Columbia's Kirk and Pusey Share Picnic

President Pusey was guest of honor at Columbia's sixth annual Homecoming celebration last Saturday, where amid festive surroundings of bunting and banners, he joined with Columbia President Grayson Kirk and over 2,500 Homecoming alumni in group singing.

After sharing a box lunch, the two presidents exchanged short speeches. Kirk was delighted that ". . . in the midst of all his new activities (President Pusey) could come to the game today." After mildly hoping that Columbia might be victorious, he yielded the platform.

"Whenever Columbia and Harvard get together we are in the fellowship of ancient, venerable, and distinguished universities," said Pusey. He went on, also mildly, to hope that Columbia might not be victorious.
