Honorable President in Japan

WHILE in Japan last spring as head of the American delegation attending the second of the "home and home" Dartmouth Conferences on Japanese-American Relations, President Dickey demonstrated his skill not only as chairman but also as photographer. The two large reproductions on this page are from his collection of photographs and color slides.

The two conferences, the first held at Dartmouth in October 1962 and the second in Kurashiki in late March and early April last year, were sponsored jointly by the College and International House of Japan, and were supported by The Ford Foundation. Both meetings brought together private citizens of Japan and the United States who are prominent in academic, cultural, and business life for frank discussion of issues of concern to both nations.

During his visit President Dickey made arrangements for several of the events in Dartmouth's current program on classical and contemporary Japan.
