Gifts and, Bequests

THE Dartmouth Development Council, working steadily to strengthen the College's endowment, last month announced a number of gifts and bequests that have recently been added to Dartmouth's capital resources.

The Arbuckle-Jamison Foundation of New York City has made a grant of $10,000 to provide scholarship aid for worthy students. The Albert O. Trostel Foundation of Milwaukee has initiated the Samuel A. Adams ('30) Memorial Fund with a sum of $500. Another memorial, the George Margulis Scholarship Fund, has trebled in size during the past year and now stands at $9,750. The bequest of Louise Rollins Tyler of Philadelphia, widow of Richard K. Tyler '90, has established an unrestricted fund amounting to $9,710.

Dartmouth alumni clubs and associations are continuing their efforts to build up scholarship endowment funds. Within the past few months $14,558 has been added by ten of the most active organizations. Among the leaders in this program are: Greater New York Fund, totaling $16,242, with recent additions of $7,650; Toledo Fund, totaling $4,372, with additions of $1,340; Chicago Fund, totaling $23,170, with recent additions of $614; Alumni Association of the Northwest (Twin Cities) Fund, totaling $9,793, with additions of $1,000; Samuel L. Barnes ('07) Memorial Fund, for scholarships for boys from the Pacific Northwest, totaling $3,188, with additions of $322; and the Colorado-Dartmouth Fund, largest of the alumni club endowments, totaling $124,598, with recent additions of 11,350.

During the month of March the Dartmouth Development Council will mail to all alumni a printed report from the Council's chairman, Sigurd S. Larmon '14. The report will outline the Development Council's program and will answer the questions most frequently asked concerning Dartmouth's financial situation.
