"This condition of unrest and agi'
tation must cease. 1t is not so iInpor'

my opinion the only way to do tails Is
to bring a civil suit. This is the on

The speaker was DR.. w. L. Dudley,
of Vanderbilt, honor guest at the TAN
quet given here Thursday evening by
the Maury County Vanderbilt Alumni
association to celebrate founders
Day" While Or. Dudley modsstly
stated that he was merely giving his
private opinion, the higl position
which he holds at Vanderbilt coiors
his words with authority, ana may pc
said to forecast the action of the
Board Of Trustees in the Vanderbilt
controversy.
Dr. Dudley pitched his statement
on a high plain. Although making an
able argument for the control of the
University by the Board Of Trust, II
was not as "a partisan but as friend
of the school that he spoke. He re-
ferred to the condition OF unrest that
has prevailed at Vanderbilt for the
past few years, said that this ccndi-
ton would come up with every recur-
ring quadrennial period, and that 1t
must be stopped or the life of the Uni
versity would be Slapped.
AS remedy for this evil he pre-
scribed civil suit that would forever.
settle the legal rights of the Board
of Trust and Of the Methodist confer
ence. we must stop saying that
the chancellor is trying to steal the
University" he exclaimed, with more
feeling than shown at any other time
during his address.
The right of the Conference to con-
troll the University was questioned by
DIR. Dudley, who growing reminiscent
referred to his long connection with
Vanderbilt and to the part that the
school has played in Southern edu.
cational life. That the right of Con-
ference to elect the Board of Trust
had been questioned from the very
beginning, was his statement, and
he gave Bishop McTyene as the author
of the first protest, made shortly aft I;
er the school was founded. At that {
time, he said, notice had been served
on Conference that 1t had no tight
to name the trustees and that such
action upon its part would not be tol-
Grated.
In his argument for the control OF .
the school by the Board Of Trust. Or.
referred to Yale, ten members !
Of the Board of Trust of which are /
Congregational ministers and six are
by the alumni and confirm
ed by the Board. He said that no
great university had ever been sue
conducted along narrow de-
lines, and that none ev-
or would be.
In discussing the recent action OF
in naming three members
II the Board Of Trust he declared that
this election could not be considered
IN expression by the entire church;
hat two or three men had dictated
he appointments, as in all big con-
ventions. He asserted that the nj
versity could only be successfully
conducted by men who were trained
or the work, and that to take any
other view was to invite disaster. Re-
yarding the timber from which the
Board of Trust should be selected, he
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1910-06-03

said that only men should be placed
on the Board who were qualified to
fill the position; that geographically
and educationally this was imperative
and that the General Conference
could not act as intelligently In max.
! ing these selections as a Board OF
Trust that was deeply interested in
and thoroughly familiar with the aims
[ of the school.
Athletics
Prior to this, at the beginning of
his speech. DIR. Dudley had spoken on
athletics. He reviewed the work ac-
complished by the Southern Intereol-
legiate Association, of which Wander
bilt was the originator, and said that
the cause of true sportsmanship had
been greatly advanced by the South
ern schools. which have always tax.
en- the lead in such work. He stated
that the national association had
been modelled after the Southern as
ISOLATION, the only difference being
that the Northern schools would not
go as far toward clean athletic as
the Southern schools had gone. DR..
Dudley prefaced his argument by re-
citing his experiences in Columbia,
where Vanderbilt played its premier
baseball game, the opposition being
the Columbia Reds" He told how
he had come here with mine players
and the umpire" and two rooters. tn
game had been close. In the ninth in
ming, with two men out, Vanderbilt
had raped one down third base line
The third sacker let It go by, but the
umpire called it fair and three runs
were Melted. The town had turned
out to mob the umpire, but by hurry
ing into bus and making for the de-
pot the umpire had escaped with his
life. DR.. Dudley had been roughly
handled, and was dragged into the
bus over the knees Of the other play
ers It was this experience that
brought to his mind the necessity for
clean athletics.
