PRESIDENT GOING WEST.

Dr. Schurman Will Deliver Addresses inMissouri, Utah and Washington, Reach-ing the Pacific Coast Late in December—Arrangements in Progress for AkunniReunions.

President Schurman is to make aWestern trip, leaving Ithaca on De-cember 8 and returning at the closeof the Christmas holidays. On theevening of December 9 he is to bethe guest of the Cornell Alumni atSt. Louis. Under an escort of honorof St. Louis Cornellians in a specialPullman sleeper, he then goes to Col-umbia for the inauguration on the10th and 11th of Dr. Hill as Presi-dent of the State University of Mis-souri.

WHENCE STUDENTS COME.

Comparison of Attendance at Six EasternUniversities.

Professor Rudolf Tombo, jr., ofColumbia University, contributes tothe latest number of Science his an-nual study of the geographical dis-tribution of the student body at anumber of universities and collegesthe same article, in condensed form,is printed in the Evening Post ofNew York. Of most interest to Cor-nellians are those parts of the arti-cle which compare the attendanceof students from &ve grand divisionsof the United States, from insularand non-contiguous Territories andfrom foreign countries at six East-ern universities—Columbia, Cornell,Harvard, Pennsylvania, Princetonand Yale. This division of attend-ance is shown in the following table,the figures being those of 1907-8, ex-clusive of summer session:

Divisions: Col. Cor. Har.North Atlantic 3,404 2,731 3,426South Atlantic 147 196 146South Central I l l 96 95North Central 380 445 526Western.... 121 91 138Territories 6 32 10Foreign countries... 173 143 142

Total 4,037 1,253 3,306

The figures, says Professor Tombo,prove once more that these institu-tions combined are more than hold-ing their own in sections outside ofthe North Atlantic division. In fact,the gains made by these six univer-sities in States outside the divisionin which they are situated are morethan twice as large as they were in1907, when the increase was morethan double that of 1906. The ex-act figures are 381, 189 and 91, re-spectively. He continues:

Greatest gains in actual numberof students, leaving the North Atlan-tic division out of consideration, andalso omitting all summer-session stu-dents, were registered in the NorthCentral division (117), the very sec-tion in which the State universities

furnish the highest degree of compe-tition. On the other hand, it shouldbe noted that the State institutionsof the Middle West are drawingEastern students in constantly in-creasing numbers, Michigan alonehaving had 116 more students fromthe North Atlantic division in 1908than in 1905.

In their representation from for-eign countries the six universitiesshow a gain of 92 students over thepreceding year, while the South At-lantic division, with one of 86, comesnext, followed by the Western (41),and South Central (36) divisions.

In the South Atlantic division allof these institutions show a gain,with the exception of Yale; in theSouth Central States the exceptionsare Harvard and Princeton in theNorth Central division all of them,with the exception of Princeton,show gains which are quite substan-tial in the case of Columbia and Cor-nell in the far Western States Penn-sylvania and Princeton are the onlyinstitutions that show a loss, whileall six have increased their clientelefrom foreign countries.

Comparing this year's figures withthose of three years ago, we observethat the most substantial gains havebeen made by Columbia (118)^ Yale(73), and Cornell (64), in the NorthCentral division; by Columbia (39),in the South Central division; byYale (37), in the Western division;by Pennsylvania (33), Harvard(32) and Columbia (29). in theSouth Atlantic division,, and by Penn-sylvania (90), Columbia (56), Har-vard (48) and Cornell (43), in for-eign countries.

We see from the table that Har-vard and Columbia continue to havethe largest representation in theNorth Atlantic division, Pennsylva-nia, Cornell, Yale and Princeton fol-lowing- in the order named. Outsideof Michigan, Western institutionslike California^ Illinois, Missouri,Ohio State, Wisconsin and the Uni-versity of Virginia attract compara-tively few students from this sectionof the country, although, with theexception of California, all of thosementioned show gains in attendancefrom this division over last year.

Harvard leads in all of the NewEngland States with the natural ex-ception of Connecticut, where Yalehas the largest following. Columbia

leads in New York and New JerseyΛ

drawing 413 students from thatState as against Princeton's 166, andthe University of Pennsylvania hasthe largest clientele in its own State.Cornell is second in New York State,Yale, Harvard and Princeton follow-ing. Michigan, however, attractsmore students (326) from this Statethan Princeton (282). Cornell isalso second in Pennsylvania.

