Remington Kellogg, Assistant Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution and Director of the United States National Museum, retired and assumed the status of honorary research associate of the Smithsonian. During Dr. Kellogg’s service as Director from 1948, the National Museum experienced a remarkable growth. The collections grew from 25 million specimens in 1948 to 56 million in 1962. A renovation of exhibits programs revitalized more than 20 exhibition halls in the National Museum. A wing was added to the natural history building and a new Museum of History ana Technology was built. Dr. Kellogg directed the programs that produced these results and participated strongly in executing them. Prior to becoming Director of the National Museum, Dr. Kelloge had served in the division of mammals, beginning in 1928 as assistant curator and becoming curator of the division in 1941. His mam scientific interest has been and continues to be the biology and paleontology of whales. <<>> Annual Report of the Director United States National Museum <<>> The first completed space in the Museum of History and Technology was turned over to the curatorial staff on May 19, 1963. <<>> Buildings During the year, the Administrator and the Commissioner of the Public Buildings Services, General Services Administration, have given their attention very generously to the construction of the New Museum of History and Technology, to renovation of the Museum of Natural History and the addition of wings to that building, and to other Smithsonian construction projects. Many other officials at both the central and the regional offices of the General Services Administration have been most helpful with advice and counsel. Mr. John E. Cudd, liaison architect, devoted his entire time to the Museum of History and Technology during the year and his expert judgment has been most appreciated. Mr. Thomas A. Reneau, construction management engineer, has continued to provide advice and information on the progress of the work. Museum of History and Technology The construction of the Museum of History and Technology building was reported by the General Services Administration June 22, 1963 to be 98 percent complete. The Board of Regents at their meeting of May 15, 1963, approved partial occupancy of the building for the purpose of installing exhibits in spaces accepted from the Contractor by the General Services Administration and offered to the Smithsonian as complete. On May 19, 1963, Smithsonian personnel were able to begin placing collections and exhibits in limited areas of the building. ‘These spaces are being occupied according to the plan based upon the contractor’s determination, made at the start of construction, of the order in which parts of the building would be completed. Details of the progress of construction are contained in the report of the Jomt Congressional Committee on Construction of a Building for a Museum of History and Technology for the Smithsonian Institution (Senate Doc. No. 40, 88th Cong., 1st Sess., Oct. 22, 1963). This report is here reprinted as an appendix (see p. 203). <<>> Museum of Natural History During the year the new east wing of the natural history building was completed and the department of geology and the divisions of birds and mollusks moved into their new quarters. For the first time in many years these units now have adequate workrooms and laboratories. The space provided for the systematic reference collections will permit these materials to be arranged to serve efficiently the hundreds of scientists who find them indispensable to their essential researches. The part of the renovation of the existing building that is included in the construction of the east wing has provided air conditioning of the reference storage areas and the exhibit halls. This air conditioning is necessary for the preservation of the collections. Visiting the Museum is now much more pleasant for the hundreds of thousands of summer visitors who, as a result, are induced to stay longer and absorb more of the instruction and inspiration the exhibits provide. At the close of the year, the contract for the construction of the west wing and the remaining renovation of the old building had not been awarded. Funds Allotted From the funds appropriated by the Congress to carry on the operations of the Smithsonian Institution and its bureaus during the fiscal year 1963, the sum of $4,846,000 was obligated by the United States National Museum for the preservation, increase and study of the national collections of anthropological, zoological, botanical, and geological materials, as well as materials illustrative of engineering, technology, industry, graphic arts, and history. (This amount includes sums expended for the program of exhibits modernization. ) East wing of Museum of Natural History was occupied starting August 16, 1962. Top: south front, from Madison Drive and the Mall. Middle: east and north fronts, from corner of 9th Street and Constitution Avenue. Bottom: south (Mall) front of Museum from the air, showing east wing, with Department of Justice and Archives buildings in the background, across Constitution Avenue. <<>> <<>> Exhibits Especially noteworthy accomplishments in the exhibits program during the year were the reopening of three large halls of modernized exhibits in the Museum of Natural History, and the beginning of installation of exhibits in the new Museum of History and Technology. With the opening of the second hall of North American archeology, the hall of marine life, and the hall of dinosaurs and fossil reptiles, all but three of the galleries on the first floor of the Museum of Natural History have been modernized, as have the majority of the halls in the east half of the second floor. Following his appointment to the directorship of the Museum of Natural History, Dr. T. Dale Stewart assumed the chairmanship of the committee coordinating and supervising the modernization of exhibits in natural history. Assistant director Richard S. Cowan has assumed responsibility for integrating the efforts of the curators and exhibits office personnel participating in the preparation of natural history exhibits. John H. Morrissey, project review chief, architectural branch of the Public Buildings Service, General Services Administration, and Pasquelle Battestelli, Julius J. Dickinson, and Joseph S. Cromwell, Jr., design architects of that agency, contributed substantially to the design of the renovated exhibition halls. Exhibits chief John E. Anglim continued in charge of the planning and preparation of all exhibits and directly supervised the operation of the exhibits laboratory in the Natural History building. In June 1963 Gilbert Wright joined the staff of that laboratory to assist in its supervision. Julius Tretick supervised the production and installation of natural history exhibits. In late May and June 1963 the installation of exhibits in four halls of the new Museum of History and Technology was initiated. Exhibits units were prepared for 15 of the halls in the new museum during the year. ‘Two other halls were in the exhibits design stage of their development. Assistant director John C. Ewers continued to coordinate the work of the curators and the exhibits staff in the exhibits program for the Museum of History and Technology, and Benjamin W. Lawless continued to supervise the design and production of exhibits for this museum as well as the preparation of additional displays for the Air and Space building. He was assisted by Bela S. Bory in production, Robert Klinger in the model shop, and Robert Widder in design. Carroll Lusk entered on duty as exhibits lighting specialist in January. ‘The editing of the curators’ drafts of exhibits scripts was continued by George Weiner, with the assistance of Constance Minkin and Edna Wright. <<>> EXHIBITS a Anthropology Modernization of exhibits continued to absorb a major share of the efforts of curators in all divisions throughout the year. On November 16, 1962, the second hall of North American archeology was reopened to the public, presenting 38 modernized displays. An introductory section of six units explains the objectives and dating methods of systematic archeology. Four exhibits show characteristic weapon points and other artifacts of the Folsom, Agate Basin, and other big game hunters of 7,000 to 10,000 years ago. ‘The remainder of the hall presents regional displays of the cultures of Southeastern, Middle Atlantic, and Northeastern United States, and those of the Great Plains. Within each region, cultural variations through time : 4 i i i Entrance to second renovated hall of North American archeology in the Museum of Natural History, opened to the public in November 1962. are revealed in representative artifacts and art work. Among these exhibits are outstanding prehistoric textiles, engraved conch shells, and other objects from Spiro Mound, Okla.; embossed copper plates, monolithic axes, effigy pottery, and sculpture from the Southeast; prehistoric wood carvings from Florida; and ancient copper objects from the upper Great Lakes. Some maps and charts, and a reconstructed burial complex from Spiro Mound remain to be installed. Curator Waldo R. Wedel prepared the scripts and selected the specimens for this hall, with the expert assistance of Dr. C. G. Holland for the Virginia-Maryland section and Dr. W. A. Ritchie for the Northeastern United States section. Ray Hays and Mrs. Barbara Craig were responsible for the design of the exhibits. <<>> Contract construction was completed for the fourth and last of the ethnological halls in the modernization program. Adjoining the recently opened hall of Pacific and Southeast Asian peoples, it will be devoted to exhibits on Africa, the Near East, and eastern Asia. Associate curator Gordon D. Gibson prepared 12 exhibit scripts and obtained materials for several more units in the African section of this North American archeology: Indians of the Potomac Valley lived in stockaded villages when John Smith visited Patawomeke in 1608. hall. Associate curator Eugene I. Knez completed six scripts for exhibits on contemporary life for the Asian section. During his field trip early in 1963 curator Saul Riesenberg obtained for the hall of Pacific and Asian peoples photographs and other data needed to complete a diorama on Pan Kedira, a megalithic structure on an artificial islet near Ponape. Associate curator William H. Crocker has collaborated with Mrs. Sophy Burnham of the Smithsonian Museum Service in preparing three new Audioguide tapes for the alcoves of South American ethnology. Associate curator Gus Van Beek and exhibits designer R. O. Hower completed plans for the layout of the new hall of Old World archeology. This will present in 59 exhibits a synopsis of Old World cultural history from earliest times to the end of the Roman era. Renovation of some of the more important casts of Near Eastern monuments was begun, including experiments to determine the feasibility of reproducing the casts in more durable and lighter plastics. <<>> While he was still head curator of the department, Dr. 'T. D. Stewart, with the assistance of exhibits designer Joseph Shannon, completed the plan for the new hall of physical anthropology. During the year Dr. Stewart prepared detailed scripts for 14 exhibits, and Dr. Angel completed the specifications for a large map of peoples of the world. Contract renovation of the hall was begun March 30. Zoology The curators of all divisions (with the exception of insects) were engaged in the planning and development of modernized exhibition halls during the year. The hall of lfe in the sea was officially opened to the public on February 18, 1963. Secretary Carmichael presented Dr. Remington Kellogg, recently retired assistant secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, who spoke about the dominant figure in the hall—a life-sized model of a blue whale prepared under his direction. A motion picture documenting the construction of this impressive exhibit also was shown at the opening ceremonies. Among the mammals displayed in the initial installation in this hall (which includes both permanent and temporary displays) are a sea otter and models of six different kinds of porpoises. A mural presents the silhouettes of five other species of whale on the wall below the blue whale. Fishes exhibited include the white mako, and big-eyed thresher shark, Pacific sailfish, and bluefin tuna. >> <<>> being designed. The eight cases on the balcony, designed to contain shore habitat groups and individual large animals, have been temporarily assigned to the U.S. Navy Oceanographic Office for an exhibit of oceanographic techniques and oceanography as a profession. Contract construction in the hall of comparative osteology was virtually completed at year’s end. Curator of mammals David H. Johnson is supervising the planning of the exhibits for this hall. Most of the bird and small mammal skeletons to be exhibited have been cleaned and restored by Leonard A. Blush of the taxidermy staff, and detailed plans for these displays are in preparation. Also nearing completion is the contract construction for the hall of cold-blooded vertebrates, which is being developed under the direction of curator of fishes Leonard P. Schultz. Scripts for more than one-half of the units were prepared. Several fish casts were repaired. A cast of a near record size 12-foot white sturgeon was made by Mr. John Widener for the “ancestral” fishes case. This sturgeon, from the Frazer River of British Columbia, was obtained through the cooperation of Dr. Murray A. Newman, curator of the Vancouver Public Aquarium. At year’s end all curators in the department were engaged in planning and developing a temporary exhibition, “Zoology in the Smithsonian Institution,” honoring the XVI International Congress of Zoology, to be held in Washington, D.C., during August 1963. Botany Asa basis for detailed planning of exhibits in the hall of plant life, a detailed statement of the purpose and scale of each unit was drawn up, specifications for models in the rain-forest group were prepared, and some of the models were made. Early m 1963 a field party spent five weeks in the distinctive desert of Baja California, Mexico, collecting data and materials for the Various stages of construction of the blue whale, feature exhibit in the new hall of life in the sea. An inner framework (above, left) was constructed over steel beams tied into the building. A light framework of wood provided the body contours. The head section was completed separately, then mounted on the rest of the body, and after the outer fiberglass covering had been applied, the inner wooden framework was removed to decrease weight. The final mottling of the whale’s underside (below, left), was painted over the individually fashioned ventral grooves, <<>> In its completed form the whale stretches 94 feet and weighs approximately 8,000 pounds. On the wall behind the whale are models and outlines of other large sea animals. Beneath the balcony are temporary exhibits describing the process of designing and producing the hall. construction of a desert life group. Dr. R. S. Cowan, assistant director of the Museum of Natural History, led the party and served as technical adviser and photographer. Paul Marchand was responsible for the preparation of models and other exhibit items, and sculptor Vernon R. Rickman assisted in making molds and models. Samples of many plants, rocks and desert sand were collected and several hundred kodachrome transparencies taken. The facilities of the Vermilion Sea Field Station at Bahia de Los Angeles, provided by the San Diego Natural History Museum, aided the field party’s work in many Ways. Geology The large, modernized hall of reptiles was opened to the public on June 25, 1963. The central figure in this hall is the giant sauropod Diplodocus, which in life was 80 feet long and weighed about 25 tons <<>> The dominance of the dinosaurs in the terrestrial fauna of the age of reptiles is illustrated by displays representing all major groups of dinosaurs, in which the examples range in size from one whose arm bone was 6 feet long to a tiny beast with a thigh bone smaller than that of a chicken. A number of these specimens are unique, such as the skeleton of Thescelosaurus—a small, agile, piant-eating dinosaur that lived near the end of the age of reptiles. Special exhibits show methods of classifying the dinosaurs and the various ways in which they adapted to their environment. The dinosaurs in this museum are of historic as well as scientific interest. Many of the specimens were collected during the early United States Geological Survey explorations associated with the opening of the West between 1870 and 1895. Later acquisitions were made by Smithsonian expeditions, and through gifts and exchanges. ‘The material is well known to paleontologists the world over. Reptiles that include the ancestry of mammals also are displayed in this hall. These animals apparently were never abundant in the United States, and the exhibited fossils were collected recently in South Africa by an expedition sponsored jointly by the Smithsonian Institution, National Science Foundation, and the Bernard Price In- <<>> stitute for Palaeontological Research, Johannesburg. The displays of fossil reptiles are related to exhibits of fossil invertebrates, fishes, and mammals in adjoining halls, so that the visitor to the museum can follow the history of life from its earliest traces almost to the present through an integrated series of galleries. Associate curator Nicholas Hotton III planned the exhibits for the renovated hall with the assistance of exhibits designers Ann Karras and Barbara Craig. The division of vertebrate paleontology cleaned, repaired and reinstalled about 17 skeletons of dinosaurs and other reptiles formerly exhibited in this hall, and remounted or otherwise modified 8 other previously displayed specimens. Completely new exhibits of 14 skulls and skeletons required all stages of preparation in the laboratory as they arrived from the field. Jay H. Matternes and Norman N. Deaton began the preparation of four dioramas for exhibition on the balcony of the hall. With animal figures at a scale of one inch to a foot, these will depict land vertebrates of the Upper Triassic, Upper Jurassic, and Upper Cretaceous, and sea vertebrates of the Upper Cretaceous. Artist Jay H. Matternes completed for the age of mammals hall a third mural painting. It depicts terrestrial life during the Oligocene in North America. Specifications were prepared for the fourth mural, which will represent an animal assemblage of the Pliocene epoch. Considerable time was devoted to planning and design studies for the layout of exhibits for the hall of physical geology. This exhibit will depict the results of the constructive and destructive processes of nature which alter the earth’s surface. No major changes were made in the exhibits of minerals and meteorites during the year. The staff of the division of invertebrate paleontology and paleobotany were largely concerned with preparation of a display for the XVI International Zoological Congress, in cooperation with paleontologists of the U.S. Geological Survey. These exhibits emphasize some of the general principles employed and developed by staff members in their current research programs. Participating U.S. Geological Survey members include William A. Oliver, Jr., Allison R. Palmer, William J. Sando, Normal F. Sohl, and Dwight W. Taylor. Science and Technology Hight new exhibits destined for display in the halls of medicine, dentistry, and pharmacy in the new museum were temporarily installed in the gallery of medical sciences in the arts and industries building. They included units on the development of the microscope, medical and dental equipment, and displays of crude drugs. A <<>> Installation of locomotive Pioneer in railroad hall of new Museum of History and Technology. diorama portraying the performance of an operation in the amphitheatre of the Pennsylvania Hospital about the year 1805 was prepared. Dr. Alfred R. Henderson, consultant, specified exhibits which will recreate a corner of a ward in the Massachusetts General Hospital as it appeared in 1875 and the dental office of Dr. Edward H. Angle in Illinois during the period 1912-1920, as well as units on the development of surgery and of resuscitation equipment and techniques. Associate curator Sami K. Hamarneh, under whose scientific direction the three halls of medical sciences are being developed, completed plans for the display of an enlarged model of the human ear donated by the Lempert Institute of Otology. The great majority of the units for these halls have now been designed and produced. Exhibits for the hall of tools, planned by curator Silvio A. Bedini in cooperation with exhibits designer Harry Hart, were nearing completion in the exhibits laboratory at year’s end. Recently prepared units interpreted the subject of gear-cutting and tape control of machine tools. Being designed were displays of the hand tools of the blacksmith, cooper, wheelwright, pump-log maker, and woodworking trades. In mid-June 1963, artist R. McGill Mackall of Baltimore installed the first unit in the new hall of tools—a large background illustration showing skilled workmen fabricating marine propellers <<>> in a large machine shop. The mid-19th century machine shop has been moved from its preparation site at Suitland to the new building and will be erected in early summer. During the year exhibits were prepared for the phonographs and the locks sections of the hall of light machinery, and additional units were completed for the timekeeping section. A series of escapement models, and three dials for the centrally located clock tower—a feature exhibit of this hall—were in production. At year’s end George Watson was installing the first exhibit in the hght machinery hall—a mid19th-century chronometer-maker’s shop. Associate curator Edwin A. Battison and exhibits designer Barbara Bowes have cooperated in the planning and design of exhibits for this hall. Under the direction of associate curator Robert M. Vogel, assisted by exhibits designers John Brown and Harry Hart, the development of the halls of civil engineering and heavy machinery progressed. With the completion of a series of wooden arches illustrating the American, Austrian and English systems of tunnel timbering, the production of exhibits for the civil engineering hall neared completion. Especially for this hall the Bethlehem Steel Co. fabricated a 10-foot diameter ring of cast iron segments such as are used for the lining of tunnels through soft ground. Mr. Vogel submitted detailed scripts for the internal combustion and steam engine, steam boiler, and hydraulic power sections of the hall of heavy machinery. Production of exhibits for this hall began in June 1963. Head curator Robert P. Multhauf, assisted by exhibits designer Ronald Elbert, continued to plan the exhibits for the hall of physics and astronomy. Fourteen units were produced, most of which will appear in the applied physics section of the hall. Dr. Multhauf also began the specification of units for the section of this hall which will be devoted to mathematics and computers. In December 1962 the division of physical sciences offered a special exhibition “Thirty-five Years with Electrons as Waves,” commemorating the 35th anniversary of the discovery of the diffraction of electrons by crystals and the 25th anniversary of the award, for this discovery, of