THE BATTALION
THURSDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 10, 1946
Scientific Awards
Commenced by Ball
Lee Memorial Fund
Over $2000 are available to out
standing students in the field of
biological science who need finan
cial assistance, according to pro
visions of the Julia Ball Lee Fel
lowship, Dr: C. C. Doak, head of
the A&M biology department,
announced yesterday.
Set up by the late Dr. and
Mrs. Oscar M. Ball in honor of
their daughter, the trust provides
for the awarding of scholarships
to students needing financial as
sistance, primarily on the basis
of demonstrated merit. “Scholar
ships will normally be made for
the two semesters of an academic
year.” Dr. Doak said, “but as no
suitable applicant received the
grant for the fall semesters, awards
will be made in the near future
for the spring semester if appli
cants are suitable”. Administra
tors fo the Fellowships are Dean
T. D. Brooks, Dr. Doak, and Dr. G.
E. Potter, professor of zoology.
The amount of the awards will
be varied with the financial need
of the student with a minimum of
$50 and a maximum of $225 per se
mester.
Dr. Ball was for 34 years head
of the Department of Biology at
A&M. His wife, Mary M. Ball,
