TUCK SCHOOL FACULTY ADDITIONS

Announcement has just been made by Dartmouth College of three new appointments to the instruction corps for the coming year: Mr. Harry Richmond Wellman, Dartmouth 1907, now vice-president of Walter M. Lowney Company, to be Professor of Commercial Organization and Management (this chair will have to do principally with commercial organization as related to the principles and practices of marketing); Mr. Nathaniel G. Burleigh, Dartmouth 1911, to the professorship of Industrial Organization and Management; and Mr. Gilbert H. Tapley, Dartmouth 1916, to be Secretary of the Tuck School and Instructor in Statistics.

Mr. Wellman comes to the school from his position as vice-president of the Walter M. Lowney Company. After graduating from College, where he was active in all undergraduate activities, he became secretary to the Retail Trade Board of the Boston Chamber of Commerce in 1909. In 1911 he was appointed assistant' secretary to the Chamber of Commerce in Boston; in 1912 he was assistant to the Board of Port Directors; and later spent a year in charge of the men's advertising for William Filene's Sons Company. In 1913 he became advertising manager for the Walter M. Lowney Company, in which he has been successively sales and advertising manager and vice-president in charge of distribution. He is a member of the Board of Governors and chairman of Entertainment Committee of the Boston City Club. During the war he was a graduate of the officers' Training School, Camp Meigs, Washington; and was later appointed Supervisor of Development Battalions and assigned to various camps for direction of this work.

Mr. Burleigh comes to his new position in the College from a position as assistant director of the department of industrial engineering in the Winchester Repeating Arms Company, where he has been in contact with and responsible for many of the policies having to do with industrial organization and management in different departments of this great plant. During his undergraduate course Mr. Burleigh was an honor man in scholarship and graduated magna cum laude. Immediately after graduating he served for four years as an operating official on the Boston Elevated Railway Company, since which time he has been connected with the Winchester Repeating Arms Company at New Haven, Conn.

Mr. Tapley, who has just returned from France, where he held the rank of first lieutenant in Ordnance, graduated in the first honor group at Dartmouth in 1916 with magna cum laude standing. When the war broke out he immediately took the first Ordnance Supply School course, and was inducted into the Ordnance Department in November, 1917. He was stationed successively at Washington, at Raritan Ordnance Depot, and then, in October, 1918, was assigned to the Expeditionary Force in France, where he has been since that time.
