BENNETT AWARDS ARE ANNOUNCED

McKillop Scholarships Also Given Out-- High Marks Obtained by Winners

Bennett, in 1922, and by the late Archie McKillop about the same time, for public and high schools in the city, have been announced by the registrar of the department of education. The results are based on the examinations of June, 1930, and the list was received late Monday by D. C. Bayne, secretary-treasurer of the Calgary Public School Board.
