REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE SELECTION SUB-COMMITTEE.

*

THE Sub-Committee met on the 21st of June, 1915, to consider various matters in connexion with the Carnegie studentships.

The Sub-Committee first considered the letter from Dr. C. Gordon Hewitt to Mr. Marshall, dated the 12th of April, with regard to the Carnegie studentships, which was remitted to the Sub-Committee at the last meeting of the Managing Committee.

Mr. Marshall explained that the existing arrangements had almost all been made on Dr. Howard's recommendation, and that some of Dr. Howard's new pro- posals would be difficult to put into effect. The various points raised were fully discussed. It was decided that the general effect of the reply should be to thank Dr. Hewitt and Dr. Howard, and to say that the memorandum had been carefully considered and that as far as possible their recommendations would be adopted. It was left to Mr. Marshall to settle how far this could be done.

The Sub-Committee considered applications from Mr. G. H. Corbett and Mr. E. Hargreaves for the extension of their studentships for a short period. Mr. Marshall laid before the Sub-Committee a statement of the Carnegie Students Fund, showing that there would be on the 30th of June, 1915, an unexpended balance of £468 2s. 2d., of which £235 2s. 9d. would, apart from any extensions of studentships, be paid out before the end of the year. It was decided to extend the studentships for such a period as would enable Mr. Corbett and Mr. Hargreaves to remain in the United States until the end of August.

It was decided to grant an application from Mr. J. D. Tothill for a six months' studentship during the winter of 1915-16.

The members of the Sub-Committee were invited to make recommendations for additional suitable candidates for studentships, but no recommendations were forthcoming.

Attention was drawn to the fact that none of the Carnegie students had been willing to go to Uganda to help Mr. Fiske. The Sub-Committee thought this unsatisfactory. They did not think it practicable to make it a condition of the studentships that students should, if desired, undertake work in the tropics, but it was considered that, other things being equal, candidates who would go to the tropics should be preferred.
