DEAN HUDNUT CHARGED WITH OUSTING HUBBARD

Pressure Brought About Resignation Of Professor of Regional Planning, Langhorne Claims

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Charges were made yesterday by Herbert D. Langhorne of Weston that the recent resignation of Henry V. Hubbard '00, Charles Dyer Norton Professor of Regional Planning, took place under pressure by Joseph F. Hudnut '09, professor of Architecture and Dean of the Faculty of Design.

Langhorne, who graduated from the Harvard School of Landscape Architecture in 1926, stated that Professor Hubbard "obviously cannot work under a man who is determined, as is Dean Hudnut to wipe out both the School of Regional Planning and the School of Landscape Architecture."

Terming the School of Regional Planning "a tolerated poor relation in the house of modern architecture." Langhorne insisted that "there are also other ideas in the world," but that Dean Hudnut wanted to subordinate them to pure architecture.
