\ Ofhe Vice-chancellors Vage

The University extends sincerest thanks to the nine hundred seventy-six alumni who have contributed during 1951 to the Alumni Fund, or to the Guerry Memorial Campaign, or to both.

According to the latest tabulation your total contribution to these two funds for the year was

$214,879.39 in cash and pledges. This is extremely encouraging.

You will be interested to know that a total of $725,000 in cash and pledges was raised for the building fund toward $900,000 needed by De- cember thirty-first, in order to obtain a bonus of $100,000 from an anonymous donor. The donor has been good enough to extend his time limit

until Easter Day, which is April thirteenth this year. We must raise $175,000 between now and then in order to take advantage of his offer and provide for the cost of the two buildings now going up—Gailor Memorial and Gorgas Hall. The latter, which is the new dormitory at the

Academy, has just had its name chosen in honor of the Academy's first Superintendent, the Uni- versity's second Vice-Chancellor, and his son, who has become, perhaps, Sewanee's best-known alumnus.

We all have reason to be extremely thankful for the many blessings which have come to Se- wanee during the year 1951. We have obtained stone dormitory (Shapard Hall), and virtual as-

Summer School Scheduled For June 11 —August 19

Courses in 15 departments, including a complete freshman program and second-year basic Air Science classes will be offered at Sewanee's 1952 summer session, Dr. Gaston S. Bru- ton, dean of administration and the summer school, has announced. The ten-week term will run from June 11 through August 19 with semester courses offered in all departments and a year's credit available in some cases. Last summer's session attracted 88 students, and, as before, the summer school will be open to coeds.

February , Nineteen Fifty-Two Sewanee Cagers f ) Near End Of 22-Game Season

Sewanee cagers are facing the last lap of their rugged 22-game schedule with a fighting chance to end the season with a .500 record in the win column. With four games against formidable Southeast Conference opponents on this season's bill, a 50-50 split would be a good season for the Tiger quintet. Tiger fortunes stand at seven won and 10 lost with two tough games with Bethel College and Mississippi State still to be played. However, m spite of trouncings by Alabama, 83-40, Mississippi State, 71-46, and Vander- bilt, 86-63, game averages for the season show Sewanee trailing their foes by five points. The Tigers have racked up an average 58 points per game compared with a 63-point average for all opponents. Howard fell before the Tiger quintet in the first tilt of the season. Middle Tennessee State edged Sewanee 54-51 to even the slate. Then the Tigers hit the Southeast Conference circuit bowing to Alabama, Mississippi State and Vanderbilt. Lambuth College and Stetson tripped the Purples to hand

February , Nineteen Fifty-Two 11 Sewanee Foresters

Sewanee's Forestry Department has been continually on the upswing this year with laboratory expansion being provided for in the remodeling of the eld press building, a new 9,000-acre management area under its supervis- i:n, and a special program of remov- ing wnite oak inaugurated as the first step in managing Sewanee's low quality plateau hardwoods. Ir.e old press building is being turned into laboratories for the For- est Products Industries curriculum under the direction of Instructor Rus- sell Hallberg, with a laboratory for the instruction of wood technology and forest utilization, an engineering draw- Students learn to use power saw in current cutting operations on olomain. ing and surveying laboratory, and an c o. hc3 on the first floor. In the basement will be a shop complete with woodworking machinery where students can become familiar wuh the working, finishing, and glu- ing characteristics of the commercially imp;rtant woods. Surveying instru- ments and other field work equipment will be stored there, and space will be available for the future installation o. timber testing equipment. New Management Area In the near future the Forestry De- partment will increase its management area by 9,000 acres when Clar- ence Day, Jr., of Columbus, Miss., pur.hases the land to the mutual financial advantage of himself and the 'University. The 9 000 acres are in Marion County cbDut two miles east of Tracy City in the Sequatchie Valley, and department head Charles E. Cheston says the new area will afford some of his 15 forestry majors summer work in practical application in surveying and timber-cruising. The 4,500 acres on top are mostly pineland, while the remainder in the coves is hardwood. The eventual plan will be to take off equal quantities of timber each year. White Oak Gutting From daylight to dusk during the fall rnd early winter from one to five chain saws have been cutting white cak timber on the domain west of the University Dairy. In four months approximately 700 acres have been cut over, with an alumnus—Alexander W. Wellford, "34, SAE, of Wellford Bros. & Klepzig, Inc., Memphis—contract holder of three of the four white oak sale areas put up for bid by the Forestry Department. The contracts state that all white oak trees over 16 inches in diameter at the stump are t? b3 cut, and that tie logs shall be made ,'rom any sound portion of the trees not suitable for bolts. "These provisions help to carry out timber stand improvement and maximum utilization," explains University Forester and Assistant Professor Henry Wilds Smith, Jr. The oak cutting is the first step in managing Sewanee's low quality plateau hardwoods, and as follow-ups, other species are being marked for tie sales. The third step is intensive fire protection. The problem of low quality hard-

