Peiping, China, Sept. 27. Professor James M. Woods of Harvard, Member of the Corporation of the Harvard-Yenching Institute, was present at the formal ceremonies attending the opening of Yenching University here today. There were begun the dedication exercises which were postponed two years ago because of the unsettled conditions in the country.

Yenching University, which is chartered under the laws of New York, is situated several miles outside the walls of this city, in what was formerly the garden of a Manchu prince.
