MILLIONS FOR CHANGE OF EAME.

MILLIONS FOR CHANGE OF NAME.
For a number of years there
has been a desire to get
Clemson from its present con-
troll and place it in the full con-
troll of the State, because OF
monetary considerations the
scheme Was impracticable, but
now comes a wealthy member
of the Calhoun family who says
if the full control is taken over
by the State and the name
changed to Calhoun College, in
honor the Great Tribune, it
would be the beneficiary of mil
lions Of dollars.
It would not surprise US if,
before many years the name of
this institution complies with
the wishes of the Calhoun fami
ly; we know there is a strong
sentiment to have the State
annul the contract under the
Clemson will, do away with the
life trustees, and assume full
control of the institution, and
now that there is prospect Of
benefttingi in a financial way the
movement will get stronger.
The Greenville News carries the
following story from Anderson:
"That Clemson College would
receive endowments aggregat-
ing many millions of dollars If
the name of the institution is
changed to Calhoun College and
the college placed wholly under
the control of the State of South
Carolina, was the statement
made tonight by Capt. John G.
Calhoun, grandson of the South
Carolina statesman and oldest
representative OF the Calhoun
family, who is visiting here. He
said that such an arrangement
could be brought about by an
annullment of the contract OF
the State accepting the Clemson
5equest by which the Fort Hill
property would revert to Mrs.
Floride Lee Calhoun, wife Of
Andrew Pickens Calhoun, of
San Antonio. Texas, the lawful
heir of the late Thos. G. Glenn
son. She would. he said, deed
the property back to the State
of South Carolina for sum of
money sufficient to make the
transfer legal. he stated that
money would be no object with
Mrs. Calhoun, the heir, that she
and all the family connection,
would like to see the change of
name and control purely for sen.
timent sake and the institutions
good.
Capt. Calhoun, who retired
from active business some time
ago, and who has since lived in
London and New York, says
that he has known of several
instances where the college
would have received large en-
dowments but for the fact that
the college bore the name of
another than John G. Calhoun,
although it was situated on the
Calhoun home place, and be-
cause the college was controlled
by a set of trustees represent
ing an individual and not the
State.
He isclosely associated with the
philanthropists Of the east who
are giving large sums for educa-
ton, and while he personally is
giving to the education of poor
children in the mountains Of
the Carolinas, he knows that
Clemson College would come IN
for a large share of the endow.
ments.
Capt. Calhoun states that he
is here merely to visit his old
home, that he does not care to
stir up any big agitation for the
changed name and government
of the college but makes these
statements knowing that the
college and South Carolina
would be greatly benefited
thereby"

This matter of color selection is
absolutely vital Many women who