woods on top of the Mountain has been acute for many years. The area on which white oak is being sold today was cut over for ties about 1912, and even then the white oak as well as black gum was not taken because these species were found to be de- fective. Today, as a result of fire and highgrading, one out of five white oaks is worthless and some of the lelatively sound oaks indicate that at least five fires have burned many parts of the domain. '"The University is therefore fortunate tD be able to market this low quality white oak, and fortunate also Weather Station is checked daily by students under Instructor Hallberg's super- in having Mr Wellford as a contrac- vision. tor," Forester Smith points out, "and the company is realizing a reasonable profit despite the 60-mile haul to \. \\\ Gurley, Ala." m*o Although the University is receiving substantial returns from its forest, Mr. Smith feels the income from white oak stumpage is best considered sal- vage rather than profit. To date white

cak • stumpage receipts total $10,085, and statistics show a per acre return of $11.73. Seventy-five board feet per acre of tie logs have been recovered end ebout one cull tree per acre has b^en removed, at no cost to the Uni- versity. "And the 'coon hunter need not fear for his sport—there are still more than enough den trees to keep Proeyon happy," Mr. Smith comments. Dry Kiln Planned Other progress includes nearly completed plans and construction details for the installation of a modern lum- cer dry kiln adjacent to the Univer- sity sawmill. Also anticipated is the addition of a planing machine, which will enable the University to have dry finished lumber for construction and repair work, Mr. Cheston reports. r^nry Disston and Sons, chain-saw manul'actursrs, are going to loan a cne-man chain saw to the Forestry Department for instructional purposes, the University last fall by the Corley Manufacturing Company of Chattanooga, now has the shine worn cfr.

"This year the Forestry Department will be better prepared for the spring fire season than at any time in the past," Mr. Cheston adds. 'Additional deoartmental and woods personnel, a jeeo with fire disk, new fire tools, weekend patrols, a fire-danger station, brushing out old logging roads and locating new ones, will do much to faci'itate early detection and rapid suppression of fire in the forest. With adequat? fire protection and intensive forest management, the University can expect returns from its plateau hardwoods o." a dollar per acre per year jin the not too distant future."

THE UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH SEWANEE, TENNESSEE

Volume XVIII, No. 2 May 15, 1952 Ofhe "Vice- (Chancellor s ^age

All of you should have been in Sewanee on April 14, the Monday after Easter, when the million dollar campaign for

building funds went over the top. At the Easter service I

spoke for a few minutes about the many things which we at Sewanee had reason to be thankful for. We could not at that time tell whether the campaign would fully succeed or

not, but it had already brought in some $870,000 and I felt that we should thank God fervently for that, no matter what

else happened. A week before, it had seemed most unlikely that we could reach our goal of $900,000 which would earn us $100,000 more from an anonymous donor.

Then, after two days at the Southern University Con-

ference, I returned to the Mountain to find that the margin

had dropped to $55,000. On the Saturday before Easter it had further decreased to about $30,000. This made success seem possible, but not very likely. It was tantalizing. In those last few days contributions came from all directions—Canada, California, Texas, Florida, South Carolina, and right here in our own faculty.

On Easter I announced that we should make our public thanksgiving right then with no reservations

about what might or might not come to us in the future ; none the less, if we should reach our goal

thereafter, I wanted to revive an old custom of ringing the bells on the Mountain. So I told them to keep in mind that if, in the next day or so, they should hear such a clamor as they had never

heard before, it would mean that we had gained a million dollars!

