Friends of the University, a committee of local residents which raised more than $2,000 this spring in an annual “Benefit Ball,” have selected 14 students at the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point for scholarships.

Circuit Judge and Mrs. James H. Levi, co-chairmen of the 1972 ball, said the amount of the grants at $200 and $100, and are given largely on the basis of academic achievement and incentive.

Selection was made by the “Friends” scholarship committee. Al but four of the 1972 recipients are upper classmen on campus. The others are incoming freshmen with music majors.

The winners included James G. Vorland, a senior in the drama department, and son of Mrs. Pearl Vorland of 223 S. First, Colby, who was given $200.
