B03 · paragraph / latin
Dr. M. H. Shulman,
70 Marshall Street,
Brookline, 46 Massachusetts,
U. S. A.

B04 · paragraph / latin
Dear Dr. Shulman,
Many thanks for your letter of 11th October 1960, regarding Fred
Chitayat. I am glad to hear from you about his work and progress at the M.I.T.

B05 · paragraph / latin
This year, I am able to nominate three students of the graduating
class of Shamash Secondary School for studying in Universities in the U.S.A.
They are:

B06 · table / latin
1. | Sammy Gourgi Shina
2. | Rony-Reuben Victor Elia-Shaoul
3. | Jack Salem Shamoun

B07 · paragraph / latin
I have already arranged for these three boys to sit in March 1961,
the Scholastic Aptitude Test and the Achievement Tests, given by the College
Entrance Examination Board of Princeton, New Jersey. I am also arranging for
them to apply from now for admission, for the session of September 1961, to
different Universities in the U.S.A., including the M.I.T., Columbia Univer-
sity, New York University and others.

B08 · paragraph / latin
However, two of the above candidates, namely, Sammy Gourgi Shina
and Jack Salem Shamoun, can afford, as far as I am aware to study on their
own and to pay all expenses necessary for their College Education in the
U.S.A. The second candidate, namely, Rony-Reuben Victor Elia-Shaoul,
cannot possibly pay the full expenses and will therefore be seeking financial
aid through your group. Personally, I believe that this boy will make a success-
ful student in any university in the U.S.A., no matter how high of standing the
university might be, and I therefore recommend him as a suitable candidate. I
hope that it will be possible for you to secure for this boy the financial aid
necessary for his higher education in the U.S.A. for a period of at least four
years.

B09 · paragraph / latin
Rony's parents are understood to be able to pay for his travelling
expenses to the U.S.A. in case he will be favourably considered for a Scholar-
ship award. In addition they will undertake to contribute a maximum of one
thousand Dollars yearly towards his college expenses over the next four years.

B10 · paragraph / latin
I am enclosing, herewith, a letter of reference and recommendation
with transcripts of Rony's secondary School records. I hope to hear from you
soon on the subject of a scholarship award for this boy, in order to help him
secure, in due time, the necessary admission to a university in the U.S.A. for
the academic year commencing September 1961.

B11 · paragraph / latin
With my best wishes to you and to your family for a very happy and
a prosperous New Year.

B12 · signature / latin
Sincerely yours,
A.S. OBADIAH,
Supervising Principal.

3. Brevet Elementaire Examination in French, Literary Section, conducted by the French Embassy, Baghdad in May 1959, ranking 5th among 17 candidates from Frank Iny School.
4. Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination for Intermediate Education, in June 1959 ranking 1st among 32 candidates from Frank Iny School.
5. London University General Certificate of Education Examination in the following subjects:

| Grade obtained | Subject | Level | Date |

| 4 | English Language | Ordinary | June 1960 |
| 2 | Pure Mathematics | Ordinary | June 1960 |
| 5 | Physics | Ordinary | June 1960 |
| 4 | Chemistry | Ordinary | June 1960 |

In addition to the above, Mr. Rony-Reuben Victor Elia Shaoul will be sitting in January 1961 for the London University G.C.E. Examinations in French Language at the ordinary level, and in June 1961 in Pure Mathematics at the advanced level.
Prior to his joining Frank Iny Intermediate School in October 1956, the above candidate did six years of Primary Schooling at Menahem Daniel Primary School which is known to be one of the good schools in Baghdad.
While in Frank Iny School and Shamash Secondary School, both of which are under my administration, the above candidate distinguished himself as a brilliant student of very good character. On more than one occasion during the different stages of his studies in these two Schools, he won School prizes for excellence in his academic work.
At present Mr. Rony-Reuben Victor Elia Shaoul is attending the Fifth Form of Shamash Secondary School, and is doing extremely well. In June 1961 he will be sitting the Iraq State Baccalaureate Examination for Secondary Education, Scientific Section. To judge by his Secondary School record, he should be able to pass this examination with distinction in due course. He will then be eligible for entry into any higher institute of University standard in Iraq.
Mr. Rony-Reuben Victor Elia Shaoul is physically and mentally quite fit. I recommend him for admission to any University abroad as an excellent candidate.

[Marginalia] * Note: Highest grade in both ordinary and advanced levels is 1; lowest passing grade in each level is 6; Grades 7 & 8 in the advanced level are considered a pass at the ordinary level.

ADVISOR'S INFORMAL COMMENT ON: Sammy Gourgy Shina
(STUDENT'S NAME):

B03 · paragraph / latin
Mr. Shina seems to have
successfully adjusted himself to his
surroundings at M.I.T. He appears
to be a hard worker and a capable
boy. He does, though, seem to place
more than the normal emphasis on
grades. We hope to inspire him to
see learning as its own end and to
select courses from
this broader
viewpoint.
