Orrin Leslie Elliot was among the first ten appointed to serve the University, his position being Secretary as well as Regis- trar. From Cornell like Dr. .lordan he showed his enthusiasm as one of the Hrst three professors to arrive the summer before Stanford opened. Mrs. Stanford heard of David Cardner's fine work in his parish of Palo Alto, and he became the first Chap- lain of the University after the departure of Dr. Newton, who had used the formal title of Pastor. Rev. Gardner and Mrs. Stanford agreed on the simpler title, and he served Stanford's non-sectarian Chapel with faith and devotion for many years. Timothy Hopkins was the benefactor ofStanford in many Ways, including the Hopkins Marine Laboratory, the Railway Li- brary, and also in his land purchase that enabled Palo Alto to grow. John MacDoWell was an early administrator, prominent in athletic management. Mrs. Evelyn Allan was the Dean of Women from 1908 through the war period. George A. Clark hecame Academic Secretary with the beginning of the Uni- versity. Like Mr. Elliot, who wrote Stanford Universityg the First Twenty-Five Years, Mr. Clark is also author of a book called Leland Stanford: Railroad Builder, War Governor, Founder of Stanford University. These administrators were ahle and enthusiastic in huilding Mr. and Mrs. Stanfordls ideal. T... . , . .. .f.,. 18 41--uw 'f my-SE' 3'EShZ.3Q1I'L7 1 1 1 Top-GEORGE x. CLARK, Academic Secretary.

' The first twenty-four Trustees were appointed by Senator and Mrs. Stanford for life terms which were later limited to ten-year terms with the Board composed of only fif- teen members. In 1903 Mrs. Stanford gave up her rights and privileges as a Founder, and the Board of Trustees began to function actively in the management of the Uni- versity, electing her to the honorary position of President of the Board. Through the years the Trustees have worked for Stanford in the progressive spirit of the Founders. They sponsored the Medical School, aided the Food Research Institute in cooperation with the Carnegie Corporation, and built the final Library Building. They also aided the Memorial Fund for the auditorium, and provided many of the dormitories, Toyon, Lagunita, Roble, and Union. THE PRESENT TRUSTEES Around the table, left to right: IRA S.

Dr. Stillman, son of the Stanford's family physician and professor of organic and industrial chemistry, was one of the first twenty- one faculty members appointed. Dr. Campbell was also of this group, a botanist and friend of David Starr Jordan like Dr. Marx, a civil engineer from Cornell. With Dr. Durand, the chairman of the Committee of Student Affairs in Stanford's early years and a professor of mechanical engineering, Dr. Marx supervised recon- struction after the earthquake. Dr. Martin was a professor of Psychology, doing research in what was then a new science as Dr. Cubberley, a Stanford uprofn since 1898, developed modern theories of education. The versatile Dr. Murray, faculty member since the second year of the University's existence, combined teaching Greek with the chairmanship of the first -Athletic Com- mittee. Dr. Adams of the Department of History had an active interest in the contemporary history and was one of Mr. Hoover's most valuable assistants in the organization of his collection of war documents now in the War Library. Dr. Fairclough joined the Classics Department in Stanfordis second year. Dr. Ryan's elec- trical engineering is famous, and his laboratory is one of the best on the Coast.
