Scholarships.

Those who have found reason, (inadequate, we must protest), to disapprove of the doings of Victoria College in certain non-scholastic directions, will no doubt be gratified—though possibly surprised—to observe that when the time comes for the distribution of academic honours we are not the least among our brethren.

Winners of Senior Scholarships this year were:—Frances E. Rainforth (Latin), A. C. Keys (Greek), Jean H. Mather (English—Tinline), A. E. Campbell (Education), D. J. Donald (Philosophy), F. W. G. White (Physics), R. A. Robbie (History—Special), I. J. Cunningham (Chemistry—Special Scholarship).

The Jacob Joseph Scholarship was awarded to Mr, E. Beaglehole, M.A.

The Sir George Grey Scholarship was won by Mr. R. M. Dolby, and the Lissie Rathbone Scholarship by Miss Peggie Metson.

Dr. Hilda G. Heine, M.A., our new Lecturer in Economics, in addition to all her previous successes, has now carried off a Sarah Anne Rhodes Fellowship.

Mr. E. Beaglehole, M.A., and Mr. F. G. Spurdle, M.A., have been awarded Post-Graduate Scholarships in Arts; Free Passages have also been granted them. They bothproceed Home early in August, to study at the University of London.

In addition to this, Mr. E. Beaglehole has won a National Research Scholarship.

"Spike" hastens to bestow heartiest congratulations on one and all.