Well, that goal was reached a few minutes before 10 o'clock on Monday morning. Two boys were sent to other bells while I went to Breslin Tower, and in a few minutes, three bells were clanging as loudly as we could make them. Crowds surged to the tower. Everyone wanted his own chance to

pull the rope. I relinquished my rope and unlocked the door to the bell room proper, so that I could go up there and actually let the vibrations shake me through and through. The boys came surging up behind me, and soon were pounding on all the bells not already in motion, with pipes and ham- mers and anything else available. It was the wildest and most joyous pandemonium I have ever heard. The din was unimaginable in that tower. One of the students cupped his hands about my ear and shouted as loudly as he could that it would be a wonderful thing if I would announce that all classes were dismissed for the day; and, do you know, though his voice was loud enough to hurt my ears, I couldn't hear a word he said.

Well, we are all mighty thankful at Sewanee, and we wish every one of you who helped or even wished us well, could have been here to share in the celebration.

Cordially yours, £ew a n ee ^Alumni D^e w s

Archives Tell .

• ; Where have the valuable documents i speeches, pamphlets and relics ol Bishops Otey and Elliott, of Generals Kirby-Smith and Shoup been preserved? Mrs. Oscar Torian, archivist, says "all over everywhere"—at least until the archives were established in 1943 Though a goodly number of "individual archivists" collected many valuable items, there was no organized department until Dr. Guerry asked. "Miss Sarah" to sort the papers of her father, the Rev. Dr. Tellair Hodgson, Sewanee's third vice-chancellor. Re- quested to remain as archivist, Miss Sarah has been searching and cata- loguing ever since. Forming the basis for the archives are the papers of the Sewanee His- torical Society, founded in the 1880's, and the Fairbanks-Glass collection of fifty volumes of programs and letters, among which were replies from persons invited to attend the cornerstone laying in 1858. From Professor Nauts came periodi- cals a set of the Record, a town Looking over a cut-out pattern for a patchwork quilt, "Miss Sarah" Torian is ex- paper, and the Cap and Gown, then amining a news item which revealed a long since forgotten bit of Sewanee history. a monthly publication. Many valuable services, unantici pated when the archives were es tablished, have contributed to Sewa nee's well-being. When an irascible old mountaineer contested the prop erty rights of the domain, Miss Sarah went to work and produced surveys, documents and deeds leading to the of a clear claim which establishment k was upheld in the courts. Similar material was of inestimable value to the forestry department in mapping the domain's 8,449 acres. Before Dr. Guerry wrote his pamph- let describing All Saints' Chapel and all its furnishings, Miss Sarah brought to light descriptive materials, and even a hidden memorial which had been forgotten these many years. Frequently people request material about the founding fathers or the Uni- versity itself. Alumni Secretary Ar- thur Chitty, who is busily engaged in writing a graduate thesis about early University history, would testify that the archives tell the story of Se- wanee. Just how Sewaneeana gets to Miss Sarah is a story in itself. For example, a lady's pattern used in making patchwork quilts recently revealed a piece of Sewanee history long since forgotten. A technician at the hosoital was going through a cedar chest of keep- sakes, when she found a piece of material cut-out for a patchwork quilt, sewn to a newspaper pattern bearing the word "Sewanee" in the headline. The dateline must have been about 1917 or shortly thereafter. "The University of the South," it reads, "already represented at the battle front in France by the Sewanee Ambulance unit, has become a mem- Students examine Sewaneeana and frequently discover ancestral connections ber of the American University Union with early university history.

maintain in Paris a headquarters for heir alumni." Things seem to tie together. Only his year the Rev. William Shannon Stoney, '20, SAE, gave the archives nis scrapbook of the nearly 40-mem- 3er Sewanee ambulance unit. Asked about the single most fas- inating item in her collection, Miss J3arah didn't hesitate: "It's a chain made of heavy iron. Did it bind Jeff Davis, or was it the anchor of the IVIerrimac?" Miss Sarah knows it's 'something special or it wouldn't have heen found under the Walsh staircase j.vith the rare Confederate navy china Irhe Old South items, of course, are numerous like the lithograph for minting rebel money.

