NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Applications for permission to compete for the Charles Eliot Norton fellowship in Greek studies, for the year 1905-1906, must be made to Professor M. H. Morgan, chairman of the Department of Classics, before Thursday. The theses of candidates who are approved must be presented to the chairman not later than March 1.

Competition for this fellowship, which yields as annual income of $600, is open to members of the Senior class and Graduate School, both of the University and of Radcliffe College. The incumbent must agree to pursue his studies for the year of his incumbency, in the American School of Classical Studies at Athens.

A committee composed of Professors C. E. Norton, J. H. Wright and H. W. Smyth, will award the fellowship on the basis of a thesis on a subject approved by the committee, and such other evidence of scholarship as may be available. In making the award no account will be taken of the financial means of the competitor.

The subjects suggested this year for the theses, are as follows: "Greek Conceptions of a Future Life as Illustrated by Works of Art," "The Dramatic Art of Euripides," "The Part taken by Women in Greek Cults," "The International Aspects of Greek Commerce," "The Influence of Greek Plastic Art on Greek Tragic Poetry." With the approval of the committee, other subjects relating to the classics may be chosen.

Further information may be obtained from Professor Wright or Professor Smyth.
