The New England Federation of Harvard Clubs announces a scholarship of $200 to be awarded to a candidate for admission to Harvard College from the New England States, who is to be selected on the basis of his record in the college entrance examinations and his recommendations from the principal or head master of his school.
Applications for this scholarship, according to the announcement made at the University, must be on blank forms to be obtained from the Committee on Admission to University Hall, Cambridge, before June 15, 1920.
The Committee on Scholarships of the New England Federation of Harvard Clubs is composed of the following men: Roger Wolcott '99, chairman, Boston; Edward A. Harriman '88, New Haven; Howard Corning '90, Bangor, Me.; Wellington Wells '90, Boston; Percy M. Williams Dn. '91-93, Rutland, Vt.; Rudolph Weld '05, Dedham; William G. Roelker '09, Providence.
The requirements for the scholarship are stated as follows:
"The candidate must be in reasonable need of scholarship aid, and must have attained honorable rank in school. Candidates must be recommended by the principals or head masters of their respective schools, and the numbers so recommended shall be limited to two from any one school. The principal or head master shall certify to the good moral character and honorable rank in school of the candidate. A parent or guardian shall certify that the candidate is in reasonable need of scholarship aid. The candidate will be selected by the Scholarship Committee from among the six candidates who receive the highest marks in their college entrance examinations, either under the new or old plans of admission. Preference may be given to applicants from schools which have not in recent years sent boys to Harvard College, and from districts in which few scholarships are offered.
"This scholarship is awarded only for the Freshman year, but the College is able to give assistance through scholarships and in other ways to men who, in their college work, show themselves worthy of further aid."
