Adlai Denies Rumor

A prominent Princeton alumnus declared himself out of his second Presidential race in a week last night.

Adlai E. Stevenson, Princeton '22, of Libertyville, Illinois said he had not been asked to succeed Princeton president Harold W. Doods, when he retires in June. He had been rumored as a possibility.

"I'd be most honored if they asked me," said Stevenson, "but they haven't." Stevenson, 56, said he believed he was "at least ten years older" than the man Princeton would want for the position.
