Dr. Sparks to Be Inaugurated As 8th President Tomorrow

By LOWELL B, NUSSBAUM Times Staff Writer ‘

CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Oct.

24.—Frank Hugh Sparks, successful

manufacturer who detoured into the educational field as an afterthought, will be inaugurated tomorrow as. the eighth president of 109-year-old

Wabash College.

Alumni and friends of the businessman-educator began arriving on the wooded campus today for a reception tonight in the Masonic Temple.

Quite a few prominent educators will be on hand tomorrow for the inaugural ceremony at 10 a. m. in the college chapel. The man they are honoring has had a varied career: Grant County farm boy, auto mechanic's helper; auto accessories manufacturer—the Sparks of Noblitt-Sparks Industries; student—he got his A, B. degree from Butler only six years ago—and now college president. Businessman Type Dr, Sparks, a handsome, wellbuilt man of 50, differs quite a bit from the popular :conception of a college president. He’s the smartly dressed businessman type. About five feet, 10 or 11 inches tall, he weighs around 150. His eyes are blue; he wears rimless Spectacles, and his light brown hair has scarcely a trace of gray. He's been at the college a month and a half now, and admits he hasn’t found the need for any

way things have been going there seems in general to meet his own ideas pretty well.

he withdrew from all active part in management of the firm-and went to California, enrolling as a graduate student to obtain his master’s degree, and becoming a lecturer in economics at the Usiversity of Southern California, Mrs. Sparks died in 1937. He remarried this

year. Educators to Speak

“Among the educators scheduled to peak at the “inauguration tomorrow are George V. Kendall, dean of ihe faculty; President Alfred Upham of Miami University; President Herman B. Wells of Indiana University; President Rufus B. Kleinsmid of U. 8. C.; Lee McCanliss, New York, president of the board of trustees; Dr. Sparks, and President Albert G. Parker of Hanover College. J. Daniels, Indianapolis attorney, will be toastmaster at a

tice.” In discussing its pledge to democratic principles, the Resolutions Committee said: “We believe that our lives and liberties depend upon the preservation of both the form and the spirit of government as established under the Constitution, We stand united against all philosophies of government alien to and opposed to the spirit of democracy which established this republic under the Constitution. “We recognize the serious threat to our sacred institutions in the rise of that spirit which begets totalitarianism. We urge all teachers to be alert in recognizing influences that create atmosphere in which totalitarianism lives and thrives, “To meet this threat, we plead for a new emphasis with students upon devotion to common welfare, upon spirit. of tolerance, harmony and national unity, all of which is so necessary to avert the type of catastrophe which so recently befell the democracies.”

GASOLINE CURFEW IN EAST IS LIFTED

WASHINGTON, Oct, 24 (U. P.).— The 100,000 gasoline filling stations along the Atlantic Seaboard were free today to abandon the 7 p. m.-7 a. m. “blackout” invoked to conserve fuel supplies for national defense. : Defense Oil Co-ordinator Harold L. Ickes announced yesterday that all restrictions on consumption imposed because of the “shortage” of supplies in the Eastern region could be lifted in view of the return by Britain of 40 oil tankers which had been borrowed under the Lend-Lease

rogram. ‘ “Because it is no longer neces-

He says he has no thought .of ex- t

panding the student body. There are 374 now—all males—and the entrance requirements are fairly stringent. He wants to keep the college ‘a small liberal arts: school able to give attention to the development of the individual student. Right now the ratio is only 11 students to the instructor, and in some of the advanced classes the ratio drops as low as two to one. Wants Strong Faculty Dr. Sparks says he isn’t particularly interested in new buildings. He’s more interested in the faculty and “wouldn’t turn down any funds to make ‘it even stronger than it is already.” Most of the buildings on ‘the campus are pretty old, but theyre quite serviceable and tradition hallowed. Still in use is the college’s Sliginal frame building, finished in The : president’s . own office is in the pre-Civil ‘War Center Hall. ‘He has only one small room—no. reception room. In one corner of the room rests the old Wabash Monon bell which disappeared several weeks ago and ‘mysteriously reappeared one ‘day ‘on the Butler campus. : Views Post as Haven : The new president Tboks on Wabash College's - presidency ‘as ‘an ideal haven for any businessman weary of ever increasing govern« mental restrictions and regimentaion. Privately endowed and operated,

{the college is about as far from

governmental interference as you can get, he says. It's described as the only school west of the Alleghenies without either church or state affiliations. Dr. Sparks began his business career in In lis. Following his graduation from Culver High School, he got a /job with the old Carl G. Fisher plant where he met and became a helper to Quentin G. Noblitt, then an auto mechanic.

Set Up Motor School

The two later went to the Haywood Tire & Equipment Co. then in 1916 set up the Indianapolis Motor School. They closed the school when World War I robbed them of most of their students. In 1919 they : organized the Inlis Pump & Tube Co. which 7 became Noblitt-Sparks In-

In the afternoon, Wabash will renew its football rivalry with Hanover College. The two teams have been playing since 1886. Thé following Saturday's game will present complications for the new president. It’s to be with Butler, from which President Sparks received his A, B. degree. But he’s got the matter solved. . “Butier plays nine football games this year—I think it’s nine—and I am rooting. for them to win eight of those games. Figure that out.”
