Twenty-three men from 14 far-flung states who entered College last year on National Scholarships and attained honors standing, have had their grants renewed for the three upper-class years, it was announced yesterday.
Although all stipends are adjusted to individual needs, the maximum which can be received in upper-class years is $200 greater than that which can be granted Freshmen, owing to the proportionally higher cost of living in the Houses. Twenty-four men in the Junior and Senior classes are now wholly or partially supported by the National Scholarship fund.
The question of whether high marks do not entail a sacrifice of extracurricular activities is left unsolved by the records of the 23 hand-picked "Conant men" who made honors last year. Nine of them took no part in any organized activity outside the classroom, but others made a good record. Seven were drawn into musical activities, and five became debaters. The HSU drew three to PBH's two.
Not Athletes
The men were definitely non-athletic, for although all presumably passed the three-hour-a-week requirement, only four of the 23 made a Freshman squad, two in football, one in track and one in crew.
The Sophomores who have had their scholarships renewed are Wiley F. Barker, Santa Fe, N. Mex.; John A. Bradshaw, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Roger E. Clapp, Indianapolis, Ind.; Irving M. Clark, Jr., Bellevue, Wash.; Julian C. Eisenstein, Warrenton, Mo.; Thomas L. Eliot, Winnetka, Ill.; Charles E. Feazel, Jr., West Monroe, La.; Robert D. Forsberg, Hudson, Ohio; Max D. Gaebler, Watertown, Wis.; John W. Goddard, Indianapolis, Ind.
Morris E. Hurley, Jr., Berkeley, Calif.; Frank B. Jourdan, Albuquerque, N. Mex.; James D. Justice, Logansport, Ind.; Malcolm G. Leybourne, Tippecanoe City, Ohio; Robert B. Loftfield, Euclid, Ohio; Duane B. Lueders, Henning, Minn.; James W. Morrison, Jr., Portland, Ore.; Mortimer S. Rayman, Chicago, Ill.; George F. Snell, Jr., Takoma Park, Md.; George R. Strange, Chicago, Ill.; Joseph H. Summers, Madisonville, Ky.; and James W.L. Moukman, St. Paul, Minn.
