By RANDY ZUSMAN James Arney, Robert Shiller and Myles Stern have been named finalists in the National Merit Scholarship competition. They are now eligible for the scholarships awards, ha v i n g scored in the top one-half of one per cent of the nation's high school seniors on the Qualifying Test and made satis- factory scores on the follow-up test. Seniors Philip Klahr, Robert Shiller, Myles Stern and Gary Weinman scored among the top four per cent of participants in the Sixth Annual Michigan Mathematics Prize Competition. They will receive certificates of recognition for having suc- cessfully competed against 12,- 187 participants from 450 high schools. The Competition is an ac- tivity of the Michigan Section of the Mathematical Associa- tion of America and is run by representatives from Michigan State, Wayne State and Univer- sity of Michigan. Every Tuesday evening, 28 advanced students at South- field High School voluntarily meet to help make Southfield a better community in which to live. Being the newest pro- gram at Southfield, this col- lege type seminar has finan- cial backing from private grants as well as the Ford Motor Co. Such notables as Mayor James Clarkston, Council President Hugh Dohany, Superintendent of Schools Dr. John W. English and High School Principal Rob- ert Hall were guest speakers at the seminar last semester. To help achieve their goal of developing a feeling of co- operation, identity and appre- ciation of one's community, this seminar-at-large has two major projects. The first is to complete informative brochures on the problems of the commu- nity. The second is to organize and conduct a "Meet Your City Night" at the high school. Southfield's debate team hosted and won the district elimination tournament for the state championship. Win- ning teams for Southfield were Jim Arney and June Bagdade, affirmative, and Jim Voss and Paula Levitt, negative. Three Southfield students were selected to participate in the Detroit portion of the In- ternational Science Youth Day. Richard Andrew, Bob Ben- zinger and I were hosted by the General Motors Educational Relations Section of the College University Relations Staff. The day consisted of a morning tour of the General Motors Techni- cal Center at Warren, a lunch- eon at Greenfield Village and an afternoon tour and program at Thomas Edison's shop and the Edison Institute Museum. We saw something of each of the principal buildings of the tech center and viewed demon- strations illustrating different types of work in science, en- gineering, or mathematics. "F inia n's Rainbow," the spring musical production . will be staged 7:30 p.m. March 8, 9, 15 and 16.

College Scholarships for Jewish Farm Youth A renewal of last year's schol- arship program for promising Jewish farm boys and girls de- siring to attend college was an- nounced by the Jewish Agricul- tural Society, an affiliate of the Baron de Hirsch Fund. The society noted that it had awarded 65 scholarships for the 1962-1963 academic year, the largest number since its program began. These awards were made possibly by a generous grant from the Baron de Hirsch Fund and it is hoped that the number of scholarships to be given for the 1963-1964 year will at least equal the number in the current academic year. Sons and daughters of active Jewish f arm e r s in need of financial assistance who will be attending a college or university in the United States in the 1963- 1964 academic year are eligible for these scholarships, including those who will be entering for the first time next fall. These awards will be made on the basis of merit and need. The Baron de Hirsch Fund was established 71 years ago to help immigrant Jews settle in the United States. One of its majOr functions was to help Jewish farmers. Applications can be obtained from the office of the Jewish Agricultural Society, 386 Park Ave. South, New York 16.
