FROM THE PRESIDENT . .
HE first two and a half months of the campaign are now over.
Although the returns are not all in as I write this in the middle
of January, it is clear that our total will be in excess of half a million
dollars. This is an encouraging start, but it is only a start. It means
that we have laid a good foundation for our work during the rest
of the year. It also means that there is a lot of work yet to be done
between now and June.

T

Contributions have been received from a little over a thousand of
our eiarht
thousand alumni. An additional two hundred have been
o
heard from, most of whom have indicated they were not ready to
make their gifts but would do so before June. W ith eight thousand
alumni on our rolls this means that only a small fraction of our total alumni body has been heard
from. In some cases this may be due to the delay we all occasionally indulge in when signing
checks; in most cases, however, it means that the solicitors have not yet reached them. This
indicates the size of the job still ahead of us in getting subscriptions from the rest of the Swarthmore family.
Two other committees are just beginning to swing into action. The Swarthmore Borough
Committee will have just started its work by the time you read this article. W ith Leonard Ashton
as Chairman, a committee of some forty or fifty residents of Swarthmore has been formed. The
Parents’ Committee is just beginning to reach in its first mailing the growing list of non-alumni
parents whose names and addresses we have been slowly compiling and checking from student
records of years past. During the remainder of this year the various regional committees will
follow up these original letters. I should also mention that the Special Gifts Committee is slowly
but surely increasing the number of people on its list and is meeting with increased success in its
program for interesting its particular clientele in making substantial gifts to this campaign.
I think you will be interested to know that of the sums received so far, about one-half have
come in as unrestricted gifts to be allocated to the purposes of the campaign at the discretion
of the Board of Managers. In the restricted gifts group there have been some interesting contri­
butions. Over $100,000 has been given to help us complete the addition to the Beardsley
Engineering Building and as a result we expect this important addition to our engineering
facilities to be completed some time this spring. Several substantial funds have been started in
the names of the donors in order that further additions can be made during the course of the
campaign until the funds reach such a size that they can be designated for specific purposes to be
agreed upon between the donor and the college.
Large donations have been made to start the following funds; the Paul M. Pearson Fund,
where the donors have expressed an interest in building this fund up to a point where it will
support a new professorship in the English Department; the establishment of a scholarship by
Mrs. Donald R. Ferguson in honor of her husband of the Class of 1912 who died in the recent
war; the establishment of the Henry C. and J. Archer Turner Professorship in Engineering by
members of the Turner family in honor of these two distinguished brothers; a fund donated by
Mrs. Richard Kain to be used to advance musical education at Swarthmore in honor of her
mother, Philena Lippincott Yerkes; and a very substantial increase to the Lydia C. Biddle Fund
to be used in promoting the work of the Friends Historical Library. These are only a few of the
many specific funds that have been established, but they are indicative of the varied interests and
generosity of our alumni.

