Kerr Declines Princeton Post

Clark Kerr, Chancellor of the University of California at Berkeley, has declared that he is not interested in leaving his California post to succeed Harold W. Dodds as President of Princeton University.

Recent reports have indicated that Kerr, Dean McGeorge Bundy, and Charles W. Cole, President of Amherst College, are the strongest possibilities as successor to Dodds, when he retires next June.

Kerr said that "obligations to continue his work at the University" prevented him from considering any other position. He declined an invitation to meet with the Princeton board of trustees later this year.