Of the Eastern universities, Penn-sylvania has the largest percentage(67 per cent.) of enrollment from itsown State. The percentages for theother institutions are: Columbia> 62per cent. Cornell, 54 per cent. Har-vard, 52 per cent.; Yale, 34 per cent.,and Princeton only 21 per cent. Atthe prominent universities of theMiddle West the percentage is muchhigher, except in the case of Chicago,where 43 per cent, of the studentshail from Illinois (the Chicago fig-ures are inclusive of the summersession), and Michigan, where 53per cent, of the students come fromthe State in which the institution issituated. The percentage for Pur-due is 76 per cent., for Wisconsin81 per cent., for Illinois and Mis-souri 83 per cent., and for Ohio 91per cent.

In the North Central division thegreatest gains in individual States inthe past three years have been madeby Columbia in Illinois, Ohio andWisconsin by Cornell, in Ohio byHarvard, in Missouri; by Pennsyl-vania, in Iow$, and by Yale, in Mis-souri and Ohio. Columbia's repre-sentation in this group of States hasgrown from 262 to 380 in threeyears, Cornell's from 381 to 445,Pennsylvania's from 139 to 188, andYale's from 506 to 579, while Har-vard's has remained stationary at526, and Princeton's has droppedfrom 209 to 164.

Cornell continues to lead in thenumber of students from the insularpossessions.

Taking only the six Eastern uni-versities, the table shows that Colum-bia leads 6r is tied for first place inseventeen States and Territories,Yale in fourteen, Harvard in twelve,Cornell in ten, Pennsylvania in four,and Princeton in none, as follows:Columbia—New Jersey, New York,Georgia, North Carolina, SouthCarolina, Alabama, Tennessee, In-diana, Kansas, Michigan, North Da-

The number of foreign students atAmerican institutions of higherlearning is increasing rapidly fromyear to year. There are altogether783 foreigners at the six Easternuniversities, as against 540 threeyears ago. Owing to the consider-able representation of foreign stu-dents in its dental school, Pennsyl-vania continues to head the list, with216, followed by Columbia 173, Cor-nell 143, Harvard 142, Yale 89, M.I. T. 80, and Michigan 64. The or-der in North America for the insti-tutions that get most foreign stu-dents is Harvard, Columbia, Penn-sylvania; in South America, Penn-sylvania, Cornell, Columbia andOhio; in Europe, Pennsylvania, Col-umbia, Harvard; in Asia, Columbia,Cornell, Yale; in Africa, M. I. T vHarvard; in Australasia, Pennsylva-nia, Harvard.

As for the representation from in-dividual countries that send at leasteight students to any one institution,Harvard leads in Canada; Pennsyl-vania in Central America, Cuba, Bra-zil, Colombia, Great Britain and Ire-land, Holland, Australia and NewZealand; Missouri in Mexico; Cor-nell in the Argentine Republic andChina; Columbia in Germany, Rus-sia and Japan California in India.

Taking the representation of for-eigners at all of the institutions men-tioned, with the exception of Chicago,it is found that the largest delega-tions are sent by the following coun-tries: Canada, 210; Japan, 142;China, 139; Mexico, 90; Cuba, 67;Great Britain and Ireland, 60; Ar-gentine Republic, 56, and India, 54.

MEMBERS OF THE DEUTSCHER VEREIN IN A SCENE FROM THE PLAY.

IN NEW YORK ON NOV. 16.

Arangements for the Appearance of the" Deutscher Verein."

On November 7 the general sale ofseats will begin for the New Yor'tperformance of Meyer-Foerster's"Alt Heidelberg" by the "DeutscherVerein" of Cornell University. Theplay will be performed at the NewGerman Theater, Madison avenueand Fifty-ninth street, on Mondayevening, November 16. Last Decem-ber the Verein produced this play atthe Lyceum in Ithaca in such a wayas to please two large audiences and,as the ALUMNI NEWS said at thattime, to set a standard for all the(other dramatic clubs of the Univer-sity. Naturally the players wishedto repeat their success in a largertown than Ithaca, and when an op-portunity came for them to give theplay in New York city under theauspices of the Association of Ger-man Authors of America, it wasgladly accepted. Virtually the samecast and chorus will repeat the per-formance this year with thp advan-tage of experience and additionaltime for training. Special permis-sion to use the play was obtainedfrom the author, and the players had,as they will a r̂ain have, the assist-ance of the sHge-copy of the playbelonging to the Neues Schauspiel-haus of Berlin. A feature much ap-preciated last year was the singingof German student, songs by the

chorus, a number of the members ofwhich are members also of the Uni-versity Glee Club. There will be noother performance of "Alt Heidel-berg" at the New German Theatrethis season. One week before theNew York performance, namely, onNovember 9, the Verein will presentthe play again in Ithaca.