the Nobel prize in physics to Dr. Clinton J. Davisson and Sir George Paget Thomson. Associate curator Bernard S. Finn assumed responsibility for the development and completion of exhibits in the hall of electricity. Design progressed on exhibits in the first third of this hall devoted to wired communications and power. Dr. Robert A. Chipman, consultant, submitted exhibits scripts for the second section, which will interpret radio communications. Dr. Finn made a study of the electrical exhibits in European museums which will be helpful to him in com <<>> pleting the plans for the exhibits in this hall. An Edison dynamo, restored by Roy V. LaRoche for display in the new museum, was placed upon exhibition in the present power hall. Curator Howard I. Chapelle continued to prepare specifications for ship models which will round out the museum’s outstanding collection of meticulously accurate scale reproductions of vessels illustrating the history of American watercraft. Assistant exhibits chief Benjamin W. Lawless prepared a layout study which will serve as a guide in the placement of fishing boat models in the wall cases in this hall. During the month of June the locomotive Pioneer, of 1851, joined the Camden and Amboy coach of 1836 and the large Southern Railway locomotive on the rails of the railroad hall in the new museum. The Seattle cable car and its specially prepared base showing the heavy underground construction required for operation of this type of vehicle, as well as the old locomotive Stourbridge Lion and a modern diesel locomotive engine, were also placed in the hall. These fullscale objects will shortly be complemented by a series of models and specimens of equipment which will trace the history of railroads and street railways in the United States. he exhibits for this hall have been planned by associate curator John H. White in cooperation with exhibits designer Virginia Mahoney. Museum specialist Donald Berkebile wrote the exhibits scripts for the automobile, carriage, truck, and the motorcycle sections of the automobiles and coaches hall of the new museum, and exhibits designer Fred Craig devised a layout plan for the placement of the vehicles in this hall. In the land transportation halls of the Arts and Industries Building a 1923 Franklin and a Mack Bulldog truck were placed on display. Arts and Manufactures In anticipation of the early installation of the hall of farm machinery in the new building, a number of improvements were made in the series of exhibits in the existing hall in the Arts and Industries building which will be transferred to the Museum of History and Technology in fall of 1963. Among the additions were a brightly renovated horse-drawn grain drill, and a number of scale models of human figures executed by Susan Wallace of the exhibits laboratory which help to give scale and add interest to the models of farm machinery. Associate curator Edward C. Kendall, with the cooperation of consultant Carl Rishell and exhibits designer Riddick Vann, revised the exhibits layout for the hall of forest products and prepared detailed scripts for a number of the historical exhibits which will illus <<>> trate many uses of wood products. The carriage, saw, and gearing from an 18th-century water-powered saw mill was obtained from eastern Pennsylvania for restoration and exhibit in this hall. Curator of graphic arts Jacob Kainen completed the script for the section of the hall of graphic arts which will interpret historical hand processes, and continued to acquire specimens for exhibition in this hall. An internally lighted, continuous-type wall-hung case was designed by assistant exhibits chief Benjamin W. Lawless for the special exhibition of prints and photographs in the new building. This case is also adaptable to the exhibition of books, tools, and other small specimens. Associate curator Eugene Ostroff continued to revise the script for the hall of photography. A substantial number of new exhibits illustrating the development of photographic equipment and techniques will be available as the result of the interest and cooperation of a number of firms and individuals in the photographic industry. The traveling exhibitions J/aster of the Color Woodcut—John Baptist Jackson and Lithographs by Childe Hassam, organized by the division of graphic arts, continued to be circulated throughout the country by the Smithsonian Traveling Exhibition Service. Eight special exhibitions in graphic arts and nine featuring the work of outstanding contemporary photographers were shown during the year: Recent accessions June 1—July 29, 1962 Prints by Daumier and Gavarni July 30-September 30, 1962 Contemporary prints from the collection October 1-31, 1962 Etchings and drypoints by George O’Connell November 1, 1962-January 8, 1963 19th-century advertising illustrations from the January 9-February 3, 1963 collection Woodecuts of Unichi Hiratsuka February 4-March 38, 1963 Intaglio prints by Cyril March 4-31, 1963 Early masters of lithography April 1—-May 5, 19638 Etchings by Liliana Gramberg May 6—June 2, 1963 Joseph Costa June 14—July 30, 1962 Arthur d’Arazien August 1-September 6, 1962 Richard Beattie September 14—-October 30, 1962 Richard Avedon November 1—December 17, 1962 Harry Garfield December 19, 1962—January 30, 1963 Philippe Halsman February 1—March 17, 1965 Bert Stern March 19—April 29, 1963 Alfred Hisenstaedt May 1—June 12, 19638 Irving Penn June 15—July 28, 1963 <<>> Curator Paul V. Gardner is making revisions in the plans for the hall of ceramics in order to include important specimens received during the year. The recently acquired 18th-century German and English porcelains given by Dr. Hans Syz, Mrs. W. A. Sutherland, and other donors have been placed on exhibition in the Natural History building. To honor the VI International Congress on Glass which convened in Washington July 8-14, 1962, the division of ceramics and glass assembled an outstanding exhibition of over 300 glass objects from the museum’s collections and from several important private collections, including those of Franz W. Sichel, Ray Winfield Smith, Walter F. Smith, Jr., Jerome Strauss, and Raymond L. Suppes. This exhibition, which continued to August 18, traced the art of glassmaking from the earliest known objects to the present day. Many specimens displayed had not been previously exhibited or published. A catalog listing was provided for the delegates to the glass congress and an illustrated catalog with an explanatory text is in preparation. Fifteen exhibit units for the new hall of glass were produced in the laboratory during the year. The automatic quilt case in the hall of textiles, which houses 10 quilts and brings them into view one at a time by means of push buttons, continues to be very popular with museum visitors. During the 7 months after a counter mechanism was installed in this display, quilts were brought into view more than 120,000 times, During the peak visitor season this exhibit is operated more than 1,000 times a day. A special exhibition of the handweaving crafts of the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School, Gatlinburg, Tenn., was held in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries building during the month of July 1962. Hand loom demonstrations were given during the first week of this exhibition. Visitors to the Creative Crafts show, held in the Natural History building in September, had the opportunity to make bobbin lace on one of the division’s lace pillows. The American Petroleum Institute continued to render valuable assistance in the planning of exhibits for the new hall of petroleum. The raw material for the exhibit scripts has been assembled. Dr. Richard S. Boardman, curator of invertebrate paleontology, is collaborating with the acting curator of manufacturing and heavy industries (Dr. Philip W. Bishop) and Dr. George V. Cohee of the U.S. Bureau of Mines to ensure a presentation which will not duplicate subject matter interpreted in the hall of invertebrate paleontology of the Museum of Natural History. A model of the first fluid catalytic cracking plant, which began operation at Baton Rouge, La., in May 1942 to produce high-octane gasoline for the United States and <<>> our allies in World War II, was placed on exhibition in the present petroleum hall. It was the gift of the Humble Oil and Refining Company in association with the M. W. Kellogg Company. Dr. Clyde L. Cowan, Jr., of Catholic University cooperated with head curator Philip W. Bishop in the difficult task of preparing descriptive labels for exhibits for the new hall of nuclear energy which will give the layman, possessing little previous knowledge of the subject, an understanding of the technical and historical fundamentals. With the cooperation of many scientific laboratories in the United States and England, they obtained original laboratory equipment of models of such equipment which was important to the early progress of nuclear research. Dr. Bishop also continued the planning of the halls of general manufacturing and iron and steel. On the initiative of Lowell L. Henkel, consultant, negotiations with the iron and steel industry, continued throughout the year, resulted in commitments for the majority of the exhibits proposed for that hall. A large part of the basic information required for the perfection of detailed plans for the general manufacturing hall was assembled. Civil History On November 15, 1962, the fiftieth anniversary of the collection of dresses of the First Ladies of the White House was celebrated with the installation of the inaugural ball gown and cape of Mrs. John F. Kennedy in this unique exhibition. Mr. Laurence Hoes, son of Mrs. Rose Gouverneur Hoes, one of the founders of this collection, was present. Mrs. Kennedy’s dress is displayed on a mannequin made of polyester resin which was sculptured in the museum’s exhibits laboratory. This new material is a great improvement over the plaster of paris previously used because it is light in weight and at the same time resistant to breakage. Work continued during the year on painting the features of the mannequins of the First Ladies with natural color applied to the former colorless plaster. More than half of the group was completed. Associate curator Margaret Brown Klapthor specified the draperies, selected accessory furnishings, and revised the labels for the installation of this collection in the new building in the fall. Assistant exhibits chief Benjamin W. Lawless designed exhibits cases which will house the White House china and related artifacts. Progress was made in the design and production of two other halls in the division of political history, to be installed in the new building during the coming year. Exhibits for the hall of historic Americans, planned by curator Wilcomb E. Washburn in cooperation with exhibits <<>> EXHIBITS Pal designer Robert Widder, were nearing completion at year’s end. Assistant curator Anne W. Murray continued to fit the historic women’s dresses and men’s suits on the mannequins to be exhibited in the hall of American costume as the figures were received. Four introductory panels were designed to symbolize the four centuries of American costume to be interpreted in this hall, and 15 exhibits were produced for the hall in the exhibits laboratory. Two commemorative temporary exhibitions were offered during the year. The centennial of the Emancipation Proclamation was recognized in an exhibition of documents and objects relating to the untislavery movement, Abraham Lincoln’s role in bringing forth emancipation, and the continuing struggle to achieve equality through the fifteenth amendment. ‘The Bill of Rights exhibit, commemorating Bill Horatio Greenough’s statue of George Washington being moved to the new Museum of History and Technology from the Smithsonian Building in September 1962. <<>> of Rights Day, December 15, was highlighted by a carved wooden figure of John Dickinson, Revolutionary patriot and publicist, attributed to William Rush, the first important native American sculptor. This figure was loaned to the museum by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph L. Graham of New York. Twenty-five exhibits were produced for the new hall of everyday life in the American past. Among them was a series of units illustrating through selected specimens Spanish, French, British, Dutch, Flemish, German and Scandinavian influences upon early American home furnishings and thus upon the enrichment of American culture. The exhibits in the cultural history hall in the Museum of Natural History were removed in order to prepare these materials for exhibition in the new building. Under the direction of George H. Watson the woodwork and fireplaces of the period rooms were painstakingly dismantled and moved to the Museum of History and Technology. By year’s end the Bliss and Ely house parlors and a Delaware log house were being erected, and all free-standing cases were placed in the new hall. Installation of this hall is under the direction of curator C. Malcolm Watkins. Exhibits chief John E. Anglim designed the exhibits with the assistance of Deborah Bretzfelder. Assistant curator Cynthia Adams Hoover, in cooperation with exhibits designer Virginia Mahoney, developed plans for the new hall of musical instruments, which will feature a number of historic keyboard instruments that have been restored to playing condition. In February Mrs. Hoover directed an evening program of late 18thcentury music played on contemporary instruments, including a newly restored Austrian grand piano made in 1788, two trumpets, and a onekeyed flute. An unusual and difficult operation was successfully accomplished with the removal of Horatio Greenough’s statue of George Washington from the chapel of the Smithsonian Institution to the central corridor of the second floor of the Museum of History and Technology, where it stands at the entrance to the series of halls which will interpret the growth of the United States. Exhibits scripts for three of the five halls of the growth of the United States series have been prepared by associate curator Peter Welsh in collaboration with Dr. Anthony N. B. Garvan, Chairman of the Department of American Civilization, University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Garvan also assisted the museum in acquiring a wide range of notable objects for these displays. Exhibits designers Robert Widder and Nadya Kayaloft prepared detailed layout drawings for many of the units in two halls of this series. George Watson restored an 18th-century Pennsylvania water wheel and gear train which will illustrate the ingenuity and <<>> EXHIBITS ies skill of the colonial millwright and demonstrate the use and transmission of power in colonial times. The production of exhibits for the hall of philately was begun and 18 units were completed, among them a series of displays on the history of the post in the District of Columbia. Associate curator Francis J. McCall and assistant curator Carl H. Scheele prepared scripts for the several series of exhibits in this hall devoted to the history of the posts in this country and abroad, methods of postal transportation, metering devices, and the design and production of United States stamps. Exhibits designer John Clendening is preparing the detailed layouts for these units. At the same time the mounting of the extensive collections of stamps from all countries, for display in vertical pull-out frames around the perimeter of this hall, is going forward. The division of philately offered two major temporary exhibitions during the year. During September 1962 a display of rare historic British stamps was presented with the cooperation of the General Post Office, London, and the Crown Agents. Among the unusual items shown was the original post office order book appointing Benjamin Franklin as Deputy Postmaster of North America. On June 6, 1963, an exhibition of stamps from more than 100 nations was opened to commemorate the current worldwide Freedom from Hunger Campaign. Both exhibitions were held in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries building. Armed Forces History Curator of military history Edgar M. Howell, curator of naval history Philip K. Lundeberg, and associate curator of naval history Melvin H. Jackson continued to write scripts and provide technical supervision of the design and production of exhibits for the new Museum of History and Technology. The designer of these is Fred Craig. For the naval history exhibits models were obtained of the Civil War steam sloop-of-war Hartford, Admiral Farragut’s flagship of “damn the torpedoes” fame at the battle of Mobile Bay; the submarine Holland; the frigate Congress; an example of a “Jefferson gunboat”; and the Coast Guard cutter Storis. Among the exhibits produced during the year were units interpreting the roles of the Army in the Mexican War, in frontier service during the mid-19th century, and in the Civil War; and others depicting the service of the Navy in the Mexican and Civil Wars. Associate curator of military history Craddock H. Goins continued to plan exhibits for the hall of ordnance. Production of these, which <<>> are being designed by John Brown, was nearing completion by year’s end. Among them were displays interpreting the interchangeable parts system of manufacturing, a significant development in the history of firearms; the development of land artillery and naval guns; and the history of tanks and armored warfare. Exhibits associated with the original Continental gunboat Philadelphia, to be displayed at the west end of this hall, were planned by Dr. Lundeberg. These include original items of equipment recovered with the gunboat from the waters of Lake Champlain and graphic materials which help to explain the Battle of Valeour Island on October 11, 1776, in which this gunboat participated. Mr. Howell continued to supervise the preparation of the StarSpangled Banner for exhibition in the central rotunda of the new building. During fall of 1962 skilled seamstresses sewed tapes to the flag backing which will serve to support this great national treasure in its prominent new location. During the year British decorations and service medals were placed on view in the military hall, along with a British infantry accompanying gun captured at the battle of Saratoga and a rare Model 1866 Gatling gun. The division of naval history sponsored and cooperated in the installation of the United States Coast Guard’s exhibit, interpreting that organization’s many services during its 174 years of existence, in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries buildmg. In spring of 1963 half models, paintings, prints, and items from the Farragut and Wilkes collections were loaned for the U.S. Navy exhibit at the Musée de la Marine in Paris. <<>> Aeccessions During The Fiscal Year 1963 The national collections were increased during the past year by 1,723,850 specimens. ‘These materials were distributed among the 8 departments as follows: anthropology 11,993; zoology 1,361,586; botany 69,642 ; Beology 80,414; science and technology 2,588; arts and manufactures 2,910; civil history 191,753; and armed forces history 2,944.

A. Ford, and comprising the subject of his recently published monograph, “Eskimo prehistory in the vicinity of Poimt Barrow.” Three important collections of Iranian materials, ranging in time from about 2000 B.C. to the 3d century A.D. and including several pieces that will be used in new exhibits, were presented by Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Cuomo, Mr. and Mrs, Daniel F. Magner, and C. Edward Wells. James Pi Mandaville, Jr., donated North Arabian pottery and terra cotta figurine fragments, and an inscribed copper hoe blade, from the beginning of the Christian Era to the early Islamic period. Coming from one of the least known areas in the Middle East, these items constitute a very useful addition to the study collections. A rare anthropomorphic pottery figure from the Bahia culture of the Esmeraldas region, Ecuador, was obtained from Mrs. Erika Burt. The North American study collections were expanded by acquisition of survey materials from Virginia sites presented by Dr. C. G. Holland and by Maryland materials from R. E. Stearns. The largest single accession of the year is a collection of 50,000 somatotype photographic negatives received by the division of physical anthropology from the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine. Made during the U.S. Army survey of male body build in 1945-46 under direction of E. A. Hooton, they form the basis for the Harvard system of rating body build. The collection, largest of its kind, will be available for study only by qualified professionals. <<>> ACCESSIONS il Useful for study and exhibit purposes are a new set of casts of the original Neanderthal skeleton, gift of the Rheimisches Landesmuseum, Bonn, Germany, and excellent casts of Oreopithecus from central Italy, received from the Natural History Museum in Basel, Switzerland. Other accessions include human skeletal materials from Mexico, Alaska, and various parts of the United States. In the division of ethnology, under the exhibits modernization program, 365 Chinese specimens were obtained from Taiwan with assistance of the National Historical Museum and the Provincial Museum and under direction of the Ministry of Education and the Academia Sinica. This includes material to represent six cultural themes in exhibits now in the detailed planning stage. The government of Viet Nam, through its embassy, donated 67 specimens of textiles, bronze vessels, and wooden chests. Traditional court costume from Indonesia is represented by 25 items presented by His Highness, Sri Paku Alam VIII, through the American embassy in Djakarta. A collection of 103 ornaments, household items, and weapons of the Burundi people was obtained from David W. Doyle, American viceconsul at Usumbura, Burundi, especially for use in future exhibits. Already on display is a large wooden tamborin house figure from New Guinea, obtained from John H. Brandt. Herbert G. Deignan, former curator of ornithology, presented 43 weapons and other objects from North Borneo and North Thailand. Zoology Principally as the result of intensive field activity by staff members and cooperating agencies, approximately 9,200 specimens have been added to the mammal collections.

The Texas material is of superior quality and will be most useful in morphological work. ‘These specimens were collected by Dr. Nicholas Hotton III of the museum staff and James W. Kitching of the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa. A remarkably good collection comprising remains of a variety of Eocene mammals found by W. lL. Rohrer in the Big Horn Basin of Wyoming was transferred from the U.S. Geological Survey. Noteworthy are skull portions of the large pantodont coryphodon, jaws and maxillae of the early horse yracotherium and the lemuroid primate Pelycodus, and the greater part of a skull of a rare leptictid insectivore. Science and Technology The Bell Telephone Laboratories presented to the division of physical sciences the apparatus used by Dr. Clinton T. Davisson in his 1927 investigations of interference phenomena in crystals irradiated by electrons, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1937. Received also was a full-scale reproduction of an observational armillary, one of the large astronomical instruments used by Tycho Brache, from L. C. Eichner. >> Restore] farm wagon of 1860, donated to the Museum by A. W. Berkkebilo.

