that the enterprise will more than pay for itself, but $1,000 must be had in advance to pay the printer.

Respectfully submitted,

After considerable discussion _a..s to the means of raising this money, and an account of the method of preparing the 1900 edition, further subscriptions were called for, and many Alumni responded on the spot. It was moved, seconded, and carried, that the responsi- bility of the Committee be continued.

ALUMNI EXTENSION COMMITTEE

THE Committee wishes to call your attention to the fact that in presenting this report it covers only the first year of the five-year period of its work. It, therefore, desires you to note that the matters herein set forth are beginnings only and are now in process of development.

Dr. R. M. Gummere was appointed Secretary of this Committee in October, 1915, for the balance of the five- year experimental period.

He was later made Assistant to President Sharpless, and placed by the joint action of this Committee and Committee of the Board of Managers in active charge of the work of the Committee with offices at the College.

The following divisions of the work were then organ- ized:

1. Co-operation with Undergraduate Extension Com- mittee having charge of arrangements for the reception of visiting schoolboys and relations between schools in and about Philadelphia and their graduates in College.

2. Co-operation between Haverford graduates teaching in schools in and near Philadelphia, and this Committee.

3. Co-operation between the Alumni as a whole and this Committee.

4. Press notices.

5. Statistical work.

In connection with the Undergraduate Extension Committee, schoolboys of the vicinity have been given opportunities for seeing the College on appropriate occasions and under effective conditions.

Information in regard to the College and in regard to possible candidates in the various schools has been

26 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

exchanged between this Committee and the various Haverford graduates connected with the schools.

Representatives of this Committee have attended meetings of the Alumni Societies in other cities and explained the work of the Committee.

Individual members of the Alumni have been asked for and consistently given information regarding possible candidates for the use of this Committee. Individual Alumni have, without exception, responded to requests by the Committee for assistance in connection with effective dissemination of information to possible candi- dates in regard to the College.

News items in connection with the College and its activities have been given to the press in such form and at such times as have secured proper recognition.

Complete data regarding possible candidates, obtained by canvass of Alumni and other means at our disposal, have been compiled and are now in shape for efficient utilization.

Thorough distribution of information in regard to the College has been made in accordance with our records where it would appear to do the most good, as an instance of which we recently published an attractive booklet on the College.

In connection with the co-operation of the Alumni, we feel that the New York and Baltimore Scholarships just established will produce satisfactory results.

It has been the duty of this Committee, through its Secretary, to co-ordinate its various functions as above described in all ways compatible with the honor and dignity of the College, and we take this opportunity of thanking the Alumni as a whole for their assistance in this work.

Certain phases of the work as now outlined seem to demand the addition of two members to the Committee

HAVERFORD COLLEGE 27

and we, therefore, recommend that the Chairman be empowered to make such appointments.

In summary, the Committee feels that any diminution in the number or quality of applicants for admission at this time would have been charged to its account, and it is, therefore, the more pleased to report that the number who have made payment on account of entrance fees is much larger than usual, while the quality before the examinations appears to be satisfactory.

The Committee has instructed the Chairman to sub- mit this report, hoping for your favorable action thereon. Respectfully submitted, Winthrop Sargent, Jr., '08, Chairman.

The report of the chairman of the Haverford Exten- sion Committee having been accepted, and its work continued, the incoming President of the Alumni Asso- ciation was empowered to appoint new committees in due course. After some remarks by the President on the proposed Physics-Biology laboratory, for which funds are being raised, the meeting adjourned.

OPENING OF THE COLLEGE YEAR

THE College opened with about one hundred and ninety-five students, of whom sixty are Fresh- men and fifteen are admitted from other colleges to advanced standing. All special students of the Freshman Class were declined and no class ever entered with so few conditions.

The Faculty is unchanged except that Dr. Bolles re- tires, Dr. Spiers goes to Columbia, and Dr. Pratt takes a half year's absence for relief work in Belgium.

The new men are Dr. Joseph Seronde, of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania faculty, who is kindly permitted to give instruction to our French classes; Charles H. Liv- ingston, of Harvard, also in French, and Charles H. Abbott, of Brown University, in Biology.

The improved standing of Haverford among educa- tional institutions, the recent large additions to the endowment, the deepened interest among her Alumni and friends indicate that the College is about entering upon an era of enlarged usefulness and influence, that her numbers are likely to grow by moderate accretions, and, more important, that her improved scholarly life and character will make her degrees and endorsement more valuable with the years.

Isaac Sharpless.

THE NEW LABORATORY

Philadelphia, April 25th, 1916. Fellow Haverfordian :

The undersigned, recent Presidents of the Alumni Association, present the following for your consideration.

President Isaac Sharpless came to Haverford in 1875; since that time buildings and other improvements have been added, through the generosity of the Alumni and friends of the College, to the value of over three-quarters of a million dollars. During the same period the endow- ment funds, through bequests and gifts, have grown by an equal amount; this apart from the legacy of the late Jacob Paul Jones, from which over a million dollars has been realized.

In nearly all these matters the most potent force has been President Sharpless's judgment, influence and energy.

But beyond and above these material matters, we value his broad-mindedness and scholarship; and his life and character which have had so beneficent an influence upon hundreds of Haverfordians.

In the educational world he is esteemed and looked up to as are few other heads of colleges and universities.