Music Festival Program..The sixth annual Music Festival

at the University will be held onApril 29 and 30 and May 1. Therewill be five concerts, as follows:

Thursday evening, April 29, Sulli-van's "Golden Legend," with a quar-tet of solists, chorus and orchestra.

Friday afternoon, a miscellaneousconcert, at which the chorus will singfive numbers—three unaccompaniedand two with the orchestra—theOther half of the program to be givenby the orchestra and the soloist(probably Mr. Gogorza).

Saturday afternoon, Pierne's "TheChildren at Bethlehem," by a chorusof 200 children, 7 soloists and orches-tra.

Saturday evening, Verdi's "Aida"with a full cast, chorus and orchestra.

This is the most elaborate programyet undertaken by the Departmentof Music. The works to be givendemand excellent soloists and morethan the usual number. The list ofsoloists will be announced later.

The new members of the chorushave already begun rehearsals andthe entire chorus will begin work on

Monday evening, November 29. Inall parts, excepting the soprano,there are still a few vacancies, whichwill be filled by competition.

A new feature in the 1909 festivalwill be a cantata sung by a chorus of200 children, assisted by a reader,seven soloists and full orchestra. Thechildren's chorus will be organizedimmediately after the Christmas va-cation.

Interest in the Campaign.In the closing days of the political

campaign the interest of faculty andstudents at Cornell in national, stateand local issues was noticeable.Judge Taft addressed a meeting inthe Lvceum theater on Saturdayafternoon; Lewis S. Chanler, theDemocratic candidate for Governor,had been heard in the same place onthe day before. The Civic Club, theCornell Congress and the Republi-can Club of the University hadspeakers from the Faculty and fromout of town on political subjects, andthe Sun ran every morning a columnof telegraphic news of the campaign.On Thursday of last week the Sunconducted a mock election in MorrillHall. Candidates Taft and Hughesreceived a large maj ority of votesboth of the faculty and of the under-graduates. More than 1,700 voteswere polled. On registration daywatchers in the East Hill districtchallenged the right of about twenty-five students to cast their ballots inIthaca on election day, on the groundthat they were not legal residents ofthe city. It is asserted that someof these students are members of theinstructing staff of the University.They were not allowed to register,and the action of the inspectors indenying them this right was upheld,on appeal, by the county court. Uni-versity sentiment generally declinedto regard this as a merely party mat-ter. The Sun argued for the rightof the students to vote, but openedits columns to arguments on bothsides.

Lower Classes Evenly Matched.Freshmen and sophomores met at

football on Friday afternoon andneither side was able to score. Thiswas the second tie in the series ofunderclass contests, the freshmanand sophomore track teams havingscored each 7 1 % points in a meetheld a few days earlier. Friday's

result makes it impossible, withoutanother freshman-sophomore game,to award the Beahan interclass foot-ball trophy, because neither the ju-niors nor the seniors have a team onthe field this fall.

The freshman eleven has not yetbeen defeated. Its record to date isas follows: October 10, Ithaca HighSchool, 14-0; October 17, GeorgeJunior Republic, 6-0; October 24,Starkey Seminary, 10-0; Sopho-mores, 0-0. The team has no othergame scheduled until it meets theUniversity of Pennsylvania fresh-men at Philadelphia on November 21.

The third in the series of under-class contests, the "flag rush/7 washeld on the Armory green on Satur-day evening and was won by thesophomores, who scored 63 hands onthe canvas to 50 hands scored by thefreshmen. M. S. Halliday, Όβ, actedas referee. The only remaining con-test in the underclass series is a base-ball game to be played in the spring.

'Cross-Country Practice.With three weeks more for prac-

tice before the intercollegiate meet,fifteen men are competing in thepractice runs of the Varsity 'cross-country squad. On Wednesday ofthis week the team has a dual meetwith the Yale runners at New Haven.The intercollegiate meet is to be heldat Princeton on November 21. Sevenmen have been eating at the trainingtable, including Captain Young, theonly veteran on the squad. Youngand Taylor, one of last year's secondstring men, are running up to theusual 'varsity standard, and the othermen are doing fair work consideringtheir inexperience. 'Cross-countryrunning as an intercollegiate sportis more important this year than everbefore because the I. C. A. A. A. A.has taken charge of it, and all thecolleges that are members of that as-sociation may now come into themeet. Until this season the sporthas been under the control of a sep-arate association. Seven men willstart for each college and the firstfive to finish will count toward thescore. Last year nine starters wereallowed and six counted. Cornellhas won the meet eight times in thenine years it has been held.