Becker, John Coolidge, and the National Trust for Historic Preservation, respectively. A handsomely bound book presented to Theodore Roosevelt by the Faculty Club of the University of California, The Silva of California, was given by his grandson Cornelius Van S. Roosevelt. A number of items, including a fan, a brown satin apron, and other articles of the clothing which belonged to Dolley Madison were donated by her great-great-great grand niece, Miss Barbara Donald. Mrs. Herbert A. May donated the famous Napoleon diamond necklace, presented by the Emperor to his wife, the Empress Marie Louise, on the occasion of the birth of their son, the King of Rome. To the collections of the division of cultural history were added an important block-front tall clock from Rhode Island, a Philadelphia “pie crust” table, and other significant items, donated by Mrs. Francis P. Garvan; Mrs. Harry T. Peters and her children, Harry T. Peters, Jr., and Mrs. Charles D. Webster, presented eleven large folio lithographs by Currier & Ives and others, a valuable addition to the nearly 2,000 prints given by this family. Mr. & Mrs. A. Philip Stockvis gave a varied group which includes an American Chippendale armchair. For the musical instruments collection, the Le Blane Corporation presented a basset horn, contra-bass clarinet, bass clarinet, and two alto clarinets. The division of philately and postal history added 178,626 specimens to its collections. One of the most significant of the recent gifts came from Bernard Peyton of Princeton, N.J., who gave a cover used in the Confederate States, to which is affixed a block of twelve 2-cent Jackson Confederate stamps. This is the largest known block of these stamps on a cover. Funds donated by the Charles and Rosanna Batchelor Memorial, Inc., made possible valuable additions to the Emma E. Batchelor airmail collection. The division of numismatics received significant contributions of rare half dollars from R. E. Cox, Jr., of Fort Worth, Tex. Extensive donations by the Messrs. Stack of New York City included original drawings for United States patterns and medals, and Harvey Stack gave a hitherto unknown variety of the extremely rare Indian Peace Medal, portraying President George Washington, dated 1843 and clistributed by one of the fur trading companies in the Missouri Territory. To our holdings in modern coins the Honorable R. Henry Norweb of Cleveland, Ohio, contributed a virtually complete collection <<>> ACCESSIONS Al of Newfoundland issues dating from 1865 to 1947. Willis H. duPont of Wilmington, Del., added to his previous donations of Russian coins and medals formerly owned by the Grand Duke Mikhailovitch a group of 778 coins struck during the reigns of Peter III and Catherine II up to 1774, and medals struck during the period from 1762 to 1794. Mrs. Wayte Raymond of New York City contributed 620 important modern coins of the world, and Mrs. F. C. C. Boyd of New York City gave 572 Mexican coins comprising many issues of the revolutionary period. Mr. Philip H. Chase of Wynnewood, Pa., donated a very rare album, “The Currency of the Confederate States of America,” prepared by Raphael P. Thian about 1880 and containing 286 notes and their descriptions. Mr. and Mrs. Isadore Snyderman of New York City presented a unique gold plaquette of 1906, made by Victor D. Brenner in commemoration of the removal of the remains of John Paul Jones from Paris to Annapolis in 1905. Armed Forces History The collections of the division of military history were enriched by a unique Henry rifle presented to President Lincoln and given by Mr. Robert Lincoln Beckwith. The William De Laney Travis Civil War panorama Zhe Army of the Cumberland was received from Mr. C. C. Travis and Mrs. Hattie Kidd. A fine group of decorations awarded to Captain C. H. Huntington was presented by Mrs. Huntington, A rare Medal of Honor and associated Civil War medals awarded Lieutenant Edward B. Williston was received from the Department of the Navy. The division of naval history acquired from Captain P. V. H. Weems the Weems Memorial Library and its associated collection of navigational instruments illustrative of the progressive solution of problems posed by aerial navigation from its earliest days. The collection includes a notably fine run of Bowditch’s The New American Practical Navigator from the first to fifteenth editions and Moore’s Practical Navigator (ed. 1796) which the young Bowditch found to include some 8,000 errors and served as a format for his celebrated work. Included also are navigation instruments used in the polar flights of Richard E. Byrd and Lincoln Ellsworth. The division’s uniform collection has been greatly enhanced by the gift of Mrs. Ernest J. King, widow of Fleet Admiral Ernest J. King, which included a number of her late husband’s uniforms, orders, and decorations. Mrs. Philip Wrigley presented rare and interesting naval uniforms of the World War I period, and an extensive collection of contempo- 706-307—64__4 <<>> rary naval uniforms was donated by the Department of the Navy and Jacob Reed and Sons of Philadelphia. The U.S. Coast Guard transferred a wide selection of objects pertaining to the history of that Service, including items of ordnance, two sets of gangway headboards, a first-order catadioptric lens, original drafts of a variety of lghthouse lenses, a surfboat and fully equipped beach cart, and eight handsome models of revenue cutters. Floyd D. Houston of New Suffolk, N.Y., presented his finely executed model of the submarine /7ol/and, the first submarine in the U.S. Navy. Through the courtesy of E. B. Tucker and the government of Bermuda, head curator Mendel L. Peterson and museum technician Alan B. Albright obtained a significant collection of artifacts from underwater sites in the Bermuda reefs, These included materials of glass, ceramics and metal from sites dating from 1595 through 1838. The earliest site yielded a rare pewter porringer. The site of the San Antonio, a Spanish ship which sank in 1621, yielded more ordnance materials and traces of trade goods. The site of the Hage, a Virginia Company ship which went down in 1658, produced clay pipes, a soapstone bullet mold, a solid iron shot for the ship’s main battery, and other artifacts of significance. The site of L’Herminie, a French frigate which sank in 1838, was extensively explored and from it were collected glass and unmarked porcelain from the wardroom services and a collection of perfect bottles including those for brandy, wine, oil, and clarified olive oil with the seal of the merchant.

Anthropology Good progress was made in renovation of the space assigned to the division of archeology in the main building and part of this has been utilized by the division. Most of the African and Asian collections have been moved to storage in the new east wing, where they are currently being rearranged and reclassified. As a result of this move, the North American collections in the north attic are being arranged in a manner that will make them much more accessible than heretofore. The area around the skylight in the north attic has also <<>> been floored so that large objects, such as boats, can be stored and yet be conveniently available for study. Of the 450 George Catlin paintings in the division of ethnology, only 13 remain to be cleaned, restored, and mounted, and these will be completed by H. G. Courtais this year. For record purposes and also to provide prints for the continuing public demand, all of the paintings have been photographed, in color and in black and white, before and after restoration. During the year, the anthropological laboratory was moved from the ground floor to the third floor of the Natural History building, and its storage in the north attic was changed to the east end of the east attic. The repair and restoration of damaged anthropological specimens, including newly received objects and others from our older collections, was 2 continuing activity on the part of exhibits speciahst A. J. Andrews. More than 400 objects, ethnological, archeological, and physical anthropological, were handled in the laboratory. Scientific illustrator George R. Lewis completed 107 stipple and 382 line-drawings, drew 22 maps and charts, made 387 labels and signs, retouched 6 photographs, and completed 14 detailed pencil and 4 ink wash and color jobs. Zoology Considerable progress was made in the division of mammals in rearranging the skeletons and part of the alcoholic collection of small mammals. The skins and skulls of cricetine rodents and of the weasels and related mustelid carnivores were also put in order. In cooperation with the staff of the Mammal Laboratory of the Fish and Wildlife Service, index cards were prepared for most of the sciurid, geomyid, and heteromyid rodents of the New World. Because of construction work in the west attic, it was necessary to move part of the large skeletons housed there to temporary storage, and others were made inaccessible for most of the year. Bases mounted on casters were constructed for several of the large and fragile whale skulls that will have to be moved several times during the construction program. Special wooden cases were designed for storage of a large collection of loose antlers. The contents of the unit cases of large mammal skins were partly rearranged in preparation for the future move into new quarters. The room that houses the dermestid beetle colony for cleaning small skulls and skeletons was renovated, as were the tank and other apparatus that is used to clean larger osteological material. With the move of the division of birds into new quarters, several previously existing problems involving the care and use of the collec <<>> tions have been solved. The bird skin storage cases, formerly crowded into three tiers and arranged systematically in horizontal strata, are now in one and two tier rows, the tops of the single tier rows serving as work surfaces. The systematic order of the cases now allows for expansion with little or no disruption of the arrangement of the collection, and ceiling height im the storage area will permit eventual expansion of the collection into a third tier of cases. The collection of bird anatomical specimens in alcohol has been moved from the storage area in the division of reptiles and amphibians to a spacious new alcoholic storage room in the division of birds. During the year, 1,758 specimens of reptiles and amphibians were identified, cataloged, and shelved. Progress has continued with the inventory of snakes, and new metal labels are being used to replace corroded labels and parchment labels. The use of ground-glass-stoppered jars with petrolatum seals almost completely negates the problem of evaporation of the alcoholic collections. Portions of the collections of fishes formerly housed at the Zoological Park and two large storage tanks have been moved to the Smithsonian Oceanographic Sorting Center because space for them is not Study skins laid out for inspection in new east wing storage area of division of birds. <<>> presently available in the division of fishes. Progress has been made in surveying the collection and replenishing alcohol that has evaporated from the contaiers. It is anticipated that this work will be completed within a period of two years. Because of the improved storage facilities at the Lamont Street building, it has been possible to rearrange most of the collections in the division of insects. The collection is now in better condition than at any time in the preceding three decades. The entire collection of water beetles was arranged systematically and all of it identified at least to genus. Among the Hemiptera, the entire collection of Pentatomidae (stink bugs) has been brought together from several collections, identified, and arranged in 240 labeled insect drawers. Almost 10,000 specimens derived from the John C. Lutz collection and the remaining specimens of Membracidae (tree hoppers) from the Funkhouser collection have been incorporated in the regular series. The collections of most of the neuropteroid orders (ant lions, caddisflies, dragonflies, damselflies, and the like) have been brought together, identified, and rearranged so that, for the first time, it is possible to find any specimen from any part of the world. Large segments of the collection of Lepidoptera, formerly temporarily stored, have New design racks hold alcoholic specimens of mollusks in east wing. <<>> been rearranged in standard museum drawers. More than 15,000 specimens from the George W. Rawson and J.C. Hopfinger collections of Lepidoptera have been similarly rearranged and properly tagged, and several thousand members of the microlepidopteran families have been spread and readied for critical study and identification. The summer intern program in the division was highly successful. Among the accomplishments was the sorting and identification to superfamily or lower categories of 19,360 miscellaneous Hymenoptera (bees, wasps, and the like) by summer intern Gary McLaughlin, who also assisted in the care of the Arachnida-Myriapoda collection. Summer intern Louis Bourne cleaned 3,168 drawers and replenished the needed cork bottoms and fumigant in many of them. He also assisted in the rearrangements of collections of butterflies and neuropteroids. Dr. W. Donald Duckworth, then a summer intern, continued work begun in the summer of 1961 and rearranged several families of Microlepidoptera requiring the preparation of several hundreds of microscope slides. Summer intern Dennis E. Puleston rearranged some 8,300 specimens of Lepidoptera, and summer intern Nancy Lawson sorted and organized many thousands of locality labels and assisted in reorganizing the collection of Odonata. Greater progress has been made during the past year in the reorganization of the collections of marine invertebrates than during any other year since World War II. Under the direction of curator Donald F. Squires and with the assistance of museum technicians Charles E. Goode and T. P. Lowe, the collection of corals is well on the way toward achieving its potential value and usefulness. Approximately 80 quarter-unit cases of corals formerly housed in the attic have now been incorporated with the main collection. Important West Indian collections, many U.S. Exploring Expedition types, and the extensive Steere collection from the Philippine Islands have become readily available for study, as has the large Marshall Islands collections which formed the core of the comprehensive monograph by J. W. Wells on Indo-Pacific reef corals. The inventory and rearrangement of the entire echinoderm collection started early in the fiscal year by summer interns John C. McCain and James F. Casey, Jr., under the direction of associate curator Charles KE. Cutress, Jr., was completed before the end of the year by museum technicians Maureen E. Downey and Emily C. Mandelbaum. The vast collection of identified crayfishes has been completely rearranged in a single, readily accessible unit by museum technicians John T. Irving and Roland H. Brown, working under the direction of head curator Horton H. Hobbs, Jr. Mr. Brown has also made commendable progress in reducing the extensive backlog of identified but uncataloged crayfishes, and Dr, Hobbs is steadily decreasing <<>> the backlog of unidentified specimens. Museum aide Nathaniel L. Livingston has checked the preservation of all type material in alcohol and has added fumigant to all boxes of dry material in the attic and to a large part of those on the ground floor. During the past year, the division of mollusks moved into new quarters on the fifth floor of the east wing of the museum. As a result, except for a limited number of duplicate specimens, the collection of mollusks is concentrated in one area sufficiently large to allow for expansion for some years to come. In the process of preparing for the move, associate curator Joseph Rosewater, with the assistance of museum technicians W. J. Byas and J. A. Pendergrass, rearranged and brought together into one series eight separate collections previously located in several rooms. The alcoholic collection, formerly inconveniently housed on the ground floor of the museum, was similarly moved into a room adjacent to the shell collection where it is now readily accessible to staff members and visitors. The slide collection has been relabeled, indexed, and installed in a new steel slide cabinet. Botany The delivery of 210 new herbarium cases made it possible to expand the collections of the division of phanerogams about 10 percent. This has relieved the crowded conditions sufficiently to permit insertion of new material without injury to the specimens. The major activities in caring for the permanent collections and the processing of new material are summarized in the following table: 1961-62 1962-63 Specimens and photographs mounted ......... 31, 030 30, 441 SPecimens wrepainreditrwme ance dae ala atte Seco hes teare aes 11, 463 18, 925 Specimens stamped and recorded ............ 16, 341 34, 692 Specimens incorporated in herbarium or added to the eam, COllenIOMS 5556506000000 0000¢ 27, 892 20, 424 There are now 59,302 types in the segregated type herbarium, including 41,509 phanerogams, 10,115 grasses, 3,482 ferns, and 4,396 cryptogams. ‘This isan increase of 166 types during the year. Geology The removal of all the collections of the department to the new space in the east wing enabled a rearrangement of the specimens into more useful and efficient schemes. The storage collections are in large center areas surrounded by the offices. Ready accessibility of office to storage is thus a very convenient arrangement. As it was moved, the mineral collection was in part rearranged according to a more <<>> modern chemical-structural classification. The large mineral specimens were taken out of dead storage, cleaned, classified, and placed in new and readily accessible storage facilities. The move of the invertebrate paleontology and paleobotany collections offered an opportunity for major rearrangements of a large part of the collection on a drawer-by-drawer level, bringing together all of the scattered drawers of one category in a prearranged sequence as the move was made. The large invertebrate stratigraphic collection was brought together into groupings based on geologic system and geographic location by state or foreign country. The general paleobotanical collections were arranged in order of stratigraphic occurrence and the rearrangement of all Paleozoic and Mesozoic type and biologic sets of mollusks was completed. Museum technician James Ferrigno, under the direction of associate curator Richard Cifelli, has made considerable progress in sorting and reorganizing the several thousand bulk, unwashed foraminiferal samples. Although not completely inventoried, these specimens are for the first time conveniently arranged for research or exchange purposes. A significant modification of the standard dry peel method of making replicas of polished surfaces of skeletal specimens that are subject to differential etching with acids or other reagents was developed this last year by research associate John Utgaard, museum technician Lorenzo Ford, and Jesse KE. Merida of the U.S. Geological Survey. The standard technique used acetate paper as the medium onto which the impression of the etched surface was made. The paper was either unmounted or pre-mounted on a glass slide. Because of the flexibility and crinkling of the paper, study under a microscope was difficult and detailed measurements were not reliable. The crinkling difficulty was overcome by using slides made entirely of cellulose acetate or plexiglass in dimensions approximating those of a standard glass slide. The replicas are then comparable to a thin section in use. The plastic slides are essentially unbreakable and are adapted to making serial sections or a number of replicas of a single surface of a type or other important specimen. The most important use of these slides will be in preliminary study of groups that require thin sections, as the process takes less than half the preparation time that finished thin sections require. A surface from which preliminary peels have been made is still available, of course, for thin-sectioning. In the new distribution of the study collection of vertebrate fossils, all of the fossil land mammals, except for Oligocene titanotheres which remain in the old storage area, are now housed in the east wing. <<>> Fossil marine mammals are to remain on the steel range of the old storage area and eventually to occupy this entire space. Fossil birds are presently on the steel range but are to be moved to the east wing when additional storage equipment becomes available. All of the collections of fossil reptiles and amphibians, except for an unprepared portion of the Marsh collection, were moved to the east wing and retained their previous taxonomic arrangement. Available storage on the first floor of the new wing also permitted the moving of the collection of fossil agnathous, sharklike and ray-finned fishes. >> CARE OF COLLECTIONS Sl ployed to restore certain notable instruments to playing condition. Completed this year were the restoration by Hugh Gough of New York of a German fretted clavichord and an English square piano made by Erard & Co. in 1799, and by John Shortridge of Harpers Ferry, W. Va., of a grand piano made by Johann Schmidt of Salzburg in 1788. ; The collections of archeological artifacts from recent excavations of colonial sites have been systematized and a program of restoration of pottery and glass utensils is being conducted so that their worth as museum specimens for either study or exhibition will be greatly enhanced. Archeological aide, Richard J. Muzzrole, has evolved a technique for durable and pleasing restoration of colonial wine bottles through the use of epoxy resin and fibreglass. Restoration specialist Gordon Dentry has skillfully restored a late 17th-century Hartford “tulip and sunflower” decorated oak chest. This valuable chest, “restored” according to 19th century concepts in 1883, was painstakingly analyzed on the basis of internal evidence and brought back to the closest possible approximation of its original appearance. Arts and Manufactures Tn the division of textiles, museum aide Lois Vann has continued the work of improving the storage of the lace needlework, and fabric collections. Small items have been laid on linen screens, stretched in wooden frames that fit horizontally into slots in the storage units. The screens have been found most satisfactory and are being used more extensively. The frames allow many small items to be stored in little space while eliminating the necessity of placing them on top of one another as in a drawer, thus avoiding undue pressure. The screens are of correct dimension to fit into special exhibit cases, thus allowing a permanent mount to be made for some items. Museum aide Everett Parker continued his work of cleaning textile machines and patent models for exhibition, following the patent specifications for reassembling and for replacing missing or broken parts. In the division of ceramics and glass, the inventory and rearrangement of storage items are continuing, and the accessioning and cataloging of new objects are progressing. A large number of renovations was completed by museum technicians John C. Carter and Francis Gadson in the division of manufactures and heavy industries. In the division of graphic arts, associate curator Fuller O. Griffith directed the cleaning, placing in plastic coverings, and tagging of 145 patent models in preparation to moving to the Museum of History and Technology. In the section of photography, associate curator Kugene <<>> Ostroff relocated the collection of photographs in dust-proof containers in an air-conditioned storage area. In the division of agriculture and forest products, associate curator Edward C. Kendall, museum technican John Wingo, and other departmental aides, have been preparing the 1886 Holt combine which will occupy the center of the farm machinery hall in the new building. The only available guides as to the original condition of the machine are small color transparencies taken by Mr. Kendall in Stockton in 1959. The combine has now been disassembled in preparation for moving it to the new space. Armed Forces History Under the direction of museum specialist Donald E. Kloster, the rearrangement of collections in the division of military history was continued with special reference to preparation for the move into the Museum of History and Technology. The same objective was followed in the division of naval history. Work was performed in the preparation of the missing portions of the Star Spangled Banner under the direction of curator Edgar M. Howell, with the technical advice of curator of textiles, Grace Rogers Cooper. The gondola Philadelphia was moved to its final position in the armed forces hall of the new Museum of History and Technology, and it was left in its crating pending completion of the hall. A regular program of inspection has been maintained. With the advent of the heating season, it was determined that the humidity content of the building had dropped to a dangerously low level, and to counteract the excessively dry ambient air, a humidifying apparatus was installed. Hygroscopic records indicate a substantial increase in moisture content within the crate which has checked any tendency toward friability. Several projects of new construction have been completed in the new model shop under the direction of exhibits specialist Howard P. Hoffman. The first model to be constructed is a fine decorative half model of the proposed Doughty revenue cutter of 1825. Two other builder’s models—one, a shoal-draft drop-keel cutter of 1819, the other, a pilot schooner of 1793—are in various stages of construction. The shop has also undertaken a program of restoration and refinishing of half models, and the maintenance and repair of rigged models. The program of preserving materials recovered from underwater sites accelerated during the year through the efforts of museum techmician Alan B. Albright. Special techniques of preserving organic materials with polyethylene glycol are being studied and marked progress has been made in the use of the denser forms of this substance. <<>> Investigation and Research Some of the research projects described below have been undertaken with the partial support of research grants from such Federal granting agencies as the National Science Foundation and the Office of Naval Research. A detailed listing of these is published in the Report of the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. 4a c% Ab i. ae ae 7. 