It is thought that the time has fully come for a per- manent and adequate recognition of his life work for Haverford by the Alumni, to which everyone would con- tribute according to his ability. The President and man- agement consider that (except for a gradual increase in dormitory requirements) the College needs a building for the use of the Departments of Physics and Biology, with Museum "to round out its equipment." These two departments have for a long time had makeshift

30 HAVER FORD COLLEGE

quarters in the west end of Founders Hall and the former Gymnasium building. This latter building when the new Dining Hall was erected close to it was intended to be removed. It is not a part of Founders Hall, having been added at a later date. It is unsightly and detracts from its surroundings. Haverford's muse- um has for some years for the most part been boxed up and stored away for want of room.

Neither the principal nor income of the Jones Endow- ment nor of the other funds mentioned are available for building purposes. Tentative estimates for such a build- ing with equipment approximate a total cost of $100,000. It is proposed to raise this amount for an Isaac Sharp- less Hall, the planning and building of which will take two years.

About $30,000 has already been subscribed by a few individuals. But in order to obtain the large sum needed, every Haverfordian should accept the privilege here extended, and honor the College and President Sharp- less, as well as himself, by subscribing liberally.

Subscriptions may be made payable one-half on January 1st, 1917, and the remaining one-half January 1st, 1918.

ABSTRACT OF PRESIDENT RICHMOND'S COM- MENCEMENT ADDRESS AT THE COLLEGE JUNE 16, 1916

PRESIDENT RICHMOND took as his title, "The Higher Values of Education." He dis- cussed efficiency as the educational catch-word of to-day, and pointed out its dangers. The problem of efficiency depends upon our scale of values, knowledge of the difference between rudimentary things and things of importance at the present day. As evidenced in the modern problems in agriculture, engineering and busi- ness, the public utilities, in his opinion, were just as much those of nature as those of man's making. The same test applies to man. "Men, like things, have lower and higher values." It is the ideal rather than the utilitarian test that counts with man. The utilitarian cannot understand how a man can be a great benefactor and yet have nothing to give but beautiful ideas.

The most interesting question of the present day is, "Have modern inventions brought us any nearer to happiness?"

Coming to education, the real man of science knows that he is at one with the classicist because their ideas of values are correctly adjusted. "The Philistine idea of a university is a place where a man is taught, not how to distribute the bread of life, but how to corner the grain market." "A man's education is of no use to himself unless it is of use to someone else." " It takes education to see all these things. The demand for utilitarianism does not come from the man of science but from the man of small breadth."

32 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

The conclusion at which President Richmond arrived was that many American colleges, like Haverford, should stand out for liberal training, whether their graduates are preparing themselves for the cultural side or for the technical side of life.

BOOK REVIEWS

The Christian Basis of Government, By President Sharpless

IN these days of warfare and military hysteria, there is something in the strength of a Quaker who is both philosopher and historian, to make one hope that a little Gideon's band may be found that will save the nation.

The Quaker may have been a practical politician in Colonial Pennsylvania. We rather think he was. But he stood for fair dealing, for honesty and for good- will, and when the Quakers of the Pennsylvania As- sembly were unable to countenance the Governor's declaration of war, they refused, as a body, to take share in the Government.

More than a century and a half later, one of their descendants has analyzed the situation with rare good sense based on knowledge of the facts. The current number of The Journal of the Friends' Historical Society contains an article entitled, "Friends in Public Life." President Sharpless, its author, thinks that the Quaker will find more allies in an uncompromising attitude towards his principles than at any previous period of the world's history. He writes most forcibly: — "Here is the great problem of today for the Christian statesman who can maintain himself conscientiously in public life. He needs to show the nation that an aggressive policy of good-will, the absence of all design on the integrity or interests of others, the rigid enforcement of all treaties and conventions, the full comprehension of and respect

34 HAVER FORD COLLEGE

for the points of view and political and commercial interests of others, are worth more in maintaining peace than dreadnoughts or submarines, coast defences or standing armies."

The important aim for a Quaker of the present day is to turn the nation's thought into ethical rather than economic channels. This ideal is the keynote of Presi- dent Sharpless' article.

This book, by a member of the Class of 1882, is a credit to American scholarship. It is the work of a careful student, admirably equipped, and for the purpose of aiding the general Bible student it is superior to any other in its field, so far as is known. It is non-controver- sial and aims to state in clear, but scholarly language the results of modern research as affecting the Bible. The

tone and treatment are reverent. An analytical Table of Contents, an Index of Scripture Passages, and a full Index, render the volume easy of consultation, while 114 pages of illustrative cuts add clearness to the text. It should be borne in mind that the book is for the Sunday School student and general reader and so the use of technical terms is avoided. The author is to be congratulated on his success in being both scholarly and simple.

'85 "Concerning Prayer, Its Nature, Its Difficulties and Its Value," is the title of a series of essays (MacMillan, London, 1916) by ten English scholars and clergymen and one American, Rufus M. Jones. Dr. Jones writes on "Prayer and the Mystic Vision," defining mystical experience, illustrating it from the descriptions of both mystics and students of mysticism, and showing its relation to prayer and to all interior and first-hand religion. Silence and group worship are discussed as two of the conditions favoring this experience. The essay is noteworthy for its brief but clear definition of mysticism, for its interesting autobiographical quota- tions, and for its own picturesque style. The whole volume is one full of suggestion to any serious inquirer concerning prayer.

