NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Announcement of the award of five fellowships for study and travel abroad was made by University Hall Saturday. At the same time, the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation announced that ten members of the Faculty were among those to receive its awards this year.

As recipient of the Lionel de Jersey Harvard Studentship, David E. McGiffert '49 of Chicago will study for a year at Cambridge University in England.

Daniel B. Ray '49 of Brooklyn, New York won the Henry Russell Shaw Fellowship, which was created to enable a graduate who showed a promise of success in a professional or business career to travel in Europe.

David F. Wheeler '47 of Cambridge will study in a French University under the terms of the Clifford Tower Fellowship which he won.
