THE HONORARY DEGREES DOCTOR OF LAWS — JOHN SIMPSON HASTINGS By his eminence in the legal profession he reflects honor upon the Law School of Indiana University from which he was graduated in 1924. He is Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit. In the development of higher education in the Middle West he has played a significant role, for he is a director of the Indiana University Foundation, a past president of the Alumni Association, and a former president of the Board of Trustees of Indiana University. As a member of the Board of Governors of the Riley Hospital for Crippled Children, Indianapolis, Indiana, he has made further invaluable contributions to the public welfare. Presented by Kenneth F. Burgess, Life Trustee and former President of the Board of Trustees of Northwestern University DOCTOR OF HUMANE LETTERS — EDWARD AUGUSTUS WEEKS His writing ability, critical acumen, and sure taste have made him an ideal editor of one of America's most respected magazines. Since 1938 he has continued in The Atlantic Monthly the high standards set by his predecessors, James Russell Lowell, William Dean Howells, and Ellery Sedgwick. He has kept each issue up to date and lively without sacrificing the dignity of tone that has characterized the magazine since its founding in 1857. His perceptive book reviews and informal essays have won him a large following. In the cause of higher education he has served as Overseer to Harvard College, Trustee to Wellesley College and Director of the United Negro College Fund. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. In the cultural life of the United States during the last twenty-five years he has played a central and a sig- nificant part. Presented by Jean H. Hagstrum, Professor and Chairman of the Department of English DOCTOR OF LAWS — HENRY ALLEN MOE To the retiring Director of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation all American universities interested in research are indebted. Over many years he has sought out talent in the arts and the sciences. Through his unadvertised assistance many a notable book and many a significant discovery has been made possible. In recognition of his contributions to the intellectual life of our era, the National Institute of Arts and Letters conferred an award upon him (1955), and the National Academy of Sciences presented him with a medal (1958). His earliest recognition was a Rhodes Scholarship (1920-23), his latest, the Presidency of the Amer- ican Philosophical Society (1959). His honorable career is fitly crowned with today's honor. Presented by Gaylord A. Freeman, Jr., Trustee of Northwestern University 3 ONE HUNDRED AND THIRD COMMENCEMENT DOCTOR OF SCIENCE — MELVIN CALVIN A scientist whose reputation is attested by the numerous prizes and awards that he has received from professional societies and foundations in this country and abroad, he has been since 1937 Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Bio-organic Division of the Radiation Laboratory, the University of California at Berkeley. He is noted for his research on the chemistry of Photo- synthesis and for his services on international commissions dealing with atomic energy and radioactivity. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences. The degree conferred on him today is one more recognition of a lifetime of professional accomplishment. Presented by Robert L. Burwell, Jr., Professor of Chemistry DOCTOR OF LAWS — ERIC OLDBERG On this eminent surgeon and public-spirited citizen Northwestern has already conferred four degrees, (B.S. 1923, M.S. 1926, M.D. 1927, Ph.D. 1928) and an alumni medal (1953). By his continuing services to his profession and to the Chicago community he has earned this sixth award. Since 1936 he has been Professor and Head of the Department of Neurology and Neuro- logical Surgery in the University of Illinois College of Medicine, and attending neurological surgeon to many leading hospitals. He is President of the Chicago Board of Health. As Presi- dent of the Chicago Orchestra Association, Trustee of the Ravinia Festival Association, and Director of such institutions as the Chicago Zoological Society and the John Crerar Library, he has helped to make Chicago one of the Nation's chief cultural and educational centers. Presented by Dr. Loyal Davis, Professor and Chairman of the Department of Surgery DOCTOR OF SCIENCE — JOHN ROBINSON PIERCE An electrical engineer of international distinction, he directed the development of the satellite Echo which for the first time utilized outer space for communication. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, and of the British Interplanetary Society. In 1947 he was awarded the Morris Liebmann memorial prize by the Institute of Radio Engineers. His many books and articles are further evidence of his standing in his field. Since 1955 he has been Director of Research in Electrical Communications at the Bell Telephone Laboratories. In this position at one of the nerve centers of the nation, he makes important contributions to our country's defense and progress. Presented by Gordon J. Murphy, Professor and Chairman of the Department of Electrical Engineering DOCTOR OF LAWS — OTTO KERNER^ JR. He has had an illustrious career in two professions, the military and the legal. At the end of World War II, he retired from the United States Army with the rank of Major General, and awards which included the Soldier's Medal, the Bronze Star, the Army Commendation Ribbon, and a Presidential Unit Citation. In the legal profession he has risen steadily from the United States District Attorneyship for Northern Illinois, 1947-54, through a Cook County Judgeship, 1955-60, to his present position as Governor of the State of Illinois. His talents have been equalled by his personal integrity. And both have been demonstrated repeatedly in his handling of public affairs. His high attainments redound to the credit of the Northwestern School of Law from which he was graduated in the class of 1934. Presented by Payson S. Wild, Vice-President and Dean of Faculties of Northwestern University 4 THE DEGREES IN COURSE The appearance of a name on this list is presumptive evidence of graduation but is not to be regarded as conclusive.

