Mr. Nelson, who joined the faculty in 1967, was graduated from Yale in 1960, after serving two years in the Army. He taught at the Berkshire School until 1964 when he began graduate work at Princeton. He received his M.A. degree in 1966, and is completing requirements for a Ph.D. degree.

P ROF. Harry N. Scheiber of the History Department was elected chair- man of the New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union. ... Edmund D. Meyers. Assistant Professor of Sociology, directed an eight-week summer course at the Kiewit Computation Center entitled "Cooperative Effort in Time-Sharing Applications in the Social Sciences" attended by faculty members from ten New England Colleges. ... John W. Sommer Jr. '60, Assistant Professor of Geography, on a National Science Foundation grant attended a summer institute at Ohio State University which examined spatial stochastic processes, two-dimensional statistical series and network and flow analysis.

JOHN A. RAND '38, Executive Director of the Outing Club, presented a paper on campground safety at the Conference on Camping Areas, at Springfield College and another on winter sports accident prevention in Boston at the national convention of the Safety Education Section of the American Association of Health, Physical Education and Welfare. He also appeared before the executive committee of the New England Trail Conference, meeting at Amherst College, to review implementation of the National Trails System Act, passed in Congress last year. Earlier he discussed impact of the Act in New Hampshire with state officials in Concord.

Mr. Rand was appointed to the executive committee of the Public Safety Conference of the National Safety Council. The Conference, composed of 100 key persons, meets annually in Chicago to promote accident prevention. He has been a member of its Winter Sports Safety Committee for two years.

JONATHAN MIRSKY, Assistant Professor of Chinese, in company with five other American pacifists this summer tried unsuccessfully to sail into mainland China on a private "peace mission" aboard the 50-foot yacht Phoenix. The trip provided the first contact between Americans and Chinese officials in 20 years, excluding diplomatic talks in Warsaw. Though thwarted, Professor Mirsky and his party hope to try again next year, again at their own expense.

On his return he reported that the Chinese officials who refused the group entrance showed the same "blindness and stubbornness" demonstrated by American diplomats they met in Hong Kong. In marked contrast to officialdom, sailors on the patrol boats were friendly and curious, despite the fact that they were "about the age of Dartmouth boys" and had been reared amid Communist anti-American propaganda. They were so eager to talk with the Americans that the officers had to discipline some of them.

Even though the Chinese called the crew of the Phoenix "illegal intruders," "bandits," and "imperialists," Professor Mirsky stressed that they neither arrested them nor forced them to leave. One patrol boat even made the Americans a gift of a drum of engine oil when they ran low. Five days of waiting and three more contacts with Chinese officials brought repeated refusals to enter the mainland. Finally, the American pacifists set sail for Nagasaki, somewhat disappointed but determined to return.

PROF. Richard Eberhart '26 of the English Department was awarded his third honorary degree when the College of Wooster bestowed a Doctor of Humane Letters degree on him at its commencement exercises. His other honorary degrees are from Dartmouth (1954) and Skidmore (1966). Oxford University Press is publishing Professor Eberhart's literary biography, written by Joel Roache, and a critical study of his poetry by Bernard Engel will be published in the Twayne Series.

PROF. Meredith O. Clement of the Economics Department directed a three-day conference on campus last spring on "Poverty in New Hampshire: Cause, Consequence and Change." It provided the first forum for recipients and administrators of the state's antipoverty programs to exchange ideas and experiences.

Highlights, in addition to daily workshops, were a film on poverty, produced by the New Hampshire Educational Television Network, followed by a panel discussion by three anti-poverty program administrators and three lowincome residents, and a speech by Richard W. Boone, senior vice-president of the Center for Community Change, Washington, D. C., who, as assistant to Sargent Shriver, was one of the original staff members of the Office of Economic Opportunity.

PROF. Frank Smallwood '51 has been appointed vice-chairman of the subcommittee on education of the Vermont State Committee on Administrative Coordination.

The Committee was created by Gov. Deane C. Davis to study the organizational structure of the executive branch of state government. The education subcommittee will examine all aspects of publicly supported education to provide for a more comprehensive and coordinated administration of the state's educational programs.
