Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, representing the Sherwood Awards jurors, presented cash totalling $14,000 to five shows which the jurors selected for dealing most effectively with the subject of freedom and justice in America. John Daly, ABC network vice president, received a plaque and Irving Engel, president of the American Jewish Committee, was awarded a special citation for “The Trophy.”