Then, there's the jeweled chalice which Mrs. Mani- gault, benefactor of St. Luke's Hall, presented Sewanee at the instigation of Bishop Quintard. It's common knowledge that the Yankees blew up the original cornerstone, and later, with a pang of conscience, fashioned some of its frag- iments into marble Bibles. In fact, pf all the known pieces of the cornerstone were assembled, unlike Humpty Dumpty, it could probably be put back together again. Several pieces of the cornerstone are in the (archives, some shaped into crosses and brooches. Not all Sewaneeana is kept in the "cage." Many items of interest are in the chapel—among them the Confed- erate battle flag from Shiloh given by the Glass family. This is no ordi- nary flag— it was saved after the battle when Jason Fairbanks wrapped it around his body. Also with the Con- federate paraphernalia is a bugler's cap from the Kentucky regiment, and an ammunition bag found right on the site of the battle of Sewanee. Are things still coming in? "Why, of course." Miss Sarah said indig- nantly. "You should see the purple watch with the gold stars, one for each member of the 1899 football team!" The watch came in the other day from the daughter of Aunt Rhia Miss Sarah accepts the silk hat oj Vice-Chancellor Lawton Wiggins jrom Hayden Nelson who was hostess to the famous McBee, university peace officer, whose father received the hat jrom Mrs. Wiggins gridders.

With 36 of 107 cities raising or exceeding goals Sewanee alumni, parents, grandparents, churches and friends put the University some $72,000 over the bonus mark by Easter Day. Counting the $100,000 gift from the anonymous donor. Sewanee has raised $1,072,000 for buildings since November 1, 1950. During that same period, i.e., in the last 18 months, the total of the Guerry Memorial Campaign in all categories rose by $1,332,164.60, to a new high at the five year mark of $3,119,791.26. Rallying around the Mountain, Sewanee men and women were determined the University would not lose the $100,000 bonus. Here's what some of them and also some of our churches and dioceses did in April to show how they felt about it. The Diocese of Florida sent over $52,000 for two faculty residences for the College. Four Jacksonville business men sent in $3,000 for a dry kiln for the Depart- ment of Forestry. Churchmen in Ft. Lauderdale decided Sewanee has a case and sent in $1,170 pronto.

ALUMNI NEWS Ofhe Vice-chancellors Tage

In spite of bad publicity in connection with the Negro question we have a great deal to be thankful for this summer. The number of applications for enrollment of new men in the College may be the highest we have ever had, and we are actually embarrassed about how to take care of them during the first few weeks if Gailor Hall is not finished on time. But we shall take them into our homes for as long as necessary. At the Academy the enrollment will be the highest on record; and at the Seminary the only reason we shall not have more students than last year (the highest number on record) is that there is no place to put any more. Also our endowment is increasing. Since my last report to you we have received $20,000 and $25,000 from anonymous sources, and an increase of $65,000 in the value of our Grosvenor At the Cornerstone legacy. This substantial increase in our material means makes me want to quote to you some remarks I made a few years ago on Founders' Day. The significant and remarkable thing about Sewanee's early history is that, in spite of the dire!, poverty, the University was able to attract to itself a faculty of remarkable distinction. The men who came to Sewanee to teach in those days came out of devotion, we might almost say consecration, to the ideals for which the institution was created. They came not for what Sewanee could give them, but for what they could give Sewanee. Only this can explain how so small a school with such inadequate material means, could achieve so high a reputation for the quality of its product. In the years since then, it has not yet regained the affluence of its birth, but it has continued to hold to itself a faculty of higher quality than its finances alone could possibly attract, and it has slowly grown through many a precarious period, until at last it seems again on the threshold of financial stability. And, though it does not seem that a University should expect to continue any longer than necessary to depend or impose upon the consecrated lives of men who find her objectives more worthy than adequate material compensation, yet, as the day dawns when it looks as if she will be able to offer compensation commensurate with the quality of work expected, one can not help but realize that money will not solve all problems. It could even introduce new ones. In the past no professor would come to Sewanee, or stay here, who was not deeply devoted to her ideals, for there was nothing else to attract or hold him; and the same was true of students. This made for a great community of feeling and purpose As long as the ideals of the highest scholarship in a Christian environment of refinement and gentility were the only attractions, both the students who chose the place, and the faculty who served it, were a remarkably homogeneous group. A high degree of uniformity was automatically assured by a sort of natural selection. But, if it now becomes possible to offer financial inducements adequate to compete with other institutions on a commercial market, we might easily lose character, if we are not more careful than ever. When it is easy to get people to come for commercial reasons, the danger is that we may inadvertently acquire a personnel with little other interest in the institution It is therefore, more important than ever that we steep ourselves in the traditions of the past, that we remember Sewanee's ideals, and strive sedulously to preserve in these easier days what bound us together in adversity.

