1925 Scholarship

The first recipient of the Class of 1925 Scholarship Award is Howard Kingsbury Clery '53 of Arlington, Mass.

Clery contracted polio during his high school career at Arlington High School and now wears a full-length brace and uses canes. This has not prevented him from taking an active part in college activities nor from leadership in the affairs of his class.

He was a member of Green Key, has been both vice-president and president of the Class of 1953, is now a member of Palaeopitus and vice-president of the Undergraduate Council, and during his junior year was chairman of the Displaced Persons Committee. His college scholastic average is above 3.0.

The Class of 1925 Scholarship Fund was established last December at $5,000 and in the past eight months has grown to $lO,OOO. The next objective of the Fund is an endowment of $25,000. Beginning next fall the award will go to an outstanding freshman candidate. Both the Class and the College wished to make an award for 1952-1953 and Howard Clery was picked for the $400 award.
