Five awards are to be made, each of $350.
The Parker Fellowships are endowed by the bequest made in 1873 of John Parker Jr. of Boston. There are four fellowships, each with an income of $1,000; they are open to students in any department of Harvard University and recipients must devote themselves to some approved course of study.