  • Notes for Tour of Townsend Mansion, Home of the Cosmos
    NOTES FOR TOUR OF TOWNSEND MANSION HOME OF THE COSMOS CLUB July 2015 Harvey Alter (CC: 1970) Editor Updated: Jean Taylor Federico (CC: 1992), Betty C. Monkman (CC: 2004), FOREWORD & ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS These notes are for docent training, both background and possible speaking text for a walking tour of the Club. The material is largely taken from notes prepared by Bill Hall (CC: 1995) in 2000, Ed Bowles (CC: 1973) in 2004, and Judy Holoviak (CC: 1999) in 2004 to whom grateful credit is given. Many of the details are from Wilcomb Washburn’s centennial history of the Club. The material on Jules Allard is from the research of Paul Miller, curator of the Newport Preservation Society. The material was assembled by Jack Mansfield (CC: 1998), to whom thanks are given. Members Jean Taylor Federico and Betty Monkman with curatorial assistant, Peggy Newman updated the tour and added references to notable objects and paintings in the Cosmos Club collection in August, 2009. This material was revised in 2010 and 2013 to note location changes. Assistance has been provided by our Associate Curators: Leslie Jones, Maggie Dimmock, and Yve Colby. Acknowledgement is made of the comprehensive report on the historic structures of the Townsend Mansion by Denys Peter Myers (CC: 1977), 1990 rev. 1993. The notes are divided into two parts. The first is an overview of the Club’s history. The second part is tour background. The portion in bold is recommended as speaking notes for tour guides followed by information that will be useful for elaboration and answering questions. The notes are organized by floor, room and section of the Club, not necessarily in the order tours may take.

  • Mcginness and Scott Families” Published in 1892 by Murdoch, Kerr & Co., Pittsburgh, Pa
    Gc 929.2 Sco8019s 1821419 REYNOLDS HISTORICAL GENEALOGY COLLECTION Quotations and Excerpts ~ from ^McGinness and Scott Families” Published in 1892 by Murdoch, Kerr & Co., Pittsburgh, Pa. with additional supplementary historical and geneological data of the John “P.” Scott Branch of The Scott Family and their relations with The White, May, Welch, Reed, Farrar, Cook and Gladden Families of Yohogania County, Virginia which in 1781 became Washington County, Pennsylvania Collected and compiled by George Wilson Scot / 1953 First Edition—A.D 1953 Printed by THE IMPERIAL PRESS Imperial, Pennsylvania Prefatory Notes It was with great reluctance and considerable misgiving that I finally con¬ sented to undertake the work of bringing the John **P.” Scott branch of the Scott Family History up to date. It had its beginning in the "McGinness and Scott Families and Their Branches” which was compiled and edited by Samuel W. McGinness and Mary R. Ford, and published, in 1892, by The Press of Murdoch Kerr & Co., of Ninth Steret, Pittsburgh, Pa. (It is available in some libraries.) It was brought to my attention, by several nephews and nieces* that as I was the last of the immediate family of John "P.” Scott, and was well up in years* much first-hand information of the days after the publication of the McGinness and Scott Families, would be forever lost if I made no effort to put what I know of the family and its connections into writing. I could readily see the logic of their arguments and decided that I should undertake the work. It is the writer’s regret and the reader’s misfortune that I have had no jour¬ nalistic education or training whatsoever and beg the readers to overlook the many unusual statements and grammatical errors which will, no doubt, be found in the following pages.
