To Southern young men who wish
TO attend a Northern university for
graduate or undergraduate work this
offers a rare opportunity, for 1t Is the
rule that scholarships are not awarded
until the end of a year of residence,
n not, as here, as residence begins.

has been getting a start, but these
scholarships solve that problem and
pave the way Tor a successful career

the Old Dominion who are eligible for
these scholarships and the countless
educational advanta ges to which they
lead. Self-support in Northern insti-
