MEMORIAL LECTURESHIP. AN OXFORD INNOVATION. BRAINS OF THE EMPIRE. (By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 12.30 p.m.) LONDON.. June 1C At the annual Rhodes dinner at Oxford, Sir Otto Beit announced the foundation of an Oxford Rhodes memorial lectureship in connection with the New Rhodes house to be awarded the man or woman pre-eminently distinguished in public life, business, science, scholarship or letters, on condition that the recipient resides at Oxford for one term and delivers not fewer than two lectures. The main purpose is to bring to Oxford distinguished persons from other countries especially the new world so that their special learning or experience may be available to the university. It is expected the value of the lectureship will be about £500.—(A. and N.Z.)
