Magazine to Give Prize

Beginning next year Harvard Magazine will offer a $1000 annual award for the best article by a Harvard faculty member published in the magazine, editor John T. Bethell '54 said yesterday.

The prize, named for A. Calvert Smith '14, former associate editor of the Harvard Alumni Bulletin, originated in a fund set up by Calvert's widow in 1956. Since 1959 the fund has given sporadic awards of several hundred dollars to faculty members. A recent anonymous contribution to the Calvert fund has made possible the establishment of the $1000 prize, Bethell said.

Judges for the award are Harvard Magazine editor Kit Reed, editorial advisory board members William-Beninck Smith, Max Hall and Alden Whitman '34, and Bethell.
