TO CLOSE APPLICATIONS FOR AWARD NEXT MONTH

LADY HENRY'S WILL ESTABLISHED FUND FOR SCHOLARSHIPS

Applications for the Henry Fellowships for study at Oxford or Cambridge will close on January 1, 1932. The Fellowships, the most liberal aids to study abroad, are awarded annually to candidates who have both shown distinction in some branch of learning and who have also presented a definite plan of study or research abroad. This choice of work may be regarded as unrestricted if the British universities have the facilities for the work in question. The scheme of study must, however, be approved by the Committee of Management and by the British university.

"Bonds of Friendship"

The late Lady Julia Henry's will established the Charles and Julia Henry Fund "in the earnest hope and desire of cementing the bonds of friendship between the British Empire and the United States," the income from the fund to be used for Fellowships for British students in American universities and for American students in British universities. This is only the second year of the award; D. D. Lloyd '31, and William Foshay '31, were the Harvard students chosen last year.

One of the conditions is that Fellows must be unmarried American citizens, who are either studying at or who have graduated from a recognized university. The Fellowships are tenable for one year, open to both men and women, and carry a stipend of 500 pounds.

Harvard's representatives on the Committee of Management are President Lowell, Dean A. C. Hanford, and F. W. Hunnewell '02.
