Ag College
Will Honor
Carl Grav
Ag college students and alumni
who have attended the college
thru Carl Raymond Gray scholar
ships are getting together at the
Student Union, Thursday evening,
May 1, to honor the man respons
ible for starting the scholarship
plan.
Of the hundreds of students who
have benefited from the scholar
ships awarded in the past 26 years.
about 125 are expected to attend
the meeting. The occasion for the
meeting is an opportunity for the
students to meet some of the Un
ion Pacific officials and the pre
sentation of a portrait of the late
Carl Rnvmrmrt Clrav i-Vii-V nHIl ha
nung at the college.
Both 4-H club members and
Smith-Hughes students in high
schools in counties through which
the railroad runs are eligible for
the scholarship. The scholarships
were made possible by the Union
Paciac railroad, through the ef
forts of Carl Gray, when he was
president of the road.
. L. I. Frisbie, state 4-H leader,
recalled that the scholarships were
an outgrowth -of a visit of Mr.
Gray to the college in 1920. The
railroad president asked which
might be done to boost, the en
rollment at the college. The schol
arships were then set up for 4-H
club members, and were awarded
to outstanding 4-H boys and girls
who stood high scholastically. and
were leaders in 4-H activity. Lat
er, in 1926, the scholarships were
also made available to Smith-
Hughes vocational agriculture stu
dents.
The success of the scholarships
in Nebraska, prompted an exten
sion of the program to other states
served by the railroad.

of the various nations."

:irEi!nige
European nations and the univer
sity for five scholarships a.-e now
in the process of negotiation. They
will provide full tuition, board
and room, but will not include
travel costs. They will be oper
ated on a full reciprocal basis un
der which Nebraska will not pro
vide scholarships to foreign uni
versities unless similar provision
is made for our scholars.
Negotiations.
Norway, Sweden, Switzerland,
Germany, Austria, England and
Poland are included in the list of
countries with which negotiations
are now in progress. Inquiries
have also been received from sev
eral other countries.
According to Dr. Rosenlof. the
scholarships will be limited to five
persons because of crowded con
ditions at the university. However,
since enrollment may decline
somewhat in later years, the num
ber may be expanded.
"This is a fine opportunity for
the University to make its con
tribution to better world under
standing and help create interna
tional good will, which is so sorely
needed in the world today," Ros
enlof said.