Coach Moakley reports that thefreshman track squad this fall ismuch better than the average of pastvears. The result of the underclass

meet, held ten days ago, was forsome time in doubt, owing to thecloseness of the score and was finallydeclared a tie. Freshmen won firstplace in the quarter-mile, the two-mile, the high hurdles, the low hur-dles and the pole vault. In the quar-ter-mile £reshmen finished one, two,three, four.

STATE COLLEGE BEATEN.

Score, 10 to 4—'Varsity Shows GoodProgress All Around.

By all-around good play the Var-sity eleven on Saturday erased thememory of last year's deίeat byPennsylvania State College. Lastyear State College scored two fieldgoals to Cornell's one touchdown.This year Cornell reversed the story,making two touchdowns to a singlefield goal by Vorhis; the final scorewas 10 to 4.

There were several encouragingelements in Cornell's game, amongthem being the work of the ends andbacks and the strong defensive playof the entire team. Captain Waldermade some of the longest punts ofhis career, and MacArthur and Hurl-burt were fast enough and sureenough in tackling to make themcount for their full value. Waldershowed his power in line-bucking aswell as in punting. Wight, for acenter, displayed uncommon agilityin emergencies. Hoffman and Mac-Arthur made the two touchdownspossible by good handling of forwardpasses. Gardner played quarterbackthrough all but the last minute ofthe game. The line-up was virtuallythe same as in the Vermont game aweek earlier and the team showedthat progress had been made in themeantime.

Ross Hill, '95 (anactive member of the club), as Presi-dent of the University of Missouri,on December 10, and for the enter-tainment of President Schurman,who is expected to come West forthat event.

Allen, '88;Oliver Shiras, '97 Dr. T. J . Wilkin,L. H. Gates, H. G. McDonald andH. W. Smith. These resignations ofmembership were accepted: CharlesP. Brady, '04; Jack Clark, '03; New-ton C. Failor, Όβ; R. W. Fullerton,'04; Curtis Hill, '97; F. C. Lippert,'05; C. R. Osborne, '03; R. C. St.John, '87, and W. A. Wheeler.

It was decided that as many mem-bers of the club as possible shouldattend the Cornell-Chicago footballgame in a body, and the secretarywas instructed to write for ticketsand get railroad rates.

The president appointed the fol-lowing committee to take charge ofthe Cornell concert in St. Louis onDecember 29: Albert T. Terry, J.Howard Holmes and C. W. Gennet,jr. This committee will work withthe tίhree officers of the club, A. H.Little, president; H. T. Ferriss, vice-president, and K. E. White, secre-tary.

Entered as Second-Class Matter at Ithaca, N.Y.

Ithaca, N. Y., November 4, 1908.

Friday, November 6, 2:30 p. m..is the time set for a conference onalumni matters which has been calledby the Board of Directors of the As-sociate Alumni. The Directors wishto have the time of the conferenceemphasized^ for the reason that itwas wrongly given as Saturday morn-ing in an announcement sent by onealumni organization to some of thepersons invited. The conference can-not be held on Saturday morning;the University Trustees are to meetat that time. It will be held on Fri-day afternoon in the President's of-fice in Morrill Hall.

THE NEW COURSE.Professor Og den's figures show

that the new course of lectures insanitary science and public hygieneis attracting and holding the interestof students. Interest has also beenaroused elsewhere than in Ithaca,many inquiries regarding the coursehaving been received from various

parts of the country. CommissionerPorter was probably not over-op-timistic when he said he thought thelectures marked a new epoch. Itwould, as President Schurman haspointed out, require little more thana co-ordination of courses alreadygiven in the University to start herea regular school of sanitary science.The public interest in the subjectmay make it advisable to have such acourse. Commissioner Porter, whosuggested the course of lectures nowin progress, is himself a Cornellian,having studied here in 1876-77. Inhis lecture in the course he said:

"We stand on the threshold of agreat venture. Let us press steadilyforward. Ignorance is no excuse andunpreparedness is no reason for hesi-tating. We must not always delayand wait for the proper time. If thetools we have at hand are not of thebest and better ones cannot be se-cured, then all the more skill andstrength will be needed in their use.So I feel sure that the spirit of to-day, the old Cornell spirit that re-joices in obstacles because of the joyof overcoming them and attaining thegoal, will dominate us in this work."