REPORT ON THE CAMPAIGN
One of the most heart-warmmg aspects of this campaign are the many letters that we receive,
containing expressions of confidence and enthusiasm for what we are trying to do here at the
college. I should just like to quote one or two from some typical letters. One comes from a mem­
ber of the Class of 1911 and says in part: “I have a deep affection for and an abiding faith in
Swarthmore. I wish that I and my children had spent four years there. I would have been so
proud to have earned its degree. Its policies are so sound and its faculty so approachable ” An­
other from a recent graduate of the Class of 1946 writes: “Swarthmore means very much to me;
it has given me so much in education, friendship and happiness, which I can’t begin to pay for.
I do hope that my contribution will help to benefit many future Swarthmoreans and I pledge
to continue support in accordance with my circumstances.” Another from a prominent Philadel­
phian says. As to the future years of the campaign, I make no commitment except to keep an
open mind, an open heart, and a deep interest in the work of the college. Thanks for all you
J°hn are doing. It is an arduous task and you deserve every support.”
We have also received our normal quota of blasts and denunciations concerning what we are
trying to do. These letters are very few in number, but in a sense I am sure they are good for us.
They make us realize that a great deal still needs to be done to inform our alumni and friends
as to exactly what goes on at the college and the policies under which we operate and why. Of
course, even with the fullest of explanations, there are bound to be some who will disagree with
us. This is to be expected, for one of the consequences of taking a position on any issue is to
create opposition from those who do not agree. But I suspect the quickest way to raise the great­
est opposition would be to refuse to do what we think is right and best for the college. As this
campaign goes on, the many contacts that are developed and conversations about the college
that inevitably ensue will undoubtedly reduce our loyal opposition even more in numbers.
Our plans for the remainder of the year are simple. Regional committees will, of course, con­
tinue their efforts to secure subscriptions from our alumni and friends who have not yet been
reached. An intensive effort on this score will certainly be made during the spring months,
although efforts will not cease between now and then. On February 15th (just about" the time
you will be reading this article) the Philadelphia Alumni Club annual banquet will be held
on the campus of Swarthmore. At that time we propose to make a public announcement as to
the status of the campaign and at the same time announce our specific objective for June 14th,
which marks the end of this first year’s efforts. Shortly thereafter we will prepare a full statement
on the money that has been received by regions and by classes, listing the names of those who
have contributed to the campaign so far, the totals contributed by each of the classes, and the
amounts received from outside sources, and a list of the specific funds that have been established.
There have been so many requests for this kind of information that we will send all of you
this detailed statement in March or April of this year.
In closing this report to you, I do want to use this medium to say a few words specifically for
those of you who are direct workers in this campaign. Your efforts and enthusiasm have exceeded
our wildest hopes. It is also my impression that many of you have rather enjoyed your cal's as
solicitors. I am also fully aware that it has been a time-consuming and sometimes a disappointing
business. The various class officers have written excellent letters and the various regional com­
mittees and local solicitors have on the whole made a magnificent showing. Much yet remains to
be accomplished. The initiative and imagination that you have all displayed so far convinces me
that'by June we will have made an excellent record for the first year.
John W. Nason.

TWO NEW BOARD MEMBERS

N ora R. Booth ’32

Howard S. T urner ’33

aT

ITS regular Annual Meeting on December 3,
1946 the Board of Managers elected to mem­
bership Nora R. Booth ’32 and Howard S. Turner
’33. Both of these alumni have maintained an active
interest in the affairs of the College since their
undergraduate days. Miss Booth will serve as an
official Alumni Representative and takes the place
of Anna Oppenlander Eberle ’13, whose regular
four year term ended in December, while Mr.
Turner was chosen to fill the unexpired term
caused by the death of his father J. Archer Turner
’05.
Nora Booth entered Swarthmore from Northfield Seminary and immediately distinguished her­
self as an outstanding student and as an under­
graduate leader. She was a member of Gwimp,
Mortar Board and P hi, Beta Kappa, and in her
Senior year was President of the Womans’ Student
Government Association. From 1933 until 1936
she served as an Assistant to the Dean of Women

and in 1937 received her Master’s Degree at Colum­
bia University.- In the fall of 1937 Miss Booth re­
turned to Swarthmore to serve in the capacity of
Assistant Dean of Women in charge of Vocational
Guidance and Placement for Women. In 1942
she left Swarthmore to take an executive position
in the Employee Relations Office of the OPA in
Washington.
Mr. Turner came to Swarthmore from George
School in the fall of 1929. As an undergraduate he
took an active part in dramatics and in Junior
Varsity soccer and lacrosse. He is a member of Phi
Kappa Psi. In 1936 he received his Ph.D. from
Massachusetts Institute of Technology where he
majored in organic chemistry and minored in
chemical engineering. For the past ten years he has
been in the employ of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours
and Company as research chemist. Since 1942 he
has been in the Technical Division of the Rayon
Department of that Company and now carried the
responsibility as Field Research Supervisor for
development work on new films.
Since graduation Mr. Turner has taken an active
interest in the alumni affairs of the College and
was a member of the Alumni Council from Zone I
from 1943—1946. He is the present Chairman of
the Alumni Committee on Chemistry and has
served as Alumni Fund Chairman in 1945 and as
a member of the Joint Board, Faculty, Alumni
Committee on Public Relations and Gifts.
Mr. Turner was chairman of the Economics
Discussion group 1943-44 and currently is a mem­
ber of the Swarthmore Borough Council and the
National Research Council sub committee on
Plastics.