The Sewanee Alumni News Seniors Receive Air Force Commissions

Two Sewanee students became the di- first air force officers to receive rect appointments at graduation exercises," when Lt. Col. W. Flinn Gilland, prof, of air science and tactics, presented commissions to Jim Ed Mulkin, '52, SAE, and Michael Poe, '52, PDT, on June 9, 1952. Both new reserve officers will be called to artive duty this summer. They will complete an officers' indoctrination course and will then attend a specialized training school before getting their permanent duty assignments. Also for the first time, Sewanee cadets in the junior and senior years completed summer training at three bases—Kelly AF Base, San Antonio; Ellington AF Base, Houston; and Reese AF Base, Lubbock. The intensive four-week course is designed to acquaint prospective air force officers with operations on an air force base and to give practical experience in administrative procedure. Twelve summer school cadets with Dr. H. Malcolm Owen and Dr. Ben Cameron, specially invited because of their interest in the program, were guests of the AF ROTC Summer Camp at Sewart AF Base, Tenn., on a flight from Sewart to Ft.

Kayden Praises Academic Freedom At Sewanee

"Our conditions for intellectual in- tegrity, freedom of thought and responsible teaching are almost un- matched in our country." This statement is found in the recent letter of Professor Eugene M. Kayden answer- ing the protest of the theological faculty members. Apart from any contro- versial statements in the letter, his tribute to the University's academic freedom has no parallel in Sewanee literature. For 29 years Mr. Kayden has interpreted for his students the pros and cons of world revolutionary ideologies. Not once, he proudly as- serts, have "I . . . encountered disap- proval and criticism on the part of our college authorities. ... I am thankful before God and man that our environment is truly liberal, and that our authorities and students have faith in us as teachers and scholars. ... I am confident that Sewanee, with its limited resources, is actually educating a new generation of youth in social tolerance, social attitudes, in confident problem-solving attitudes for positive, creative work, for help- fulness and service, in the South and in the nation."

staff. He was elected lay trustee from the diocese of Florida and he was actively associated with the successive administrations. He was discussing the University's business with Quintard's son-in-law, Vice-Chancellor Ben- jamin Lawton Wiggins, over a table littered with maps of the domain, when he had his final heart attack. Fairbanks is the only man who has written a book- length history of the University of the South. Almost eighty when he began it, he displayed maturity of judg- ment in the astute interpretations of the ideals of the founders, the concept of the domain, the potentialities of the University as a unifying factor in the southern Epis- copal Church. It stands among the best sources of material on the University. William P. DuBose says: "He was not always understood or appreciated . . his silent endurance and survival of all the trials that beset himself or assailed his trust . . . won . him the . . place he has . . . —the patriarch of Sewanee." Fairbanks was the de facto architect of early Sewanee He was a modern utilitarian. Though all of his buildings were constructed in the days of the most devious carpenter- gothic, he fastened no gingerbread on University buildings. He built in the vernacular. In his acts and in his History of the University of the South, Fairbanks was the interpreter of the domain He seized the founders' concept of a great landed site and held fast to the idea, using every opportunity to teach the second generation what the founders had envisioned Se- clusion that perfection might be attempted under the most .avorable circumstances; insulation, that interference might be repelled or controlled; altitude, that the beacon on a hill might be seen afar—these were the intangibles which Major George R.

He attended Petit Seminaire, Montreal, received confidence in the other-this was the team which a set master's degree from Union College, Schenectady and the University on its way. was admitted to the New York bar. In 1842 he was appointed clerk of the United States circuit court in St Augustine, Florida, and by 1860, when he moved to Se- wanee, he had served as state senator (1846-1847) presi- dential elector for Lewis Cass (1848), mayor of St Au- gustine (1857), and repeatedly as deputy to the Episcopal general convention. Present at the second meeting of the board of trustees, he attended practically every succeeding meeting until his death in 1906. He was the first in 1859 to build a home at Sewanee beside the first founders Polk and Elliott; he was the first in 1866 to build beside the second founder, Bishop Quintard. In the Confederacy he was chief quartermaster for the Tennessee army's hospital department. At Sewanee he was the first commissioner of buildings and lands. He divided his time between Tennessee and Florida, where he was one of the S rges t landho] ders and where he became president oi*Xthe Florida^ , Fruit Exchange and of the Florida Histori- cal Society which he helped organize. Called "the foremost historian of Florida," he edited for a time the Florida Weekly Mirror from his winter home (after 1880) in fernandma His History of Florida, first published in 1871 was adopted in its rewritten third edition by the state school system in 1904. His History and Antiquities of St Augustine is linked with the development of that citv as a tourist attraction. As did Quintard, Fairbanks continued his services to the University after he ceased to be a member of the paid Rebel's Rest—the home of Major Fairbanks built in 1866. 20 The Sewanee Alumni News ALUMNI NEWS

