 (the following information is as it appears in the program from Drake University for the opening of Olin Hall)
 [http://www.olin.edu/about_olin/olin_foundation.aspx The Olin Foundation] was established in 1938 by the late chemical manufacturer, Franklin W. Olin. Under the leadership of Dr. Charles L. Horn, president of the Foundation since 1951 and a native of Ida Grove, Iowa, the Olin Foundation has achieved preeminent reputation in the field of support for higher education. In addition to Dr. Horn, trustees of the Olin Foundation are Carlton T. Helming and William B. Horn from Minneapolis, Lawrence W. Milas and Dr. James O. Wynn from New York City, and Ralph Clark from Chicago.
