Allen St. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA Pailee Library Receives Gift Of 200 Volumes A collection of 200 volumes from the estate of Samuel Put nam, noted writer and historian, has been given to the Eattee library by Mrs. Putnam and her son, Hilary. The greater part of the gift is devoted to Brazilian litera ture, Mr. Putnam’s special in terest, and contains some of the materials used for his history of Brazilian writing, “Marvelous Journey.” There are also Span ish, Italian, and French litera tures. Mr. Putnam was equally fam ous as a translator and an or iginal writer. His most famous works were “Francois Rabelair, Man of the Renaissance,” “Mar guerite of Navarre,” and “Paris Was Our Mistress.” His recent translation of Don Quixote has received praise from critics for the quality of the translation and the literary style. Most of Mr. Putnam’s library was giyen to the University of Pennsylvania and it was through the university that the Pattee Library was able to acquire this portion. Commenting on the gift, Dr. Robert J. Clements, head of the department of Romance lan guages, said, “Samuel. Putnam once praised a Renaissance fig ure by remarking that ‘his erudi tion did not smell of the study.’ Putnam was such a scholar himself. His colorful and personal writings in history and biography avoided pedantry, but were nevertheless the product of pa tient documentation and research. His own library was thus a scholar’s library, rich in defini tive editions and reference works.” Kearney Named Rockview Supt. Walter A. Kearney, associate professor of education at the Col lege, has been named superin tendent of the Rockview farm prison, according to word re ceived from Edwin S.
