Who Is This?
By HELEN CIBLO

WIdEN THIS o-year-Olo became mgn
w school student, his father handed
him a biography and said, Read tits
about the man for whom you were named"
The subject of the book, a Methodist
Bishop, had founded an institution Of
learning that was chartered in 1893 by the
Congress of the United States. When he
read the biography, little did the lad in the
photo dream that one day he himself
would be the eighth president of the school
founded by his fathers idol more than six
decades ago..
The boy was born in Cleveland, Ohio.
on September 16, 1904, the eldest Of three
children of a Methodist minister. When
junior in high school, he won the Ohio
State extemporaneous speaking contest.
He also played basketball and was president
of the student council. While at Ohio
Wesleyan University, he travelled extern
sively with a team that lost only three
debates in two years. One of his two
teammates was Arthur Fleming, who later
became Director of Defense Mobilization.
Although he hankered to become an
attorney he remained at Ohio Wesleyan
as alumni secretary after winning his ABB.
there in 1926. A year later, he entered the
University of Michigan Law School, but
was forced to quit because he needed
money.
A friend recommended him for a
teaching job, which he reluctantly accepted
Although his mother had been a school
teacher, he had never wanted to follow in
her footsteps as did his brother, who now
Is president of Chatham College in Pitts
burgh. But once he became a member of
the faculty at Allegheny College, he got a
kick out Of teaching, and soon learned he
had the prerequisites for success in educa-
tion-love for young people, and not be-
coming irritated with them He forget the
law and education became his forte.
In 1892 he married a teacher. They
embarked upon building a house with
total assets of s.. O00 and no visible means
OF raising the balance. When a Mead
vile pa farmer heard of this, he came
to the newlyweds and offered to lend them
all the money they needed to finish the
house. Concentrating the unique real estate
deal, the couple made interest payments
only. They repaid the original loan when
they sold the house IL years later. Their
venture was the beginning Of deep mutual
interest in gardening, architecture and
building. Still the sweethearts they were
in college days. they are now remodeling
their summer retreat on Lake Erie, which
eventually will become their retirement
residence Their son is a student at West
ern Maryland College. They have two
daughters. one Of whom is a substitute
teacher.

Dulles in Spain
10 See Franco

MADRID. Dec. 20 R.-
United States Secretary OF
State Dulles arrived here today
for q five-hour visit with Gen.
eralissimo Franco and other
Spanish ofiicials.
Reliable Spanish informants
said one reason the government
invited him here was to win
American approval Of Q pro-
posed Spanish offensive against
the Moroccan army Of liberia
ton in Ifni.
The Secretary Of State, en-
route home from the NATO
summit conference, landed at
Torrejon Air Base. a new field
built by the United States Stra-
tegic Air Force outside Madrid
which Is operated jointly by
the United States and Spain.
He was greeted by Spanish
Foreign Minister Fernando
Maria Castiella and driven inn
mediately to Gen. Frances
Prado Palace after a review Of
Ia combined American-Spanish
honor guard.
There was no announcement
on the subjects to be discussed
at Prado Palace. But reliable
Spanish informants said these
were the reasons for the Span
ish invitation to visit here:
/. Spain wants to start an
offensive against the irregula:
Moroccan army of liberation
which she claims invaded the
Spanish colony OF Ifni on No.
vember % and won control oi
most Of the enclave on the
Moroccan Coast. The Spaniards
say the irregulars' main bases
are in Morocco. Moroccan ma
tionalists deny forces from Mo-
rocco attacked Ifni. and say
the alleged invaders actually
are Ifnian rebels. Spain wants
American approval for an Of
lfensiye.
2. Spain wants to counter
balance TO some extent the re.
cent state visit Of King Mo-
hammed v Of Morocco to the
United States.
3. Spain wants more finan-
cial assistance from the United
States. She is experiencing an
infiationary wave and at the
same time Is faced with an
expensive military campaign in
Ifni. The Spanish call the
Moroccan irregulars commu-
nist-slanted. part of q Soviet
effort 70 infiltrate the African
Continent. and NATO has just
expressed its concern with such
efforts.
Reports from Paris said Gen.
Franco might bring up again
the question of Spanish mem
hership IN NATO--somethine
to which several NArO men,
bers are opposed. The reports
said Mr.. Dulles probably would
fill in Gen. Franco on the sum-
NIT meeting.
