PEGGY CORNELL BENLINE SCHOLARSHIP

The Municipal Engineers of New York will award two $750 Scholarships to engineering or architectural students. This program is financed by a generous grant by the late Capt. Arthur J.

He was a former Commissioner of Buildings, Commissioner of Air Pollution Control, and was an honorary member and former president of the Municipal Engineers in 1968.
