Greene Announces Date of Next Henry Awards Uncertain Because of War In Europe

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Due to the European war, this year's competition among American college students for the Charles and Julia Henry Fellowships for study at Oxford or Cambridge has been indefinitely postponed Jerome D. Greene, one of the American trustees of the fellowships, announced yesterday.

These awards, of 500 pounds sterling each, were established by the bequest of Lady Julia Lewisohn Henry "in earnest hope and desire of cementing bonds of friendship between the British Empire and the United States."

"In view of the possibility that hostilities might cease before the end of the current academic year," Greene added, "the trustees will in the meantime register the names of any persons who wish to be regarded as possible candidates for a Henry Fellowship for 1940-41."

Of the seven Americans awarded the fellowships for the current year, only Ray S. Cline '39, of Terre Haute, Indiana, is definitely known to have taken up his fellowship; he is at Oxford.