2 Completion of east wing was accompanied by remodeling of the Smithsonian library, located along the northeast range of the main Natural History Building. Anthropology At the Second International Conference on Oral Biology, which was convened in Bonn, Germany, in July, T. Dale Stewart, then head curator but since November Director of the Museum of Natural His- <<>> o4 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1963 tory, presented an invitational paper entitled, “New Developments in Evaluating Evidence from the Skeleton.” During this visit, Dr. Stewart was invited by the Rheinisches Landesmuseum to prepare for publication in the Bonner Jahrbicher, the official journal of that museum, a paper on some aspect of the original Neanderthal find, which is preserved at the Landesmuseum. He has chosen to study the scapula and in restoring it has assembled and measured large series of modern scapulae. Following the Conference in Bonn, Dr. Stewart visited the caves in southern France and northern Spain containing examples of prehistoric art, in an effort to determine the feasibility of reproducing portions of a cave wall in the currently developing exhibit hall on Old World archaeology. During September and October Dr. Stewart continued his studies of the skeletal remains of two Neanderthal individuals collected by him in the Shanidar excavations in Iraq. These studies supported earlier convictions that the Shanidar Neanderthal population remained fairly homogeneous throughout the 15,000 years estimated to be represented by the collections. Head curator Waldo R. Wedel completed a review of some environmental limitations of the western plains in relation to their occupation by the aboriginal populations, under the title “The High Plains and Their Utilization by the Indian.” This study emphasizes the extent to which the distribution of surface-water supplies influenced the seasonal patterns of travel and residence by the earliest inhabitants of the semi-arid Great Plains region. At the annual meetings of the Society for American Archaeology in Boulder, Colo., Dr. Wedel presented a preliminary report on the excavations made in 1961-1962 at the Lamb Spring site near Littleton, Colo.; with Dr. C. Lewis Gazin, curator of vertebrate paleontology, he investigated the possibility of an association between man and a late Pleistocene faunal assemblage. The geological aspects of the work were reviewed in consultation with scientists at the Denver section of the U.S. Geological Survey at the time of the meetings in Boulder. Archeology.—At the beginning of the year, while still curator of archeology, Waldo R. Wedel, with museum specialist George Metcalf and exhibits specialist Peter W. Bowman, continued field investigations begun in 1961, near Littleton, Colo. At the end of the field season in late August some 2,400 square feet of deposits around an ancient spring had been excavated to depths up to 11 feet, and extensive collections made of bones of the mammoth, bison, and other mammals. Although conclusive evidence of man’s association here with the mammoth was not obtained, a stratified section of the <<>> deposit and recovery of several key artifact types in situ established man’s presence at least as far back as Eden-Scottsbluff times, some 7,000 years ago. Bone samples have been submitted for radiocarbon dating tests. Early in November Dr. Wedel, associate curator Clifford Evans, and research associate Betty Meggers participated in a symposium entitled “Prehistoric Man in the New World,” as a part of the ee anniversary celebration of the founding of Rice University. . Wedel reviewed the archeology of the North American Great sae Dr. Evans that of Lowland South America, and Dr. Meggers diseased the cultural connections and convergences between North and South America. All the papers from this symposium will be published by the University of Chicago Press. In November Dr. Wedel was appointed head curator of anthropology. He also served as chairman of the 20th Plains Archeological Conference in Lincoln, Nebr. In August the then associate curator, but since March divisional curator Clifford Evans and research associate Betty J. Meggers attended the 35th International Congress of Americanists in Mexico City. At this meeting, they served as organizers and co-chairmen of a symposium on aboriginal cultural development in Latin America; subsequently, they jointly edited the papers of the symposium participants for publication in the Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections. Dr. Evans with Emilio Estrada contributed a paper on “Cultural Development in Ecuador” and Dr. Meggers spoke on “Cultural Development in Latin America: An Interpretative Overview.” Drs. Evans and Meggers completed and submitted for publication a manuscript on the Jambeli culture of Ecuador initiated in the previous year in collaboration with Emilio Estrada; a paper by the same authors on the Machalilla culture of Ecuador was published in the journal American Antiquity. From January to March, Drs. Evans and Meggers conducted a joint field operation with Dr. Saul H. Riesenberg, curator of ethnology, at the Micronesian Island of Ponape in the Trust Territory of the Pacific. To test the validity of oral history, the archeological members of the team collected an impressive mass of data for comparison with the development of the cultural history, as passed orally from one generation to the next; preliminary conclusions indicate a high degree of correlation. Following this field program, Drs. Evans and Meggers traveled to Taiwan and Japan to examine collections of the Jomon period for possible relationships with the Valdivia culture of Ecuador, and to consult with Japanese colleagues. Museum collections in all the major institutions on the islands <<>> of Honshu and Kyushu were studied and photographed; new insights were obtained into the problem of possible trans-Pacific movements between southern Japan and Ecuador in the period 2000 to 2500 B.C. Associate curator Gus Van Beek continued preparation of his final report on Hajar Bin Humeid, the longest inhabited site in southern Arabia thus far excavated. He also began, in collaboration with Drs. Albert Jamme and Glen H. Cole, a preliminary report on the field accomplishments of the South Arabian Expedition of 1961-62 at Wadi Hadhramaut. At the annual meeting in Baltimore of the Archaeological Institute of America he presented a paper “An Archaeological Survey of Wadi Hadhramaut, South Arabia.” Dr. Van Beek also completed for publication a manuscript on a unique copper hoe collected by J. P. Mandaville in northeastern Arabia and subsequently presented to the National Museum. Museum specialist George Metcalf, after his return from field work with Dr. Wedel near Littleton, Colo., resumed work on a study of archeological materials collected earlier in Nebraska. Honorary research associate Neil M. Judd completed a manuscript on the architecture of Pueblo Bonito. Collaborator John M. Campbell conducted field work in an Eskimo site in Greenland in July and subsequently continued study of materials collected earlier in the Brooks Range in Alaska as part of a long-range program aimed at reconstructing the course of human movements through Alaska into North America. Ethnology.—Curator Saul H. Riesenberg devoted considerable time to editing the contributions to the ethnohistory symposium he organized for the Tenth Pacific Science Congress. The Caroline Islands in the western Pacific Ocean, the island of Ponape precisely, were the site of an interesting and almost unique experiment involving Dr. Riesenberg and Drs. Evans and Meggers of the division of archeology. Just off the eastern coast of Ponape a complex of artificial islets and megalithic structures known as Nan Madol has existed for a long time. ‘To determine the accuracy of the oral history of the area, Dr. Riesenberg collected traditions relating to the structures while Drs. Evans and Meggers collected archeological data which permitted them to reconstruct, at least tentatively, the history of the islets. In the 6 weeks of joint investigation, it was established that oral traditions in this area have greater historical validity than is generally conceded by anthropologists. A joint report will present the results of this team effort. Dr. Riesenberg has completed his contribution to a major monograph of the folklore of Ponape being prepared for publication with Dr. John L. Fischer of Tulane University. In addition to planning exhibits for a new display on the peoples of Africa, associate curator Gordon D. Gibson prepared a report <<>> Figure for an iron smelting diorama in the hall of peoples of Asia and Africa, being modeled in clay by sculptor John B. Weaver. The tribesmen represented are from the Mandara Mountain region of the Northern Cameroons. on the Himba trumpet, a unique musical instrument which he collected in the course of his field work earlier in South-West Africa. He attended the annual meeting of the African Studies Association in Washington in October, and the annual meeting of the American Anthropological Association in Chicago. Planning of the new exhibits on the peoples of Asia has occupied much of the time of associate curator Eugene I. Knez; in connection with this effort, as well as with his primary research interests, he continued to search Korean historical literature for information to supplement his field studies of Korean material culture. In August, his long and active interest in Korean culture was formally recognized by a letter of appreciation from the government of the Republic of Korea. The Canela tribe of Indians in eastern Brazil is a technologically simple group whose cultural characteristics are being rapidly 706—307—64——5 <<>> altered by increasing contact with the neighboring Portuguese population, as well as with other unrelated Indian cultures. Associate curator William H. Crocker continued his organizing of the field data obtained in the course of field contacts with the Canela over several years before joining the staff. On the basis of these materials, two papers have already been prepared; one was presented at the 35th International Congress of Americanists in Mexico City and will be published in the Proceedings of the Congress, and the second was read before the American Anthropological Association meeting in Chicago and will be expanded for publication by the Niedersichsisches Landesmuseum, in Hanover. Dr. Crocker has also been serving as contributing editor on South American ethnology for the “Handbook of Latin American Studies.” Physical Anthropology.—In September Dr. J. Lawrence Angel joined the staff as curator of the division of physical anthropology. He has completed a statistical analysis of a structural feature of the human femur which appears to be the result of pressure from the circular ligament of the hip joint. He also re-shaped his research project on the anthropology of chronic disease to include research on aging and paleopathology of populations represented in the divisional collections. Dr. Angel lectured to several local groups on various topics, and continued the consultant services for law enforcement agencies which have been performed by his predecessors for many years. Museum specialist Lucile E. Hoyme continued her studies of possible relationships between climatic factors and the cranial measurements of North American Indians, Eskimos, and Siberians, in search of distribution patterns indicating natural selection. Judging from the wide variability in all these populations, it appears that natural selection has tended to maintain variability and the capacity of the population to adjust to changing environment. Miss Hoyme also completed a study of the history of reconstructions of Neanderthal posture, demonstrating a close correlation between the physical and psychological qualities attributed to Neanderthal man.

Zoology The crayfish family Astacidae and their ostracod commensals have occupied the research attention of head curator Horton H. Hobbs, Jr. Although most of the research time available to him has been spent in identifying the accumulation from the past of crayfishes in the National Collection, Dr. Hobbs has published several research papers; one manuscript is in press, and another four have been completed. <<>> Three of the latter are concerned with new cave-dwelling crayfishes, and the fourth, with Dr. Alejandro Villalobos, Universidad Autonoma de México, treats the crayfishes of Cuba. Dr. Hobbs has in progress a checklist of the Nearctic crayfishes, a revision of the Entocytherid ostracods of Mexico and Cuba, and, with Dr. Thomas C. Barr of the University of Kentucky, a study of the cave-dwelling crayfishes of the genus Orconectes. Mammals.—Curator David H. Johnson, continuing his research of the mammals of eastern Asia and the Pacific Islands, published two papers describing new rodents and reporting on mammals from Ponape and other islands of Micronesia. Dr. Johnson began a study of a collection recently received from the Philippines, and collaborated with J. Knox Jones, Jr., to complete a taxonomic survey of the lagomorphs and rodents in Korea. Associate curator Henry W. Setzer was engaged primarily in organizing and supervising field expeditions to collect small mammals and their ectoparasites in Madagascar and southwestern Asia in collaboration with the Research and Development Command of the Surgeon General, U.S. Army. Dr. Setzer began an extended trip abroad by a study period at the British Museum (Natural History), followed by five weeks with Col. Robert Traub’s field party in West Pakistan, and a collecting foray along the Afghanistan border of Iran with G. L. Ranck and L. M. Herman; before returning to Washington at the end of November he had stopped off in Cairo, Egypt, to consult with the officials of U.S. Naval Medical Research Unit No. 3, and had assisted the field party in Madagascar in beginning their work. Then in late February and early March, Dr. Setzer and Theodore A. Heist collected with Col. Traub’s field party on the Mexican plateau. At the museum he continued his study of Egyptian mammals collected by the Naval Medical Research Unit No. 3, and published a paper on Egyptian rodents. Associate curator Charles O. Handley, Jr., spent the first part of the year at high elevations in the Clinch Mountains of southwestern Virginia, collecting mammals with the assistance of Richard and Daniel Peacock. Between January and April he continued his primary research interest, the mammals of Panama, with the able assistance of Francis M. Greenwell, exhibits specialist in the taxidermy shop. Collections were obtained from the San Blas Coast in extreme eastern Panama, and the Bocas del Toro Archipelago and adjacent mainland near the Costa Rican boundary. The Gorgas Memorial Laboratory, as in previous years, has given important assistance to Dr. Handley’s field studies. An annotated checklist of the mammals of Panama was completed by Dr. Handley during the year. <<>> Research associate Robert Traub organized and participated in widely separated field expeditions as a part of the field program of the Department of Microbiology, University of Maryland School of Medicine. Most of September and October were occupied by collecting, with A. Dean Stock, small mammals and their ectoparasites in West Pakistan. They worked in Thailand for four weeks in October and November with a field party from the SEATO Medical Research Laboratory headed by Maj. John E. Scanlon. In February Col. Traub jomed forces with James H. Shaw to carry out a 3-months’ collecting expedition in Mexico, including the states of Veracruz, Guerrero, Mexico, Nuevo Leon, and Tamaulipas. Birds.—Curator Philip S. Humphrey continued his studies of plumage succession in birds, and in collaboration with Dr. Kenneth C. Parkes of the Carnegie Museum prepared a paper on the comparative study of plumage succession; he also continued, with Miss Ruth Billard, Connecticut Board of Fisheries and Game, a cooperative study of feather replacement in the greater scaup (Aythya marila). Drs. Parkes and Humphrey also completed a paper, now in _ press, on the plumages and systematics of the whistling heron. Galley proofs have been received for a chapter on the anatomy of waterfowl by Dr. Humphrey and George A. Clark, Jr., which will appear in the fourth and final volume of Dr. Jean Delacour’s series on the waterfowl of the world. A cooperative field study was carried out by Dr. Humphrey with the Belém Virus Laboratory, Fundacao Servico Especial de Satde Publica, and with the Museu Paraense “Emilio Goeldi,” all in Belém, Brazil. The study occupied the period between January and April and dealt with the relationship of birds to arthropod-borne virus diseases, especially eastern equine encephalitis. Nearly 1000 study skins and more than a thousand that number of anatomical specimens were prepared during the course of this field investigation. Assistant curator George A. Watson joined the staff in August and immediately began work on an illustrated “Preliminary Field Guide to the Birds of the Indian Ocean” for use by participants in the International Indian Ocean Expedition. Mr. Watson was greatly assisted in this task by the collaboration of Dr. Richard L. Zusi, University of Maine, and Dr. Robert W. Storer, University of Michigan. Continuing his researches on Aegean birds he has nearly completed his study on “Evolution and Ecology of the Birds of the Islands of the Aegean Sea.” He also finished several smaller manuscripts, as well as an important study of feather replacement; the latter paper has been summarized in Science and an extended version will be published soon. <<>> Research associate Alexander Wetmore conducted field investigations in Panama and the offshore islands from January through most of March. The first phase of the work centered on the white-winged dove colonies found last year in the mangrove swamps of the Province of Coclé; these observations are significant because elsewhere this is a bird of drier, upland localities. During this period, too, he secured interesting information on the wintering dowitchers among the migrant sandpipers and gull-billed terns. Then, in the second phase of the program, Dr. Wetmore was a guest on the motor vessel Pelican engaged in a study of the distribution of the spiny lobster, a cooperative project between the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries of the Fish and Wildlife Service agencies giving advisory assistance to the Panamanian Government. As the vessel cruised along the Pacific coast of Panama, Dr. Wetmore was able to make daily observations ashore and on offshore islands, in continuation of his survey of island birds initiated last year. Finally, several valuable days were spent in the region near the Panamanian frontier with Colombia. After several days near Puerto Obaldia, Dr. Wetmore, with mammalogist Dr. C. O. Handley, Jr., established a camp in the high forest back of Armila, the most eastern village of the Cuna Indians. Numerous species of birds were collected in mist nets, as well as by conventional hunting techniques. Three pairs of the rare ant-bird Yenornis setifrons, known previously from just five specimens, were especial prizes. Through the cooperation of the Gorgas Memorial Laboratory of Panama, Dr. Wetmore had the able services of one of their technicians, Rudolfo Hinds. Research associate Herbert G. Deignan served as ornithologist with a field party from the division of mammals in Madagascar. His “Checklist of the Birds of Thailand” is now in page proof. He also continued work on parts of Peters’ “Checklist of Birds of the World.” Research associate Oliver L. Austin, Jr., is continuing his work on the two final volumes of A. C. Bent’s “Life Histories of North American Birds.” The manuscript of one of these has now been completed and will probably go to press early in the coming year. Research assoclate Herbert Friedmann submitted a manuscript on evolutionary trends in the avian genus Clamator which has been accepted for publication in the Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections. Dr. Friedmann’s monograph “Host Relations of the Parasitic Cowbirds” appeared as U.S. National Museum Bulletin 233. Reptiles and Amphibians.—Curator Doris M. Cochran continued her study of South American frogs and described two new genera in collaboration with Dr. C. J. Goin of the University of Florida. She spent 3 months studying museum collections and in making field investigations in Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Colombia, and Panama. . <<>> Importance of the sea as a source of food is illustrated in the new hall of life in the sea. Fishes.—Curator Leonard P. Schultz has actively continued his research on sharks and has in press three papers dealing with this group and their attacks on man: With Dr. J. A. F. Garrick he has. completed a guide to the kinds of dangerous sharks of the world; his documented lst of shark attacks for the world will appear with Marilyn H. Malin as coauthor; a forthcoming volume to be published by the American Institute of Biological Sciences, entitled “Sharks and Survival,” will include a section which has been completed by Dr. Schultz on attacks by sharks as related to the activities of man. He has also completed a paper on the silver hatchetfishes of the Western Atlantic. Associate curator Ernest A. Lachner has im an advanced stage of completion studies of the families Gobiidae, Eleotridae, and Taenioididae, and of the systematics of the diskfishes, family Echenidae, and their host relationships. Since starting on active duty in January 1963, associate curator Robert H. Gibbs has continued his research on the comparative anatomy and systematics of the tuna genus Z’hwnnus, on the comparative anatomy and systematics of the family Scombridae, on the systematics and ecology of stomiatoid fishes, on the systematics of the Western Atlantic flying fishes, and on the distribution of surface fishes from the vicinity of the Gulf Stream. During the past year Dr. Gibbs participated in collecting fishes in the fresh and salt waters of Massachusetts, in the fresh waters of Alabama and Florida, and in a transect from the Gulf of Guinea to Bermuda. He has papers in press on the families Astronesthidae, Idiacanthidae, and Melanostomiatidae in volume 4 of the “Fishes of the Western North Atlantic”; and is coauthor with Dr. Norman Wilimoysky on the family Alpisauridae in volume 5. <<>> Associate curator Victor G. Springer, since joining the staff in August, has submitted four manuscripts for publication on various fish groups. He is continuing his studies on the relationships and distribution of certain gobioid fishes, preparmg a revision of the blenny genus Z'ntomacrodus and with Dr. J. A. F. Garrick conducting investigations on certain shark genera. Dr. Springer left Washington in February to participate in an oceanographic expedition to the tropical eastern Atlantic Ocean aboard the research vessel Geronimo. Although the cruise did not get beyond Bermuda because of the disablement of the ship, Dr. Springer was able to collect about 300 fish specimens before returning to Washington in mid-March. Associate curator William R. Taylor has continued his studies of the catfishes; in this connection he studied collections at Tulane University, Vanderbilt University, and the Tennessee Game and Fish Commission. He has nearly completed his revisionary study of the genus Voturus and has in preparation a manuscript on the catfish families Aspredinidae and Ariidae for the series of publications on the fishes of the Western Atlantic. Dr. Taylor participated during March and April in the International Indian Ocean Expedition as a specialist aboard the research vessel Anton Bruun, following which he returned to Washington by way of the principal scientific repositories in Europe for fish specimens at Amsterdam, Leiden, Brussels, Paris, and London. Associate curator Stanley H. Weitzman, who joined the staff in January, has continued his studies of the Asiatic minnows of the genera Aphyocypris and Tanichthys, of the South American catfishes of the genus Corydoras, and of the osteology and relationships of the South American characid fishes. On the latter two groups he has submitted manuscripts for publication. Insects.—Curator J. F. Gates Clarke made significant progress on his long-term study of the Neotropical Microlepidoptera and the representatives of this group in Micronesia. A manuscript was completed on the Neotropical genus Gonionota, and another is nearly completed on the Hyponomeutidae. The fourth volume of the publications on the Meyrick types in the British Museum (Natural History) appeared in March, and the manuscript for the fifth volume was completed this year. Dr. Clarke also completed a book for young people on North American butterflies. Dr. Clarke’s field studies in Oregon and Washington during July yielded some 7,000 specimens, among which were many novelties, as well as other previously described species, all of which will contribute much to the knowledge of the ecology and distribution of Microlepidoptera in the Pacific Northwest. <<>> Associate curator O. L. Cartwright devoted most of his research time to a revision of the scarab beetle genus Ataenius, which involved borrowing large numbers of collections from museums in Australia, Canada, and at Harvard University, as well as a visit to the Canadian national collection to study types of the scarab beetles. Associate curator Ralph E. Crabill, Jr. completed several short papers as a beginning to a complete revision of the chilopod order Geophilomorpha of the world; an investigation of the New Zealand representatives of the order was initiated this year; and a trip was made to study the chilopod types in the Museum of Comparative Zoology. Dr. Crabill spent the first three months of the year studying types and other critical specimens in museums at Munich, Vienna, Hamburg, Copenhagen, and London. During this study tour, he collected topotypical centipedes for about two weeks in the Bavarian Alps. Associate curator Donald R. Davis has nearly completed his study of the Prodoxidae, or yucca moths. As part of a large project to understand and describe the biology of the leaf-mining Lepidoptera, he collected in the Dismal Swamp of Virginia in July, obtaining 300 specimens of Microlepidoptera along with samples of leaves mined by their larvae. Associate curator William D. Field continued his studies on moths of the genus Ceramidia and initiated a research study of Vanessa, a genus of butterflies; manuscripts dealing with both genera are nearing completion. In August he spent 12 days collecting Lepidoptera along the Blue Ridge Parkway of Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina, and in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. In May he obtained a small but valuable collection of Lepidoptera in the vicinity of Lewisburg, W. Va. Associate curator W. Donald Duckworth, who reported for duty in August, completed a revision of the North American species of the moth family Stenomidae, the first exhaustive study of the Nearctic species; several manuscripts have also been completed toward a revision of the Neotropical species. In addition, research has been initiated on the Nearctic Hyponomeutidae. Associate curator Oliver S. Flint, Jr., concentrated his research on the Trichoptera, especially the Neotropical species but he has also completed several papers on the Nearctic forms. The status of many species was clarified by examination of types of older species and many of these were figured for the first time. In July Dr. Flint conducted field studies in the Dismal Swamp area of Virginia and added more than 1,000 specimens to the national collection. For 2 weeks in July-August he accomplished a vigorous <<>> field program in the West Indies, collecting more than 4,000 specimens in Jamaica and nearly 5,000 in Puerto Rico. Associate curator Paul J. Spangler joined the staff of the division in July and subsequently has been actively engaged in the preparation of a monographic revision of the water beetle genus Zropisternus. Dr. Spangler has also conducted a study of the water beetles collected in Peru by the Limnology Department of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. He also initiated a study on the adult and immature stages of the aquatic beetles of Puerto Rico, where he collected some 10,000 specimens in mid-winter. In addition to his Caribbean researches, Dr. Spangler made several field trips in the eastern States and one extensive one in South Dakota, Wyoming, and Montana, collecting more than 10,000 specimens. During a visit to the Museum of Comparative Zoology he completed several short papers. Dr. Alexey Diakonoff, eminent microlepidopterist of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, Netherlands, continued his work on Philippine and Asiatic Microlepidoptera. He will complete his studies at Leiden. Marine Invertebrates.