BAGHDAD
IRAQ
25th December, 1953.
The Principal,
⟦Shamash and⟧ Frank 'Int' School,
Baghdad.
Sir,
Further to our verbal conversation, held in your office on the 22nd instant, I beg to offer myself as a candidate for an H.E. David Fund scholarship to pursue my studies in the United Kingdom, and give below the details asked for in the relevant Notification published on the School's notice-board.
I am 21, being born in 1932.
At 16, in 1948, after spending four years at Shamash Secondary School, I passed the London University Matriculation Examination (for June), at which I was the only examinee from Baghdad who obtained a First Division pass. The subjects I offered were:- English, Elementary Mathematics, French, Chemistry, and Electricity and Magnetism.
I passed the Government Secondary School Examination (Science Section) in 1949, obtaining an average of 84%.
In January, 1950, I passed a Supplementary Matriculation Examination in a further four subjects: Classical Arabic, Mechanics and Hydrostatics, Mathematics (More Advanced), and Geometrical and Mechanical Drawing.
In July, 1951, I passed the Intermediate Arts Examination in the following subjects and with the following results:-
Classical Arabic | A
French | A
Pure Mathematics | B
My original intention, after passing the Intermediate, was to proceed to the final B.A. (General) Examination in the same subjects. After due deliberation, however, I found that such a choice of subjects would be definitely out of joint, since it is obvious that Pure Mathematics does not harmonize with French and Classical Arabic. For the sake of a better synthesis, therefore, I decided to jettison the Mathematics subject and instead to prepare for History of Philosophy, a subject which has no

Page 855

counterpart at the Intermediate. And, as a matter of fact, I am now
half-way through my correspondence studies for the final B.A.(Gen.),
which I was intending to sit in June, 1955, offering Classical Arabic,
French, and History of Philosophy..
It would therefore appear that, should I be accorded a scholarship
to resume my studies in the United Kingdom as from next October, I should
be able (subject, of course, to the approval of the University authorities)
to sit my final B.A.(Gen.) Examination in one academic year, i.e. in
June, 1955, as originally planned; after which, I should be eligible to
proceed to higher degrees in either French or Philosophy.
Should the University authorities refuse to grant me such a
permission, a more time-saving alternative would be to proceed directly
to the B.A. Honours degree in either French or Philosophy, which would
take 2 or 3 years; after which, I should wish to go in for the M.A. and
Ph.D. degrees in the same subject, which would mean an additional 2 years.
I have discussed the above proposals with Mr Pearson, of the
British Council, Baghdad, who agreed that they are feasible and in conformity
with the standing regulations of the University of London. He considers
that the University authorities may well be prepared to approve my sitting
the B.A.(Gen.) in one year, after giving me a test, but that it would be
unavailing to take up this question now. At any rate, this is by no means
a ticklish problem, since, as stated above, I always have the alternative
of proceeding directly to an Honours degree.
For the last five years I have been working in the Engineering
Department of the Khanaqin Oil Company, Limited, Baghdad. My present
designation is In-Charge Progress and Planning; ability at self-expression
in English forms the staple part of this appointment, and for the last five
years I have been working away at improving and perfecting my knowledge of
this language. I need hardly point out that, through my daily contact with
many Britishers during this long period, I have acquired an excellent "feel"
for both the spoken and the written language. I have a genuine interest in
linguistic studies, and should like to mention that, apart from the above
examinations, I completed in January, 1952, an advanced correspondence
course in Effective English fom the Regent Institute, London.
You will no doubt appreciate that my main aim in applying for this
scholarship is to get a chance for pursuing my studies to degrees higher than
the B.A., as it is clear that I can easily obtain the B.A. degree here, on
my own, without involving myself in so many difficulties. Therefore, in
case I am granted a scholarship, I consider it imperative to lay down the
proviso that I should be given a written promise to the effect that, if I
did satisfactory and promising work up to the B.A. Honours, my studies would
be financed for a further 2 or more years up to the Ph. D. degree. I hope that
you will have no objection to this, since, in all probability, the whole
scheme would be completed within four years.

Greetings and Respect,
With reference to your advertisement regarding the student scholarship on the account of the endowment of the late H. S. David, I hope
to be allowed to submit this application of mine to join the aforementioned scholarship.
The following is the information required as stated in your advertisement:
- 1 I am Louise, daughter of Israel Hay.
- 2 My place of residence is house number 25 K 9 located in Kurd al-Pasha, and the telephone number is 91605.

1951. I was first in my school and obtained a total score of 458 out of 600. During that same
year, I also passed the French Brevet exam. In 1952, I sat for
the G.C.E. examination for the University of London and passed it, taking exams in six subjects:
Arabic and French at the Advanced Level, and English, Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry at the
Ordinary Level. This is more than what is required for a student's admission to any university in England.
In the summer of 1953, I passed the preparatory baccalaureate exam and succeeded in it, obtaining a total score of
(605) out of 700, and I was first at the Shamash School as well as first among all preparatory schools for girls
in Iraq.
- 8 Since my graduation, I have taken the initiative to learn typing and the principles of bookkeeping in English.
- 9 My academic inclination is towards science and mathematics, specifically chemistry, in which I wish to complete
my studies; or in medicine if that were available to me.
- 10 Attached are two copies of my photograph with my full name written on them.
I am ready to fulfill the second condition of your advertisement, which is service in the community's institutions for a period equal to
the duration of my studies abroad. I add here that I find in myself a strong inclination and talent for teaching.
I have firm hope that this request of mine will receive the necessary sympathy from those in charge.
Please accept my utmost respect, and may you remain.