Discocotyle salmonis nov. spec, ein neuer Trematode an den Kiemen der Regenbogenforelle (Salmo ivideus) von Elmer Shaffer, Haverford College, Pa. Mit 10 Figuren-Zoologischer Anzeiger, Vol. 46, p. 257 — 271, 1916.

This paper, by E. Shaffer, of the Class of 1915, con- tains the results of some of the special biological work done by him during his senior year, and is a description of a parasitic worm which lives on the gills of the rain- bow trout. The worm sucks the blood of the fish, and inasmuch as all the trout examined, to the number of over a hundred, were infected by it and as many as thirty or forty were sometimes found on a single fish, it is highly probable it injures the trout and may often weaken them and cause their death. A similar worm belonging to the same genus lives on the European trout and is the cause of a high mortality among them. The author's description of the anatomy of the worm is much the most complete of any existing descriptions of similar parasites: it is a welcome and important addition to the knowledge of this class of worms which injure the trout culture in different parts of the world.

The W. B. Saunders Publishing Company announce that the book on Occupation Therapy by Dr. William R. Dunton, Jr., '89, has been widely adopted by the nursing profession. The volume treats of matters which may serve for the mental diversion of convales- cents and those suffering from chronic illnesses. The chapters on Hobbies, Psychology of Occupation, and the Mechanics of Recovery give basic principles which it is expected will appeal to the physician no less than to the professional nurse.

Christian Brinton, '92, has completed the official catalogue for the forthcoming American exhibition of the paintings of Ignacio Zuloaga, the Spanish artist. He will also lecture before the Washington Society of Fine Arts on "Contemporary Scandinavian Painting."

LETTER FROM AN ALUMNUS

420 South Station, Boston, Mass., 5-23-16. My Dear President Sharpless: —

I received by mail from home today the Alumni Quarterly for May, 1916, and have been greatly interested in its contents, particularly in your address at the Alumni banquet in January last. It has been a matter of great regret to me for many years that I have been unable to take part in the College reunions, but it seems to be unavoidable; in fact, I think the only reunion banquet I ever attended, I had to leave early to take a night train for some distant point. For many years I have been thrown into contact with men who represent the full fruit of "modern ideas" in edu- cation in nearly all parts of the United States, and every year I seem to agree more fully with your expres- sion of the idea of the College for the "atmosphere of scholarship rather than the atmosphere of professional- ism." It seems to me that the idea of vocational training with the object of pecuniary results has been carried to such an extent in this country that the trained mind of scholarship is in danger of being overlooked. For my own part, I have seen enough of the mental processes developed by different methods of education to be thankful for all the old-fashioned mental drill I ever had. If our country needs one thing more than another in the present crisis, it is the mind of the trained scholar, who, from his knowledge of general principles, knows that there is no short way out in national or private affairs.

40 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

I notice that you quoted an ancestor of mine whose name I bear, as being opposed to the principle of "backing out." Incidentally, it may interest you to know that that tradition has carried me through a good many hard cricket matches. Wishing you all success in your efforts to advance the interest of the College, and with kind personal regards, I am

Very sincerely yours,

George Ashbridge, '67.

UNDERGRADUATE NEWS OF THE SUMMER AND EARLY FALL

COLLEGE opened on September 28th with a Freshman class of sixty-one surviving after twenty per cent of the applicants had been rejected, the increase in numbers meaning therefore a raising rather than a lowering of entrance standards.

Undergraduate attention was immediately centered on football. Prospects looked gloomy at first. Ar- rangements for a training trip had fallen through and practice was more than a week later than usual in begin- ning. Five 'varsity linemen had graduated with last year's class, and Jim Carey left a vacancy in the back- field.

The men went out, however, with a determination to make up for lost time. On the day College opened there were three full teams on the field, and the following day nearly forty candidates reported, despite a steady cold rain during the whole afternoon. When an attempt is made to get out recruits, there will probably be more than enough material for four teams.

The team will be light, and to some extent inexperi- enced, but the men are full of the spirit of hard work. As lined up for the early scrimmages, Sangree was filling Carey's place at quarterback; Captain Ramsey was at fullback; Crosman and VanDam, halves; Chandler and Curtis, ends; Howland, center; Morgan, Sharp, Hayman, R. Moore, and Gilmour have been playing on the line.

The schedule: October 7, Stevens, at home; October 14, New York University, at New York; October 21, Delaware College, at Newark, Del.; October 28, Mary-

42 HAVERFORD COLLEGE

land Agriculture College, away; November 4, Franklin and Marshall, at Haverford; November 11, Dickinson, at Haverford; November 18, Johns Hopkins, at Balti- more; November 28, Swarthmore, at Haverford.

As for other events of the first week of College, the Sophomoies, though outnumbered sixty to forty, won the cane-rush by a score of twenty-five hands to five.

The Old Collection Room being no longer available, the Freshman entertainment was held in front of the grand-stand on Walton Field in the glare of automobile lights. It was the best managed show of its kind in several years.

Captain Gardiner called out soccer candidates on Monday, October 2, and practice was started in prepara- tion for the first game on October 20. The intercolle- giate series will be played during November and De- cember.

The plan to limit the number of extra-curriculum ac- tivities in which a student may take part will be put into effect this year. As decided by the Students' Association last June, the limiting will be at the dis- cretion of a committee consisting of the President of the College, the presidents of the Athletic Association and Students' Association, and three Faculty members.

