PRIZES TO HARVARD MEN

The first prize of $100 offered by B. F. Keith's Bijou Theatre for a one-act comedy has been awarded to George Francis Abbott 1G., of Rochester, N. Y., for a comedy entitled, "The Man in the Manhole"; the second prize of $50 to Stephen Finis Austin 2G., of San Antonio, Tex., for a comedy entitled, "The Winning of General Jane"; special mention has been made of "The Web," by Alice Brown, of Boston, it being considered of unusual merit. The fact that it was not a comedy barred it from receiving a prize.

In all, 179 manuscripts were received. The judges were Professor G. P. Baker '87, Mr. Francis Powell, coach of the Harvard Dramatic Club, and Mr. Walter Hampden, of New York City.
