Nominated were Dr. Paul M. Hebert; Gen. Campbell B. Hodges; Dr. Roy L. Thompson, president of the Federal Land Bank in New Orleans; Dr. Charles E. Friley, president of Iowa State College; Maj. Fred C. Frey; and Dr. Nicholas Bauer, superintendent of New Orleans Public Schools. At long last, at 11:10 a. m., Monday, March 10, the most significant statement of the entire school year was made. James E. Smitherman, chairman of the board, announced that Campbell Blackshear Hodges, Major General, U. S. A., had been named president of the University.
