The eleventh annual series of fellowship awards made by the trustees of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation to forty-seven American scholars and artists, to enable them to carry on research and creative work in this country and abroad, is announced today by Henry Allen Moe, secretary.

Founded in 1925 by former United States Senator and Mrs. Simon Guggenheim as a memorial to a son, the Foundation has granted 629 fellowships without distinction of race, color or creed, to scholars and creative workers. On this year’s list are three Negroes and one Japanese. The stipends are normally $2,000 a year.

Liefmann Calmer, born Moses Eliezer Lipmann ben Kalonymus, became in 1774 Baron of Picquigny and Viscount of Amiens.
