PAYS TRIBUTE
TOMEMORYOF
BRECKENRIDGE

Austin, Texas, Jan. 3-The death
al san Antonio OF George ". Brack-
enridges who was a member Of the
board Of regents OF the University Of
Texas, IS deplored by president r. =.
Nins0n Of that Institution and mem
bers OF the faculty. Commenting upon
Alr. Breckenridge death, DR.. Vinson
made this statement:
Il am greatly distressed to hear OF
the sudden death Of Mr.. Breckenridge
While I have not been expecting him
TO live very much longer, his death
come with a beWildering suddenness
I recently spent practically two weeks
with him in his home since his re-
appointment as & member Of the
board Of regents, and found him so
completely absorbed in new plans for
the university that Il is difficult for
me to adjust myself to the necessity
OF carrying out these plans without
the benefit Of his personal counsel
and advice
1T is a rare thing for any institu-
ton TO have a friend whom. though
necessarily absorbed in his own bust
ness interests which were Of large
magnitude, yet was able and willing
to give intelligent consideration and
really passionate devotion 10 its
affairs over long period Of time.
as 4r. Breckenridge served the Uni
Versity Of Texas His interest in and
value 20 the institution were in no
degree affected by his membership
on the board OF regents. for he served
willingly during the period OF his
retirement from the board as during
the time Of his membership.
His ability - comprehend the
needs Of the university is too seldom
found in active business men He had
passion Tor education TO which he
devoted the strength Of a powerful
intellect and 10 which he gave OF his
means with liberality rarely
eQualed- The University Of Texas has
lost in his death one of its outstand-
ing friends and must now face hard
er tasks without the benefit Of his
vision, courage and advice"