JOHN STOKES CLEMENT
New Campaign Chairman

T

HE new General Chairman of Swarthmore’s $5,000,000
Campaign is John Stokes Clement, ’08, of Jenkintown, Pa.
In welcoming him to fill the place left vacant by J . Archer
Turner’s untimely death on November 1st, the College turns
to a devoted and a very able Swarthmorean. John Clement will­
ingly accepted the assignment to serve under Richard Slocum,
’22, as chairman of the Montgomery County section of the
Eastern Pennsylvania Region. Later he agreed to serve also on
the Special Gifts Committee. In assuming the even greater re­
sponsibilities as General Chairman, he declares that “ I will do
the very best I can, to the limit of my strength and my abilities.
I feel that no one can ever repay his debt to Swarthmore ade­
quately, and now, when the college needs help, I am glad to be
of service.”
John Clement came to Swarthmore from George School in 1904, and although he
was away from college for more than a year, he graduated with the rest of his class in 1908.
This meant a heavy program of study, but in spite of this he found time to play varsity
basketball, serving as captain in 1908. The Book and Key House was completed in 1908
and John Clement was one of that first group of men to be tapped on the campus in a
ceremony which later became traditional. He was a member of Delta Upsilon. Perhaps most
important of all, he met Ada Graham, ’07, who later became his wife.
After leaving Swarthmore he started his career at the Hess Bright Manufacturing Com­
pany, which later became the SKF Industries. In 19 13 he joined the Congoleum Nairn
Company, and from 1914 to 1920 he served as sales manager. It was in 1920 that he left
to start his own business which was and still is the thriving and successful Sandura Com­
pany, maker of hard-surface floor coverings, or what most of us know as linoleum.
Twice during his busy career as president of the Sandura Company, John Clement has
been asked to serve in Washington. Once was in 1934 when he was appointed one of three
members on the Industrial Appeals Board of the N RA. That assignment ended in 1936
when the N R A was declared unconstitutional, but in 1944 he was appointed by Chester
Bowles as head of the Industrial Manufacturing and Materials Division of the OPA. From
this huge job he did not return to his desk in Philadelphia until April, 1946.
The Clements have lived in Jenkintown for 33 years, raising three^achildren, and have
always maintained an active interest in Swarthmore. Mrs. Clement was appointedr to the
Board of Managers in 1928 and is now Secretary of the Board. Two of their children
graduated from Swarthmore, Ada in 1933 and J. Stokes Jr. in 1934. Continuing the family
(and the Swarthmore) tradition, Ada married James Russell Jones, ’32, while Stokes
married Dorothy Bowman Glenn, ’35. Mr. Clement, who can now boast nine grand­
children, is very proud of the fact that John Stokes Clement III is already entered at
Swarthmore for-the Class of 1961.
Golf is Jack Clement’s major relaxation. It may be pertinent therefore, that he has been
president of the Old York Road Country Club for the last twenty years. Neither is he
averse to doing a little trout or bass fishing with Barclay White, ’06, in the streams near
Sky top.
So it is with a vast amount of knowledge, as a birthright Quaker, as an astute businessman
and as a devoted Swarthmorean, that John Clement comes to Swarthmore in one of the
most important jobs that an alumnus could possibly fill. Swarthmore is grateful that he
has accepted it.

In 1936 he became professor emeritus.
Professor Alleman will be affectionately remembered by
a host of students in chemistry, many of whom as a result
of the stimulus at Swarthmore, have made distinguished
records for themselves in the period since graduation.
