Tappan's Hope
For University
Now Realized
(Material for this series has been
furnished by Dr. Frank E. Robbins,
Assistant to the President.)
The dream of Henry Phillip Tap-
pan, Michigan's second. presidengt, to
create "an American university, de-
serving the name" will be well on the
way to realization on Oct. 27 when
the tenth anniversary of President
Ruthven's service to the University
is celebrated in Yost Field House.
Although his ideas were considered
too "radical" for his- time, President
Tappan is today given much of the
credit for converting a small mid-
western college into one of America's
greatest universities within the short
space of 11 years.
A devout believer in educational
systems maintained by the state, Dr.
Tappan became president of the
University in 1852 after faculty mem-
bers had alternated in the position
since its earliest days.
He was born of mixed Dutch and
Huguenot parents on April 18, 1805
in Rhinebeck, New York. Only 16
years old when he entered Union
College, he received his bachelor's
degree in 1825. For a while he was a
Congregational minister; then he be-
became Professor of Intellectual and
Moral Philosophy at the University
of the City of New York.
In 1863, President Tappan was
forced to leave tle University be-
cause of disagreement over his edu-
cational policies. He spent the re-
nainder of his life in Vevey, Switzer-
land where he died in 1881.

which had no warrant number."
Further questioning by Rapp brought
out the fact that Rempp had spoken
to the county supervisor and had
asked for an investigation, which
was granted.
According to Remp3p, Gibb had
told him that two checks were stolen
from his desk drawer and that he
would get the money in shortly.
These checks were not in the records
but Gibb had told Rempp that his
friends were helping him and that
everything would be straightened out.
The amount of the checks was $3,-
969.56.

y with bombs bursting over

Trad.; chairman of the organ-
is adament in his plea for
d interest in this non-sectar-
ifist movement.
basic th'esis of pacifism is

that human unity cannot be attained
by violence, which by nature drives
men apart, but must be sought
through persuasion," this according;
to Mr. Scott is the nucleus of the
program with which this interna-
tional Fellowship is concerned.
The American Fellowship which
consists of numerous small groups,
take their, initiative. and inspiration
under the guidance of the national'
leadership and those chapters in oth-
er countries of the world Witha
sincere desire to' emphasize his
points, William Scott asserted that,
"We are concerned with formulation
and discussion of our nation's foreign
palicy, with resolving group anti-
pathies among students, and with our
own preparation in the eventuality
of war."
The scope of the organization is
wide enough to include such sociolog-
ical problems as racial animosities,
and prejudices, religious divisions,
and the struggle of economic classes.
The chairman explained that the
problems are always two-sided, and.
reconeiliation has to work on both
sides.r
On campus the group meets Tues-
day at 7 p.m. in the Lane Hall Fire-
place Room, and is open to any who
are concerned with the program and
its attitudes.
