Scholarships vw wr , 44 44 and Elwarois i l University Scholarships, 1935 HE Departmental Examination results of 1935 again demon- strated that a very high standard of work is accomplished by a large number of the hundred or so students registered in the Upper School of the London South Collegiate Institute. The proportion of First Class Honours lobtained was a source of great satis- lfaction to the staff and friends of this school. As a result of their excellent foundation We are quite repared to predict some excellent ecords will be made by graduates of fthis group in their university courses lor other branches of more advanced study which they may select. Three pf this graduating class were awarded scholarships by the University of Western Ontario on the results of the 1935 Honour Matriculation Examina- tions. The General Proticiency Scholar- ship for highest standing in English, History, Mathematics and two Sciences, of a value of 360000, was awarded to Leverne Williams. He also ranked for seven other scholar- ships of smaller value. His splendid record of ten first class honours was quite in accordance with what we had learned to expect throughout his course. The scholarship for highest stand- ing on Biology, Physics, Chemistry and any other two papers, of a value of 330000, was awarded to Ross Anderson. Along with this award. Ross ranked for four other scholar- ships of the same or smaller value. He had eight firsts and one second class honours on his nine papers.

To these scholarship winners and also to several others who. as under- graduates won University of Western Ontario Scholarships this year, we wish to extend our heartiest con- gratulations and to convey to them the assurance that our interest in their future success is exceedingly keen.
