At the meeting of the Yale Corpora-
tion on Thursday, March 16, the resig-
nation of Prof. James M. Hoppin, Yale
"40, from the professorship of the His-
tory of Art, was accepted and he was
asked to continue his connection with
the University as Professor Emeritus.
Besides the appointment ‘of new tutors
and the advancement of assistants noted
in another column, the Corporation, be-
ing in favor of the erection on the Cam-
pus of a statue to Nathan Hale, ap-
pointed the following Committee to take

From one end of the land to the other,

found, Fownes’ Gloves are the recognized
standard of merit and fashion. They are

driving, or golfing — for all occasions and
all purposes.

bull, Norwich, Conn; George D. Sey-
mour, and Lewis S. Welch, ’89, New
Haven.
Following the routine work there was
a general discussion of the Presidency
situation, biit no action was taken.
The Scrub Crews.
The regular work of the various
class and “scrub” crews, which to-
gether compose the Dunham Boat Club
has been begun and already ten crew
squads have been organized. Several
others will be formed and the final
number will probably be about the same
as last year, sixteen in all.
The Athletic Committee of Harvard
has decided that they will not allow a
crew to race the Dunham Crew at the
Yale Spring Regatta, at Lake Whitney,
May 2oth, as was expected. It is pios-
sible, however, that the Dunham Crew
may meet the Weld and Newell Crews
of Harvard in a triangular race, on the
Charles River sometime in May.
