vania State College.
After 34 years of outstanding serv-
ice as a member of the Pennsylvania
State College faculty, Dr. Fred Lewis
Pattee, leading authority on the his-
tory of American literature, last week
severed his connection with the col-
lege, having presented his resigna-
tion to the trustees. He left last Friday
to spend the winter in Florida with
his writings, and to do some lectur-
ing at Rollins college.
In appreciation of Dr. Pattee’s
faithful service and as a token of
their esteem, students of Penn State
on Sunday morning, December 9, at
the close of the chapel service, pre-
sented him with a white gold watch
and chain, suitably engraved.
Having served for 31 years as sup-
erintendent of St. Paul’s Methodist
Episcopal Sunday school of State Col-
lege, Dr. Pattee on Sunday, also re-
ceived an engrossed parchment from
the Sunday school expressing its ap-
preciation.
