New Scholarships

THE College announced last month that there has been established a third scholarship of substantial amount under its Corporation Plan, whereby participants who help to underwrite the scholarship program may call upon the College for specific assistance in industrial research.

The new scholarship, for boys from Maryland, amounts to as much as $3,000 a year for four years, and has been set up by the McCarthy-Hicks Foundation, which is maintained by McCarthy-Hicks, Inc., of Baltimore, a firm headed by F. Jordon Mc-Carthy '26. It will first be available to a member of next fall's entering class.

In addition to those boys who apply specifically for the McCarthy-Hicks Scholarship, which takes its place among the very top grants in Dartmouth's financial aid program, all scholarship applicants from Maryland will be considered for the award, according to Robert K. Hage '35, executive secretary of the Committee on Scholarships and Loans. The scholarship will be awarded by this Committee upon nomination by a special committee of Dartmouth alumni in Maryland. On the basis of academic promise, breadth of interest and achievement,, vigor and leadership, it will go to a boy who would otherwise find it difficult to attend Dartmouth.

The first Corporation Plan scholarship established at Dartmouth was that created by Metropolitan Distributors, Inc., of New York, of which Leon C. Greenebaum '27 is president. This provides an annual sum of $1600, half of which is a full-tuition scholarship of $800 and the other half of which is an $800 contribution to the College since the present tuition charge covers only one-half of the actual educational cost. The first award of the Metropolitan Distributors Scholarship was made this fall to Stanford Klapper '56 of West New York, N. J., varsity football player and a member of the Interdormitory Council and Green Key.

The scholarship in his memory is now held by Joseph A. Carter III '58 of South Orange, N. J., a top student and president of his class at Columbia High School.
