Fernald Bequest

THE College has received a bequest of $10,000 from the estate of the late Mrs. Alice L. Fernald of Milton, Mass., the widow of Dr. Guy G. Fernald '93 who died in 1939. He had been physician and psychiatrist at the Massachusetts Reformatory in West Concord.

The bequest, which will constitute the Guy G. Fernald '93 and John S. Fernald '34 Memorial Fund, will be used to support the Daniel Webster National Scholarships. Dr. and Mrs. Fernald's only son, John S. '34, died in 1948.

Other scholarship support has come from the General Electric Company which has given a $650 scholarship, available to a student entering his senior year at the Tuck School in 1956-57. Accompanying the scholarship is an unrestricted grant of $350 to the College. Preference will be given to that candidate possessing an interest in the non-technical side of manufacturing, in accordance with a G.E. program whereby scholarships in specific fields are offered on a rotation basis to various colleges and universities.

An Owen D. Young Fellowship, another G.E. award carrying a minimum stipend of $1750, has been made to James L. Flynn '56 of Cleveland, for graduate study in his second year at Tuck School.

The College recently has received also two unrestricted gifts. The sum of $2,000 was given by the Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Beane Foundation. James D. Corbett '32, a partner in the firm, presented the money as an unrestricted gift allocated to the Class of 1932 Memorial Fund.

In addition, $1,000 has been given to the College by the firm of Bridgeport Fabrics Inc., of Bridgeport, Conn. The gift was made through H. Burling Naramore '33, president, and Robert W. Naramore '35, vice president.
