The Law School has made its annual announcement of the award of prizes and scholarships for the year. Fifty-five men, representing 26 states and two foreign countries and no less than 35 colleges and universities, are included in the list of men thus honored for distinguished work at the School.
The Fay Diploma, awarded each year to the member of the graduating class who in the judgment of the Faculty has given evidence of the greatest promise by his scholarship, conduct and character, goes to Richard Cary Curtis '16, of Boston. Mr. Curtis, who led the class which graduated from the School last spring, is now practicing law with the Boston firm of Choate, Hall, and Stewart.
Four men now studying at the School have been chosen for the Sears Prizes of $400 each, which are awarded for the most brilliant work done in the School, irrespective of the financial means of the candidates. They are Ethan Davidson Alyea 3L., of Clifton, N. J., a Princeton graduate; Justis Vollmer Wolf 3l., of New Orleans, a graduate of Tulane University; Arthur Bergen Dunne 2L., of San Francisco, a graduate of the University of California; and Samuel Henry Maslon 2L., of Minneapolis, a graduate of the University of Minnesota.
