Dear Sir,
A few months ago the Acting Colonial
Secretary for Trinidad was kind enough
to circulate Heads of Departments sug-
gesting that they might care to support
the appeal which we are making for
used Colonial and Foreign postage
stamps. His kindness has created a
constant source of income for research
into the causation and cure of Cancer,
which is the object of the Campaign.
2. I am aware of the many duties and
responsibilities which you must have,
but I am wondering if you would care
to afford similar help. It would be
deeply valued by all connected with
the Campaign if you could see your
way clear to do so.
3. At the same time I wish to find
some public-spirited and influential per-
son who would enlist the aid of such
organizations as banks, business houses,
chambers of commerce, hospitals, schools
etc. which might lhe prepared to holp
in the same way. In Trinidad the
Manager of the Agricultur;al Bank did
so and I am glad to say that we are re-
ceiving 100% supper trinm everyone
approached. In the past. 1 have written
direct to business Ilous(s in the Colo-
nies'with considerable though scattered
success, but what has happened in Tri-
nidad has led me to valne the approach
from someone on the spot. Could you
help here ?
4. We like the stamps left on the
piper and( cut or torn from thle hur-
ronnding envelope--without danger to
t he perforations. H i h f:ac-value
stamllps from p;acels, air-mail oi regis-
tere I letters are not of particular value,
but even the lowest, and commonest
denominations are useful ind we do not
mind how many of a kind there are.
Great Britain stamps over 2/1d. face-
value are also welcome.
Your very truly,
W. J. ALPRESS,

STUDENTS PROCEEDING TO THE
UNITED KINGDOM FOR HIGHER
EDUCATION 1952-53 SESSION.
The pressure upon Universities and
Colleges in the United Kingdom shows
few signs as yet of relaxing and in the
Faculties of Medicine, Dentistry, Science
and Engineering the difficulty of ob-
taining places is still acute. Universi-
ties are, however, in general disposed
to look with a kindly eye on Colonial
candidates, provided that they can give
evidence of a high standard of potential
ability. The matriculation requirements
are considerably stiffer under the new
regulations.
2. Both Government scholars and
private students should show that they
have attempted to take advantage of
such local University facilities for
higher education as now exist, before
submitting applications for admission
to Universities in the United Kingdom.
3. Every effort will be made to secure
vacancies for properly sponsored and
really well qualified Colonial students.
Though in some cases, particularly in
Scotland, it may be possible to place
Students up to the end of March, 1952,
the main body of applications should be
in the hands of the Director of Colonial
Scholars not later than 31st January,
1952, if the fullest advantage is to be
taken of the places available.
In the following categories, however,
an earlier approach is essential and ap-
plications should reach the Director of
Colonial Scholars by 30th November,
1951, at the latest:-
(a) Courses in M-dicine, Dentistry,
Engineering and pure Science.
(b) Teachers'training courses (includ-
ing Physical Training, Domestic
Science and Frcebel or other
kindergarten training for which
the sponsorship of the Ministry
of Education is required.
(c) Applications for admission to Ox-
ford or Cambridge Colleges.
(d) Recommendations for awards un-
der the 1,000,000 Colonial De-
velopment and Welfare Scholar-
ship Scheme.
4. It is most undesirable that would-
be candidates for admission should
proceed to the United Kingdom unan-
nounced and unsponsored in the hope
of obtaining admission to Universities
and Colleges. Tutorial Colleges and
Polytechnics, as well as Universities,
are overburdened with long waiting
lists of non-priority candidates and it
is almost impossible to gain admission
to such institutions without due notice
in the proper form. Students are,
therefore, strongly warned against pro-
ceeding to the United Kingdom for
higher education until they are assured
that a place has been made available
for them.
5. It is particularly important that
students should complete their pre-
matriculation studies in their own coun-
try, unless for any reason this should
prove to be quite impossible, in which
case application should be made in the
normal way, and they should not arrive
without sponsorship and the guarantee
of a place in a suitable institution.
6. Full details of financial and other
arrangements are obtainable on applica-
tion at Government Office and all stu-
dents who intend to proceed to the
United Kingdom are strongly urged to
consult the Administration for advice
before making their arrangements.
