Haas was awarded the Susan Anthony Potter Prize--$75--for his essay "The Monk and Don Juan" in the field of Spanish Literature of the Golden Age.
Helson, a Math major, received the Wister Prize--$65--as the Senior with the highest record in the fields of Music of Mathematics, while Epstein earned the Elizabeth Wilder Prize--worth $40--for turning in the best mid-year examination paper in Elementary German.
