His chief adviser for this special effort was Alexander Heard, dis- tinguished chancellor of Vanderbilt University, whom I have the honor to present today. Chancellor Heard was a logical and wise choice for this assignment. His academic and administrative abilities were of the highest order, and he was no stranger to national service. In 1961 President Kennedy appointed him chairman of a special commission on campaign spending, a field in which Dr. Heard had done considerable research, culminating in the publication in 1960 of the highly regarded study entitled " The Costs of Democracy." He served on the Social Science Advisory Board of the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, and in 1964 was appointed by President Johnson to the National Citizens Committee for Community Relations. As a scholar, Dr. Heard is nationally recognized as an authority on the politics of the South, and in 1952 published the outstanding study entitled "A Two-Party South?" Born in Georgia in 1917, he graduated from the Uni- versity of North Carolina in 1938. Between 1939 and 1943 he was a civilian in government service in the Departments of Interior, War, and State; and from 1943 to 1946 he saw naval service in the Pacific. After the war he took his master's and doctoral degrees in political science at Columbia University and then taught at the University of Alabama and the University of North Carolina, where he was also dean of the Graduate School, before coming to Vanderbilt as chancellor in 1963. The ballmark of Dr. Heard's career is his deep commitment to the cause of racial justice. As a Southerner, he has dedicated himself to the effort to help solve, in his words, " the uniquely important and tenacious problems of our biracial society." Through years of successful leadership he has earned a reputa- tion as a man of deep principle, exceptional sensitivity, scrupulous fairness, and unshakable integrity. It is for his effectiveness as a communicator, an opener of channels of discourse among those whose views conflict; for his dedication to the cause of social justice; for his efforts to bring our country, particularly the South, beyond regional preoccupations to the great issues of human rights and freedoms; and for his leadership of the community of universities in the cause of humanity as well as the advancement of learning and research, that I am proud and honored to present for the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws, Alexander Heard. Citation Read by GEORGE S. BENTON in Presenting CONRAD GEBELEIN for the Degree of Master of Arts Mr. President, it is with a great deal of pleasure that I now present for special honors a man who has been a part of life at Johns Hopkins for almost half a century. It was 1924 when Conrad Gebelein first came to this institution as instrument director of the music club. Since that time, the musical program of the University has been maintained at a lively tempo, largely because of his efforts. No Hopkins lacrosse game, no football game, no Homecoming Day would have been the same without his presence. A friend recently remarked " that Gebby "—as he has been known to generations of Hopkins men—is as much a part of a Hopkins athletic event as the two opposing teams. He has rarely missed a home game, and he almost always travels with the team and the band to provide the kind of moral support that only a touch of home can generate. I should add that referees of contests in which Hopkins teams take part are also very much aware of Mr. Gebelein's presence, for he becomes intensely involved in the game action and has been known to use his baton to do some officiating of his own where there is a questionable call against Johns Hopkins. Conrad Gebelein has also been a part of the musical world in Baltimore, starting almost from the time of his arrival here at age fifteen from his native Bavaria. He studied at the Peabody and as early as 1925 was performing on a local radio station. He has taught music to hundreds of pupils, both in schools in the area and in his own studio. He is also an accomplished composer, and the repertoire of the Johns Hopkins Band, which he has directed for the last forty years, is much the richer for his compositions. These will guarantee that his influence on musical activities at Johns Hopkins will endure; and this is fortunate, for Mr. Gebelein has retired as of this spring. In recognition of all he has contributed—of his time, his considerable talents, and of himself—Mr. President, I am pleased to present Conrad Gebelein for the honorary degree of Master of Arts. THE UNIVERSITY MACE The University Mace carried by the Chief Marshal, Professor Charles S. Singleton, was first used at the 1954 Com- memoration Day Exercises. Eight symbols are hand wrought in sterling silver on an ebony staff. The symbols represent man's cultural development from ancient times, through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, to the modern era. THE PRESIDENTIAL INSIGNIA University President Milton S. Eisen- hower is wearing the Presidential Insignia signifying the authority vested in the President by the Board of Trustees. It is a chain of sterling silver links worn around the neck. Portraits of each of the nine Johns Hopkins University Presi- dents are engraved on the faces of nine of the links.
