RICHMOND, Va, May 28.-Halt
a century as president of the same
college is the record of DR.. Frederic
William Boatwright of the Univer-
sity of Richmond.
And to make his record more dis
tinguished, both man and university
are in remarkably good condition.
Greetings from American colleges
and universities will be extended to
him at dinner here Saturday Gel
ebrating the anniversary, by DR.
Guy E. Snavely, New York, execu-
tive director of the Association OF
American Colleges. Arrangements
have been completed to accommo-
date $50 guests at the banquet
which Gov. Darden and other State
and city leaders will attend.
DR.. Boatwright is the oldest uni
versity president in America from
point of service.
DR.. Boatwright's n years do not
show in his clear eyes. His step is
light and quick, for which he may
thank in part his hobbies of fishing
hunting and woodchopping. The
lines about his eyes and mouth show
a sense of humor which has been
faithful through the trial to be en-
dured before any one can write my
golden anniversary" on the black
board.
: Through Wars, Depressions.
Richmond's university, now more
than 100 years of age, has known q
vigorous and second growth. DR..
Boatwright has steered it through
depressions and wars. During his
tenure it has expanded from a
small mems college to a large uni
versity with a woman's college on
the campus.
Looking back DR.. Boatwright sums
up his one-university career as "a
great experience-without any re-
grets that I stayed here"
Asked if he felt he had been able
to carry out most of the things he
had intended or wanted to do he re-
piled: II presented to the trustees
a few years ago program I thought
we ought to carry through to make
the college a balanced liberal arts
college. When we complete our
present campaign for $1,0o0 No, and

President Bootwright Reaches
5Oth Year at Richmond u.

I have every reason to believe that
it will be done successfully, we will
have everything for that liberal arts
program-so far as material equip
ment is concerned-except a fine
arts building"
No Idea of Such Honor.
When at 26 and a professor of
modern languages at Richmond
College. DR.. Boatwright was told by
trustee he had Just been elected
president, he was astounded. Il
had no idea of ever being president.
I had planned for life of scholar
ship"
That election caused considerable
repercussion on the campus. Some
of the faculty resigned. A small
clique of students and a few pro-
fessors burned the new president in
efngy and even held mock burial"
for the college.
Chief mourner" at that burial
was student who afterward be-
came a close friend of DR.. Boat
wright and who, when the Univer-
sity of Richmond honors the presi-
dent with golden anniversary din
ner June 2, will be among the
speakers. He is Col. Thomas B. Nc
Adams, president of the Union Trust
Co. of Baltimore and former Rich
monder, who has helped guide the
destinies of the institution.
Happy Over Success.
Winning over those who were
against me in the beginning was
one of my happiest experiences" Dr..
Boatwright recalls.
Development of the individual,
with emphasis on character, he be-
lieves, is of prime importance in
education. II do not agree with
some folks who think development
of intellectual power is all of edit
cation. I am a great believer in
development of character. I think
it is taught indirectly, through in
eistence on doing times on time and
meeting things in an honest and
straightforward fashion. Character
is built like a coral insect builds an
island, little bit at a time from
day to day."
After all, the educator said, edu-
cation is not successful if it doesn't
human beings for greater
usefulness in society.
