AMES The man who has awarded one-third all of the degrees issued in Iowa State University history will officiate at his last commencement exercise as' president of the university on Saturday, May 29. Dr. James H. Hilton, who retire as president July 1, has awarded 19,902 degrees during his 12-year administration.

On May 29," about 1,200 will be added to that total. Iowa State's first graduating class in 1872 consisted of 26 men and 2 women From that time until July 1 1953, when Dr. Hilton became president, the university awarded 33,212 bachelor of science degrees and 1,455 doctor of phil osophy degrees. In the Hilton era, there have been 15,500 B. 2,671 M.

and 1,731 Ph.D. awards. Dr Hilton has awarded more Ph.D degrees than all other Iowa State presidents since the firs Ph.D. was granted in 1916. Commencements at Iowa State have a distinctive Hilton flavor-during the last 12 years.

Not given to lengthy ora- ions, Dr. Hilton.has conducted graduation exercises with a ninimuni of speech making. commencement programs year, with ever-increasing numbers of awards to be made, encourage such brevity. Commencement exercises over the" years tend to look very much alike, but there have been memorable occasions during presidency. One of these was on Nov.

23, 1960, when President Hilton awarded a Ph.D. degree in economics to his son, James G. Hilton. Three years later to the day, Nov. 23, 1963, the most sombei commencement in Iowa State's history occurred.

It was the morning after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the normally gay occasion was laden with gloom. Because so many parents were already en route to Ames for the graduation program, Dr. Hilton decided to carry it out in an abbreviated ceremony. Before the practice of inviting commencement speakers was discontinued, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles addressed the June 1956, graduating class.

The June 1958, commence ment was notable as a highlight of ISU's Centennial observance. Among changes effected during the Hilton years have been the moving of all com mencement programs into the Armory, ending the custom scheduling them in the footbal stadium where defiance of the fates all too often was rewardec with some of Iowa's worsl weather; separating Alumn: Days from the commencemenl weekend to give each occasion its own individuality and prom inence; and conducting the major commencement In May ather than June, a change brought about when the university adopted a new for the academic year.