—F ormer associate curator Donald F. Squires was appointed curator of the division on June 24, 1963, at which time former curator Fenner A. Chace, Jr., was assigned to the office of the head curator of the department of zoology as senior scientist. During July 1962, Dr. Squires conferred in Wellington with officers of the New Zealand Oceanographic Institute regarding the identification and study of deep-water coral banks, and continuations of those conferences were held with the New Zealand Geological Survey staff with reference to the occurrence of such banks as fossils. The Auckland Museum and Institute was visited, and recent collections of corals were examined. While on a lecture tour to New Zealand, advantage was taken of the opportunity to examine outcroppings of fossil deep-water coral banks at two localities in Wairarapa, and a report is being prepared on those observations in cooperation with Paul Vella of the Department of Geology, Victoria University, and with the New Zealand Geological Survey. In November, preliminary explorations were conducted, with other members of the Bahamas National Trust, of the reef tracts at Lyford Cay, New Providence Island. From March 26 to May 4, 1963, field work was carried out on R/V Chain of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, as part of the imternational Equalant I operation, in the area from Recife, Brazil, to Trinidad and east to 25 degrees west longitude. At the Museum Dr. Squires continued his studies of the zoogeography of the South Ocean corals, a program supported by the National Science Foundation. Studies of the corals of the Antarctic region, Patagonia, New Zealand, <<>> A freeze-dried crab receives its final coloring before being installed in new hall of life in the sea. and subantarctic islands are under way. A major project on the evolution and distribution of the Tertiary and extant coral faunas of New Zealand is in progress, as well as studies of adaptations of corals for life in deep waters and in those of intermediate depths. Associate curator Thomas EK. Bowman, with Juan G. Gonzalez of the University of Puerto Rico, virtually completed a report on planktonic copepods from Bahia Fosforescente, Puerto Rico, and adjacent waters. With C. D. Meyers of the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory and Steacy Hicks of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, Dr. Bowman has compiled for publication notes on the association between hyperiid amphipods and medusae in Chesapeake and Narragansett Bays and the Niantic River. He has also continued his analysis of the distribution of calanoid copepods off the southern coast of the United States. Asa participant in the International Indian Ocean Expedition from January 15 to March 17, 1963, associate curator Charles E. Cutress, Jr., visited the Indian Museum at Calcutta and studied sea anemones at Port Canning, the University of Madras, the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute at Mandapam Camp, the Porto-Novo <<>> Marine Biological Station, and the Institute of Science of the University of Bombay. In conjunction with this trip, sea anemone types were examined at the British Museum (Natural History) and anemone material was studied and collected at the Stazione Zoologica di Napoli. Specimens investigated during these visits will make possible the solution of major problems of long standing in the classification of the sea anemones. Associate curator Marian H. Pettibone, who joined the staff on March 4, 1963, has continued her study of the polychaete worms of the New England region, including the waters from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to Chesapeake Bay. She has concentrated most recently on the family Spionidae and has revised parts of that family. Museum specialist Henry B. Roberts continued his long-range studies of the comparative skeletal anatomy of the decapod crustaceans and of the importance of diagnostic characters employed in the major systems of decapod classification. Museum technician Emily C. Mandelbaum studied ostracod crustaceans in the national collections, particularly as they relate to collections made by her in Minnesota, and museum technician Maureen 2. Downey worked on starfishes in the national collections, especially those of the family Asterinidae. Research associate Waldo L. Schmitt continued the revision of the now out-of-print section on Crustaceans in the “Smithsonian Scientific Series.” He also devoted an increasing amount of time to the monographic revision of the American commensal crabs of the family Pinnotheridae. Research associate Mildred S. Wilson continued her studies on the systematics and distribution of free-living fresh and brackish-water calanoid and harpacticoid copepod crustaceans of North America. She completed two manuscripts: one, with J. C. Tash, on the genus Eurytemora in the Cape Thompson region of Alaska; the other on the harpacticoids of Nuwuk Lake, Alaska. Research and consultation during February at the Institute of Fisheries, University of British Columbia, added a large number of samples to the extensive collections already available to Mrs. Wilson. Study of the zooplankton of a nearly enclosed, large, deep lake on Vancouver Island has been completed, and a paper on the physical and biological features of the lake is being prepared with T. L. Northcote of the University of British Columbia. Work was started on zooplankton samples from the large lakes of the Bristol Bay Region of Alaska. Mrs. Wilson’s current efforts are directed chiefly toward the completion of a report on the calanoid copepod species of North American fresh and brackish waters. Research associate Ailsa M. Clark of the British Museum (Natural History) completed a manuscript on the echinoderms of Port Phillip, <<>> Australia. She also completed a review of New Zealand crinoids, but that paper will not be submitted for publication until additional material becomes available. A study of brittle stars from Japan and Sakhalin in the collection of the Munich Museum is still in progress. As in the past, the division has relied on the largely gratuitous services of specialists in other institutions for the identification of material. Grateful acknowledgment is made to the following 27 collaborators who have been willing during the past year to identify such collections, amounting to 35 shipments containing more than 20,533 specimens: Alan G. Lewis: copepod crustaceans. Raymond B. Manning: stomatopod crustaceans. J. L. Barnard: amphipod crustaceans. BE. L. Bousfield: amphipod crustaceans. Roger Cressey: copepod crustaceans. Ralph Dexter: fairy shrimps. Joseph F. Fitzpatrick, Jr.: crayfishes. J. Forest: hermit crabs. John S. Garth: cancroid crabs. Marvin C. Meyer: leeches. Patricia Ralph: hydroids. W.J. Rees: hydroids.

N.S. Jones: cumacean crustaceans. Louis 8S. Kornicker: ostracod crustaceans. Karl Lang: tanaid crustaceans. Mollusks.— Curator Harald A. Rehder occupied most of his research time with study of the marine mollusks of the Indo-Pacific region. Dr. Rehder spent two months between January and March in a field study of the mollusks on the island of Tahiti, especially those in the coastal area immediately to the east of Papeete. The results of this trip will be the basis for future field work in the southern Polynesian area. He completed a manuscript on the non-marine mollusks of Quintana Roo, Mexico, and continued his studies of the family Harpidae of which he is preparing a monograph. Associate curator Joseph P. E. Morrison made further progress on his study of the brackish-water mollusks of New Caledonia, based largely on his own collections made in 1960-61. Dr. Morrison’s study of the mollusks of the brackish waters in the Gulf States, particularly the families Hydrobiidae and Mactridae, was nearly completed at the end of the year. He completed a review of the American Siphonariidae, including a check list, a taxonomic revision, and observations on the life history of members of this family. Associate curator Joseph Rosewater spent 6 weeks in February and March at the Eniwetok Marine Biological Laboratory, Marshall Is <<>> Growing interest in oceanography makes exhibits such as this display cf coelenterates in the new hall of life in the sea both timely and educational. <<>> INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH all RNoorly all marie arthropods are crustaceans having 2 pairs of antennde. a pair of ms Which serve.es jaws, ani ke other Auch ae insects,” spid outer skelotone and join ii There are more than. 2 of minriise erusiadeaps, and they are extren dlvera forma and Aiructore.

Swallen revised his manuscript of the erasses for the flora of the Sonoran Desert, to be published by Stanford University. Dr. Swallen prepared a paper on two new species of Trichachne and Digitaria and wrote a book review of “Taxonomy of Setaria (Gramineae) in North America.” He also continued his studies of the grasses of southern Brazil, and of Trinidad and Tobago. Phanerogams.—Curator Lyman B. Smith continued his studies in the Bromeliaceae and in the flora of Brazil. Associate curator Richard S. Cowan continued his research on the leguminous genus Swartzia; much of the manuscript is now ready for the editor, illustrations have been prepared, and distributional maps have been completed. In connection with his work on the exhibits in the future hall of plant life, Dr. Cowan conducted a field 706—307—64——_6 <<>> program to collect data and materials in the desert of Baja California. Midway in the year he assumed the post of assistant director of the Museum of Natural History. Associate curator Velva E. Rudd completed a revision of the American species of Ormosia and a paper on the Acacia cornigera complex as well. In connection with her research on the Leguminosae of Mexico and Central America, Dr. Rudd spent ten days collecting in Mexico and visited important herbaria there and in the United States. She continued preparation of a floristic treatment of the papilionoid legumes of Mexico, and she also has underway a paper on the Leguminosae of the Yucatan Peninsula. Associate curator John J. Wurdack continued his researches on the Melastomataceae of the New World tropics, with particular emphasis on materials collected in Ecuador and Peru. His field studies and collecting in north Peru, which were in progress at the end of the last fiscal year, were completed in December after eight months, most of which time was spent in the region of high elevation near Chachapoyas; the field work in the last few months of the trip was along the Rio Maranon from below Pongo de Rentema to Pongo de Manseriche. Dr. Wurdack’s investigations of the family in this poorly known part of Peru and in adjacent Ecuador will be greatly facilitated by these materials, of which some are new taxa and others are of rare but previously described species. Assistant curator Stanwyn G. Shetier made biosystematic investigations of the Campanula rotundifolia complex. He completed for publication a paper on the vascular plants in the vicinity of Cape Sabine, Alaska, and a synoptical treatment of the genus Campanula in North America. At the end of the year Mr. Shetler was in the field in Alaska on an expedition, during which he planned to collect in the Brooks Range and to visit and photograph possible future study sites in which to obtain data for constructing an Alaskan botanical exhibit. Research associate José Cuatrecasas completed a revision of the genus Theobroma, from the fruit of which the cocoa of commerce is prepared. He also continued the preparation of a revision of the Colombian Compositae, which number about 800 species. Research associate Kitty F. Parker published a paper on iTymenoxys, a» genus of the Compositae, the family to which she continues to devote most of her research attention. Grasses.—Associate curator Thomas R. Soderstrom completed a study of specimens collected last year on the Kaieteur Plateau, British Guiana; the resulting manuscript included six new species. He also made, with Dr. Henry Decker, Ohio Wesleyan University, an anatomical and morphological study of a new genus, the material for which <<>> he collected in Mexico in 1958. The anatomical portion of this study, which involved comparisons with presumably closely related genera of the Aeluropodeae, raised serious questions regarding relationships within this tribe. Dr. Soderstrom also continued a revisionary treatment of the genus Zeugites. Mrs. Agnes Chase, honorary fellow, continued her work on the indexing of grass species. The “Index to Grass Species” was published in three volumes late in 1962 after many years of devoted labor by Mrs. Chase. Research associate F. A. McClure advanced his studies of the redefinition of the genera of the Bambusoideae with major attention to the bamboos of the New World. The important decision as to the taxonomic disposition of the type species of the genus Arundinaria involved an extended study, the results of which were prepared for publication. Ferns.—Curator C. V. Morton devoted most of his research time to the study of fern types, preparing a paper commenting on and re-identifying a large number of historic specimens which have remained essentially unknown or which have been variously interpreted in the past. He also continued his research with several groups of phanerogams, especially on types of Brazilian Solanaceae, and on the Gesneriaceae. A treatment of one section of the genus Achimenes was completed and published during the year, and several other papers on the Gesneriaceae describing incidental new species were also published. Cry ptogams.—Curator Mason E. Hale made very substantial progress on his study of the lichen genus Parmelia. Type specimens on loan to Dr. Hale from other herbaria have been critically examined and evaluated, and, with the collaboration of Dr. Syo Kurokawa, a manuscript was completed which included a revision of the classification of subgenus Parmelia and descriptions of 58 new species. Dr. Hale is presently completing a taxonomic study of Parmelia, subgenus Amphigymnia, which includes 106 species. Associate curator Harold Robinson completed a study of certain species of the moss genus Brachythecium in western North America, and worked with a collection of bryophytes from Assam. He conducted field studies in Mexico in December and again in May, collecting on each occasion considerable quantities of material for study. Associate curator Richard Norris, who joined the staff in December, immediately departed to participate in the International Indian Ocean Expedition. He has conducted shipboard research on nannoplankton during two cruises of the Anton Bruun. Associate curator Paul Conger continued studies of the Antarctic collections of diatoms of Sir Douglas Mawson, and his monograph of <<>> Grammatophora was further advanced. Mr. Conger has also prepa red a paper on an interesting new diatom from Hawail. Plant Anatomy.—Curator William L. Stern, accompanied by R. H. Eyde and Edward S. Ayensu, conducted a field program in Panama during February and March for the purpose of collecting fossil woods, in continuation of a research project on the fossil flora of the TonosiSantiago Basin. Fossil woods were collected on the Azuero Peninsula, particularly in the environs of the village of Oct. Mr. Ayensu completed research on the anatomy and ontogeny of the stem in the Passifloraceae under the guidance of Dr. Stern. Associate curator Richard H. Eyde completed two manuscripts on the comparative anatomy and phylogeny of the Nyssaceae. He has now expanded his research interests to include Cornaceae, Alangiaceae, and Garryaceae, families which are believed to be related to the Nyssaceae. His current study is based primarily on the anatomy of flowers and fruits, including available fossils of these parts. Research by visiting investigators.—An ever increasing number of professional people and staff members of various Government agencies make use of the facilities of the National Herbarium and the department of botany. Among those who visited the department during the past year were: John H. Beaman, I. M. Brodo, and Henry Imshaug, Michigan State Univ.; E. D.

Arthur Cooper continued his researches on the Permian brachiopods of the Glass Mountains in collaboration with Dr. R. E. Grant of the U.S. Geological Survey. The descriptive portion of their manuscript has been completed, but revision of the manuscript and illustrations will still occupy considerable time. In connection with this joint project, more than a thousand photographs Among new facilities provided by east wing is this chemistry laboratory in the division of mineralogy and petrology. have been made by Mr. Jack Scott. Drs. Cooper and Grant have also prepared a short paper on new stratigraphic terms to clarify discussions of the stratigraphy of the Glass Mountains. Mineralogy and petrology.—Curator George Switzer completed his annual review of the diamond industry and continued research on several long-term projects. During the year he visited mineralogical museums in Philadelphia, New York, Toronto, and Chicago, and attended annual meetings of several mineralogical and gem organizations. <<>> Associate curator Paul E. Desautels continued his efforts to improve contacts between the museum and sources for specimen materials for research and exhibit purposes; he attended several exhibitions of minerals and visited numerous specimen dealers, as well as private collectors; and he spoke to mineralogical societies in several cities, from the east coast to the Pacific Northwest. Chemist Roy S. Clarke, Jr., presented two papers at the Gordon Research Conference on Inorganic Chemistry. His search for chemical analytical methods for studying meteorites continued, with increased attention to studies of iron meteorites; major element analyses of the Bogou, Upper Volta, and of the Angelica, Wis., irons were completed and studies of the minor elements are currently underway. The Martha’s Vineyard tektite and its zirconia inclusion remain under cooperative study with other investigators. Associate curator E. P. Henderson, with chemist Roy S. Clarke, Jr., attended the Conference on Analytical Methods for Meteorites at the ms et Sa ae 2 geese ee Office-laboratory of curator of invertebrate paleontology in new east wing. <<>> British Museum (Natural History) early in September. At this time they were able to examine the meteorite and tektite collections in London, and to visit research institutes and universities in Delft and Utrecht in the Netherlands, in Mainz and Heidelberg in Germany, and in Copenhagen, Denmark. Mr. Henderson studied the detailed metallography and morphology of the Bogou, Upper Volta, iron meteorite; considerable attention was given to microhardness measurements of the metal phases of this body and of its inclusions of schreibersite and cohenite. Investigations of stony meteorites from Saudi Arabia, and Clovis, New Mexico, and of the Angelica, Wis., iron meteorite are in progress. Invertebrate paleontology and paleobotany.—Curator Richard S. Boardman in collaboration with Dr. John Utgaard has continued his investigations of the Paleozoic Bryozoa; basic problems of principle and technique have been re-examined with rewarding results. On the basis of sorting of about 2,000 thin-sections of poorly known Middle Ordovician Bryozoa from the Arbuckle Mountains of Southern Oklahoma Dr. Boardman finds that there are many new genera to be described, as well as new evidence for phylogenetic connection between genera; the sections were prepared by J. E. Merida of the U.S. Geological Survey and by L. Ford of the Museum staff. Dr. Boardman served as a visiting lecturer for the American Geological Institute in March, visiting the geology departments at the University of New Hampshire and Colgate University. He also attended the annual meetings of several professional geological organizations. Richard Cifelli advanced significantly his studies of planktonic Foraminifera by participating in two oceanographic expeditions. The first of these, aboard the R/V Chain, was as a participant in the International Tropical Atlantic Ocean Expedition. The Foraminifera in the nearly 100 plankton hauls taken during the five weeks’ cruise in the tropical waters of the Western Atlantic were of particular interest to Dr. Cifelli in connection with his long-range program to study the relationship between oceanic currents and the distribution of surficial planktonic forms of Foraminifera. From the standpoint of this group of organisms, Dr. Cifelli regarded as highly significant the long-cores and numerous bottom sediment samples collected from the abyssal plain, the continental slope, the Orinoco Shelf, and the Gulf of Paria. Dr. Cifelli made his second cruise on the R/V Crawford in October to collect planktonic Foraminifera; the route extended from Woods Hole, Mass., to Puerto Rico and Bermuda. Associate curator Francis M. Hueber joined the division as paleobotanist in November. In continuation of research begun as a statt member of the Geological Survey of Canada, Dr. Hueber has obtained on loan from the Survey their extensive collections of Devonian <<>> plant remains from the Gaspé region of Quebec, Canada; his program of redescribing and revising the classification of the Gaspé Devonian flora will continue here. Associate curator Porter M. Kier completed a taxonomic study of the echinoids from the Tamiami and Caloosahatchee Formations, and the cassiduloid echinoid section of the “Treatise of Invertebrate Paleontology.” Dr. Kier has also begun a revision of the systematics of the Paleozoic echinoids, including descriptions of many new forms. A particular effort is being made to discover evolutionary trends within this group, so that a more natural classification can be made. Associate curator Erle G. Kauffman in October spent two weeks studying at the U.S. Geological Survey in Denver, Colo., working on joint studies of Cretaceous pelecypods and stratigraphy with W. A. Cobban of the Survey, and making a general review of the collections A reconstruction of Stegosaurus is retouched before being installed in the hall of fossil reptiles. <<>> Various Late Cretaceous dinosaurs being set in place in the new hall by members of the paleontology laboratory staff. housed there. He also spent a week at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, examining types and biological collections of Mesozoic pelecypods, and consulting with Dr. Norman D. Newell on taxonomic problems in the group. With Drs. Yochelson and Sohl of the U.S. Geological Survey Dr. Kauffman completed a paper on collecting concretions, and another on collecting mollusks; both papers are to be included in a handbook of paleontologic techniques. He has also completed, with coauthors, three other papers on his specialties and others are underway. With museum specialist Frederick Collier, Dr. Kauffman spent six weeks completing a biostratigraphic study of the Lower Colorado Group along the Front Range of the Colorado Rockies, tracing faunal zones, refining the zonation using ammonites and pelecypods, tracing disconformities, and changes in facies. They were able to correlate sixty detailed stratigraphic sections along the Front Range with sections in northern New Mexico and southern Wyoming, as well as with intermontane parts of the middle Rockies. Approximately 4,000 specimens were collected, predominantly pelecypods and ammo <<>> nites. Dr. Kauffman, with Dr. Norman Sohl of the U.S. Geological Survey, also made short excursions to the Upper Cretaceous outcrops of Maryland, as part of a continuing survey of this rich but incompletely known fauna. Large collections from near Brightseat, Md., include many species previously unreported from the Cretaceous of the Middle Atlantic Coast, particularly species of gastropods. Museum specialist Frederick Collier is studying the rhomboporoid Bryozoa of some Middle Devonian strata of New York State for a master’s thesis at George Washington University under the direction of Dr. Boardman. The specimens which form the basis for this study were collected on a 3-weeks’ trip in May. Vertebrate paleontology.—Curator C. lL. Gazin continued his morphological study of the early Eocene condylarthran J/eniscotherium, particularly its peculiar geographic and stratigraphic distribution within the Wyoming-Colorado-New Mexico area. This has led to a systematic review of the composition of the associated local faunas and of the character of contemporary faunas lacking this precociously selenodont genus, together with consideration of the character of the sediments involved in each case.

