This year the university will offer three winter institutes. In addition to the Winter Institute cf
Literature which met with great
popularity last year, there will be
a Pan American Winter Institute
ind a History Institute.
These three institutes will come
during the winter term which begins January second and continues
through March twenty-second.
Lovers of literature, history and
Latin American subjects will find
the institutes, coming as they do
during the height of the winter
season, a combined holiday of the
better sort, together with valuable
courses of instruction taught by
the most noted people of each field.
Many   requests   have   been   received   by   the   University   from
northern students who would like
to attend  the  school  during  the
winter.   The adoption of the three j
term plan will make it possible for!
these students to enroll during the
winter and take advantage o_ the!
institutes.
Last year the University presented in the Winter Institute of!
Literature such well known auth-
ors as Carl Sandburg, Percival j
Wilde, Zona Gale, Padraic Colum j
and Edward Davidson. This win-(
ter the Institute will schedule an-j
ether well known group.
The Pan American Institute will j
cover a period of ten weeks with,
the Literature and  History insti- \
tutes being five weeks each.    The
Institute of Literature opens January ninth and continues through
February tenth.    The History Institute runs  from  February  thirteenth to March seventeenth.    The\
Pan American Institute will begin
January  nineteenth   and  continue j
until March seventeenth.
The history and literature insti- j
tutes will meet six times a week, i
Five important authors will ap-j
Pear in each. Each author will lee- j

The General Subject of the Win- j
ter Institute of Literature will bej

Henry L. Doherty, utilities magnate of New York and Coral
Gables, speaking at a testimonial
banquet held in his honor at the
Biltmore Country Club, promised
to stir up wealthy friends to aid
the university.
A tremendous ovation was given
Mr. and Mrs. Doherty by nearly
600 persons who attended the banquet.
In pledging his assistance to the
University, the business leader and
philanthropist pointed out the need
of local residents doing their part.
"I believe in the University of
Miami and I hope everybody does,"
he said. "What other people think
of your community may be measured by it. I am going to stir up
others to help the University—but
it will be difficult to ask a man on
the outside to help unless the man
on the inside will also help."
Mr. Doherty is in Miami considering plans to advertise southern
Florida throughout the north. He
is owner of the Miami Biltmore
hotel and recognized as one of the
leaders in America in gas and electric arts and industries.

Dr. Victor Andres Belaunde,
eminent authority on Pan American affairs, will direct the Pan
American Winter Institute, it has
been announced.
Dr. Belaunde is now in Lima,
Peru, where he is gathering material for his winter institute and,
during the past summer, has been
lecturing at the University of Lima.
He will return to Miami the first
of the year.
The Pan American Winter Institute is ah outgrowth of the Pan
American Forum, which, because
of the interest it aroused in students and the public, has resulted in the concentration of Latin-
American subjects into the Institute. The Institute will afford an
opportunity, not only to students,
but to winter visitors to acquire
special training in the Pan American field.
With the inauguration of the
Pan American Winter Institute, the
University will offer more courses
in the field of ___tin-American relations than any other school in
the United States.
Dr. Belaunde has been head of
the Latin American department of
the University since its founding
