ALUMNI IN TRIBUTE

Former Pupils at George- town Law School Give

Testimonial Dinner.

Sincere tributes of aSection, loyalty and friendship lasting through the associations of 48 years as a teacher of law were accorded Dean George E. Hamilton of the Georgetown Law School at a testimonial dinner given by alumni last night at the Mayflower Hotel in celebrating the sixtieth anniversary of his graduation from Georgetown.

Leaders of the bench and bar of the District of Columbia were among the 900 or more former pupils of the venerable dean who assembled to honor him, not only as the oldest living alumnus of the school, but as one to whom they had looked for guidance and moral support in the years of their early struggle to suc-

cess. Justices of the United States Supreme Court, officials of the Depart- ment of Justice and representatives of the various bar associations were

among the special guests. Chief Justice Pays Tribute.

From Chief Justice Charles E.

Hughes of the Supreme Court came a gracious tribute to the law dean in the form of a message. Regretting his inability to attend the dinner, the Chief Justice wrote: "I desire, how- ever, to be associated with this de- served tribute to this Nestor of the bar whose eminent service in his pro- fession and in the cause of legal edu- cation has given him a distinctive and most enviable position in this com-

yinunity. X join in extending to him warmest congratulations and in the expression of the hope that he may have many years of continued vigor and usefulness.”

As a special mark of their esteem, the alumni unanimously elected Dean Hamilton temporary president of a new Georgetown Law School Alumni Club of Washington.

It was at the age of 11 years that Mr. Hamilton first attended George- town. For 60 years he has engaged in a distinguished law practice here and for some 20 years of his con- nection with the law school he has served as its dean.

Knew Guests as Youths.

As Dean Hamilton gazed about the crowded hall he looked into the faces of men he had known as youths in the 48 classes that have passed under his guidance and instruction since 1885, the year he joined the George- town faculty.

Among them were Prank J. Hogan, ’02. chairman of the Banquet Com- mittee. and Leo A. Rover, ’10, former United States attorney, the toastmas- ter, who were among his brightest and best-liked pupils. There was Martin Conboy", '98. now United States at- torney for the Southern District of New York, who made the address on behalf of 8.000 of Mr. Hamilton's pupils scattered over the country, who Joined in spirit the festivities of the evening.

George McNeir, class of 1881, of New York, a distinguished regent of the university, also was present. Sen- ator John H. Bankhead of Alabama, class of '93, and the younger Sena- tor Joseph C. O'Mahoney of Wyom- ing, class of 1920, were among half a dozen of his pupils in the Seventy- third Congress to welcome the veteran dean.

Proud of Graduates. With emotion, the veteran dean

said it was a matter of pride to him that graduates of the law school have “gone forth annually to enrich ,the citizenship of our country by their standing and influence, and by their records as lawyers, lawmakers and judges."

“We were taught then, and students now are taught,” he said, "that the law Is a profession and not a trade; that the administration of Justice de- pends upon the ability, preparedness and moral strength of the lawyer, and that integrity is the soul of legal counsel, act and service."

For the good that the law school has done, Mr. Hamilton took ho credit upon himself, but accorded it fully to the presidents of Georgetown under whom he had served, to Presi- dent Coleman Nevils, Assistant Dean Hugh J. Fegan and the faculty. He recalled also great names that ranked high among the teachers of former years at Georgetown. Including such men as Justices Miller and Brown of the United States Supreme Court, Justice Martin F. Morris. William M. and Richard T. Merrick, the latter his first law partner; Joseph J. Darlington, R. Ross Perry, Justice Ashley M. Gould and others.

George H. O’Connor, T6, and Matt Horne, ’13. led in singing a special song they had dedicated to Mr. Ham- ilton as the “grand old man of Georgetown,” and the Georgetown Glee Club also joined in the singing of college songs of long ago.

Alumni Present Gift. The presentation of a gift from the

alumni fell to President Nevils. It was a large hammered stiver humidor filled with the dean’s favorite cigars. Then Dr. Nevils presented him with a relic from the college archives, a photo- graph taken of the class of 1872 at the Law School, in which the dean had graduated. The school was then two years old.

The United States Supreme Court was represented by Justice Willis Van Devanter and Justice Pierce Butler. James Crawford Biggs, the Solicitor General and George C. Sweeney, As- sistant Attorney General, represented the Department of Justice.

From the Court of Appeals of the District were Justices Charles H. Robb, Josiah A. Van Orsdel, William Hitz, class of ’98, and D. Lawrence Groner. The District Supreme Court sent Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat. Justices Jen- nings Bailey, Peyton Gordon. Jesse C. Adkins, class of ’99; Oscar R. Luhring, Joseph W. Cox, James M. Proctor, F. Dickinson Letts, Daniel W. O’Donoghue. class of '99; Chief Jus- tice J. Harry Covington, retired, and Justice Wendell Phillips Stafford, class of ’07. retired. Chief Justice Fenton W. Booth of the United States Court of Claims completed the judicial list.

Other special guests were Leslie C. Garnett, class of '99, United States attorney; E. Barrett Prettyman, class of T5, corporation counsel; Rev.

Robert A. Weppner, Jr., graduate and assistant instructor in architecture

at Catholic University, who yesterday won a fellowship In architecture at the American Academy in Rome. He is shown with the winning design for a memorial in Washington. —A. P. Photo.

SIX years of preparation and

study were rewarded yesterday when Robert A. Weppner. jr., 27-year-old Catholic University graduate, won the annual fel-

lowship in architecture of the Amer- ican Academy in Rome.

The coveted Prix de Rome prize, which carries two and a half years of residence at the architectural re-

search center of the academy, was

awarded on the strength of Wepp- ner's showing with a design for a me-

morial in Washington dedicated to the founders of the republic.

Weppner received a bachelor of architecture degree from Catholic University two years ago and since has been an assistant Instructor in architecture at the university. He

completed a four-year course before graduating and during the entire pe- riod worked with the fellowship as a goal.

As an undergraduate, Weppner won the Warren prize in architecture ofTered by Whitney Warren and placed third in a national contest for the Paris prize.

While in Rome, Weppner will be associated with painters, sculptors and architects assembled for co-oper- ative work at the academy in Rome.

Yesterday Weppner was summoned to New York to meet members of the committee which made the Prix de Rome award. He was photographed there beside his design in the Grand Central Art Galleries. Weppner came to Washington from Lakewood, Ohio.

ning by Dr. Gilbert Grosvenor, presi- dent of the National Geographic So-

ciety; Secretary of War George H.

Capt. Albert W. Stevens of the United States Army Air Corps.

Maj. Kepner, one of the Army’s outstanding lighter-than-air pilots, and Capt. Stevens, high altitude photographic expert, will make up the personnel of the flight. The flight, in which It is hoped to reach an alti- tude of 15 miles, will be made in June.

Secretary Dern outlined the history of the use of balloons, especially in connection with their use in time of war.

MaJ. Kepner. the pilot, pointed out that the preparation for the strato-

sphere flight necessarily requires months of careful planning.

The shell of the stratosphere gon- dola. according to Capt. Stevens, has Just been completed. It is 100 Inches in diameter and will carry 20 different scientific recording instruments. Since it will be impossible for one. or even

three persons, to keep track of all that will be going on in this floating laboratory, provision has been made for the automatic registration of practically all readings.
