He is one of 21 to receive the grant, and must spend at least two semesters or three terms during the next college year in full-time graduate work. He said that he has not decided on a school.

The Dow Chemical Company is renewing its $2,500 fellowship for 1957-58 at KU, Dr. A. W. Davidson, chairman of the chemistry department, announced recently.
The fellowship will be used to support summer research by one member of the chemistry faculty and by several graduate students, probably five.

2 Get Honors In Chemistry
It pays to study. Ask James Cederberg, Herndon, and Larry Kevan, Kansas City, Kan., both freshmen.
They were awarded copies of the Chemical Rubber Co. Hand-book for Freshman Chemistry for maintaining the highest averages in Chemistry 2 and Chemistry 2E.
"A phenomenal average of over 99 was maintained by one of the students," Arthur W. Davidson, professor of chemistry, said, "but because of the different grading systems used in different schools I would rather not give their individual numerical grades."
The handbooks have been returned to the company to have the names of the students engraved on the covers. Prof. Davidson said official recognition would be given at the annual awards dinner in April.

54th
The world stood in turmoil. In every direction could be seen the chaotic remains of once proud cultures and civilizations. The Eiffel tower lay broken and twisted in a dull atomic waste which had been Paris only a few short months before. The Thames flowed stagnant and thick, in the shadow of a wasted London, full of huge chunks of scorched steel which had roamed the earth as battleships and cruisers in the past.
Te portals of The Kremlin were gone, and the only resemblance between Moscow and a world of life came in the form of a sad grey smoke which drifted up, and around, and over the stillness which enveloped even the smoke itself. No wheat grew in Kansas, no machinery clashed and groaned along the Atlantic seaboard, and no memorial to Abraham Lincoln guarded the placid waters of the Potomac as it journeyed along its twisting course to the sea.
A little life remained. People still walked and talked, but seldom laughed, along an uneven, jagged strip of land in The United States. The opposing forces had come to a halt on either side of the Mississippi. A rest for the purpose of resting, and thinking, and wondering, wondering where they were going and what they would have after they reached their goal.
There was a glimmer of humility in men who had never recognized its existence before. The leaders knew by now that whoever won the battle between men would lose an even greater struggle with nature, all possibilities of production would be gone when this last tiny island of green disappeared in a blast of high explosives.
It was with this thought in their minds that a Russian named Khrushev and an American called Eisenhower sat in their individual tents, struggling with tired brains to find an answer. Could there be a solution, a challenging way to decide who was to rule without ending life on earth forever.
You say that you are the best at Bridge, and that you could have won the all important hand on the edge of the big river. Why don't you find out, the S. U. A. is giving you your chance. There is going to be a highly challenging Bridge tournament held Wednesday, February 13 in the Jayhawk room of the Union. Pick up a partner, bring yourself, and come on over. A good time is guaranteed and trophies will be awarded to the winners. Who knows, the man in the tale might turn out to be you, not Ike.
The democratic leader had an ideal. But did the communist know how to play the game? And even if he understood, would he accept the invitation? He had to try, it was the only chance, and the chance you have is the chance you take. Eisenhower sent a courier to the opposing camp under a flag of truce. The plan was proposed, and accepted by the enemy.
Student Union Activities
A hand of the most challenging card game ever devised, a game which required skill and brains, and in this case courage, courage to risk your way of life so that the world might continue. A solution which called for all the knowledge and might of spirit needed in war, but which resulted in no bloodshed. And in this manner the fate of life was settled. You ask who won? I do not know because my vision of the future ended at that point, all I know is that it is bound to happen. I have my own ideas about who won and you will have yours also. That is all that is important, anyway.
The two men met in a sheltered bend of the Mississippi, a dimly lighted tent held two tired figures, a table, two chairs, and a deck of cards. It was to be a single hand of Cambridge Bridge, a single hand of cards for the rule of the world, or at least what was left of it after the war. It may sound silly, or even childish at first thought, but when you let your mind drift over the situation for a moment, what could be better?
