Thirteen members of the University have been nominated by President Lowell for Rhodes Scholarships at Oxford. Whether they will actually win the Scholarships will depend upon the action of the state committees of selection which have the final authority. In each of thirty-two states on December 3 a state committee of selection will pick one Rhodes Scholar for 1922-23 from among the candidates nominated by the heads of various colleges and universities.
Of the men nominated, five will be candidates in Massachusetts, two in Maryland, and one each in Indiana, Illinois, California, New York, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.
