 William Howard Taft - LoveToKnow 1911
His father, Alphonso Taft (1810-1891), born in Townshend, Vermont, graduated at Yale College in 1833, became a tutor there, studied law at the Yale Law School, was admitted to the Connecticut bar in 1838, removed to Cincinnati in 1839, and became one of the most influential citizens of Ohio.
William Howard Taft attended the public schools of Cincinnati, graduated at the Woodward High School of that city in 1874, and in the autumn entered Yale College, where he took high rank as a student and was prominent in athletics and in the social life of the institution.
A movement to elect Mr Taft president of Yale University gained some strength in 1898-99, but was promptly checked by him, on the ground that the head of a great university should be primarily an educationalist.

We assume that junctural disambiguation of structural ambiguity is universal in phrase level phonology, though phonetically implemented in various ways depending on a languageÕs prosodic and syntactic type (e.g.: left versus right branching).
To compare the prosodic features which disambiguate left and right branching readings of compound and phrasal constructions in Japanese, Vietnamese, and English as representative cases of three prosodic linguistic types (a pitch accent language with moraic timing; a tone language with syllabic timing; a stress-accent language with foot timing)
