Highest Award of the College

Announcement was made from the President's office recently of the award of the Morrill Allen Gallagher Memorial Scholarships to Albert Thomas Fusonie '28 of Roxbury, Mass., and LeRoy Crosby Milliken '28 of Melrose, Mass. These scholarships, awarded annually to two undergraduates selected on the basis of the Rhodes scholarship, are the highest and most prized of such awards given by the College. The scholarships are for $600 each.

The Morrill Allen Gallagher scholarships are based on a gift made by Mrs. Kate M. Morse of Boston. The qualifications on which the awards are based are qualities of manhood, force of character, and leadership; literary and scholastic ability and attainments; and physical vigor as shown by participation in outdoor sports or in other ways. "Excellence in all three qualities is desired," according to the terms of the award, "but in the absence of this combination preference is given to the man who shows distinction either of character and personality, or of intellect, over one who shows a lower degree of excellence in both. Preference is given to students from Boston and the vicinity.

Fusonie has been a member of the football team for three years and will play on the baseball team for his third season this spring. He is a member of Sphinx, the Green Key, and the Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity. Milliken won his class numerals on the 1928 hockey team and has since been a member of the varsity hockey squad. He is manager of baseball and a member of Casque and Gauntlet, Green Key, and The Psi Upsilon fraternity.
