THE WINCHESTER READING PRIZES,

REGULATIONS adopted by Grace of the Senate,
Nov. 14, 1867.

1. THAT there shall be two yearly Prizes to be called the Winchester Reading Prizes.

2. That the Prizes shall be open for competition to every Student who has kept at least eight Terms and has passed (1) the Previous Examination and (2) either the Examination in the Additional Subjects for Candidates for Honours, or the General Examination for Ordinary Degrees, and has not completed more than fourteen Terms commencing with his first Term of residence.

3. That the net proceeds of the Fund (£40), after the Examiners have been paid, shall be divided between the successful Candidates, so that one of the Prizes shall consist of two-thirds and the other of one-third of such proceeds.

4. That the Examiners shall be at liberty to declare the successful Candidates equal, in which case each shall receive one-half the sum of the two Prizes.

5. That if either of the Prizes or both be not adjudged, the amount shall be added to the capital of the Fund.

6. That one Examiner shall be nominated by the Council in every year, to hold office for two years, and that his name shall be proposed to the Senate for election at an early Congregation in the Lent Term.

7. That whenever a vacancy may occur, a new Examiner shall be nominated and elected in a similar manner.

8. That the Examination for the Prizes shall begin in every year on the second Monday in the Easter Term.

9. That each Examiner shall receive £5 yearly out of the Income of the Fund.

10. That the names of the Candidates shall be sent by their respective Tutors to the Examiners at least one week before the beginning of the Examination.

11. That the Examination shall be confined to reading, in public, passages

a. In Classical English Prose and Poetry.

c. In a work or portion of a work of some standard English Divine, to be announced by the Examiners at the conclusion of the Examination of the preceding year.

12. That the Examiners shall be at liberty to institute a preliminary trial in all or any of the foregoing subjects, and to admit only such Candidates to the remainder of the Examination as shall have satisfied them in that trial.

13. That the Prizes shall be first given in the year 1868, and that two Examiners shall be elected in the Lent Term of that year, one of whom shall hold office for only one year.

14. That a Candidate who has once received a Prize shall not be allowed to compete a second time.

15. That the University shall have power from time to time, by Grace of the Senate, to vary and alter the foregoing Regulations as to the method of conducting the Examination and awarding the Prizes, and to make such new Rules as may be necessary for rendering the Prizes efficient in promoting Elocution or good Reading among the Students of the University;

Provided, however, in compliance with the wish of the Donor, that the reading of the Old and New Testament, the English Liturgy, and a work or portion of a work of some standard English Divine, under all circumstances, form part of the Examination.

UNIVERSITY AND COLLEGE PRIZES.

THE prizes for the encouragement of literature, free and open to competition for the whole University, amount to upwards of £1,500, three-fourths of which are given for Classics and English Composition.

The amount of the annual prizes in the different colleges is about £800, more than half of which are given for the encouragement of Classical Literature.

REGULATIONS RESPECTING UNIVERSITY PRIZES, CONFIRMED BY GRACE OF THE SENATE, March 23, 1855.

1. That a Prizeman, desiring to have Prize Books stamped with the Arms of the University, shall be required to submit to the Vice-Chancellor the proposed Books, with an account of the cost, within six months after the Prize is adjudged.

2. That the Sum allowed to be expended in Books (including the cost of binding) shall not exceed Fifteen Pounds.

3. That the Vice-Chancellor shall be authorized, if he approves of the Books submitted to him, to permit the arms of the University to be stamped thereon, with the Name and Year of the Prize, and the Name and College of the Prizeman; such permission to be recorded in a book to be kept for that purpose.

The Syndicate further recommend that the first and third of the foregoing Regulations shall apply to those Money Prizes which are now directed to be laid out in Books, provided that in no case the cost of the Books (including binding) exceed the amount of the Prize.
