YALE PLANS TO HONOR TWO EARLY GRADUATES

New Haven, Conn., March 27--President James Rowland Angell of Yale an nounced today that the Corporation had voted to honor the memory of two Yale graduates of the eighteenth century, who became the first presidents of Princeton and Dartmouth, by naming the dormitory buildings now located at York and Library Streets. Dickinson Hall and Wheelock Hall. Funds for the erection of these buildings were provid by a bequest made to Yale by the late M. Judson of Bridgeport. Conn

Jonathan Dickinson, who took his Yale A B in 1706, took the lead in establishing the College of New Jersey, which later became Princeton University, and served as its first president. The newly founded college was established in Dickinson's house at Elizabethtown, N. J. in May 1747. It was not removed to Princeton until a decade later. A majority of the first Board of Trustees of Princeton, and Dickinson's two successors in the president's chair, Aaron Burr and Jonathan Edwards, were also Yale graduates.

Yale's other contribution to an institution now regarded as a rival of the Blue was made in the person of Eleazar Wheelock, of the Class of 1733, first president of Dartmouth College. After his graduation Wheelock conducted a school in his home at Lebanon, Conn. In 1743 a Christian Mohegan Indian was admitted to the school and proved such a promising pupil that Wheelock decided to open a regular school to train Indians
