Subjects for Garrison Prize

The subjects announced for the Lloyd McKim Garrison Prize this year are: Serge Witte; The Stadium; Democracy; The Charles River.

This prize, consisting of $100 and a silver medal, is offered for the best poem on a subject or subjects annually chosen by a committee of the Department of English. Competing poems should not exceed fifty lines, should bear an assumed name, and should be accompanied by a sealed letter containing the true name of the writer and superscribed with the assumed name. The prize is open only to undergraduates of Harvard College. All manuscripts should be left at University 5, at the office of the Secretary of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences by April 15, 1906.

The fund for this prize was given by the class of 1888 in memory of Lloyd McKim Garrison of that class, who in his undergraduate days was prominent as an editor and poet. The prize was won last year--the first time it was offered--by C. T. Ryder '06 with a sonnet sequence of three sonnets on the Immigrant.
