wil be held from 2 to 4 p.m. and 2 to
5 p.m. today in Rm. 204 University
Hall and Rm. 205 Mason Hall res-

Two stipends of $30 and $20 are
carried by the Kothe-Hildner fund
which was set up in 1937 by Her-
man L. Kothe, '10, in honor of his
German instructor, Jonathan A. C.
Hildner who retired in 1938 after 50
years of service. The contest, open to
students of German 31, 32, 35 and 36,
is translation from German to Eng-
lish and English to German.
The prize of $27 awarded the win-
ner of the Bronson-Thomas contest

Thomas B. Bronson, 1881, in memory
of Calvin Thomas, professor of Ger-
man languages and literature from
1878 until 1896. The award is made
for the best essay on some phase of
German literature from 1750 to 1900
written by junior or senior students
of German, but of American training.

Students May
Aiply Now for
Stlents who intend to apply orl
reapply for scholarships for the fall
semester should go to the offices ofl
the deans in their own colleges, Frank
E. Robbins, Assistant to the Presi-
dent announced yesterday.
These students should secure the
application forms without further de-
lay, he added. Due to the linprece-
dented increase this term in' student
enrollment there will be a heavier
demand on the number of existing
scholarships, particularly on thove
for which students from any school
in the University may apply.
To determine their eligibility for
scholarships, students may obtain
copies of the Bulletin on Scholar-
ships, Fellowships, Prizes and Loan
Funds. For information about schol-
arships available in their own col-
leges they should see the dean in their
respective college.
