NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Peiping, China, Sept. 27. Professor James M. Woods of Harvard, Member of the Corporation of the Harvard-Yenching Institute, was present at the formal ceremonies attending the opening of Yenching University here today. There were begun the dedication exercises which were postponed two years ago because of the unsettled conditions in the country.

Professor William Hung, of Yenching University, is a visiting lecturer at Harvard this year, Speaking on Chinese History.

Yenching University, which is chartered under the laws of New York, is situated several miles outside the walls of this city, in what was formerly the garden of a Manchu prince.

In addition to Professor Woods, several other educators, representing Princeton, Columbia, Wellesley, Ohio State, and Chicago were represented at the opening exercises.
