Princeton, Jan. 13:-The election
OF DR.. John Grier Hibben as presi-
dent OF Princeton university, which
has been without official head since
he resignation of Woodrow Wilson
Oct. 20. 1910, Is pleasing to un-
dergraduates ana alumni alike.
Jack Hibben Is the name by which
the new president has been known
among Princeton men from the
time that his own class, '82. entered
as freshmen down to the present
time. In the twenty-one years that
he has been q member OF the uni
versity faculty DIR. Hibben has often
been member of the committees
that come In close touch with the
Undergraduates His reputation Of
exercising authority has never been
that OF a lax disciplfnarian, nor has
It been that Of an opinionated man.
In the student mind he has stood
for the square deal from the fac
|uity. 1t was an open secret In
Princeton at the time OF the internal
difficulties a few years ago that Dr..
Hibben stood with Dean Weet of the
graduate school in the division
against the ideas OF ex-President
Woodrow Wilson. The inference
that Princeton men seem to be draw
ing from DR.. Hibben's election Is
rhat the much argued quad system
has been permanently abandoned BY
the trustees. DR.. Hibhen was born
IN Peoria, lin, April 10. 1861, the
son OF the Reg. Samuel Hibben.

SCHOOL BOARD
Collins Says Appointive
Boards Unconstitutional.
fFrom the NEWS Correspondent

fFTom the NEWS C0TysSPohdeHssj 8
Trenton, Jan. 13:-Former SUI
preme Court Justice Gilbert Collins
has rendered an opinion to the
Board of Education of Bayonne that
the Law passed by the last legisia-
ture providing for the appointment
Hof school boards of nine members by
the mayor OF municipalities In his
view is unconstitutional. Mayor
Cronin, of Bayonne, insists on acting
according to the new statute and de-
clares he will name a new board OF
nine members. Mr.. Collins has adj
vised the old hoard to ignore the
1911 act and to organize under the
old law. Following q similar situa-
tion in Hoboken. this will undoubt-
edly lead to a test of the law In the
courts. The act Is one of the reform
school laws passed as the result or
the public school investigation last
year by Senate committee. Mr..
Collins's ground for holding 1t uu-
constitutional is that 1t is special
legislation because 1t exempts from
Its provisions cities that at the time
of It's approval had school boards of
less than nine members.
