The Faculty

PROFESSOR Elmer Harp Jr. of Anthropology began a 32-month project this summer which he hopes will further the development of an aerial photographic system for archaeological research and add to our knowledge of early cultures on the east shore of Hudson Bay.

He received a $65,000 National Science Foundation grant to search out archaeological evidence of prehistoric Indian and Eskimo cultures through aerial photographs. Such research has been hindered in the past by difficulties in traveling in these wild, almost inaccessible areas. Locating the sites of ancient villages and other evidences of early inhabitation was especially hard.

Professor Harp, working with Dr. Jack N. Rinker of the U. S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratories in Hanover who is collaborating on the photographic work, began photographing the 150-mile coastal region and off-shore island from aircraft this summer using color, infrared and camouflage-detection film. He plans to follow up with an eight-man field expedition next summer to check out the sites they might find from the aerial photography.

FACULTY Fellowships for the 1966-67 academic year have been awarded to five faculty members. The fellowships give the recipients a full year to do research or engage in other scholarly or creative activity. The fellowship winners and their plans are:

Edward M. Bradley, Assistant Professor of Classics, who will spend his year as an associate member of the American School of Classical Studies in Athens, Greece. He plans to participate in the school's archaeological expeditions and continue his studies of the epic poetry of an ancient Greek, Hesiod.

James M. Cox, Professor of English, who will travel to Europe to further his study and scholarly research on American autobiography.

Robert L. McGrath, Assistant Professor of Art, who will continue his research on illuminated manuscripts of the medieval period. He will travel to many points in Europe.

Darrel L. Mansell Jr., Assistant Professor of English, who will travel in England and the United States to study George Meredith's theory of fiction.

Jacob Neusner, Associate Professor of Religion, who will study Semitics at Harvard. He will also continue his writing of the History of the Jews in Babylonia.

DENISON University awarded an honorary degree to Prof. George R. Stibitz of the Medical School at June commencement exercises. The citation called him a "celebrated alumnus, able student of physics and mathematics, gifted inventor and engineer, nationally recognized pioneer in the science of applied mathematics," and went on to say:

"You have been appointed Professor of Physiology of the Dartmouth Medical School . . . (yet) you are not a physiologist, but an applied mathematician. Your appointment . . . therefore underlines the interdependence of all knowledge and skills, despite the growing specialization of our times."

PROF. Henry B. Williams had what must be a fairly unique experience this summer. He sat on a hill in Etna in July and listened to his own voice being broadcast from Japan.

He had heard from a Tokyo friend that a tape recording he had made during his three-month spring visit to study Japanese theater would be broadcast on the NHK network's short-wave program, Hello America, on July 30. Not everyone has a short-wave radio that will pick up Tokyo, but Professor Williams knew where to turn. He called on Prof. Millett Morgan of Thayer School and the Radiophysics Laboratory and wasn't disappointed. Given the correct time and the frequency, Professor Morgan had little trouble dialing the broadcast.

FRANK SMALLWOOD '51, Associate Professor of Government, was a featured speaker at the Canadian Federation of Mayors meeting in Vancouver, B. C., on "Regional Planning." While in Canada he also consulted with the Canadian Centennial Commission on a major international conference on metropolitan government that is planned there. .. . William Carter '20, Professor of Economics Emeritus, was guest editor of a special issue of The AntitrustBulletin, the journal of American and foreign antitrust and trade regulation. One of the other contributors in the special issue was Prof. Martin L. Lindahl . . . . Harry Scheiber, Associate Professor of History, has been named to the Board of Visitors of the new East Hill School in Chester, Vt. He recently addressed the board on "History in the Secondary School Curriculum." . . . Prof. William L. Baldwin of the Economics Department was on the faculty of the Economics Institute at the University of Colorado this summer. The Institute trains selected foreign students who have been elected for graduate work in the United States.

J. Blair Watson, Director of the Office of Instructional Services, has been appointed to another term on the board of directors of the University Film Producers Association. He also served as an evaluator of a federal film project undertaken by the association. And, for the fourth consecutive year, he has been appointed a juror at the American Film Festival. . . . James W. Fernandez, Associate Professor of Anthropology, is preparing an article for Collier's Encyclopedia on French-speaking West Africa. ... Professor S. Russell Stearns '37 of Thayer School has been named to the newly formed New Hampshire Transportation Commission.... Jacob Neusner of the Religion Department presented a paper, "In Quest of the Yohanan Zakkai," at the New England Regional meeting of the Rabbinical Assembly. The paper will be published in the Harvard Theological Review.

A plant species new to New England has been found and reported by members of the Biological Sciences Department. The plant, Lactuca muralis, previously unknown in this area, was found by Prof. Andrew P. Nelson and identified by Prof. James P. Poole, Curator of the Jesup Herbarium.