HONORARY DEGREES.

THE PRESIDENT'S TRIP.

Some alumni associations in theWest may, if they will, arrange formeetings in December so as to havePresident Schurman with them. Asis announced in another column, thePresident will make a long journeynext month, going as far as the Pa-cific Coast. Not all his time will betaken by the engagements he has al-ready made, and it will be possiblefor him to stop at some places on theway that are not named in his itin-

The Cornell chapter of Phi BetaKappa has elected the following offi-cers for the year: President, Pro-fessor James McMahon; vice-presi-dent, Professor Alfred Hayes, jr.;secretary, Professor C. S. Northuptreasurer, Dr. W. B. Carver; regis-trar, G. S. Rogalsky; executive com-mittee, Captain E. L. Phillips andProfessor H. A. Sill.

Up to last week the Treasurer ofthe University had received from tui-tion fees for the first term $172,990and from laboratory, infirmary andother fees $47,786.

Shall They Be Granted by Cornell ?-Let-ter from an Alumnus.

The following letter was receivedfrom a distinguished alumnus of Cor-nell, who is an officer of another greatuniversit}^:

HONORARY DEGREES AT CORNELL.

EDITOR OF THE CORNELL ALUMNI

:NEWS—Sir: The ALUMNI NEWS of

Oct. 14 says that "President Schur-man attended, as representative ofCornell University, the inaugurationof Harry Augustus Garfield as presi-dent of Williams College," and that"The degree of Doctor of Laws wasconferred upon President Schurmanand also upon the presidents of" sev-eral other universities, and upon vari-ous other distinguished persons.

It is not the first time, by anymanner of means, that we have seenPresident Schurman's name men-tioned in connection with such hon-ors, and we have no idea that it willbe the last. But we never see an ac-count of an honorary degree con-ferred upon President Schurman, oron some other member of the Cornellfaculty, without wondering how, inthe face of Cornell's attitude towardhonorary degrees, these gentlemencan bring themselves to accept them.What that attitude is every oneknows. In the early days a gooddeal was said in opposition to thegranting of honorary degrees. Thereasons for this opposition were ap-parent enough at that time:—the in-stitution was a newcomer in the aca-demic world, it had no honors to con-fer, and it had no alumni grown grayin the service of science, art, states-manship, or religion, while the mem-bers of its faculty were the alumniof other universities where honorarydegrees were bestowed upon thosewho were entitled to such distinctions.There were therefore good reasonswhy Cornell should leave these hon-orary degrees alone until she shouldbe old enough to be taken seriouslyin the educational world. That timehas now come these many years, andstill no step is taken to do away wicha very awkward state of affairs' ic:

CORNELL ALUMNI NEWS 67

regard to honorary degrees. Andthis awkwardness becomes more OPJ-barrassing wiiih every degree of thekind accepted by our President orby a member of the faculty or by analumnus of Cornell University.

It is a rule in civilized society thatcourtesies accepted shall be returnedin kind. We of Cornell should eithernot accept such attentions, or elsewe should frankly put ourselves in aposition to return them.

The charge is often made againstus Americans that we are more con-cerned about equality than we areabout freedom. We cannot help sus-pecting that such opposition to hon-orary degrees as still exists amongCornell alumni comes from some suchunworthy sentiment.

ALUMNUS.

The intercollege series in associa-tion football has called out a largenumber of men from almost everycollege in the University. Games areplayed almost every afternoon on theplayground. This is a new sport formost Cornell students, the game hav-ing been introduced and fostered tillnow only by members of the Cosmo-politan Club.

A football mass meeting was heldin Sibley Dome on Thursday after-noon. The attendance was small.President Coulson of the senior classpresided, and an address was madeby Edward Burns, '03, of the coach-ing staff. A second meeting will beheld this week.

Henry H. Bennett, '10, of PortHuron, Mich., has been elected as-sistant manager of baseball, andFrank H. McCormick, '10, of Balti-more, Md., assistant manager of thenavy, for the coming season. Bothare members of the Delta KappaEpsilon fraternity.

The Student Directory, generallyknown as the "student list/' is onsale at the Registrar's office and atthe bookstores. Ten cents a copy ischarged. The list is much more use-ful than in former years because it isnow a telephone as well as a streetdirectory.

Richard Carle was entertained bythe Savage Club on Monday eveningof last week.
