Rockefeller Grants Go To Pearcy and Link

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Two Harvard seniors have been named the first recipients of Michael C. Rockefeller Memorial Fellowships.

E. Perry Link of Dunster House and Plattsburgh, N.Y., and Glen J. Pearcy of Quincy House and St. Louis, Mo., will each receive $5000 to spend a year in foreign countries carrying out personally conceived, non-academic projects.

Link plans to spend next year in Hong Kong interviewing refugees from Communist China. Pearcy will travel to either Africa or India to take artistic and documentary photographs.

The fellowships were offered by the Rockefeller family to Harvard and Radcliffe seniors in honor of Michael C. Rockefeller '60 who disappeared in the jungles of New Guinea in 1961.