In connection with his studies Dr. Gazin visited Princeton University, the American Museum of Natural History, and Yale University’s Peabody Museum. He also attended meetings of various professional organizations, and he again served in the National Research Council as chairman of the Earth Sciences Committee for the evaluation of applications to the National Science Foundation for postdoctoral fellowships. Associate curator D. H. Dunkle returned to the Museum in December after a 2-years’ detail in Pakistan for the U.S. Geological Survey. Since then he has nearly completed the description of a previously unrecognized amioid fish from the marie Upper Cretaceous Niobrara formation of western Kansas. Several new occurrences of the specialized antiarch fish Bothriolepis were noted among collections referred for identification by the U.S. Geological Survey; a note to report these was prepared because, as an infallible indicator of <<>> freshwater environments of Upper Devonian age, Bothriolepis is of great paleotectonic usefulness. Associate curator Nicholas Hotton III embarked on a systematic morphological study of the suborder Dicynodontia, the herbivorous therapsid reptiles of South Africa. Preliminary work, based upon specimens collected in 1961 which are now completely prepared, indicates that the suborder may be divided into at least two major adaptive types; their morphology is being compared in the expectation The third in a series of four paleontological murals by Jay H. Matternes, this scene depicts Miocene mammalian life in the new hall of fossil mammals. that it will shed light on the ecological relationships of the dicynodonts. Since remote ancestors of the mammals are included among contemporary relatives of the dicynodonts, this work will perhaps also contribute to the understanding of the ecological context of mammahan origins. Dr. Hotton, with J. W. Kitching of the Bernard Price Institute in Johannesburg, South Africa, in October carried on field work in a variety of formations ranging in age from Permian to Oligocene in South Dakota, Wyoming, New Mexico, and Texas. Much of the <<>> material obtained was sent to the Bernard Price Institute, partly in return for the excellent South African Beaufort material that Dr. Hotton collected the preceding year with the assistance of Mr. Kitching. In addition to the field work, Dr. Hotton and Mr. Kitching visited geological centers at the Chicago Museum of Natural History, the University of Colorado, and the U.S. Geological Survey offices at Denver. Dr. Remington Kellogg, research associate and retired Director of the U.S. National Museum, has undertaken studies concerned with an interpretation of the developmental history of the mysticetes, the suborder of whales characterized by the presence of blades of whalebone or baleen in the upper jaws. The Mysticeti are represented in recent faunas by several genera which are fairly well characterized by cranial differences and by a rather large number of fossil forms ranging in age from Oligocene to and including the Pleistocene, but, unfortunately, many are based on scanty remains. Commencing with the more generalized cetacean skull and noting the modifications that have occurred in the course of geologic time, it becomes apparent that the possibilities for remodeling the cetacean cranium involves many cranial bones. Various types of telescoping of the bones, with the various intermediate stages, are being examined in an effort to determine the underlying cause for such remodeling trends. Research by visiting investigators.—The division of invertebrate paleontology and paleobotany had 64 American and foreign visitors during the year, 82 of whom came to study the collection of Foraminifera. Approximately 40 paleontologists outside the Museum are currently working on undescribed specimens from the collections. Among the other visiting investigators, in addition to staff members from Federal agencies, who worked in the department of geology during the year were: Dr. A. F. Leanza, Argentina; A. Fatmi, Pakistan; Dr. A. A. Opik, Bureau of Mineral Resources, Canberra, Australia; Dr. Darcy Closs, Porto Alegre, Brazil; Dr. C. W.

Oceanography Dr. I. E. Wallen, assistant director for oceanography, actively continued the development of an oceanography program for the Institution, facilitating and assisting in the organization of oceanographic field work by staff members in the departments of zoology, botany, and geology. The establishment and functioning of the Smithsonian Oceanographic Sorting Center is perhaps the most important single accomplishment of the first year of the oceanography program. The Sorting Center is designed to provide assistance of several kinds to taxonomic specialists both in Federal and non-Federal establishments. A principal function is to sort to a practical taxonomic level the multitude of plants and animals collected on oceanic cruises. Upon request of the collector, the Sorting Center arranges with specialists in various groups to identify the collections. It also acts as a center for receiving and systematically organizing taxonomic and ecological data which may have particular value to marine ecologists and biogeographers. Dr. H. Adair Fehlmann is supervisor of the Sorting Center, which was in the charge of his assistant, Mrs. Beatrice L. Burch, until his arrival in mid-June. Museum specialist La Nelle Peterson and five museums aids complete the professional staff. <<>> To give the staff practice in receiving, sorting, accessioning, and record-keeping, the technicians of the Sorting Center processed fourteen accessions, consisting of 2,371 lots of over 68,460 specimens, from the Museum of Natural History. In addition, valuable material received from the Geological Survey and the Lamont Geological Observatory is being sorted for distribution to appropriate specialists. The Center is particularly fortunate to have the advisory services of Dr. J. H. Wickstead, marine biologist from the Laboratory of Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom at Plymouth, England. At the end of the year Dr. Wickstead began a 3-months’ period during which he will assist in the training of technicians in the sorting, and the care and preservation of plankton received from the various expeditions. He will also provide guidance to the organizing of this new facility. Staff participation in specific research projects and oceanographic research cruises are treated in the reports of the departments of the Museum of Natural History involved in the oceanography program.

The provisions of the act of June 28, 1955, authorized the construction of a building for a Museum of History and Technology, established the joint congressional committee to advise the Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institution during the planning and construction of the building, and required that the joint congressional committee submit a report annually on the progress of construction. On May 19, 1963, the Smithsonian Institution took occupancy of the first completed space in the Museum of History and Technology Building. In this space, accepted from the contractor by the General Services Administration and offered to the Smithsonian Institution, Smithsonian personnel are now installing exhibits. The contract provides for partial occupancy in advance of completion, without prejudice to the requirement that all elements of the building be completed as specified in the contract. This procedure was planned from the start in order to minimize the time between completion of the building and its opening to the public. It is expected that the exhibits will be installed in a sufficient number of exhibition halls to permit the building to be dedicated and opened to the public early in 1964. The date and arrangements for this opening will bs determined by the Chancellor of the Smithsonian Institution, the chairman of the joint congressional committee, and the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. The exhibits in this impressive museum building will place before an estimated 5 million visitors each year from all the States in the American Union an inspiring exposition depicting the development of the way of life from early times down to the present day, commemorating our national heritage. When the exhibits are completely installed, the visitor entering the first floor from Constitution Avenue will find exhibits showing significant advances made in science, engineering, and manufactures. Famous inventions and patent models, such as Slater’s spinning frame, Whitney’s cotton gin, Henry’s electromagnet, Morse’s telegraph, Howe’s sewing machine, Duryea’s automobile, Stevens’ steamboat engine, Shole’s typewriter, Edison’s electric lamp and generator, and Thomson’s electric welder, will be shown with many other original examples of the inventions and scientific discoveries made up to the present. <<>> Entering on the second floor directly on the level of the Mall, the visitor will see in the central hall the original Star-Spangled Banner. This great flag, originally measuring 42 feet by 30 feet, inspired Francis Scott Key to compose the words of our national anthem. He saw it in the “‘rockets’ red glare” over Fort McHenry during the defense of Baltimore in the War of 1812. The flag is recognized by many to be the most important historical museum object in the United States. Nearby will be a number of halls offering chronological displays of the homes, weapons, tools, dress, and activities of our forebears. Treasures, such as Washington’s sword and field equipment, the desk at which Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence, a printing press at which Franklin worked, and the uniform coat worn by Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans, will be shown in proper context with tradesmen’s tools, the products of manufactures and farm industries, vehicles, and engineering structures to trace the evolution of our history. In other halls complete rooms will show furnishings and the decorative arts of many periods. Original gowns worn by all of the First Ladies will be shown in settings constructed in part of original paneling and furnished with original furniture from the White House rooms they represent. The Armed Forces exhibits on the floor above will display original weapons, uniforms, flags, vehicles, warship models, dioramas, prints, paintings, and maps to trace the chronological development of our Army, Navy, and Air Force and to show their contributions to the defense and development of the country in war and peace. Elsewhere on this floor will be exhibits of the graphic arts, including fine prints, printing presses and composing machines, early cameras and photographs, musical instruments, and ceramics and glass. The national collection of postage stamps will be combined with exhibits on the history of the postal service and the production of stamps. The Smithsonian’s outstanding collection of coins and examples of medallic art will be shown with an original display of the history of money. Over 50 exhibition halls eventually will be filled with collections of important objects, many of which have of necessity been in storage for years at the Smithsonian Institution. On the floors above will be located the extensive study reference collections of some 800,000 objects which will for the first time be conveniently available to students, historians, and members of the public with special interests. Adjacent to these collections will be the workrooms of expert staff members engaged in documentation and research related to these stored objects. Study of this sort is necessary in helping scholars who are writing American history and in assisting the public in the identification of objects of interest and value from the past. In this way Americans can come to know the true story of the general history and the development of technology in this country’ Procress or Construction SINCE Juty 1961 During the past year the building was brought to 99 percent of completion. Exterior marble facing, cornices, and parapets; granite terrace paving; windows and exterior doors; lighting standards throughout the grounds; sidewalks around the building; and flagpoles were completed. The construction fence has been removed and the grounds have been graded and seeded. <<>> Most interior areas of the building are nearly completed. Partitions and ceilings have been erected, lathed, and plastered; floors were laid and finished; built-in cases were completed; grid ceilings hung; ceiling panels, lighting fixtures, and diffusers installed; and machinery and fan rooms completed. Escalators and elevators have been installed; and decorative wall finishes applied; and walis and ceilings painted throughout. Work is progressing in the few areas still incomplete, including the Flag Hall and the cafeteria. Work on additional items as approved by the joint committee at its meeting on June 15, 1962 (see S. Rept. 1702, 87th Cong., 2d sess., July 10, 1962), is progressing. ‘The full cost of these items is covered by the initial appropriation for the building. New exhibits arrangements of the collections have been prepared for most of the new halls. These have been planned to include frequent arrangements in which free-standing objects will be lighted with eye-catching effect to assist the viewer in identifying significant exhibits. Installation is proceeding in the limited part of the building finished at this time and when the building is completed, installation will proceed concurrently in other halls. After the dedication of the building, it will remain open to permit the visiting public to see the finished halls while installation continues in others. As considerable interest has been expressed in what the individual halls will contain when completed, the following amplification of the above summary is provided. The visitor entering the first floor of the Museum of History and Technology will find the Hall of Farm Machinery an excellent place to begin his tour. The basic technology of farming will be illustrated by a selection of the tools and machines that have been developed over many centuries. Hand sickles, cradle scythes, sieves, and winnowing fans will be contrasted with the mechanical reapers and threshers. The theme of the exhibits will be the mechanization of farming which took place largely in the 19th century and has distinguished American farming for more than 100 years. A large horsedrawn harvester-thresher of 1886 which accomplished all of the harvesting tasks while moving through the fields will represent an early peak in mechanization. A series of the plows used in America from the middle of the 18th century will illustrate the changes made in the shape of the plow and the transition from iron-sheathed wood plows to those of steel. One exhibit will show how Thomas Jefferson applied his scientific mind and practical knowledge to develop a more efficient plow and then published a method by which any farmer of his time could reproduce it with the tools commonly owned on the farm. Colorful self-propelled steam engines which supplied belted power to the old threshers and other farm machines will be shown with the gasoline and diesel tractors which pull and power large farm equipment. The Forest Products Hall adjoining the Farm Machinery Hall will exhibit the tools of lumbering and the manufacturing methods of forest-based industries. An animated map will indicate the forest <<>> resources of the United States at various periods of time and illustrate how forests now are being replanted and harvested as a long-term crop. A typical exhibit will illustrate the evolution of the American ax with a heavy poll form the European poll-less ax in use for many centuries. A full-size element from a waterpowered sawmill which was in use in the late 18th and early 19th centuries will be compared with models of a steam sawmill and a modern gang sawmill. The methods and the equipment of the large wood users, such as plywood manufactures and the wood pulp industries, will be shown. The history of the use of wood in construction will be brought up to date with models of house framing and heavy timber structures. An exhibit on wooden ship construction and another on “naval stores,” such as pine tar, turpentine, masts, spars, ship timbers, and planking wa introduce the visitor to the exhibits of watercraft in the adjoining all. 3. WATERCRAFT It is appropriate that the visitor will pass from the exhibits of agriculture and forest products to the Watercraft Hall. The early eminence of American shipbuilding was based in part upon the country’s timber resources. The movement of farm crops by water was of great early importance and continues to be significant today. The Watercraft Hall will trace the development of American merchant vessels from colonial times. The Smithsonian’s unparalleled series of models will be the basis of the exhibits. In addition to the accurate, authentic, and mostly contemporary scale models; prints, paintings, and occasional original elements of watercraft will add interest to the exhibits. ‘These collections which are known to marine historians and architects as a prime source of historical and technical information will be adequately displayed for the first time. They will trace the evolution of sail, steam, and motor vessels of all kinds in exhibits of fishing vessels, fishing boats, seagoing cargo and passenger ships, river and lakes vessels, vessels of all of our coasts, and local watercraft from all maritime areas of the United States. Fast topsail schooners, famous clipper ships, paddle wheel steamboats of the Mississippi and Long Island Sound, and Great Lakes and gulf coast types, will be represented among many others in exhibits which will relate the development of their design to the requirements of the waters and the trades in which they sailed. The group of halls exhibiting the technology of transportation continues with the Hall of Automobiles, Carriages, and Coaches. In this hall the many American contributions to the invention and development of vehicles will be emphasized. Three fine examples of early handcrafted vehicles will be seen: a chaise of 1770, a two-wheel gig which traveled from the Eastern Shore of Maryland to New England just before the Revolutionary War, and a family coachee of 1810. The visitor will see a stagecoach that was built in 1848 in the shops of Lewis Downing at Concord, N.H. This coach is believed to be the oldest of the hundreds of ‘Concord’ coaches supplied to stagelines in all parts of the country for local transport beyond the lines of the early railroads. A fine example of carriage building of the same period will be seen in <<>> the Lawrence family coach built by Thomas Goddard of Boston in 1851. A city omnibus and a fine “piano box”’ buggy are included. A detailed collection of high wheel and early ‘‘safety’’ bicycles will be exhibited with an account of the importance of the bicycle in fostering the demand for personal transportation, in promoting good roads, and in developing inventors and manufacturers who later were the pioneers in the automobile and aircraft industries. The Smithsonian’s small, but fine, collection of automobiles will illustrate the rapid evolution of automobile design and manufacture from the pioneer American vehicles of the 1890’s. A mile-a-minute racer of 1902 and the original Vanderbilt Cup will emphasize the importance of international contests in developing the engineering design of early automobiles. An original heavy truck of 1930 with a number of truck models will illustrate the growth of the American trucking industry which, today, operates over 12 million vehicles. 5. RAILROADS The period of steam railroad building and operation in the United States will be traced in exhibits of full-size locomotives and accurate, documented, scale models. The locomotive ‘Sturbridge Lion,” brought from Sturbridge, England, in 1829 to be the first steam locomotive to run on an American railroad built for commercial use, will be exhibited with the wood-burning, passenger-service locomotive the “Pioneer,” built in 1851, and the 188-ton ‘‘Number 1401,” a Pacific-type locomotive of 1926. Original elements from the early diesel locomotives and a section of a diesel-electric locomotive power unit will be shown. A model of a locomotive building plant of the mid-19th century will illustrate the early practice of the manufacturin techniques of component fabrication and assembly. An origina full-size cable car from Seattle will be exhibited on a section of rail and cable conduit illustrating the method of operation of the cable car system. Other street railway developments will be shown by models and illustrations, including rapid transit systems, such as the elevated and the monorail. Adjoining the Railroad Hall is the Hall of Civil Engineering which will feature exhibits illustrating the evolution of bridge and tunnel building. Among the engineering marvels of all ages are the structures built to carry highways and, later, railroads over or under rivers and bays. The exhibits of bridge models will explain more graphically than any other collections in the Smithsonian the interrelation between the progress made in new materials of construction and the advances in design which the new materials made possible. Stone and wood construction gave way to cast-iron, wrought iron, and steel, as spans became longer and design more advanced. Exhibits will include structural elements and show the techniques of erecting arch, cantilever, truss, and suspension bridges. A number of American bridge builders will be represented by original contemporary models collected from their design offices and from the engineering departments of universities. The Smithsonian’s excellent collections of contemporary engineering prints will add graphically to the exhibits. <<>> The methods of tunneling in rock and soft ground will be explained with sectionalized models of important tunnels. Full-scale examples of the timbering systems used to support the workings of soft-ground tunnels in the 19th century will frame exhibits of original tunneling tools and equipment. In the Hall of Heavy Machinery, original large engines will illustrate the progress made in substituting great power devices for the muscles of men and animals. Steam boilers, engines, and turbines will show how the energy of fuels, such as wood, coal, and oil, is converted and applied to useful work through the agency of steam. Water wheels, hydraulic turbines, steam engines, and steam turbines will memorialize and explain the work of America’s great inventors in these fields: Evans, Francis, Stevens, Corliss, Curtiss, and many others. Exhibits of original patent models of internal combustion engines will include those of Drake, Brayton, and Otto. Diesel engines and gas turbines will illustrate more recent developments. Animated models and diagrams will explain the cycles through which these machines operate to convert the energy of water, coal, or petroleum to mechanical work. Many of the original machines will be shown in motion and others will start at the push of a button. Two related and primary uses of power are illustrated in exhibits of machines for pumping and refrigeration. Early engine-driven com- Tessors on their condensers will illustrate the principle of the rebeeen cycle. A hydraulic turbine turned by a stream of water will drive an oil pump used to lubricate the huge machines of a hydroelectric plant. An early steam-electric generator unit will guide the visitor to the Hall of Electricity. The Hall of Electricity will exhibit original apparatus to trace the pioeres of the science and the technology of electricity. Joseph enry, first Secretary of the Smithsonian, was an important contributor to both. He was the codiscoverer of the induced electrical current, the discoverer of self-induction and a pioneer in applying the principles of the electromagnet. Instruments left by Henry, apparatus used by Priestly in the 18th century, Henry Rowland’s apparatus of the 19th century, and the original tube with which the Nobel Prize winners Davisson and Germer demonstrated the “optical” character of electron beams, will illustrate the scientists’ progress in understanding the fundamental nature of electricity. The development of electrical machines and instruments will be shown with original dynamos of Farmer, Wallace, Siemens, and others. Two early dynamos by Edison and Westinghouse, contemporary with the contest between direct current and alternating current proponents late in the 19th century, will run continuously. The application of the technology of the electromagnet in wired communication will be illustrated with Morse’s original telegraph instruments of 1837 and the patent model of Bell’s telephone. The technology of electromagnetic radiation will be traced from an operating reproduction of Hertz’ apparatus of 1886-88, through a comprehensive display of <<>> radio equipment. The original standby duplicate of Telstar will indicate the pace of present-day developments. After the visitor has seen the evolution of power devices and their application to land and water transportation, he will pass to the Hall of Tools. Here he will see how machine tools, which developed from the ideas embodied in ancient hand