CHANGES I N REGULATIONS GOVERNING SMITH MUSIC SCHOLARSHIPS (4) By the terms of a gift of the late Captain T h o m a s J. Smith of funds to build the Smith Memorial Hall, which w a s accepted by t h e Board of Trustees, the Board of Trustees established four scholarships each year for women students in t h e School of Music who a r e unable to pay the customary charges for instruction in the School of Music. Preference is given to applicants from Champaign County as provided in t h e will, but others are encouraged to apply. These scholarships a r e awarded on the basis of comparative promise in Music as judged by the Smith Scholarship Committee of the School of Music. Each applicant must submit an essay of 250 words on some subject in music chosen by herself. This scholarship exempts the holder from the matriculation and incidental fees and the special fee for instruction in applied music for a period of one year. It may be renewed for a second, third, or fourth year, if t h e student maintains an average of " B " in the University. T h e Committee which administers the awards of these scholarships is concerned over t h e number lost through failure of the holders to achieve the very high scholastic average required for renewal. It, therefore, has recommended the following changes in t h e regulations: 1. T h e scholarship may be renewed for a second year if the holder maintains a scholastic average of 3.5 during her freshman year and it may be extended for a third and a fourth year if t h e holder maintains during t h e preceding year a scholastic average of 4.0. 2. If the scholarship holder fails to maintain an average grade high enough to merit renewal, the scholarship shall be suspended, but it may be restored when
