SENIOR AND JUNIOR ORATORS

Names for Boylston Elocution Competition Must be in by Thursday.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The last day for receiving names of Seniors and Juniors who expect to enter the competition for the Boylston Prizes for Elocution is Thursday, April 2, when all candidates must have handed in their names to Dean Briggs, Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory.

The Boylston Prizes consist of two first prizes of $30 each and three second prizes of $20 each. The first prizes may be withheld if none of the competitors appear to deserve them. The Corporation, and gentlemen selected by the Corporation, will act as judges and award the prizes.

The prizes will be awarded at a public competition May 14. The students must speak, not their own compositions, but selections from English, Greek, or Latin authors; the proportion in English is to be at least two out of three. The selections must be approved by the Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory.
