Malheur Bulle Church Groups Report Activities New Books Listed At County Library Nyssa Graduates Earn Cash Awards At Oregon State Two Nyssa high school gradu ates were among the nearly 150 students chosen to receive the 1963-64 cash award scholarships, just announced by the Oregon State Scholarship commission. They are Hazel Marie Dillon, Box 714, and Wilma Williamson, 625 North First street, both of Nyssa. They were selected from a field of 600 applicants for this year’s cash award scholarships adminis tered by the commission, accord ing to its chairman, E. B. Lemon. It is the goal of the scholarship commission to get into college, students who deserve to be there but are unable to do so without financial assistance. Because of the high ratio of scholarship needs to the amount of funds available, the commission is embarking on a program to ob tain scholarship endowments from private sources, a responsibility authorized by state law. Recipients of scholarship awards are approved by the entire mem bership of the State Scholarship commission. In addition to the chairman, members are Mrs. E. B. MacNaughton and Thomas L. Scanlon, Portland; Sidney Schles inger, Salem; and Lynn S. Mc Cready, Eugene. David D. Johnson is executive secretary of the group which awards scholarships to both state and private institutions of higher education through the state. Hard of Hearing?
