DENTAL SCHOLARSHIPS
FOR DISADVANTAGED
MINORITIES
Originally a dental
scholarship program for black
students, this program was
broadened last year to include
other minority students
under-represented in the
dental profession. This was
made possible by a new grant
of $172,500 from the WJC.
Kellogg Foundation.
Kellogg contributed a
$177,500 three-year challenge
grant in 1968 to establish the
initial scholarship program.
This is a five-year program
which begins with the final
year of pre-dental studies and
includes four years of dental
school. Last year 40
scholarships were awarded:
Six to sophomore dental
students, who are now
completing the third year of
the scholarship program; eight
to freshmen students
(second and
26 to students in their final
year of pre-dental education.
Commented David Sloane,
Special Projects Coordinator
for the Wm. Wrigley Jr.
Company and Chairman of
the Scholarship Awards
Committee: “Each year
increasing numbers of
minority students are being
admitted to U.S. dental
schools. We feel very strongly
that this scholarship and
recruitment program has been
a major factor in the increase.
“Enrollment of black
students, for example, has
increased from 330 to 457
since the program began. In
1970 black freshman
enrollment was 185 as
opposed to 83 in 1968. In
spite of these gains, there is a
great deal of room for
improvement in this area.

this new awareness of the
need for more minority
students to pursue careers in
dentistry is the recruitment
program financed by the
Kellogg Foundation, which
has made thousands of black
and other minority students
aware of the possibilities of a
career in dentistry.”
To date $152,934 has been
expended for this program.
According to Mr. Sloane,
sufficient monies have been
raised to fund all scholarship
recipients through the
1974-75 school year.
In a report on the
Hillenbrand Fellowship in
Dental Administration,
President Morris told the
assembeled directors and
trustees that the first
recipient, Dr. Erik Olsen, is
making excellent progress and
will complete the fellowship
on September 30. The
Fellowship Advisory Board,
however, has decided to allow
a period of time for
evaluation of the program
after Dr. Olsen completes his
training, prior to awarding a
second fellowship. Additional
time is needed also, he
commented, to assure funding
of a second fellowship.

JUDGES CAN'T DECIDE
With judges admitting they
couldn’t come to that final
decision, two young pianists
were named winners of the
William S. Boyd Competition
in Augusta June 5 in a tie
vote. Miss Julie Bees, 18
year-old freshman at the
Peabody Conservatory in
Baltimore, and James Cook,
22 year-old graduate assistant
at the Conservatory of Music
of the University of Missouri
at Kansas City, were named
winners of the Boyd prize,
offered through the Augusta
Symphony by Augusta
physician William S. Boyd.
The split decision was not
the only surprise brought on
by the competition. Dr. Boyd,
in announcing the two
winners, also stated that he
would increase the purse to
SISOO, or $750 to each.
Competition announcements
had declared that the SIOOO
Prize would be split, SSOO to
each, in the event of a tie.
Miss Bees and Cook received
SSOO immediately, ( with the
extra $250 to be awarded
next fall and winter when
they return to perform as
guest artists with the Augusta
Symphony.
Judges for the event were
Lucien De Groote, director of
the Charleston Symphony,
and Jacques Abram, professor
of piano and artist-in-residence
at South Florida University in
Tampa.
Miss Bees, the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Bees of
Dallas, Texas, graduated cum
laude from the Hockaday
School in that city. She was a
finalist in the New York
Philharmonic Young Peoples
Concerts, won the National
Federation of Music Club
scholarship to the National
Music Camp at Interlochen,
Michigan, and for three
summers was the piano
concerto winner. She was also
awarded the Van Cliburn
piano scholarship to
Interlochen for the 1969 and
1970 seasons. During the
coming summer she will study
with Jerome Lowenthal at the
Music Academy of the West in
Santa Barbara, California. She
has been soloist with the
Miami Symphonic Society
Orchestra, the World Youth
Symphony Orchestra, the
University of Texas Orchestra
and the Dallas Symphony
Orchestra. Currently she is
studying with Leon Fleisher,
and former teachers have
included Peggy Neighbors
Erwin of Coral Gables, Alfred
Mouledous and Alexander
Uninsky of Dallas, and Nelita
True at Interlochen.
Cook is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Marvin Cook of Desloge,
Missouri. He recently won the
St. Louis Philharmonic
Competition and will perform
November 22 with the St.
Louis Philharmonic Orchestra.
Currently a candidate for the
Masters degree, he is a student

embers, stir them with a stick,
soak them again, then cover
the area with dirt.
Some other hints
recommended by the Red
Cross to make your camping
trip safer and more
pleasurable are:
Keep knives and axes sharp,
but sheathed when not in use.
Stay away from animals
and snakes. Observe them
from a safe distance.
Learn how to recognize
poisonous plants-poison ivy,
oak and sumac.
Don’t eat berries or
mushrooms unless you are
absolutely sure they are
edible.
Keep garbage in a securely
closed container to deter
insects and prowling animals.
Give yourself plenty of
time for the return trip home.
Make frequent rest stops and
drive at sensible speeds.
