The Harvard Club of Chicago announced on December 28 that it had established two scholarships in memory of William C. Boyden, III '57 and William S. North, III '58, who were killed in an auto collision on their way home for Christmas.
Robert F. Spindell '37, president, said that the objective for each scholarship fund had been set for $20,000. "We are going to try to make an objective appraisal of the personalities and characteristics of these boys, so that the Scholarship Committee each year will be able to approximate as closely as possible the two boys for whom the scholarships are named," he said. The scholarships will yield an $800 stipend each year.
The club will seek "a mental picture" of Boyden and North by questioning several contemporaries Spindell stated.
The two funds were begun by William C. Boyden Jr. '16, Arthur Dixon '16, Hermon D. Smith '21, past presidents of the Harvard Club, Spindell, and Adlal E. Stevenson.