tools, employ the tireless energy of motors and engines to shape materials, increase productivity, and contribute to a high standard of living. The long march toward automation from the 16th century to the present will be described in exhibits including Thomas Blanchard’s gunstock lathe of 1820 and an operating model of an automobile assembly line. Exhibits of actual machine tools will illustrate the basic machining operations of drilling, boring, turning, planing, milling, and grinding. A visitor-operated film will show these operations in color with sound. The free-standing machine tools which explain the development will be operated to demonstrate their functions. A reconstructed pre-Civil War machine shop will be equipped with the oldest and best of the museum’s collection of machine tools. These also will be operated. The extensive collections of antique hand tools will be exhibited in displays representing such ancient trades as the blacksmith, wheelwright, cooper, and pump maker. A large exhibit on the history of precision measuring devices will include original sets of standards and the apparatus for optical measurements. The Hall of Light Machinery will exhibit the evolution of clocks and watches, the typewriter, the phonograph, and locks. Exhibits of these objects will illustrate how their development derived from the skills and techniques of clock and instrument makers. The introduction to exhibits of sundials and other early timekeepers will be a globe demonstrating the rotation of the earth as the original timekeeper. Sandglasses, water clocks, and time lamps will illustrate the progress made before the clock. ‘The development and refinement of mechanical clocks will be traced through the work of Galileo, Huygens, Robert Hooke, George Graham, David Rittenhouse, Eli Terry, and others. The first chronometer made in America will be shown in the original shop in which it was made, with the tools used in chronometer making. ‘The development of the factory system and the introduction of automation will be illustrated in exhibits of the clocks and watches produced by these systems. ‘The central exhibit of the hall will be a clock tower with civil, astronomical, and automaton dials actuated by an American tower clock of 1796. Other exhibits in the Light Machinery Hall will include machines derived from the skills and techniques developed by clock and instrument makers. They will trace the development of the phonograph from Thomas Edison’s original invention through the work of Alexander Graham Bell’s Volta Laboratory and of later workers. This will include original apparatus presented by Bell who was a Regent of the Smithsonian. Exhibits on the development of the typewriter will trace the history of the development of writing machines with sufficient speed and <<>> legibility to be useful in correspondence and record keeping. Original machines and patent models include those of Sholes and of many inventors before and after him. Locks from Egyptian and Greek times to the present will trace the constant improvement in security utilizing new materials as they develop as well as increasingly subtle engineering concepts. Here also patent models of most of the significant inventions will be shown. ‘Throughout the area the exhibits will emphasize the artistic expression of the craftsmen. Exhibits in the Hall of Physics will illustrate the story of the development of the sciences of physics, astronomy, and mathematics. It will lead the visitor chronologically to the beginning of nuclear physics and to the nearby Hall of Nuclear Energy. The exhibits in the Hall of Physics start with a section on early science and continue its evolution through the Greek period to the scientific revolution of the 17th century. Early science will be explained in exhibits on the Egyptian land surveyors, the oracle bones used by the Chinese for divination, early mapmaking, the mathematical clay tablets of the Babylonians, and primitive devices for astronomical observation. An operating model of the famous water clock of Ctesibius will be included in this exhibit. There will be exhibits of Islamic and medieval science, including full-scale replicas of the armillary sphere and quadrant designed and used by Tycho Brahe. The finest examples of antique scientific instruments will include astrolabes, orreries, and gunnery and surveying instruments. The scientific revolution and its effects will be demonstrated in exhibits showing 17th century advances in the sciences of astronomy, mechanics, optics, and pneumatics. Original apparatus used by important physicists will be combined with graphic explanations and pushbutton-operated demonstrations. A reconstruction of Benjamin Pike’s 19th century New York instrument shop will display original apparatus used for teaching the sciences in American colleges in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. A scene of the survey made of the District of Columbia in 1791 by Andrew Ellicott will include original surveying and astronomical instruments owned by Ellicott and used by him on this survey. Exhibits of original apparatus relating to calculation in science, applied physics, optics, astronomy, and classical physics at the end of the 19th century will introduce the visitor to the Hall of Nuclear Energy, nearby. Coming to the Hall of Nuclear Energy from the Hall of Physics, the visitor will be astonished to learn how recent are the discoveries that support today’s concept of the structure of matter. Exhibits will show the advances made in the closing years of the 1890’s in the understanding of electromagnetic waves, radioactivity, X-rays and the electron. The Hall of Nuclear Energy will present in detail the story of the major experiments which contributed to this concept. The Geissler tube, a fundamental tool in this research in the discoveries of the electron, the nucleus, the neutron, and the proton, will be demonstrated alongside replicas of some of the original apparatus used. The observation of isotopes and the final realization of the practicability of “splitting <<>> the atom’ will be explained in exhibits of the work of Rutherford, Fermi, and others. ‘The first controlled nuclear fission by Fermi, achieved in 1942, will be commemorated by a replica of his first atomic pile built at Chicago University, reproduced with materials from the original. The hall will show the main lines of modern atomic research: the development of the first Van de Graaff accelerator (the original of which will be installed) leading to Lawrence’s cyclotron and the giant synchrocyclotrons. ‘The creation of new elements by means of these accelerators will be explained. ‘Tools and instruments will illustrate the adaptation of our knowledge of isotopes to practical, day-to-day service in industry and medicine. Models of reactors will show the way in which the power inherent in nuclear reactions has been controlled for the service of mankind. Modern developments, such as the direct production of electricity from nuclear energy, will be shown with actual examples of the equipment. The ways in which the hysicist can observe atomic phenomena will be shown in exhibits of his major tools. Progress towards applying the energy of thermonuclear fusion to peaceful applications will be illustrated by actual equipment used in historic experiments. In the Hall of Chemistry, as in the adjoining Hall of Physics, the visitor will be able to follow further the scientists’ historical quest for knowledge. Exhibits will describe the tools and laboratories of the medieval alchemists, the work of the chemists who followed them, and the chemical revolution brought about by Lavoiser and others late in the 18th century. The original apparatus and instruments employed by the early experimenters will be augmented by reproductions of the laboratories in which they worked. These will include the laboratory of Joseph Priestly about 1790, the lecture room of Robert Hare about 1830, and the laboratory of Ira Remsen of 1890. Other exhibits will show the progress made in analytical apparatus and the instrumentations of the laboratory. Working models and original early products of chemical plants will illustrate the contributions of the chemical engineer and his predecessors. The Textile Machinery and Fiber Hall will show the evolution of man’s efforts to make materials of plant and animal fibers from prehistoric times to the present. It will supplement well the First Ladies Hall and the Hall of Costume because it will demonstrate how dress fabrics themselves and many other textiles are created. It will also demonstrate how the techniques of textile production have changed through the years. The visitor will begin by looking at spindles recovered by archeologists from the sites of early human habitations. He then will see the development of more and more effective machinery for the manufacture of textiles. Some notable “firsts” will be shown, for example, the actual model made by Whitney himself of the cotton gin and the first American spinning frame constructed by Slater in Rhode Island in the 18th century. Visitors will see a most rare and beautiful dress made years ago entirely of silk from silkworms grown in American—the silk fibers processed in <<>> America and then hand sewn in America. Modern synthetic metallic and glass fibers and a wide variety of the textiles and textile machines that have made possible the modern multiplicity of industrial and decorative fabrics will be included in the displays. One of the notable exhibits of this hall is a Jacquard loom more than a century and a half old which has been put in perfect working order. This wonderful punch-card device weaves tapestries and patterned brocades without requiring a laborious setting by human hands. In this textile hall there will be many typical forms of textiles arranged so that each visitor may touch and feel them. Experts in textiles know that only by feeling fabrics can the visitor actually gain a satisfactory knowledge of different types of materials. Adjacent to the exhibits just described, another area, the Hall of Textile Processing, will display textiles used in human clothing, household decoration, and many industrial functions. This hall will show the history of sewing machines and other devices used in processing the textiles of civilization. Here one will also see illustrated the different types of dyeing and printing that have been used through the years for the embellishment of textiles and collections of great textile types such as lace and embroidery. No one who thinks of our modern world can fail to realize the role that the sewing machines of factory and home have played in the emancipation of women from monotonous toil. The collection of these interesting and effective machines at the Smithsonian is one of the best in the world. The thoughtful visitor who studies them learns not only a mechanical but also a sociological lesson of importance. Exhibits in the Hall of Medical History will display the development of surgical technique from ancient to modern times. Early trephining and other surgical instruments will be combined with a diorama of an 1805 surgical operation performed by Dr. Philip Syng Physick in the circular room amphitheater of the Pennsylvania Hospital. Diagnostic instruments such as stethoscopes, endoscopes, speculums, and bloodpressure measuring devices will be exhibited with a series of microscopes illustrating the development of these instruments. Exhibits of original gcalvanometers and other apparatus will trace the development of cardiography and the early use of anesthesia will be shown by apparatus of the American pioneers, William Morton and his contemporary, Crawford W. Long. The development of the devices of modern medicine and surgery will be shown by exhibits of the iron lung, and X-ray tubes, including one tube used by W. C. Roentgen. Medicine chests and surgical kits of different periods will be graphic summaries of the state of medical sciences in the times they represent. Exhibits on the development of dentistry and dental surgery with examples of drilling machines, tooth filling, and extracting tools will be displayed. In addition, dental offices of famous dentists, such as G. V. Black and the father of American orthodontia, Dr. Edward H. Angle, will be reconstructed with their original equipment and instruments, <<>> Exhibits in the Pharmacy Hall will feature the reconstruction of two shops. An 18th century European apotheka, originally from Germany, will be shown complete with a very elegant collection of drug jars, decorated medicinal bottles, wooden containers, balances, mortars and pestles, nested weights, and other tools, portraits, franchises, and documents pertaining to the apothecary art of its time and place. A late 19th century American drugstore will have its shelves filled with patent medicines, cosmetics, chemicals, and drug containers of various sizes and shapes. Its window will be complete with handsome colored show globes. The development of antibiotics will be represented with exhibits of the early utensils and machines used in the manufacture of these ‘‘miracle drugs,” including a mold and apparatus received from the discoverer of penicillin, Sir Alexander Fleming (1881-1955). The preparation and manufacturing of drugs will be illustrated with exhibits of original machines such as tablet and capsule machines and drug mills and percolators. The Smithsonian’s collection of materia medica, thought to be the largest, will be shown in an exhibit on the ‘‘A to Z” of crude drugs and their origins. A typical exhibit will illustrate the role of cinchona and antimalaria drugs in the fight against disease. A comprehensive exhibit of weights and balances will be placed adjacent to the Hall of Chemistry. It will include examples of ancient and modern weights and balances used in many countries of the world. Years ago, upon representations of national medical associations, the Smithsonian established a Hall of Health. In 1957, this hall was renovated and constructed to be moved intact to the Museum of History and Technology when the new space there has been completed. This modern Health Hall will present the basic anatomical and physiological processes of human beings as they are known to modern science. ‘The hall will show something of the mechanisms by means of which electronics and other technologies assist the physician in measuring and recording the human heart beat, blood pressure, respiration, visual and auditory acuity, and the like. Here the visitor will watch his own heart beat on a cathode-ray tube by holding a receiver on his chest. In this hall will be located a fascinating transparent human figure which, by a series of lights and a concomitant electronically reproduced lecture, will show in a vivid and accurate way the principal organ systems of the human frame and how they work. The machine fabrication of articles of everyday use began early in our history, and the large-scale production of nails, screws, needles, buttons, wire, cooking utensils, and many other common articles, which could be marketed cheaply and widely, has always been a characteristic of the American economy. Exhibits in the Hall of General Manufactures will show the evolution of special purpose manufacturing machines. One series of original machines will trace the evolution of the manufacture of the common wood screw. A <<>> pioneer eyelet machine of 1865 will introduce another series showin the evolution of transfer presses capable of precision forming of meta parts. The contrast between these machines and some early singleaction stamp presses will emphasize the great gains in productivit which followed the mechanization of basic steps in machining, suc as mechanically feeding the metal blanks to the machine and automatically controlling the cutting and forming tools. An original slide fastener made by the inventor, Whitcomb Judson, in 1896 is part of an exhibit illustrating how the general introduction of this useful device waited upon the development of machines capable of manufacturing it. How this was achieved will be demonstrated by tracing the changes in techniques of production of all kinds of fasteners. An early peddler’s wagon filled with pots, pans, lanterns, notions, and tableware will recall the simple art of the tinsmith and exemplify the volume and variety of manufactured goods long available in the United States. The importance of energy resources will be illustrated in the Smithsonian in exhibits of power machinery, electric power, coal mining, and nuclear energy. Nowhere is the reliance upon fuel energy better exemplified than in the Hall of Petroleum. The exhibits will illustrate the history of the advances made in the technology of prospecting, well drilling, and the refining of petroleum. The methods used by the geologist and geophysicist to locate and prove the Nation’s oil reserves, in pace with the ever-increasing demand, will be illustrated by a wide variety of survey equipment, including many historic items evolved to meet the special needs of the petroleum industry. The development of drilling methods, from the time of Drake’s original discovery in 1859, will be shown by models and actual equipment. The development and application of techniques required to stimulate and maintain the flow of crude oil from wells will be shown. The history of oil refining methods will illustrate the progress from the kerosene era to modern high octane gas. The original experimental still of Burton and Humphries which led to the first large-scale thermal cracking of crude petroleum and a model of a polymerization plant, one of the earliest processes for increasing the octane rating of gasoline, will be included. ‘The significance of petroleum as a source of raw materials for synthetics of all kinds will also be shown by a model of a modern petrochemical plant. The history of production and distribution will be summarized in a large map of the United States. Coal is the source of vast amounts of the energy required to maintain the industrial strength of the United States. In the Coal Hall, the exhibits will begin with the origins of our great resources of coal. Actual fossils of the plants from which coal was formed and a dinosaur track from a coalbed in Utah will dramatize the geologic history of coal formations. Examples of the many varieties of brown, bituminous, and anthracite coals will be shown with explanations of how they differ in origin and use. Tools, machines, and models will illustrate the evolution of mining methods from pick and shovel to modern coal cutting and loading machines. The development of mine safety <<>> measures will be traced with exhibits of timbering, ventilating, safety lamps, gas detectors, and self-rescue equipment. Models and schematic drawings will show the recent progress being made in mining methods including the system of mining by television controlled machines directed from above the ground. Other exhibits will explain the research and experimentation undertaken to convert coal to gaseous or liquid fuels while it is in the ground. In many halls throughout the museum, the visitor will see repeated the transition from technologies based on wood, in which machine frames, heavy equipment, and even gearing were made of wood, to the engineering machines and structures in which iron and steel predominate. The Hall of Iron and Steel will illustrate the development of methods for the production and fabrication of these basic commodities. The exhibits will begin with the methods used at the Saugus, Mass., iron works of 1644 and proceed to illustrate the progress in blast furnace techniques, and in forging and rolling methods to the period of the Civil War. The growth of large-scale steel production after the war, following the introduction of the Bessemer and openhearth processes, will be shown with special emphasis on American adaptations and development of these methods. Because of the large size of iron and steel manufacturing equipment, many of these developments will be explained by models and explanatory charts. Historic original objects, such as one of the first steam hammers to be installed in this country, an original electric arc furnace, and a puddling furnace, will be shown. The major changes in the methods of rolling steel and preparing it for use in construction and for consumer goods will be illustrated, including tin plating and porcelain enameling. Modern foundry methods will be shown in the form of a scale model, as will important recent innovations, such as the oxygen process of making steel. The methods of preparations of the raw materials of ironmaking, including especially coke, will be described in their historical setting. The importance of quality control will be illustrated by an exhibition of the equipment used for physical testing and chemical analysis. Programs of changing exhibits will permit the Museum of History and Technology to participate in observations of the anniversaries of historical events, to arrange topical exhibits on the historical backgrounds of current events, and to arrange occasional comprehensive exhibits of recent discoveries of science and new technology. A special exhibition gallery near the Constitution Avenue entrance connects to corridors at the center of the first floor which also are equipped to accommodate changing exhibits. The initial displays in these special exhibition galleries will be selections from exhibits already prepared for the halls which will be opened later. This will give the visitors, in the early months after the opening, the opportunity to see many of the Smithsonian’s outstanding objects and to see samples of what “is to come in the Museum of History and Tech <<>> nology.” An active program of special exhibits, changed often and announced in advance, is planned for this gallery. The visitor entering the Museum of History and Technology from the Mall will find himself in the central hall of the building, the Flag Hall. Here he will see the Star-Spangled Banner, the flag which flew over Fort McHenry during the attack of the British fleet in September 1814. The gallant defense of the fort and the appearance ef the flag inspired Francis Scott Key to write the words of our national anthem. ‘This flag, which is said by some museum experts to be the most important single museum object related to the history of the United States, will for the first time be fully shown. The flag which now measures 30 by 28 feet will be displayed against a supporting fabric which will be large enough to indicate the original dimensions of the flag. The flag on its supporting fabric will be erected on a specially designed metal grid and will hang in an atmosphere of filtered air carefully controlled for the proper temperature and humidity. The special lighting designed to show the flag with the greatest visual beauty and effectiveness will be carefully screened. Near the flag an exhibit will contain an early edition of ‘“The Star-Spangled Banner,” a lithograph of the bombardment of the fort, and typical projectiles of the period. The Flag Hall will be an appropriate introduction to the historical exhibits on this floor. From the Flag Hall the visitor might turn to the corridor in which will stand the well-known statue of George Washington by the sculptor, Horatio Greenough. ‘This statue marks the entrance to the first of five halls in which exhibits will portray the Growth of the United States from the discovery of the Western Hemisphere by European explorers to recent times. In the first hall of the series the voyages of the discoverers will be illustrated with early sea charts, original navigation instruments, arms, armor, and models of ships. Contemporary illustrations of life in the countries from which the explorers and settlers came, personal effects, elements of dress, tools, and weapons, original handbills, and documents will portray the objectives of the explorers, the hopes of the settlers, the homes they left, and what they brought with them. From the natural history and anthropological collections of the Smithsonian, selected plant specimens, animals, and Indian artifacts will illustrate what the settlers found and how they used the land’s resources to survive. Tn the first century of successful colonization in North America the colonists adjusted to the conditions of the new lands, and patterns of living and working were established. Dominating the second half of the Growth of the United States series will be a full-size New England house of about 1690. This house will be fully equipped with original furnishings of its period. In it the visitor will see the construction of <<>> the home, the central fireplaces which warmed it, the kitchen with its fireplace equipped with hooks, jacks, and beams to support the cooking utensils, the sparsely furnished bedroom, and many other clues to the home life of the colonist, and the start of an architectural tradition. Other exhibits in the hall will illustrate the occupations of the colonists. Farming implements, carpenter and cabinet tools, muskets and snares for hunting, models of boats, church and school furniture, and many others will illustrate the activities and the occupations of the people. The thoughts and hopes of the colonists were expressed in newspapers, prints, books, and