both as an educator and diplomat, was
born in Scituate, r. l., January I, 1929
He entered Brown University in 1S45

Of modern languages at his alma
mater. He continued to teach for
seven years and then became editor
of the Providence Journal, which work

president Of the University Of Yer
mont in 1866. and in 1871 moved to
Ann Arbor to become president of the
University of Michigan. In the early
sos he served for a time as United
States minister to China and acted as
commissioner in negotiating several
important treaties. He has been a
member of several important interna-
tional commissions and also served for
year as United States minister to
Turkey. But when the important work
of diplomacy was concluded DR.. Angel
has always been glad to return to his
duties at the University Of Michigan.
He has served as head of that Janus
Institution for 35 years, and IL to this
is added his five years service as
president of the University of ver-
mont. 1t makes him the senior presi-
dent of great university in America.
In point of continuous service his rec
ord is eclipsed only by that of Presi-
dent Eliot of Harvard.