In the August issue, I spoke of encouraging prospects for enrollment. These have now been fully realized. At a time when enrollments !

throughout the country were expected to decrease

At the Academy, Gorgas Hall is completed and j occupied. At the University, Gailor Hall has had \ its dining room and kitchen in operation since the

opening of school. All of the University stu-

dents are fed there except the thirty who live at

Tuckaway. Some eighty will soon be housed at Gailor, but the finishing of the dormitory rooms was delayed by a strike. The strike has been

settled, and the final painting of walls is now in progress.

Construction of Shapard Hall will have to be delayed somewhat, but meanwhile funds have become available for another new stone dormitory which will be a memorial to the late George T. Hunter of Chattanooga. The architects have

recommended a site, and their choice is now being referred to the Planning Committee of the Board

of Regents. As soon as a decision is reached, we shall proceed as rapidly as possible with construc-

tion. We hope to have Hunter Hall completed

and in use next fall.

Plans are rapidly maturing for a Centennial Celebration in 1957. You will be informed of details within the next few months. We hope to have our major building program finished by that date, and our principal services should be held in the completed All Saints' Chapel. There will be plenty to thank God for at the end of Sewanee's first hundred years.

College Enrollment Rises

With 486 students registered in the College of Arts and Sciences for the 1952-53 school year, Sewanee's enrollment has taken a sizeable increase over the 432 registered in the fall of 1951. The freshman class of 199 is one of the largest the University has ever had. First term freshmen number 148. According to Registrar Mrs. R. G. Dudney, thirty-two states are represented with Tennessee again holding the lead with 107 students.

November, Nineteen Fifty-Two Japanese Bishop of Kobe Sewanee Vice-Chancellor Installed Speaks at Sewanee

Sewanee was visited October 3 by the Most Rev. Michael Hinsuke Ya- shiro, S.T.D., Bishop of Kobe and presiding bishop of the Nippon Seiko- kwai, made up of ten dioceses which became self-governing in 1930. The bishop, like his father who was a priest, was educated in Japan and at Kelham Theological Seminary in Eng- land. He was ordained in 1929 and became presiding bishop of the Jap- anese Church in 1947. He left his wife and nine children in Japan, to come to the United States August 28. He visited Canada, then attended the General Convention in Boston, and has since been touring the United States speaking and holding quiet days. He planned to return to Japan in November. Bishop Yashiro was the guest of Dean F. Craighill Brown. The bishop spoke Friday night October 3 at St. Luke's and remained to preach on Sunday in All Saints' Chapel. The bishop spoke of the enthusiasm with which university students in Japan received the Rev. Howard A. Johnson during Mr. Johnson's lecture tour of Japan this past summer. One of the problems of the Japanese Church, the bishop said, is how to reach the intellectual students who tend to think of Christianity as a shallow and senti- mental religion. Mr. Johnson's success was especially with these more intellectual young Japanese. Bishop Yashiro said that Japanese schools and colleges are over-crowded, because all Japanese try to educate their children. He was impressed with the beauty and spaciousness of Sewa- nee.

Chipman Receives New Metallurgy Honors

Dr. John Chipman, '20, "one of the world's most outstanding Metallur- gists," ended his presidency of the American Society for Metals in Octo- ber. He was awarded the Albert Sauveur Achievement Award in recognition of his contributions to metallurgical knowledge and was also honored by the Italian Metallurgical Society. Dr. Chipman at fifty-five has been the head of the Department of Metal- lurgy at Massachusetts Institute of Technology for the last six years. The greatest advances in the study of the physical chemistry of steelmaking have come in the past twenty-five years, in the opinion of a committee awarding him the Clamer Medal for the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia.
