W6KG fund to be established

When Lloyd Colvin, W6KG, died last December, the League became the
beneficiary of the proceeds of a life insurance policy.  The
proceeds, more than 150,000, dollar(s) will now fund an endowment, the income
from which will be used to further the strengthening of
international friendship through DXing.

ARRL Executive Vice President David Sumner, K1ZZ, said ''During his
lifetime, W6KG made great personal contributions to international
friendship through Amateur Radio in his visits to more than 150
countries, with his wife Iris Colvin, W6QL.  Through the Colvin
Award, the League will proudly continue those contributions.''

Announcement of the Colvin Fund was made at the International DX
Convention in Visalia, California, on April 16. Details of the
administration of the endowment have not yet been worked out.
