Medals for outstanding artistic achievements in 1959 were presented here yesterday by the Brandeis University at a ceremony at the Sheraton-East Hotel, attended by Dr. Abram L. Sachar, university president, and David Woodlinger, director of the United States Fulbright Program.
The awards were given to Ernest Bloch in music; Mrs. Hilda Doolitle Adlington, poetry; Edwin Dickinson, painting, and George Kelly, the theatre. Grants of $1, 500 each were awarded to four younger artists who have demonstrated “promising potential” in the same fields. These grants went to Seymour Shifrin, music; Hayden Carruth, poetry; Theodoros Stamos, painting, and Richard Hayes, drama criticism.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
