As first disclosed in this col
nmn, three weeks ago, ancient st.
Johns College at Annapolis, the
proud cinderella of all Maryland
colleges, has had a face lifting, due
to the generosity of 34-year-old
Paul Mellon, son of the late An
drew Mellon. More of the poverty

Buchanan he would back a re-
building and repair program, very
sOrely needed. to the extent of
$250,000. He would, in a word pay
all Of the bills covering improve
ment deemed essential to that ex-
tent. This is 100000 more than
originally reported here.
How young Mellon happened to
open up his purse to aid this col
1ege which educated Francis
Scott Key and was founded by
British King William, is a story
with the flavor of fiction. For
years, while Barr and Buchanan
struggled manfully to obtain funds
from the State Legislature, the
best they could hope for was to
catch occasional crumbs from the
table of more Opulent University
of Maryland, under which Curly
Byrd has become a potent political
force.
On top of what the State Legisla-
ture doled out lavishly to the U.
of NJ, the WPA in Washington
heaped endless thousands for en-
tire new buildings and vast cam
pus enlargements. Meanwhile,
and right across the street from
st. Johns the U. S. Naval Academy
was bristling with new activity
as the threat of war gave it new
importance. But st. Johns only
dealt in dead languages, played no
intercollegiate football, and was
considered a thing of the past.
Strangely enough this past, and
the illustrious names surrounding
the colleges history, awakened the
interest of LIFE Editor Henry B.
Luce. The upshot was that in
1889 LIFE published an illustrated
account of this Maryland institu-

We are getting tough about this
