MoreThis collection is comprised of one sepia-tone photograph of John Harrelson speaking on the steps of the Bell Tower, ca. 1940. Several unidentified men are also present, some in military uniform. John Harrelson was chancellor of North Carolina State College (now University) from 1931 to 1953. The Memorial Bell Tower, to honor NC State students and alumni killed in World War I, was begun in 1921, but it wasn't completed until several years later and was dedicated finally in 1949.
