The image appears to be a printed newspaper clipping or a document announcement placed on a plain background. The primary content of the document is an article titled "$60,000 Awarded for Research at Harvard." The text details a grant of $60,000 awarded to professors at Harvard University for research in the academic year 1931-32. The funds were provided under the provisions of a fund established by William F. Milton and a bequest by Joseph H. Clark.
The article explains the criteria for the awards, stating they aim to promote the physical and material welfare and prosperity of the human race, or to assist in the discovery and perfecting of special means of alleviating or curing human disease, or to investigate and determine the value or importance of any discovery or invention. It also mentions that this was the first year the Clark fund grants were available.
The document lists the names of the recipients of the grants, which include various professors and lecturers from different departments, such as History, English, Law, Chemistry, Anthropology, Geology, Seismology, Education, Natural History, Astronomy, French and Spanish Languages, Government, Philosophy, Physiology, Fine Arts, and more. The text provides the specific areas of research each recipient was involved in.
The document has a vintage look, with a yellowed paper and a small handwritten note in the lower left corner. There are also four holes on the left side of the document, suggesting it might have been part of a binder or a folder.
This image appears to be a scanned or photographed document from a historical source, possibly a newspaper or a printed announcement. The heading of the text reads, "$60,000 Awarded for Research at Harvard," indicating that the document is about the allocation of research funds to professors at Harvard University.
The text explains that forty-seven awards, totaling more than $60,000, have been given to professors to support their research in the 1931-32 academic year. These awards come from two funds: the Milton fund and the Clark bequest. The Milton fund supports research that promotes the physical and material welfare and prosperity of humanity, or aims to discover and perfect new methods to alleviate or cure human disease, or to determine the value of any discovery or invention. The Clark bequest supports original research in any field.
The document also mentions a committee that was appointed to distribute the funds from the Milton estate, which was received in the spring of 1924. The committee consists of Frank B. Jewett, an electrical engineer from New York who served as the chairman, Professor Edwin F. Gay from Harvard's economic department, and Dr. William M. Wheeler, a professor of entomology. The committee is responsible for selecting recipients from the proposed investigations by the university's teaching, scientific, or administrative staff.
The grants from both funds for the next year have been awarded to various professors and instructors across different departments and disciplines at Harvard. The list includes names of individuals along with their respective roles or areas of expertise, such as professors of history, chemistry, geology, mining engineering, seismology, education, natural history, astronomy, art, languages, meteorology, government, business history, economics, mathematics, philosophy, physiology, political economy, English, metallurgy, psychology, and zoology.
The document is a valuable historical record of the support for academic research at Harvard University during the early 1930s and provides insight into the diverse range of disciplines that were being studied and the individuals who were leading these research efforts.

“$60,000 Awarded for Research at Harvard”
The article details the awarding of 47 grants totaling more than $60,000 to professors at Harvard University in 1931-32. These grants were made possible through two funds: the Milton Fund (established by the late William F. Milton) and the Clark bequest (from William H. Clark, 1887). The article explains that these funds are intended to encourage and advance original research, particularly for alleviating human disease or for the discovery and perfection of inventions.
It notes this was the first year Harvard received the legacy from the Clark estate (received in 1931) and describes the committee appointed to oversee the grants, chaired by Frank B. Jewett (electrical engineer) and including Professor Edwin F. Gay and Dr. William M. Wheeler.
The article concludes by listing dozens of professors and their departments who received the grants. Some mentioned include:
The list continues, covering departments such as Zoology, Philosophy, Psychology, Economics, Mathematics, and more.
Below the headline and to the left of the main text, there is a handwritten note in pencil that reads: “Terry Copy 4”.

The image is a scanned copy of a newspaper clipping from 1931-32. The headline reads, "60,000 Awarded for Research at Harvard." The article discusses a fund established by the late William P. Milton, a bequest of the late Joseph P. Milton, which grants funds for research in the interests of promoting the physical and material welfare and prosperity of the human race. The income from the fund is to be devoted to the encouragement and advancement of original research.
The article mentions that this is the first year the fund has been available, and Harvard has already received the legacy from the Milton estate. A committee was appointed at Harvard to advise the president and fellows of Harvard College in making a selection among the investigations proposed by any member of the instructing, scientific, or administrative staff of the university. The committee will henceforth make grants under the fund bequest.
The article lists the names of 47 professors and instructors at Harvard University who have been awarded grants, ranging from $1,000 to $2,000 each, for their research projects. The projects cover a wide range of fields, including chemistry, zoology, geology, mining engineering, history, economics, astronomy, and psychology.
