Miss Julia J. Henderson of Wellesley, Massachusetts, will become the first woman student at the Harvard Graduate School of Public Administration when she begins her research next term with nine other Littauer Fellowship winners.

Formerly Instructor in Political Science at Wellesley and on the staffs of the Social Security Board and the United States Employment Service, Miss Henderson is at present conducting a study for the International Labor Office on population shifts resulting from the war.

Littauer Fellowships are open to students who have a distinguished record of advanced university graduate study in the social sciences, combined usually with actual experience in the government service. The Fellows devote their time to research seminars and collateral courses.

The Fellowship winners in addition to Miss Henderson are: Gilbert R. Barnhart, Washington, D.C. H. Howard Goldin '36, Washington, D.C., Associate Economist, Federal Communications Commission; Cyril McC. Henderson, Cambridge, Massachusetts; Harold L. Seligman, Washington, D.C., Junior Economist, Board of Governors, Federal Reserve System; William J. Smith, Durham, North Carolina, and Paul N. Yivisaker, Mankato, Minnesota, staff member of the Council of Intergovernmental Relations.

Administration Fellowships, for students who wish to follow a career in the government service but who may not have had any actual experience, have been awarded to: Lawrence Cohen, Hartford, Connecticut, graduate student at Harvard; William Hamovitch, Outremont, Quebec, public administration student at Harvard; and Donald G. Hanson, Charlottesville, Virginia.
