282 Area Pupils Get
Scholarship Chance

A chance at four-year col
lege grants awaits 282 high
school seniors in the Greater
Washington area who were
named semifinalists today in
the National Merit Scholarship
program.
The bright seniors we're
among the highest-scoring stu
dents in a qualifying test given
earlier this year in $4,000 high
schools in the United States
and the territories. They are
seeking four-year scholarships
to the college of their choice.
The National Merit Scholar
ship Corp, a profit organ
ization of Evanston, Ill, today
released the names of about
10000 semifinalists who moved
a step closer to a four-year
scholarship.
After they take the College
Entrance Examination Board
tests December 2, about 81 per
cent of the seniors will become
finalists. About 1000 will be
named Merit Scholars next
spring on the basis of their
grades and careful examina-
ton of their entire school rec
ords.
The scholarship awards,
which may reach ST, 500 annu-
ally according to need, average
about $500 a year. Some so per
cent of semifinalists obtain

The Reluctant African" by Louis
E. Lomax ($2.95).
I have mentioned the Lomax
book before. 1t is the story Of an
American Negro newspaperman
who went to Africa to learn what
was happening. In light Of recent
events in the Congo and elsewhere
Mr.. Lomax' observations become
particularly pertinent.
Don't let the title of the Shon-
field book brighten you. 1t sounds
forbidding, but actually this is one
Of the best-written books on a sub
ject that ordinarily is made about
as interesting as an actuarial
table.
Shonfield is on leave as Econ
omics Editor of The London OBJ
server. He takes a broad look at
the question Of economic aid to the
underdeveloped countries and sees
two problems: ~ How to con-
tinue the help without impairing
the economic situation Of the donor
country; (2) How to administer
the funds more efficiently.
Since the Kennedy Administra-
ton is now in the process of re-
examining the whole foreign aid
program, the book Is especially
timely. Mr.. Shonfield finds much
to criticize, but he is also hopeful.
He is sharp in his criticism of
Eugene Black, the president of the
World Bank.
In a way what he says about
Black sums up the situation as
Shonfield sees it. You cannot ad-
minister a foreign aid program as
you would a shoe factory. Black,
he feels, has behaved too much
like a banker The result has been
that we have missed many OPP
portunities to win friends and in
fiuence for the West.
