LITERARY PRIZES

Two literary prizes have been offered to the undergraduates for the year 1908-09 by alumni of the College. One of these is to be a reward of fifty dollars for the best poem on Dartmouth, submitted by a college man. This prize is to become an annual affair through the generosity of Mr. Arthur L. Livermore '88, and will be known as the Richard Hovey prize. The other prize, the amount of which has not yet been announced, is given by an unknown alumnus for the best story written about Dartmouth during the year. President Tucker and Professors Emery and Richardson have been appointed as a board of judges and if in the opinion of this board any manuscript appears to lack the quality necessary the prize may be withheld for the year.
