BOSTON, Mass., August 4.—Herman Hormel, prominent republican politi- clan and surveyor of the port of Bos- ton, revealed a bit of interesting and hitherto unpublished history tonight when he told the real story of the origin of the extraordinary friendship of Frank W. Stearns, a quiet, unas- suming Boston merchant, which has greatly assisted President Calvin Coolidge on his remarkable road to political success. . Some people already are speaking of Mr. Stearns as the “Col. House of the Coolldge administration.” The wealthy Boston man hardly knew President Coolidge until a few years ago. It came about In this way, ac- cording to the story told by Mr. Hor- mel to a correspondent of The Sun- day Star at the republican city com- mittee headquarters: . At a gathering of Amherst College men, Henry F. Field, counsel for the Amherst Corporation and a promi- ent alumnus. who recently has been appointed judge of probate at North- ampton, protested that his fellow alumni ought to show more college spirit and hang together better.