The Athletic Association adopted in June a con- stitutional amendment recognizing baseball as a minor sport, the team's victory over Penn being a card in its favor. Carl M. Sangree was elected to captain this year's team.

In cricket, the College summer eleven won the Phil- adelphia cup, taking every match played in the series.

HAVER FORD COLLEGE 43

W. M. R. Crosman was chosen captain of this year's eleven.

Edmund T. Price was elected captain of the track team.

The Civic Club has been reorganized under the name of The Social Science Club, with W. C. Little, '17, as president. The work of teaching English to Italians has been taken over by the Y. M. C. A.

Haverford sent a delegation of thirty-one to the Student Y. M. C. A. Conference at Eaglesmere, Pa., during the latter part of June. Incidentally, Haverford won the baseball championship there in competition with the other college delegations of the Middle States.

ANNUAL REPORT

OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS

FOR THE YEAR 1915-1916

To the Corporation of Haver ford College:

On 4th mo. 16th, 1916, the College lost through death our venerated President of the Corporation and Chairman of the Board, T. Wistar Brown, who in personal service and financial help had been for many years her staunchest friend. In his memory the Board adopted the following minute at its meeting on 5th mo. 19th, 1916:

"Thomas Wistar Brown became a member of the Board of Managers of Haverford College in 1853 at the age of twenty-seven. For sixty-three years he has shown an increasing, and of late times, an absorbing interest in Haverford College. Since 1891 he has been President of the Corporation and of the Board.

"His benefactions to the College have amounted to more than three-quarters of a million dollars. For nearly every cause deemed wise by the managers he has liberally subscribed. Many of his donations of large amount have been paid quietly into the Treasury with the request that no public information should be given even to members of the Board. This was strikingly so in the case of the Moses Brown Fund for a Graduate Course in Religious Study, notification of which the Board has first received at this meeting.

7

HAVERFORD COLLEGE.

"His greatest interest was in the teaching of Biblical Literature, Philosophy and kindred subjects, and three of our valued teachers are practically sustained by funds donated by him. But physical equipment, scholarships and college deficits have also received his generous attention.

"But with this liberality he has never attempted to interfere unwisely in details. His conditions have been easily met and never burdensome, because they were drawn in the spirit of broad-minded scholarship.

"It is interesting to note that a man who has been in business since he was sixteen years of age should have had his main interest in the field of idealistic culture rather than in vocational or professional work, and should have been always foremost in urging Haverford to adhere to the lines of pure scholarship and spiritual nurture.

"He was a man of strong convictions but very tolerant of others; of bountiful generosity but within no narrow bounds and governed by wisdom and a sense of duty and responsibility; of great usefulness but allowing the recipients of his help liberty of action in administration; of simple, earnest, devout piety borne out by a consistent life.

"We who have had the privilege of working with him, appreciate his wise advice, his personal worth and his Christian solicitude, and shall ever hold him in affec- tionate remembrance."

The past year has been a notable one in the history of the college. The attendance has been the highest on record, 186, and additions to the funds have amounted to over $500,000, which is the largest of any year in the history of the college.

8

MANAGERS' REPORT.

On Commencement Day forty-three degrees were granted, being five Masters of Arts, eighteen Bachelors of Arts and twenty Bachelors of Science.

The college has again opened with the largest enroll- ment of its history with 194 students, being 8 more than last year. Of these, 72 are new students.

The rooms are well occupied, including accommodations for 16 students in two new sections of Lloyd Hall which were completed during last summer. One of these sections was the gift of Horace E. Smith, '86, in memory of his father and mother, Charles and Catharine Iungerich Smith; the other was provided for by numerous dona- tions by other friends of the college. Two new pro- fessors' houses have been built on College Avenue and rented to Dr. Kelsey and Associate Professor Brown, the cost being borrowed to be repaid by twenty per cent annual allowances in the budget.

The roads in the campus have been improved; the entrance doors to Roberts Hall have been enlarged, and the property of the college has, as usual, been well maintained.

The Board regretfully reports the loss from our faculty of Dr. A. G. H. Spiers, Associate Professor of Romance Languages, who has accepted a call to Columbia Univer- sity. His work will be divided between Charles Harold Livingston, Instructor in French, and Dr. Joseph Seronde, Associate Professor of French. During last year Dr. Henry J. Cadbury, Associate Professor of Biblical Literature, was allowed a leave of absence for the first half year for service at Earlham College.

With a view to carrying out the purpose as expressed in last year's report, of setting forth Haverford's advan-

9

HAVERFORD COLLEGE.

tages so as to increase the number of applicants for admission to the college, Associate Professor R. M. Gummere was appointed also Assistant to the President, and his efforts in this direction, aided by interested alumni, have been successful. While the number of students who succeed in being admitted shows only a slight gain above the recent normal increase, yet the numbers making application and taking the examinations are considerably larger, thus giving the college the much- desired opportunity for selection of the fittest.

During the year, the Board adopted rules covering faculty appointments, etc., which it is felt will work for the continuance of that mutual confidence between Board and faculty which happily has always existed at Haverford.

The Board has authorized for next year a Mexican Scholarship for full board and tuition as an expression of good will to that nation in the midst of its present diffi- culties, and as a practical measure of promoting peace in our international relations.

