Prof. Bradley is a native of Troy, South Carolina, and entered Carolina it 1903. He received his Bachelors degree in 1907 and his Master's degreee in 1909. Even during his undergraduate days he assisted in the language department and thus early began a career as a pro fessor of modern languages. Proi. Bradley's college days were very profi table and successful in several fields of activity. He excelled not only in class room work, but in literary society work and in college journalism. The following list of some of his st-. dent honors will serve to give an idea of his many activities on this campus: Winner Clariosophic declaimers con test, '04; member board of editors, Ca rolinian, '04; assistant editor, Garnet and Black, '05; won Hampton scholar ship '05; secretary of Y.M.C.A.

Immediately after receiving his de gree from Carolina, Prof. Bradley was made a regular instructor and served in this capacity for three years. His collegiate work was continued at the University of Marburg, Germany, for three semesters. Later he spent one summer quarter at the University of Chicago. In 1911 he was made an adjunct professor and continued in this capacity until the end of the spring semester in 1917. Then Professor Bradley volunteered h:s services-to the American govern ment at once. His eminent knowledge of the Germans, their language, char acteristics, and customs immediately forced him to the front in his branch of the service. The service record of Professor Bradley is an especially brilliant one and it is unfortunate that space pro hibits more than a mere outline of it here. He wvent to Fort Oglethrope to the First Officers Training Camp and at the completion of the course was made a First Leiutcnant and went across with the 30th division in this rank. He left the 30th in Flanders and wvent to the Longres Intelligence School, after which lie wvas sent to the headquarters of the First Army. In be ing transferred to the Second Army he was made a captain. When the Arnmistic was signed, Pro fessor Bradley was detailed to go to Spa along with the officers directing the writing of the Arnmistic. For this service he was promoted to the rank of major and representedl the United States on the Commission held there. Returning in 1919 with the rank of Major lhe was made associate profes sor, and 1920 professor in charge of the~ new department of Teutonic languages. Professor Bradley has already de veloped his department into one of the strongest, and most perfectly organized of any at the University. In spite of the full schedule of hours required of him in this work, lie has until the last few years assisted the French dlepart ment by teach'~ng at least one French section. Being a regular contributor to many magazines and newspapers in his field, Prof. Bradley has become well knowvn throughout thc entire country. He is actively interested ini the local civic clubs andl institutions.
