Chartered by Connecticut as nan
sectarian institution and dedicated
to"the general interests Of literature
and science" the college Will pass the
milestone q year from June with
much more than a mere venerable
nod and sigh. It's old, ivy-coVered
buildings and tall dignifled campus
elms belle the spirit that is stirring
beneath its ancient bricks and
trodden flagstones.
Before its distinguished alumni
don caps and gowns to attend the
anniversary services the college
hopes to have realized at least the
necessary funds for an ambitious
building program which includes two
dormitories, q field house, library
and administration building exten-
sion.
In so doing youthful President G..
Keith Funston Is carrying on the
tradition of the colleges late brill
liant president, DR.. Remsen B.
Ogilby. During the latter's pres
idency a dormitory, a gymnasium, a
chemistry laboratory and chapel,
considered among the most beau
tiful, on any college campus were
added. ..
Important as we're these contribu-
tions of DR.. Ogilby, they still rank
second to the intangible changes
wrought by him.

Always we'll known in New
Trinity-formerly Wash
ington College - assumed a new
stature under the force Of DR..
Ogilby's encompassing personality,
and stretched out literally the length
and breadth Of the land to attract
young men of intelligence and
character.
While Cook Dormitory was being
built an engineer asked the president
why he had specified a fireplace in
the rooms.
why, why" he had doomed In his
intense, vibrant voice as his unruly
shock of red hair seemed to become
a little redder, did you ever hear of
a bull session around a radiator?"
And he had burst. into characteristic
peals of throaty laughter.
This anecdote explains perhaps
more adequately than anything
else not only the late presidents
personality but what Trinity has
come to stand for as a small college.
Casting aside any hangovers from
the last century of blindly intel
lectual education, Trinity has also
sought to inspire in its young men
the same sort of attributes of the
mind and character associated, in
staider tempo, with the ancient col
leges of England.
Trinity is spoken Of as small
only in a relative sense. In 1886
its graduating class numbered
little over 100. Today the total
enrolment exceeds 1000. From war
days when Navy Viz trainees domi-
mated the campus the college has

A-A Session Near End
After Adoption Of AT
56-Game Schedule
BY the A.soeiofed Press

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE ALI
America Football Conference meet
ing under direction of its new COM
missioner, Admiral Jonas Ingram,
sailed along smoothly today after
adoption of a 1947 playing schedule
and the signing Of three players,
one of whom jumped from the rival
National League.
The session of club owners and
coaches was expected to conclude
today after routine business parley
following completion yesterday OF
a 56-game chart. The most notable
change in the schedule was the
December 7 closing date, which,
barring sectional ties, would bring
about a December IA championship
game-a week earlier than last sea-
son.
The season will open Friday night,
August 20. with the Los Angeles
Dons meeting the Chicago Rockets
at Chicago's Soldier Field. The
Rockets, coached by Jim Crowley,
the Leagues commissioner in its
1916 inaugural season, will play ali.
seven of their home games at
Soldier Field on Friday nights,
avoiding any conflicting Sunday
dates with the Chicago Cardinals
and Bears of the National League.
Other home games for the Rock
cts: September 10, Buffalo; Septem-
Der 26, Cleveland: October 3, Brook
lyn: October "a, New York; Novem-
ber 7, Baltimore, and November 81,
San Francisco.
The other seven clubs In the ALL
America will announce their shedules
in their home cities at future dates.
Cecil Isbell and Bob Rodenberg,
head men of the new Baltimore
franchise who have completed
4,o00-mile talent hunting tour, re-
ported the signing of Hubert Bechtol,
6-foot 3-inch, 210-pound end from
the University of Texas
Bechtol previously had signed with
the Pittsburgh Steelers-(he was
their No. l draft choice)-but Roden-
berg said the contract was broken
because Bechtol was under age when
the signing took place. Bechtol
waived his minority rights when he
linked the Baltimore pact.
At Pittsburgh, officials of the
Steelers said they planned no action
until the facts of the case had been
investigated.
The Los Angeles Dons announced
the signing of Russ Reader, halfback
from Michigan State, and John
Adretich, former Purdue halfback
who played for the Honolulu War
riors in the Pacific Coast League
last year.

-Four Top Golf Champs

In Masters Event
By Inc As,oe;c,sd Press

AUGUSTA. Ga, April 2-An four
Iiof last years top titleholdersBen
Hogan, Lloyd Mangrum, Ted Bishop
and Smiley Quick-were ready to
add q touch OF golfdom glamor to
the 11th annual Masters tourna-
ment which opens here tomorrow.
Hogan, the PGA. champion and
the leading money winner in 1916,
enjoyed the favorite,s role, together
with Jimmy Demaret, q fellow
Texan, who currently is pacing the
pack in winnings.
The other top-bracket titlists have
been shuttled into darkhorse posi-
tions for the four-day run over the
6,800-yard National course, consid-
cred one of the most beautiful and
most rugged In the country.
Mangrum was 1946's United States
Open victor in double playod
Bishop won the amateur crown and
Quick was the public links cham
pion.
Byron Nelson, another Texan and
twice winner of the Masters, comes
out of retirement for the event. A
combination OF ailments ruined Mel
sons effectiveness last fall and he
stepped aside for rest, after taking
in more than 100000 in the 1915
competitions and coming out on top
in 10 Journeys.
Hogan, who was runnerup in two
masters tournaments, has been here
for two weeks getting in some long
practice sessions. The other favorite,
Demaret, who won the Masters in
1910, seems to be back at the peak
Of his sharpshooting ability.
Bobby Locke, the South African
champion, and Sammy Snead, the
British Open title-holder from
Hot Springs, Va, are scheduled
to reach Augusta In time for the
Masters opening round. They ar
rived in this country by plane yes
|terday from Johannesburg.
Locke barely will have time to be-
come acquainted with the tricky
Masters layout. He told inter-
viewers in New York yesterday,
however, that while he had no idea
how low his card would be, he hoped
to shoot his best brand of golf.

tour. 'I played 81 rounds and aver