Through the gift of $1,000 by Daniel Smiley, the "Albert K. Smiley Fund" was founded, the income only to be available for the general purposes of the college.

Through bequest of Charles S. Hinchman the college has been informed that it will receive $10,000 par value in securities and cash, "the income to be used to increase the salary of the astronomical professorship so as to provide a suitable instructor in the ennobling study of the heavens."

Through the gift of Isaac Thorne Johnson, of the class of 1881, $5,000 was received to found the Isaac Thorne Johnson Scholarship Fund.

10

MANAGERS' REPORT.

Through the sale of land nearly $70,000 have been added to the Jacob P. Jones Endowment Fund.

Upon the death of T. Wistar Brown, there was added to the Mary Farnum Brown Library Fund $34,499.78 par value of securities and cash having an income of $1,445, the same having been an original gift of $20,000 made in 1908 with sundry subsequent gifts and accrued income, all of which the Treasurer at the request of the donor had held as Temporary Trustee for Haverford College.

Upon the death of T. Wistar Brown, the Treasurer also made announcement of the transfer to the corpora- tion of a fund which he had held as Temporary Trustee to be known as the Moses Brown Fund, named for T. Wistar Brown's father, who, as he wrote "was born at Dover, New Hampshire, in the year 1793; was named after Moses Brown of Providence, R. I., a far relative and close friend of his father; he died in Philadelphia in 1878." This fund was established by T. Wistar Brown "for a graduate Course in Religious Study in harmony with and supplementary to the teaching and study provided for by the John Farnum Brown Fund now used by the college." It had been started by him in 1906 with an original gift of $20,000, to which had been added many subsequent gifts totaling in all $229,395.53, which, with the accrued income added, brought the par value of the fund at the time of his death and its transfer to the college, to $372,821.91, carrying an income of $15,595. The Board hopes that plans for the carrying out of this large trust can be perfected in time for the college year 1917-1918.

The Board has learned that through bequests of the

11

HAVERFORD COLLEGE.

children of the late Gideon D. Scull, class of 1843, the college will receive a sum of possibly $150,000 for the purpose of providing instruction in English Constitutional History.

Other donations to the college amounting to $42,183.20 have been received during the year.

The debt of the college now amounts to $102,274.27, being $5,695.65 more than last year. All of this increase is due to the building of the two new professors' houses.

Benjamin H. Shoemaker, who has been a manager since 1880, resigned on 5th mo. 19th, 1916. To fill the vacancy thus created Henry Cope, of the class of 1869, was elected to serve until the annual meeting of the Corporation.

Upon the death of T. Wistar Brown, Charles J. Rhoads was elected President pro tern, by the Board, and has occupied the position until the present.

The Board desires to record its thanks to Haverford's many friends for their generous gifts, and its appreciation of the faithful services of the faculty and all others connected with the College.

By order of the Board.

Charles J. Rhoads, President pro tern. J. Henry Scattergood, Secretary.

Philadelphia, 10th mo. 9th, 1916.

PRESIDENT'S REPORT

To the Board of Managers:

The President reports the register of atten- Attendance dance of students during the year 1915-16 as 186.

For 1916-17 there are now entered 194, of whom 59 are Freshmen and 13 new admissions to the advanced classes.

The faculty has decided hereafter to admit no special students, unless over twenty-one years of age, who have not complied with the entrance requirements of regular students.

There were graduated in 1916, 43 students, of whom 5 received the degree of Master of Arts, 18 Bachelor of Arts and 20 Bachelor of Science.

Dr. Albert S. Bolles, who since 1897 has been Faculty Lecturer on Commercial Law and Banking, an**8 resigned in the middle of the year. Dr. Bolles, by his abundant knowledge, his genial disposition, his interesting power of lecturing and his unfailing spirit of helpfulness, has endeared himself to many Haverfordians, and carries with him the kindly feelings of all of us for a life full of literary activity and influence.

Dr. A. G. H. Spiers resigned his position as

13

HAVERFORD COLLEGE.

Associate Professor of French at the end of the year to accept the headship of the department of Collegiate French in Columbia University. A graduate of Haverford College and a Doctor of Philosophy of Harvard, he was amply fitted by scholarship, character and sympathetic relations to be a valuable member of our faculty and his leaving is a cause of regret.

To fill the place, Joseph Seronde, Ph.D. (Yale), through the courtesy of the University of Pennsylvania, where he is now Assistant Professor, has been appointed to take the advanced classes in French, and Charles H. Livingston, A.M. (Harvard), the balance of the work in French and the Spanish.

Dr. Henry S. Pratt, being invited to assist in the distribution of relief funds in Belgium, has been granted leave of absence for the first half year of 1916-17, and Charles H. Abbott, A.M. (Brown University), has been appointed to the temporary vacancy. Lectures The following lectures outside of the regular

The contribution of $500 for the care of the Donations trees on the grounds has been continued during the past year.

Two new sections of Lloyd Hall have been added during the summer. One of these was given by Horace E. Smith, '86, as a memorial to his father and mother — the other by a number of subscribers. The total cost was about $24,000.

A large number of the alumni have been helpful in generous gifts to the athletic equip- ment and coaching, also for scholarships and prizes.

A legacy from James R. Magee, '59, of $10,000, one from Elizabeth P. Smith of $1,000 and one from Albert K. Smiley, '49, of $1,000 have been received during the year.

