Announcement on March 13th of forty-four awards to officers of instruction or administration in the University, in accordance with the provisions of the Milton Fund for Research.
Grants from the Fund are made for not more than two years, and the total amount of such awards during the applications feels that regular annual grants to the same applicant should be avoided as this tends to limit the freedom of the funds and to prevent the extension of aid to other worthy applicants.
The sum of $40,000 for the year 1933-34 has been awarded in grants of varying amounts.
Harvard received the legacy, yielding an annual income of about $60,000, in the spring of 1924.
After the death of his wife, the bulk of the estate of the late William F. Milton, '98, was to go to Harvard.
The Corporation of Harvard University decided that if the University had a suitable library building, to defray the expenses of any special investigation of a medical, geographical, historical, or scientific nature.
A committee was appointed at Harvard, consisting of President A. Lawrence Lowell, as chairman; Professor William M. Wheeler, and Professor Charles H. McIlwain, of Harvard University, to advise the President and Fellows of Harvard College.
The Corporation, on being advised by the Committee, may make grants for research conducted by any member of the instructing, scientific, or administrative staff of the University.
Requests for aid in such research were received by the Committee up to January 10th.
A number of the recommendations of the Committee for grants from the Milton Fund for next year have been awarded to the following persons for the objects specified:
Glover Morrill Allen, Associate Professor of Zoology: to study the origin and migration of mammals, and their types and other genera in foreign museums for a monograph on bats of genus Pipistrellus.
Lawrence Willis Baker, Professor of Orthodontia: to study the growth and development of the bones of the head and the effects of deficient diet on tooth development and the amount of the enamel of the teeth.
Thomas Barbour, Professor of Zoology: to aid in the publication of the third edition of the "Check List of North American Reptiles and Amphibians."
Joseph Charles Hinsey, Assistant Professor of Zoology: for a study of the relationship and geographical distribution of African Achatind mollusks.
