TWO LARGE BEQUESTS

$200,000 from J. C. Carter '50.--Bequest from W. F. Miller.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The will of the late James Coolidge Carter '50, of New York, which will be offered for probate either today or Monday, was made public last night. In addition to bequests to Mr. Carter's wife and family, the will provides for a gift to the University of $200,000. By the terms of the will one-half of this sum is to be devoted to the general purposes of the University. The other half, although without absolute restrictions, is left for the establishment and maintenance in the Law School of a professorship for the teaching of the distinction between the provinces of written and unwritten law.

By the will of William F. Miller, of New York, filed yesterday in Pittsfield, his entire estate, estimated at more than $1,000,000, will revert to the University after the death of his wife, to whom the estate is now left in trust.