Isaac Thorne Johnson, '81, has given us $5,000 to establish a scholarship to be held by students from the middle west.

A sum of about $30,000, added to the Mary Farnum Brown fund for library purposes by T. Wistar Brown and announced after his death, now comes to the use of the college.

From the same source comes to us a fund

17

HAVERFORD COLLEGE.

having a par value of $372,821.91 for graduate teaching in Biblical Study, Ethics and other philosophical sciences, history and kindred subjects.

These various donations and bequests during the year amount to $461,531.89 and constitute a series of notable memorials to the loyalty and good wishes of our friends. Some of these donors can not be thanked in person, but the college should gratefully appreciate the gifts of all of them by advancing the causes they had at heart. Library During the year ending 9th mo. 30th, 1916,

there were added to the library 2,605 volumes, of which 1,286 were bought, 779 were gifts from various persons, 19 were purchased for the William H. Jenks collection, 337 were periodicals and pamphlets bound, and 184 were from the United States Government "on deposit." The total number of bound volumes in the library on the above date was 69,460.

During the year 9,736 volumes were with- drawn for use outside the building. Of this number 5,481 (including "overnight" books) were withdrawn by students, 3,294 by members of the faculty and others connected with the college, and 961 by residents on the college grounds and others.

The funds now in possession of the college enable us to spend about $5,000 in books and periodicals. This requires an increased amount of expenditure for librarians and is rapidly

PRESIDENT'S REPORT.

filling the shelves. The Anna Yarnall Fund, which is for the library but not limited to the purchase of books, will, when received, enable us to relieve the college income of some of the burdens of salary and equipment. Our library, with shelves open to student use and a good catalogue system, should not be hamp- ered by any deficiencies of service or con- veniences in securing the highest efficiency.

Various colleges have in recent years adopted Tenure of rules regarding the tenure of office of their professors, the purpose being to secure them against unreasonable and sudden losses of position. Some of these are quite radical. The following, adopted by the Haverford Board on 5th mo. 19th, 1916, are very moderate. They are mentioned here so as to have them on record:

19

HAVERFORD COLLEGE.

"Unless otherwise specially arranged, the term of appointment of an Instructor of Haverford College shall be one year, of an Assistant Professor three years, of an Asso- ciate Professor five years, and of a Professor indefinite, subject to the regulations of the Pension Fund and the following clauses:

"No Professor should be discharged, and no Associate or Assistant Professor shall be discharged during his term of appointment, except after a conference between the Board and a committee of the faculty to be appointed by the faculty, in which conference the officer shall have an opportunity to present his case.

"Unless an Associate Professor shall receive one year's notice, before the last Commence- ment Day of his term of appointment, and an Assistant Professor one-half year's notice, it shall be considered that he is reappointed for a new term.

"The college shall not be liable for any salary after the discharge or discontinuance of an official.

"The term of the present officers shall all begin with the college year 1916-1917.

"The Librarian shall be assigned to one of the above classes and these rules shall apply to him." College The reception of the Moses Brown Fund

PRESIDENT'S REPORT.

college. It means the appointment in the near future of two or three men of the highest scholastic and character attainments, who will be likely to remain some years at the college. The selection can not be made too carefully. If the right sort, they will add greatly to our collegiate standing and useful- ness. The good salaries which we can afford to pay and the moderate tasks likely to be assigned should attract men, not only sym- pathetic with the objects sought by the donors to be obtained, but also able to spread our scholastic reputation and have a large influence upon the individual student and the internal life of the group.

This ought to react upon other departments, aiding our undergraduate work, possibly by replacing some money by which to add to its resources, certainly by the stimulus which really great scholars spread around them.

If these results can be secured it looks as if a new era of widening and deepening influence would open for Haverford. But in the mean- time several new and serious problems will have to be solved.

I cannot omit this opportunity to express my sense of personal loss in the death of the late President of the Corporation. For several years, with constantly increasing respect, I have noted his deep concern for the abiding prosperity of Haverford, on the lines laid down by its founders and adhered to through

much sacrifice by the best of its friends in the past. Not only his means but many of his thoughts have been turned in this direction. All that he has done for the college has been the result of deep conviction. His final benefactions have come after hours and years of profound consideration of the problems involved. Personal considerations had no weight, only a serious wish to advance as best he could the cause of consecrated Quaker scholarship. His life, as well as his gifts, creates a sacred inheritance for our future guidance.

HAVERFORD COLLEGE

HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION

Haverford College was founded in 1833. It owes its origin to the insight and energy of a few members of the Society of Friends from Philadelphia and New York, who, in the spring of 1830, conceived the idea of founding an institution for education in the higher branches of learning. Its object, in the words of the founders, was "to combine sound and liberal instruction in literature and science with a religious care over the morals and manners, thus affording to the youth of our Society an opportunity of acquiring an education equal in all respects to that which can be obtained at colleges."

The founders were incorporated in 1833 under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania into the Haverford School Association, a body now known as the Corporation of Haverford College. This corporation elects a board of managers for the control of its affairs and for the administration of its funds. For the founding of the school sixty thousand dollars was raised; but the sum proved insufficient for its maintenance, and for many years the financial deficit was met by liberal subscrip- tions of friends.

From 1845 to 1848 the school was closed in order to allow the funds to accumulate and to give time for the collection of an endowment. Since that time, by a num- ber of generous bequests and donations, the amount of invested funds yielding interest has been increased to nearly two million dollars.

