President Jordan Arrives
President David Starr Jordan arrived
In Pasadena this forenoon and is the
guest of Manager Linnard of the Hotel
Maryland. He spent a large portion of
the day meeting his numerous friends
who called to pay their respects. DR..
Jordan spoke to many of his callers
concerning the proposed women's col
lege for Southern California and took
occasion to state that he will gladly
accept the invitation rendered him to
become a member of it's permanent
board Of trustees. He believes that the
crowded condition of the colleges in
the northern part of the state make
the new institution almost a necessity,
and prophesies that it will be a valu-
able addition to the educational facil-
lties of the state. The necessity of
raising a great sum of money with
which to endow the new school appears
to the Palo Alto president to be the
main present difficulty but not an un-
surmountable one. When some onel
made reference to the football ques-
tion DR.. Jordan smilingly remarked |
that tine game as now played will be
abolished on the Pacific coast as hav-
Ing outgrown its usefulness and 1 doubt
IL it will be played anywhere again in
this country"
DR.. Jordan is much pleased with the
program arranged for his entertain
ment in the Crown City and it will
therefore be carried out as already an
The affair will be strictly
and will last from to 10
o'clock in the west building of the
hotel. 1t is still within the range of
possibility that President Benjamin Ide
of the Berkeley institution will
also be present.
