Sidney Goldfarb '64, of Peabody, Mass., has been awarded this year's Dana Reed Prize for distinguished writing in a Harvard undergraduate publication, it was announced yesterday.
Goldfarb, on leave of absence this term, was given the prize for his article, about Mexican laborers in California, "Beginning American," which appeared last December in the Advocate.
Four editors of the CRIMSON received honorable mention for two articles and an editorial in the CRIMSON on May 28, 1963, dealing with the termination of the appointment of Richard Alpert and the relief of Timothy F. Leary from further teaching duty. They are: Josiah L. Auspitz '63, of Philadelphia, Pa.; Joseph M. Russin, of Laramie, Wyo. and Dunster House; Michael W. Schwartz '63, of Great Neck, N.Y.; and Andrew T. Well '63, of Wyncote, Pa. and Winthrop House.
The Dana Reed Prize was established in memory of Dana Reed '43, who was reported missing after a bombing raid over the Adriatic Sea. He had been executive editor of the CRIMSON.
Judges for this year's contest were: Geoffrey Hellman, writer for the New Yorker magazine; Kenneth D. McCormick, editor-in-chief of Doubleday and Co.; and Daniel D. Mich of Look.
