CurIey Byrd, University Builder

The amazing growth of the University of
Maryland under the 15-year presidency of DR..
Harry Clifton (Curley} Byrd was outlined in an
article by George Kennedy in The Sunday Star.
Something has been happening in Maryland.
Apparently the Thomas Jefferson idea of a State
university, which found such favor in the West,
has come back to the Eastern seaboard.
Among the colonies, Maryland was a laggard
in higher education. King Williams School,
which was chartered in 1896 and reopened after
the Revolution as st. Johns College, has re-
manned small (although Interestingly institution
to this day While the College of Medicine was
founded in Baltimore in 1903 and chartered as
the University of Maryland in 1872, it was not
until 1889 that Maryland developed a complete
university. Then the great So million bequest
of Johns Hopkins, largest individual stockholder
in the Baltimore g. Ohio Railway enabled the
opening of the institution that bears his name.
Curley Byrd played big part in making
the University of Maryland we know today. The
great growth has been almost solely due to his
remarkable ability in getting appropriations for
his institution He is one of the few persons

Young Jones disliked buying clothes
but not food. He willingly paid for a
theater party but shrank from books
He came to the conclusion that he
was niggardly in regard to those neces-
sites which his ancestors had to buy,
but free spender on things his for
bears knew nothing about. He hated
to buy clothes because they did not
have enough money to purchase them.
In his old age he was to purchase a
television set simply because his grand
father had never heard of such thing!
Conservation was the hobby of his
entire line. The destruction of prop
erty was their pet dislike. As firmly as
the French poor cling to the family
clocks, so Jones and his people held
onto anything they purchased. Their
attics we're filled with piles of old maga-
zines dating back to the early years

Prince Georges Reform

have read your editorial in The Star

of Prince Georges have resented the

unheard. Now we must speak out
If the membership rolls of the Prince
Georges County Civic Federation, the
League of Women Voters and the Cit;-
zens' Committee for Good Government
are studied, it will also be found that the
same persons dominate each. It will also
be found that the membership is very
small percentage of the almost 100000
people now living in the county. 1t will
be found that some members of these
groups themselves do not agree with
the policies of the groups. Yet. judging
from the publicity these groups are get
ting, one would think they speak for all
of the people.
Therefore, it is suggested that all CT
the citizens be consulted by means of a
referendum or some other democratic
means before survey is conducted or
before county manager form Of gov
ernment Is initiated The Republican vote
in the last election was not for either
of these issues. but was against the
Democratic Party. which had been in
power too long. The people spoke then.
Let them speak again on this problem.
It is time for the average citizen and
taxpayer to be heard, instead of our lust
hearing about these pressure groups in
the county.

where he was growing old, he conceived
the idea OF Frightening Office life with
flowers.
He went to store and bought
cheap vase of pleasant design and color
ing, one fit to hold roses without attract
ing attention to itself. For other flowers,
other vases: for the rose, only this.
The next day he bought dozen red
roses.
Carefully he filled the vase at the
drinking fountain. Anyone who has
tried to fill vase at drinking foun-
tain knows it is difficult job.
Templeton Jones mastered it only to
find he had more trouble.
The darned thing leaked!
A bright idea came to him. AS he
grew older he did not have so many
bright ideas He was always glad to
have one

you have been wanting to smash a
vase"
He called his associates to witness
the execution.
"All these years have been wanting
to do this" he said, and he held the
vase high in the air and let it drop.
The leaky vase hit the. floor, bounced
a couple of times, and fell to rest.
It was not even cracked.
"I waited too long," said Templeton
Jones with smile of resignation. i

And he picked UP the vase and gently

M. Boussoc's View

We suffered conspicuous defeat in the cold
war last week with the refusal of French indus
trialist, Marcel Boussac, to rent tract of land
for General EiSenhowers headquarters. At first
he agreed to the lease but after what could
hardly be called mature consideration he re-
neged on the ground that the buildings would
spoil the view from his stud farm. NJ Boussac
is a breeder of horses.
Obviously here is man whom we have failed
to convince that this is a matter of survival
And it would probably do no good at all to send
people around to explain to him the gigantic
defense efforts of the Western community, to
review the staggering military budgets being
shoudered by the free nations, to point out the
stifening resistance in his own country. There
probably is only one way to reach such men
tality-and this is just wild guess. If some
impeccably groomed Yankee were to call at the
farm and, with stiff upper lip, inform M. Boussac
that we Americans have given up white-wall tires
for the duration, he might just possibly begin to
understand the seriousness of it all. It might
strike chord in that beauty-loving SOUL
In the meantime, M. BouSSac can be expected
to settle back to enjoy his unobstructed view, If
any whisper of the uproar he has set off comes
to his ears, he will doubtless shrug and comfort
himself that should the Russians heave over the
horizon onto his hard-preserved panorama, he
can always throw himself onto one of those race
horses and go galloping off to the English
Channel. H.

This and That

Templeton Jones had been waiting
all his life to break a vase.
Since childhood he had struggled
to smithereens, but never once had he
succumbed.
A civilized man is Templeton Jones.
The longing came to him at various
times and in many places.
Some one must have reproved him
when he was child. ....
Perhaps it all went back to that old
vase. He remembered the big Chinese
vase which stood by the fireplace SO
long ago.
It was higher than the small Temple
ton Jones, and twice as big around.
There were all sorts of traceries in. red,
yellow and blue winding over the sur
face.
Someone was always warning him to
"let the vase alone"
Perhaps if he had been permitted to
tip it over, for once and all, he would
have knocked the thing out of his
system.
If they had let him alone he could
have looked at fancy and utilitarian
vases as calmly as other people do. In
stead, vase to him became symbol.
Even at the destructive age, however,
young Templeton never broke forth. BY
the age of twelve years he had been
so thoroughly drilled in the subject of
property that articles of all types meant
things to conserve. Could it have been
that his ancestors were speaking through
him? Ancestors do. you know.

Wren epitaph: "If his monument you seek, look
about you" In this generation the City of
Washington has been the beneficiary of two
remarkable university builders, DR.. Byrd and DR..
Cloyd Heck Marvin president of George Wash
ington University.
=. The great growth of DR.. Byrd's institution
was in the period of the teacher shortage and
the CT flood. 1t has been criticized as weak in
the subjects which educators now call the
humanities. But if this is weakness, the uni
versitys strength can be found in it's ability to
meet the practical needs of the State it serves,
such as its leadership in development of agri-
cultural resources If the institution at College
Park follows the development pattern of other
State universities, in another generation it will
be criticized as too intellectual and there will be
barking back to the good old days of Curley
Byrd. -.s
