News and Notes

Professor and Mrs. F. B. Morrison, of Cornell University, have offered funds to the American Society of Animal Production to provide annual awards for a period of five years, to members of the Society, who have done outstanding recent research of direct importance in livestock production. The award each year will consist of a cash award of $1,000 and a gold medal or other suitable permanent form of recognition. Professor Morrison states that they may wish to continue the awards beyond a five-year period, if conditions are suitable. The Executive Committee has accepted this generous offer, on behalf of the Society, and will establish procedures for making the awards.
