SPECTACULAR CAREER

OA M ANOAkAIO NEAAkA1GAg
MaSaryk, whose career as pro
feSSor and statesman was one of
the most spectacular in modern
European history, began as a
blacksmith'S apprentice. Before
he retired he was four times
President of Czechoslovakia.
AS a lecturer, he was once a
guest professor at the University
of Chicago and was prominent as
a speaker before many American
philosophic groups during the
years that he was baniShed from
his homeland.
He fought continually for indie
pendence. Almost from the time
of his birth, March 3, 1850, in
Goeding, Moravia, he was noted
for his independent spirit. At
the age of Is he was banished into
exile for this same reason, and
members of his family were
bounded by the authorities. Later
he was sentenced to death for
criticizing the HapSburgs.
He studied at the University of
Vienna and later became a profes-
Sor Of philosophy at Prague. At
Leipzig he married an American
girl, Charlotte Garrigue, whose
father was an insurance official in
Brooklyn, N. Y. She died in 1923.
FORCED TO FLEE
Beginning his political career in
the eighties, Masaryk soon be-
came leader of a political group
named the RealiStS in Vienna,
where he protested against Aus
tria's annexation of Bosnia and
Herzegovina. He was branded a
conSpirator and forced to flee.
His hour of triumph came in
1918, when he entered Prague as
de facto head of a new nation
which was born from the ashes of
the World War. His work, until
December IA, 1885, when he re-
signed the presidency-a post that
had been granted him for life
owing to illness, brought him
worldwide renown.
When MaSaryk received the
news of his election as president,
he was attending a banquet in his
honor by the Slav Society in Wash
ington.
