Hendrie, Yale ’51, of Sound Beach, Conn., whose gift of one hundred dollars to the Yale Mission was recorded last week, and whose fre- quent gifts of thousands towards the building fund of the Yale Law School have been recorded from time to time in the last two or three years, has added still further to the Law School’s monies. Within the last two or three days, Mr. Hendrie has sent to Mr. W. W. Farnam, the Treasurer of the Univer- sity, a check for ten thousand dollars ($10,000) to be added to the fund for completing the Yale Law School Build- ing. This brings. matters to a point where the friends of the School are al- ready thinking of the completed build- ing. But ten or fifteen thousand dol- lars more is said to be needed. | Mr. Hendrie’s contributions have come in very quietly from time to time, and the total reached by them has not been known to most people. An im- portant subscription was overlooked last week, when the total was figured. Dean Wayland informs the WEEKLY that the contributions of Mr. Hendrie to the Law School, including this last gift, have now reached $60,000. YALE WINS IN DEBATE. 4 Z Princeton Beaten in a Well Fought Contest. Although it was Princeton’s turn to win at debate this year, Yale was able to break the precedent and establish a record of two successive victories over her adversary, besides making the score on debates three to two in her favor. The contest which was held in Col- lege Street Hall on Tuesday evening, Dec. 6, was well fought out and the audience was much divided in opinion when the judges retired for their deci- sion. They had listened to remarkably well-prepared speakers on both sides, who had said what they were there to say, well, though seldom or never approaching oratory. Princeton un- doubtedly was the more polished, all things considered. Yale was earnest, logical and convincing, and in the re- buttals drove home the points she had made in the opening debate, taking advantage of the weak spots in her opponent’s armor. Both sides met squarely on the inter- pretation of the question and the atten- tion of a listener -was given no opportunity to lag, because of the fre- quent departure made by a speaker from the set program, to attack the argu- ments of his predecessor.
