Brunswick, Me-, Oct. 13.-(SpeciaD.-
When Bowdoin College opened this fall
there were many changes in the per-
sonnet Of the faculty. Six former pro-
fessors and instructors had left and
their places had been taken by new
men in five cases, while in the SIXTH
that of the late Prof. Franklin G. Rob-
inson OF the department of chemistry,
the vacancy had been filled by promot-
ing men in the department.
To fill the place made vacant in the
department of history and political
science, caused by the departure of
Prof. Allen Johnson, who went to Yale,
Charles Howard McIlwain has been
chosen. Prof. McIlwain fitted for COL
lege at the Kiskiminitas Spring School
in Western Pennsylvania and in 1894
he graduated from Princeton. He
studied law and in 1897 was admitted
tc the bar in Allegheny County, Penn.
soon after that he accepted a position
as instructor in his old preparatory
school and taught there for the next
three years. For the next two years
he studied in the Harvard Graduate
School and in 1903 became professor of
history in Miami University, Oxford.
OHIO. Here he remained until 1905
wnen he became preceptor in history
and politics at Princeton where he
remained until 1905 when he became
preceptor in history and politics at
princeton. where he was when called to
BoWdoin. At Princeton last year he
was voted the most popular of the fifty
preceptors in the University Prof.
Mc1lwain has written an historical es-
say entitled THE High Court of Parli-
ament and its Supremacy"
Prof. McIlwain will have as his assis-
tant to succeed Jonathan F. Scot. who
resigned to go to the University of
Chicago, Frederick Duncalf. Mr.. Dun

caster. Wis, high school. He gradu-
ated from BelOit College in 1904 and for

Texas. Mr. Duncalf is firm believer
in the preceptorial method and plans
to carry on the same system which was
started by Mr.. Scott.
To succeed Prof. Hudson B. Hastings,
who resigned to enter business, Henry
B. Alvord, a classmate- of Prof Hast
ings, at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology was selected. Mr. Alvord
graduated from the Weymouth High
school and since graduating from NJ. l.

sor in economics to succeed Prof Henry

became instructor in economics and
politics at Cornell last year.
One of Bowdoin's greatest losses this
year was that of Prof. William T. Fost-
err, who resigned to become president Of
Reed Institute. He has been succeeded
at professor of English and Argumen-
tation bv William Hawley Davis. Mr..
Davis graduated from the Pennsylva-
MIA State Normal school in 1897 and
for the next four years taught in the
district schools in that state. He then
entered Harvard graduating in 1905.
During his course he was prominent in
debating. For the next three years
Prof. Davis taught in private high
school in New York and at the end of
that time received an A. NJ. from Har-
ward. Since 1908 Prof. Davis has been
in charge of the department of Public
Speaking at the University of Kansas.
All five of these new men have al
ready made good with the undergradu-
ates at Bowdoin and large numbers of
students have selected their courses for
this semester.
