Lowell - Pierson Affiliation Reinforced at Eli Banquet

The friendly affiliation between Lowell House and its Yale "sister," Pierson College, was strengthened at a banquet in New Haven Wednesday evening, that originated as a birthday celebration for the college and developed into a demonstration of respect for its departing master, Alan Valentine, just appointed President of Rochester University. A social union was initiated between those two units last year when Pierson College played the gracious host to Julian L. Coolidge '95, Master of Lowell House.

Professor Coolidge expressed to his Eli listeners the earnest desire that the fine spirit and traditions of Pierson College would continue to flourish on the splendid foundation that its departing master had laid. President Angell of master had laid. President Angell of Yale, the next speaker, continued the eulogy of Mr. Valentine.
