As a result of the second series of trials held in Sanders Theatre yesterday afternoon ten men have been selected to compete in the final competition for the Lee Wade and Boylston speaking prizes, it was announced last night by Assistant Professor F. C. Packard '20.

On the evening of April 4 these men will speak in competition for four prizes in Sanders Theatre. The affair is open to the public. A double quartet from the Glee Club will perform pending the decision of the judges. The judges for the final trials will be announced at a later date.

The ten men chosen are as follows: T. H. Eliot '28, W. A. Fowle '30, Theodore Hall Jr. '29, A. D. Howlett '30, Abbot Peterson Jr. '30, F. E. Shea '29, T. M. Stensland '28, O. E. Vaccaro '29, R. C. Weaver '29, and E. D. Wheeler '28.

The Lee Wade prize of $50 was founded in 1915 by Dr. Francis Henry Wade in memory of his son Lee Wade II '14, who was keenly interested in the Boylston prizes when in college. The three Boylston prizes, one of $50 and two of $30, are among the oldest prizes in the University. They were founded in 1817 by Ward Nicholas Boylston '35 in honor of his uncle, Nicholas Boylston.