HA VERFORD COLLEGE

The first building of the College was Founders Hall, erected in 1833. The Observatory was built in 1852, and enlarged in 1883. Alumni Hall was built in 1863, and enlarged in 1898 and 1912 to meet the growing needs of the Library. In 1877 Barclay Hall, a dormitory, was erected by friends of the College. The Mechanical Laboratory was established in 1884, and was provided with a new building in 1890; this was burned down in 1896, and Whitall Hall, a new three-story structure, was built. The Biological Laboratory was established in 1886; Chase Hall, for lectures and recitations and the Physical Laboratory were built in 1888. The Cricket Shed was erected in 1893. In more recent years during a period of rapid development made possible largely by the general and unfailing cooperation of the alumni, the following additions have been made to the College equip- ment: in 1899, the Logan and Norris sections of Lloyd Hall, a dormitory; in 1900, a large and well equipped Gymnasium; in 1903, Roberts Hall, the gift of Lucy Branson Roberts, with College offices and a large audi- torium; in 1903, Merion Hall, a dormitory, remodeled from the old Haverford Grammar School building; in 1905, an additional wing to Founders Hall for dining halls and kitchen; in 1906, a permanent building for the heating and righting plant; in 1907, the enlargement of Merion Hall; in 1909, the Haverford Union, a building presented by Alfred Percival Smith, '84; in 1910, the Chemical Laboratory; in 1912, the Morris Infirmary, given by John T. Morris, '67; in 1913, a new section of Lloyd Hall, given by the estate of the late Justus C. Strawbridge, and a concrete grandstand, the gift of Horace E. Smith, '86; in 1916, the Smith section of Lloyd Hall, from the same donor, and the Kinsey section.

HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION

In addition to these College buildings there are a number of residences on the grounds which are occupied for the most part by professors.

The College has a pleasant and healthful location in the township of Haverford, Delaware County, Pennsylvania, nine miles west of the center of Philadelphia. It is acces- sible by the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad and by the Philadelphia and Western Railway. The selection of this site is thus described by the first managers: "We wished to procure a farm in a neighborhood of unques- tionable salubrity — within a short distance of a Friends' meeting — of easy access from this city at all seasons of the year . . . recommended by the beauty of the scenery and a retired situation." And they reported that they had purchased for the sum of $17,865 "an oblong tract of 198^ acres . . . nearly south of the eight mile stone on the Lancaster Turnpike." This property has since been increased to two hundred and twenty-five acres with an estimated present value of over one and one- half million dollars. While the greater part is retained as farm and woodland, a lawn of sixty acres was long ago graded and tastefully planted with trees and shrubs by a landscape gardener, so that the natural beauty of the location has increased with passing years. The grounds include four fields for cricket, American Rugby and association football, a running-track, six tennis courts, and a pond for skating.

Parallel with its material growth there have been changes in the inner life of the College which have affected the methods of administration rather than the essential principles on which the institution was founded. It has gradually increased in number of students but still enjoys the advantages of a small college. From the first it gave

HAVERFORD COLLEGE

instruction of collegiate scope and grade. Accordingly in 1856 the name was changed from school to college and the right to confer degrees was granted by the Legis- lature. In 1861 the preparatory department was abol- ished. General courses are now given in arts and science. The generous endowment for salaries and pensions enables the College to maintain a faculty of unusual size in proportion to the number of students, and to expend for the instruction, board, and lodging of each student about twice the sum which he pays.

In accordance with the modern ideals of religious and moral education, the students enjoy ample liberty, safe- guarded by their wholesome physical life, by the traditions of the College, and by the intimate association with their professors and fellow-students. The deep religious spirit bequeathed by the Quaker founders has been carefully cherished, and high ideals of life and conduct are main- tained, but in the admission of students and in the appointment of instructors there are no denominational distinctions. The aims of Haverford have been gradually developing and its function is becoming more and more clear — "to encourage the growth, among a limited num- ber of young men, of vigorous bodies, scholarly minds, strong characters, and a real religious experience."

ADMISSION

Candidates for admission to the Freshman class shall make application on a blank which will be furnished on request, by the President of the College. (See page 90.)

Each candidate shall also present a certificate of char- acter from the principal of the school last attended. Principals are requested to write fully as to the character, habits, and ability of applicants. Such statements will have due weight in determining the question of admission.

The subjects which may be presented for admission are divided into two groups in accordance with the fol- lowing table. The figures given represent ''units" ac- cording to the system of the Carnegie Foundation.*

Group I (required of all candidates) :

SB? }(**** »

Algebra A (Mathematics A 1) Algebra B (Mathematics A 2) / '

Plane Geometry (Mathematics C) 1

One History 1

* "A unit represents a year's study in any subject in a secondary school, constituting approximately a quarter of a full year's work. A four years' sec- ondary school curriculum should be regarded as representing not more than sixteen units of work."

t For definitions of these subjects see pages 28-39. The names in round brackets represent the terms used for the corresponding requirements of the College Entrance Examination Board (see page 27). See also the first foot- note on page 26.

