Five Seniors Given Danforth Fellowships

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Five Harvard seniors have been elected Danforth Graduate Fellows for 1966.

The Danforth Foundation every year elects 120 college seniors, with outstanding scholastic records, who are interested in teaching on the college level.

The fellows will receive tuition, fees and a stipend to cover the cost of one year of graduate study at any college in the country. The fellowships are normally renewable for three additional years.

The seniors are Henry C. Binford '66 of Winthrop House and Washington, D.C., John H. Erickson '66, of Dudley House and Brainerd, Minn., William P. Frerking '66, of Quincy House and St. Louis, Mo., James H. Kettner '66 of Adams House and Saginaw, Mich., and Peter B. Machinist '66, of Lowell House and Manchester, N.H.

This year Harvard nominated five seniors, and all five were selected by the foundation.
