These awards are adminis- tered through the Committee on Student Aid and Scholarships. Ageording to Dean of Men R. C. Beaty, chairman of the committee, it is the poli¢y of the University to attempt to provide supplemen- tary assistance to as many deserv- ing students as possible, rather than to cover all expenses for a few. Awards are made not only on the basis of scholastic attainment, but also on the student’s potential ca- pacity to profit by college training and to make reasonable returns to society in the future. Many of the scholarships contain specifications on the reci- pient’s class standing, major field, hometown area and other eligibili- ty requirements, but the com- mittee makes every attempt to aid students in need who are adjudged worthy of assistance.’ The committee, composed of fac- ‘ulty and administrative staff mem- bers, compiles data on the available and collects information on the applicants, supplying this to donors when requested. When no scholarships are available at the time for a studeft, the com- time employment. The loan funds are of two kinds: short-term emergency loans, us- ually repayable within the semes- | * ter, and long-term loans which al- low the’ student to complete his education and repay the allotment after graduation. Scholarship holders from the Key West area include Jose Fidelis Hernandez who was awarded a Lo- vett’s scholarship. Home Nursing . Teachers Sought Mrs. George Towner, Home Nur- sing chairman for the Key West Chapter of the American Red Cross announces that the chapter is plan- * ning a Home Nursing instructor’s course early in January. All registered nurses or science and home economics teachers in the city who wish to do volunteer work for the community in ex- change for the Red Cross training are requested to contact Mrs. Towner or the chapter staff, tele- phone 2-3651 regarding applications. This is .an educational program conducted by the Red Cross chap- ters. It teaches simple nursing care of the sick in their own homes and ways of preventing illness.

When the instructors complete their training the chapter will plan classes for all interested persons in the community. Navy Relief Soc. Reports On Its Oct.