23

HA VERFORD COLLEGE

Group II (elective) :

Latin A (Latin 1 , 2 and 3) 2

( Cicero (Latin 4) 1

Latin B 1 Vergil (Latin 5) I 2*

[ Composition (Latin 6) J

Greek (Greek A 2, B G and C) 3

Elementary German (German A) 2

Elementary French (French A) 2

Advanced French (French B) 1

Spanish 2

Botany 1

Chemistry 1

Physics 1

Physiology 1

Solid Geometry and Trigonometry (Mathe- matics D and E) 1

Every student must present for admission subjects having a total value of 14^ units arranged as follows:

For A.B. degree:

All subjects in Group 1 6§

Latin A and Latin B 4

(Or Greek, 3 units) Other subjects from Group II (including one

language) 4

(Or, with Greek, 5 units)

* Any two of the three subdivisions under Latin B together with Latin A will be accepted as constituting three units.

24

ADMISSION

For the S.B. degree:

All subjects in Group I b\

Subjects from Group II (including at least four units in the languages) S

The candidate may give evidence of his preparation in these requirements by either of the following plans for admission :

I. By Examination only. The candidate must take entrance examinations in all the subjects which he pre- sents for admission. He may take examinations in any of these subjects as preliminary examinations a full year or more before he intends to enter college, but no student will be admitted to a preliminary examination without a certificate from his teacher specifying the subjects in which he is prepared.

Students unable to pass all the examinations may be admitted with a few conditions. Each case will be decided on its merits.

II. By both Examination and Certificate. This system may be employed by school graduates only. The graduate must present, on blanks supplied by the College and signed by the principal of the school which he has at- tended, a complete record of his work on all subjects during the last four years of preparation, with the time spent and the grade received in each study. This work is expected to include the subjects with a total value of 14| units prescribed on the preceding page.

He must also take entrance examinations in three sub- jects,— English, mathematics, and one foreign language. The English will be the examination defined as English B. The mathematics will be both Algebra B and Plane

25

HA VERFORD COLLEGE

Geometry. The language required will be, for the A.B. degree, either Latin B or Greek; for the S.B. degree, either Elementary German or Elementary French.* The three examinations must alt be taken and passed at one time either in the Sixth month or the Ninth month.

On the basis of his certificate and his marks in these examinations the applicant will be either admitted with- out conditions or rejected with permission to apply again for admission according to either plan.f

This plan is intended mainly for good students, who, deciding late in their school courses to enter Haverford, would find it difficult to prepare themselves for exami- nation in all their entrance subjects, but could readily pass a good examination in three fundamental subjects of their school course and present a satisfactory certifi- cate for all of it. Candidates of only average ability and those who can take preliminary examinations in regular order will gain nothing by adopting this plan.

Special Students. — A few students not candidates for degrees may be received to pursue special courses. All such candidates under twenty-one years of age must satisfy the entrance requirements demanded of regular students.

Advanced Standing. — Candidates may be admitted to advanced classes if found proficient in all the preceding studies of the course. Each case will be considered on its merits. Students entering from other colleges must present certificates of honorable dismissal.

* Students entering by both examination and certificate may use the follow- ing "Comprehensive Examinations" of the College Entrance Examination Board: English, Mathematics C3, and either Latin C4, Greek C3, French C2, or German C2.

t In a few exceptional cases a student who fails in one examination but passes the other two examinations with high marks may be admitted if at the next examination period he repeats the examination in the subject in which he failed and passes it with a high mark.

26

ADMISSION

COURSE OF STUDY

The course of study includes both required and elective subjects, thus combining the breadth of knowledge and culture that comes from variety of studies with oppor- tunity for concentration on limited fields. In addition to a general course in arts or in science, by proper choice of electives more specialized courses can be taken in mechanical engineering, in electrical engineering, in chemistry, or in the preparatory work required for admis- sion to medical schools.

Required Subjects. — English and one foreign language are required for the first two years, mathematics and another foreign language for the Freshman year. At least one course in laboratory science must be taken before graduation. Elementary courses in history, economics, psychology, Biblical literature, ethics, and social work are required during the last three years of the course. The differences in the requirements for the A.B. and the S.B. degree are indicated by the two following regulations :

I. For the A.B. degree either Greek or Latin must be presented for admission and one of them must be taken in both Freshman and Sophomore years; for the S.B. degree either French or German must be taken in both Freshman and Sophomore years.

II. It is further required that for the A.B. degree one course from the group: biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, must be taken after the Freshman year; for the S.B. degree two courses from this group are required after Freshman year.

40

COURSES OF STUDY

Electives. — Some choice in languages and in one other group of subjects is allowed in Freshman year. Two electives are to be chosen in Sophomore year. In both Junior and Senior years four elective courses are required and a fifth is permitted. But in choosing electives it is required that after Freshman year one subject be con- tinued through three years and two others through two years. One required course or half-course may be counted as one year's course in the three-year sequence, and two required courses of four hours each may be counted as one year's course in the two-year sequence.

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION

[Unless otherwise indicated all courses are offered in 1917-1918.]

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR 1917-18

The College has received a fund which will amount to nearly $400,000, to be called the Moses Brown Fund, the income of which is to be applied to graduate instruc- tion in the Bible, philosophy, sociology, history and " kindred subjects."

Arrangements for the organization of this work have not yet been completed, but will be given later in a special announcement.

The College is also promised a fund of about $150,000 to establish a department of English constitutional his- tory. It is expected that this also will become effective for the college year 1917-18 and that the courses in history will be modified extensively as a result.

For information concerning these changes and addi- tions to the courses of instruction, address the
