CAMBRIDGE. Mass., June 24.
Commencement day - observances at
Harvard university were brought to a
close today with exorcises In Sever
Quadrangle, In the Harvard yard, at
which brief addresses were delivered
by Genoral Pershing and Franklin K.
Lane, former secretary of the Interior,
both of whom wore awarded the de
groo of doctor of laws earlier 'In the
day, and by Governor Coolidge.
The governor, after saying that
I uarvara una pcriormca a groat mis
sion, said that the mission Of the com
monwealth of Massachusetts had been
"to lead the world into a larger lib
erty." The process adoptod in carry
ing out that mission "began In the
j cabin of the Mayflower, whore there
was a renunciation, on the part of
j those about to found the eommon
j wealth, of their personal froedom, in
order that they and the state which
I they founedd might enjoy a larger
I liberty, and that lesson there given
was carried into the revolution.
"Tho great issue of that conquest
I was not tho sotting up of an inde-'
pendent government. It was the es-;
tabllshment of a constitution that pro-i
vided for liberty under tho law, and it
provided for It by a remission on fhe
part of individuals of some of their
smaller Ideas and smaller freedom."
I Genoral Pushing said that ""we have
; como to lo J to Harvard as a unlver
J ally and to Harvard men for the solu
j tion of most of our problems."
At a meeting of the alumni assoeia
) tion. Eliot Wadsworth, joint chairman
I of the endowment fund commltten.
I announced that 17, 60S subscriptions
, had been received, amounting to $lL-i
i 157,7 6 1. Ho said that after the prosi-1
dentlal election the campaign would
be resumed In an effort to reach tho

j XBW YORK, June 24. A supreme
1 court jury decided today that William
McCuo was not ' tho toughest kid in
Hull's Kitchen, and awarded him
$3,600 damages against tho Russell
Sago foundation and publlshors of a
book entitled "Boyhood and Lawless-'
ness," In which his picture appeared,
over thi3 caption. !
In asking $30,000 damages, the boy's
complaint set forth that in 1914 a
photographer appeared in the Hell's
Kitchen district, where ho llvod. and
inrtb hlo nlntnrt .-n Ksv A . V,... U
wanted " boy scout pictures." McCuo,
who Is now of age, said ho wa3 an al
tar boy In St. Ambrose's church at the
time, and had never been arrested or
charged with delinquency in any form.
In denying a motion to set aside the
verdict, Justice Ford said:
'There Is not a scintilla of evidence
that he was tough at all. It Is a wick
ed libel.
"That Is tho great troublo with these
movements. They think that where
is poverty thero must be criminality.
As a matter of fact. In those humbie

this book will be found more Chris

more of the sterling qualities of hu
