COLLEGE Gets
NEW TRUSTEES
MRS. DODGE, {. III. BONBRIGHT
PHELPS NEWBERRY AND
ROBINSON NAMED.

Alma College is continuing to ac-
quire the service Of some Of the bet
ter known people Of the country,
whose influence is being felt in So
cial and in educational circles
throughout the United States, as
members Of the Board OF Trustees of
the institution.
Four new trustees have been added
to the board Of trustees recently, who
rank in this class. They are c. H.
Bonbright of Flint, Mrs. John F..
Dodge of Detroit, Phelps Newberw
of Detroit and Watson Robinson Of
New York.
Mr.. Bonbright is one of the busi-
ness leaders Of Flint, and for num-
Der Of years has been prominently
identified with educational and civic
affairs in that city. He is president
of the Imperial Wheel Company Of
Flint, one Of the large wheel con-
Germs of Michigan. He is a Princeton
graduate.
Mrs John +. Dodge, the widow of
the late John f. Dodge, one Of the
brothers who gained fame as the
manufacturers of Dodge automobiles,
is highly interested in social and ed
ucational work, and is held in high
regard in the city Of Detroit. She is
the fourth woman to be made men,
Der Of the Board of Trustees.
Phelps Newberry is one of De-
troit's rising young men, whose
Alma Mater is Yale University. He
was chairman of the recent Alma
College endowment drive in Detroit,
and has headed many other worthy
causes in that city. He is the son of
Senator and Mrs. Truman II. New
berry.
Watson 3. Robinson is the third
Alma Alumnus to be made a men,
bcr of the Board of Trustees. He is
the son Of Mr.. and Mrs. j. w. Rob-
insoh of this city, and during the
years that he has been in New York
has been highly successful in business
fields.
There is no question but what the
addition of Mrs. Dodge, c. II. Bon
bright, Phelps Newberry and Mr..
Robinson will greatly increase the
strength and capacity of the Board
of Trustees of Alma College, at a
time when the Presbyterian institu-
ton is seemingly about to embark on
new era Of development and pro-
grcss.

That the city Of Alma will not at
tempt to stage a Fourth of July cele-

advisable not to go ahead with an
elaborate celebration such as the city
would want if one was to be held.