broadsides. This aspect of the life of the period will be dramatized by the exhibit of the printing press at which Benjamin Franklin worked. In the third hall of the Growth of the United States series the exhibited objects will portray the activities and the life of the people from Revolutionary times to 1851. The drive to self-government and independence will be illustrated by many documents and objects of the period of 1740 to 1970. Outstanding will be the desk on which Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence, Washington’s Revolutionary War uniform and sword, and a cannon brought by the French troops under Lafayette. The vital interests that the citizens of the new nation took in themselves and in the land will be illustrated with documentary prints and paintings by Audubon and Catlin. The interest in architecture and design will be illustrated in original drawings and many fine furnishings from the homes of the Washington and Adams families. The enterprise of leading citizens will be illustrated with an exhibit on the building of the Camden & Amboy Railroad which was capitalized on shares to pay for the construction and to purchase the rails and the locomotive, “John Bull,” a feature of the exhibit. The ingenuity of the American invention will be illustrated by exhibits of patent models, fine original examples of the Whitney cotton gin, the Colt revolver, McCormick’s reaper, Morse’s telegraph, and many others. The theme of the hall is American individualism and national pride which is evidenced in the exhibit by the repetition of the American eagle in every field of design, including fire arms, furniture, and textiles. The exuberant culmination of national pride in this period is portrayed in an exhibit depicting the great success enjoyed by the American participation in the first great world’s fair, London’s Crystal Palace Exhibition of 1851. The great changes which took place in America in the 100 years from mid-19th to mid-20th century are illustrated by the exhibits in the fourth hall of the Growth of the United States series. This was the period of great industrial growth and the mechanization of transportation, communications, mining, farming, and manufactures. The exhibits illustrating this will be composed of outstanding objects selected from the Smithsonian’s extensive collections in many fields of technology. Typical of these are the handmade Duryea automobile and the mass-produced Model-T Ford, which illustrate the fact that in about 20 years from the introduction of the gasoline automobile in 706-307—_64——-15 <<>> this country, it was being produced in great volume with precision and economy and was being sold at a price within the reach of the workmen who built it. Bell’s telephone will exemplify the growth of direct communication and Mergenthaler’s linotype will explain the surge of mass-produced periodicals and books. The Singer sewing machine will illustrate the application of machine production to clothing as well as the introduction of laborsaving devices into the home. Objects, documents, coins and currency, memorabilia of important men of the times, furnishings, and products of manufactures will illustrate the many changes that took place in the physical, economic, and social aspects of American life of the period. The exhibits in the last hall in the Growth of the United States series will display a number of objects of recent development in many fields of science and technology to illustrate the new eminence of the experimental scientist in the present period of the industrial age. The Goddard rocket, electron optical apparatus, electronic computers, nuclear power, and automation will be among the exhibits. Wherever possible the exhibits will indicate the impact of these and similar developments on the everyday lives of Americans in areas such as home construction, transportation, education, recreation, and entertainment. The two halls of Life in the American Past will exhibit the Smithsonian’s collection of period rooms, furnishings, and objects of the decorative arts to illustrate everyday life in America from colonial times through the 19th century. The Hall of 17th Century Furnishings will have an introductory exhibit of European furnishings and arts typical of the homes and circumstances the colonists left to come to America. Adjacent to these will be shown examples of the homes they made in America. A Spanish colonial room will be reproduced from a home in New Mexico. Furniture and folk art from Canadian colonial homes will represent early life in new France. A room of a Story family home built in Essex, Mass., about 1695, will be completely furnished with 17th century objects of appropriate character. This room with its exposed timbers and with one wall of original plaster still intact is an outstanding early period room. Other exhibits illustrating the 17th century life of English colonists will include tools and work of the craftsmen; models and original architectural elements illustrating types of house construction; eating and drinking customs as exemplified by kitchen utensils, tableware, tankards, mugs, and bottles; pottery; and reconstruction of details of 17th century life based on the evidence of archeological finds at a number of colonial sites. The life of the Dutch in America in the 17th century will be indipelise in an exhibit of New York State furniture and silver of the period. The second part of Life in the American Past will exhibit in detail the evolution of everyday life in the 18th and 19th centuries. A welldocumented early 18th century, three-room log house from Wilming <<>> ton, Del., will be shown complete with furniture and household objects in keeping with the modest character of the home. Four elegant period rooms of the 18th century will be furnished with fine cabinet work, silver, and pewter. Detailed exhibits of fine silver, 18th century furniture, and outstanding pewter ware will provide collectors and connoisseurs the opportunity to see under the best conditions, the quality of the Smithsonian’s collections. Many of the finest of these have been presented to the Smithsonian by generous donors and it is hoped that the fine displays permitted by the new building will repay them, in part, for their splendid cooperation. Exhibits of utensils; carding, spinning, and weaving devices; axes, hoes, and spades; and many other implements, will illustrate the occupations of the farmer and his wife. The visitor entering the 19th century area will find exhibits devoted to the arts and furnishings of the Federal period, American folk art, toys, dolls, and games, heating and lighting utensils, country pottery, mechanical laborsaving devices, sailors’ scrimshaw work, and a New Hampshire schoolroom. Victorian taste will be illustrated by exhibits on the Philadelphia Centennial, an 1850 room setting, a library room of 1880 from a Philadelphia house, a complete confectioner’s shop and ice cream parlor of 1900, a child’s bedroom of 1898, and architecture and furniture of the era. A large exhibit will portray the settlement of the West, and the art of the Shakers will be represented in an exhibit of Shaker furniture. The First Ladies Hall will continue the tradition of exhibiting the dresses worn by the wife or official hostess of each President of the United States in rooms reproduced from various periods at the White House. ‘Two of the rooms will be faithful reproductions of those in the house at 190 High Street in Philadelphia where President and Mrs. Washington lived before the White House was built. All of the furnishings that will be seen in the drawing room reproduced from this house were owned and used by the Washingtons. ‘The rooms from the White House will contain many original features formerly in the rooms. Original fireplaces and mantels, lighting sconces and chandeliers, wall mirrors, and wall paneling will be incorporated into several of the rooms. ‘The rooms will include a music room as it might have looked during the administration of President John Quincy Adams, a reception room of the administration of President Martin Van Buren, a Victorian parlor in the White House, the Blue Room as it looked in 1870, the Blue Room of 1900, and the East Room of the 20th century. In these rooms the gowns of the First Ladies of the White House are displayed on mannequins surrounded by furniture and accessories which have an association with the White House and with the Presidential families. Smaller cases to be placed about the hall will contain personal belongings of the First Ladies and the Smithsonian Institution’s collection of White House china. A diorama will show the oval drawing room in the White House of 1814 as it looked after it was redecorated by Dolly Madison and Benjamin Latrobe. The Smithsonian has for more than a century been known as the national depository for memorabilia of important Americans. It is <<>> appropriate that the families and friends of men and women of national prominence should present to the Smithsonian, as custodian for the American people, interesting and significant objects associated with these men and women. ‘The new building will provide an opportunity to show these collections adequately and fully and the exhibits for the Hall of Historic Americans have been prepared for the purpose of displaying these materials for their maximum inspirational and patriotic effect. A number of Presidents of the United States are represented in the collections by personal and family belongings, furnishings from their homes, objects associated with their recreations and hobbies, memorabilia of significant events, and gifts of state. These will be exhibited in settings to evoke the times and events of their lives. Some of the issues of their days will be illustrated in exhibits of the early campaign badges, banners, and marching regalia of their supporters. Saalare men ot enterprise, scientists, and writers ill be represented in the exhibits, and the “‘first Americans,’ the Indians, will be remembered in an exhibit of paintings and personal belongings of prominent Indian leaders. Authentic examples of the clothing of past periods hold great interest for historians, artists, and the students of style and taste. The Smithsonian collections of garments from the past will be exhibited to the public for the first time when the new hall opens. The best examples of all periods and styles will be shown on lifesize figures which will permit the garments to be seen as they were meant to be worn and also permit the shoes, hats, jewelry, and other accessories to be exhibited as they were worn with the garments. Examples of the dress of American men, women, and children in all periods from the 18th century to recent times will be exhibited. Displays of the costume in the hoop and bustle styles will include unusually detailed and appealing groups of children’s dress of the times. From the reserve collections a number of exhibits of hats, shoes, and other accessories as well as extensive collections of jewelry of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries will be exhibited. Topical exhibits such as “Colors and Fabrics of the 18th Century” and a ‘‘Dressmaker’s Salon of the 1800’s” will provide detailed information on dress materials and the methods of fabricating garments in a number of periods. Exhibits arranged in a continuous sequence through three halls of the museum will present the history of the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard. The exhibits of weapons, uniforms, military vehicles, warship models, flags, maps, prints, paintings, aircraft models, and military and naval equipment of many kinds will illustrate the development of the Armed Forces from the experience of colonial Americans in the service of Great Britain, France, and Spain to preparedness for defense against missile attack. Many fine original objects from the Smithsonian collection will be found in this chronology. Washington’s favorite sword, a letter written by John Paul Jones, Baron DeKalb’s saddle, the flag of a German unit surrendered at Yorktown, the sword carried by Jackson in the War <<>> of 1812, Sheridan’s horse, and many other outstanding objects will be shown. The peacetime activities of the Armed Forces will be exemplified with objects from the exploring expeditions of the Army and Navy, in many of which the Smithsonian was associated. Hxamples of military research and development in such fields as communications, transportation, and medicine will be made particularly effective by reference to the exhibits on these subjects in the science and technology sections of the building. Exhibits on procurement of arms and equipment and the expansion of the services in times of war will illustrate the Armed Forces’ dependence upon industry and civilian soldiers, Distinctive and honored insignia have played an important role in Armed Forces’ history. Pride in unit or ship, esprit de corps, is an essential component of military effectiveness, and it requires that units and their members be easily identified. Exhibits in the Hall of Military and Naval Heraldry will trace the evolution of U.S. insignia. Representative uniforms will be exhibited to illustrate their functions in identifying the wearers and also to show insignia as it Was worn on the uniform. A number of outstanding examples of unit flags will be included. Medals of the Armed Forces of the United States awarded for valor, exceptional performance, and service will be displayed and described. These will range from the Medal of Honor to the theater medal. Though the emphasis in these exhibits will be on the U.S. awards, there will be included an outstanding collection of British service medals and what is reported to be the most complete collection of orders of knighthood of the highest grades. In the Hall of Ordnance the Smithsonian’s renowned collection of arms will be shown well for the first time in exhibits which will trace the evolution of weapons and sporting arms from the Stone Age to the present. American contributions to this development will include original examples from such important inventors as Hall, Colt, Sharps, Spencer, Henry, Gatling, Maxim, and Browning. Individual weapons of great interest will include a Bronze Age sword, a Ferguson breech-loading rifle used in the Revolutionary War, the patent model of the Colt revolver, and the recently introduced U.S. M60 machinegun. The operation of the mechanisms will be illustrated with animated models and enlarged components of firing and breech systems. ‘The exhibits will include a fine collection of swords and other edged weapons. The heavier types of military and naval ordnance will be reproduced in accurate scale models. At the end of the Hall of Ordnance is the original Revolutionary War gunboat, Philadelphia. This remarkable relic of the Revolution was raised from the bottom of Lake Champlain substantially complete and equipped. Visitors will view it from the floor and also from a raised walkway which will give a view of the mounting of the guns and of the many original small objects found in the gunboat. An accurate scale model will show the Philadelphia as she appeared in the battle of Valcour Bay in October 1776. <<>> The methods developed by archeologists during more than 150 years of scientific exploration and excavation of prehistoric sites are being applied now at an accelerating rate to sites falling within the period of American history, with very informative results. Exhibits of the Hall of Underwater History will illustrate how objects obtained from sunken ships have confirmed or added to the knowledge of cultural, marine, and naval historians. Hxhibits of divers’ equipment will trace the history of diving and show how the use of recently developed techniques has yielded an unexpectedly large number of historically important objects. The rapid advances made in underwater exploration through the development of skindiving will be emphasized in the exhibits. Electronic detectors, underwater cameras, specialized surveying and charting instruments, stakes, and floating markers will illustrate the methods of exploring a wreck or underwater site, surveying and recording its exact position, laying it out accurately so that every object recovered will be documented as to its exact location and its surroundings within the site. Objects recovered from American waters, including many kinds of ship fittings, trade goods, coins, pottery, silver and gold ornaments, bottles, small arms, cannon, and projectiles, will be exhibited and evaluated for their historical significance. Photographs and sketches made of sunken ships will illustrate the technical facts that have been added to the knowledge of early ship design and construction, Philosophers of the Middle Ages knew how to project the image of a brightly lighted outdoor scene upon the wall of a darkened room. A pinhole in a window curtain was all that was needed to demonstrate this. The long evolution of photography from this rudimentary camera obscura to modern high speed and automated equipment will be illustrated with original cameras, lenses, and early photographs. The Smithsonian collection of early direct prints made by the pioneers who discovered light-sensitive chemicals and the methods to employ them to capture picture images will be shown with original early cameras. ‘Ihe work of Daguerre, for example, will be illustrated with the Daguerreotype camera of 1839 used by Samuel F. B. Morse, artist and telegraph inventor. All of the significant wet plate, dry plate, and film cameras will be represented. A photographer’s portrait studio of the 1870’s will be reproduced and furnished with original equipment. Ingenious investigators used lines of trip-thread-triggered cameras to photograph the positions of men and horses running past the camera stations. Professor Langley, third Secretary of the Smithsonian, used a camera aimed and triggered like a shotgun to photograph the soaring and gliding actions of birds in flight. These photographs in the Smithsonian’s collections answered many scientific questions about motion which could not be seen or recorded directly by eye or brain. They also stimulated inventors to develop apparatus to photograph and reproduce motion. Exhibits in the Hall of Motion Picture <<>> Photography will trace the development with the original cameras and projectors of the pioneers. Patent models of Armat’s frame stopping action, Edison’s original spool-bank projector, the various mechanisms to synchronize sound with pictures, and a model of an 1892 motion picture studio which revolved with the sun will be exhibited. As in all Smithsonian technological exhibits, the old machines will be used to illustrate the development of the method and processes which made them effective. This Graphic Arts Hall will illustrate the origins and development of the manual arts and crafts connected with writing, drawing, typographical printing, and pictorial printmaking. The exhibits wi include such early methods of graphic communication as cuneiform, pictographs, and hieroglyphics, as well as the evolution of the modern alphabet. The development of typography will be shown through early specimens of type, punches, matrices, and a hand mold for casting type. Examples of fine printing, from a page of the Gutenberg Bible to modern work, will illustrate important advances in type design. ‘Technical displays will show, in step-by-step fashion, how results are achieved in such printing methods as woodcut, wood engraving, line engraving, etching, aquatint, drypoint, mezzotint, lithography, and silk screen stencil. Accompanying historical exhibits will trace the development of each process, through original prints, from early workers to modern practitioners. Included will be excellent impressions by such great printmakers as Durer, Rembrandt, Goya, Whistler, and Matisse. Peeples of hand printing presses will include an early screw press made by Adam Ramage about 1820 and a late model of the Columbian Press, America’s first iron press, invented by George Clymer in 1813. The second Hall of Graphic Arts will show the evolution of modern industrial printing methods through the application of photography. Technical displays will include color processes, explain basic principles, and show how results are obtained. Accompanying historical exhibits will trace the development of each method through original examples beginning with the first photomechanical print, a portrait of Cardinal d’Amboise, made by Joseph N. Niepce in 1826. Among the processes described will be photogravure, rotogravure, photolithography, offset lithography, letterpress, collotype, and silk screen printing. Pioneer examples of these processes, drawn from the Smithsonian’s unparalleled collection of early photomechanical prints and equipment, will include material by such important workers as William H. Fox Talbot, coinventor of photography and discoverer of the basic principles of photomechanical printing; Paul Pretsch, who established the first commercial firm in this field; Alphonse Poitevin, who patented the first methods for printing in lithography and collotype; and Frederick E. Ives, who developed early methods of halftone printing. Other exhibits will include stereotyping, electrotyping, and the development of power printing machinery. Machines on display will include the first typecasting machine, made by Ottmar <<>> Mergenthaler in 1884; a treadle-operated job press of the 1870's; and Monotype and Linotype typesetting and typecasting machines of more recent date. For nearly 50 years the Smithsonian has been holding special exhibits of the work of contemporary printmakers and photographers. From these popular and well-attended exhibits the Smithsonian has had the opportunity to select prints and photographs donated by the artists and to build its collections from these gifts. Occasional exhibits in these series will continue to feature selections from the permanent collections. For the first time these special exhibits will have the advantage of modern lighting and adequate space in the new hall designed to display them. The Numismatics Hall, or Hall of Monetary History and Medallic Art, will exhibit the essential elements of a museum of the history of money of all periods and places. Here will be shown real examples of the first coins ever minted in ancient Greece. Following the case that shows these very early coins are others in which a visitor will see illustrated the spread of coinage throughout the ancient Mediterranean world. There will be shown means of exchange other than coins and samples of the gold and other monetary forms of nonEuropean nations. Special feature will be the great collection of colonial American and U.S. coins and paper money for which the Smithsonian has long been famous. The presentation of coins will have a completely novel objective, for it will be organized to teach the history and geography of the world in relation to money. Many of the outstanding gold pieces from the Institution’s great Straub collection will be displayed, as will be coins of the Du Pont collection of Russian money. Many examples in the well-lighted cases come from the U.S. mint collection. Examples of almost every coin ever struck in America will be on view or in the study collections of the Institution. The visitor to this hall who comes to it with intellectual curiosity will learn not only the fascinating story of coinage, sculpture, desien, and medallic art through the centuries, but also much else that is important in the history of economics and even of civilization itself, 47. PHILATELY The Hall of Philately is a museum of postal communications, of postage stamps, and of stamp design and printing. An early Stickney rotary press will be in operation simulating the printing of stamps. Other early equipment from the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing will illustrate how the artist’s design of a stamp is engraved in steel and how the original engraving is repeatedly transferred to a large steel surface to make a printing plate. The transportation of the mails will be illustrated by models of mail coaches, river and coastwise mail steamers, trucks, mail cars, and airplanes. An early American country-store post office will be reproduced with original fixtures. The postal equipment used in it in 1880 will be contrasted with metered postage printers and other modern equipment. The national <<>> postage stamp collection is an attraction for the thousands of stamp collectors who visit the Smithsonian. For the first time this great collection will be shown in protective cases with enough space to accommodate an example of every postage stamp issued since the first one was printed in Great Britain in 1840. Changing displays of postage stamps will include those issued to commemorate great events or to forward humanitarian causes. - The Ceramic Hall will give an historical and technical representation of ceramic production in Europe and America from about the 17th century to the present day. The introductory section will exhibit the basic processes used in forming and glazing ceramic wares. Adjacent exhibits will contain ceramic materials, such as clay samples before and after firing, and the glaze ingredients, including the powdered metallic oxides used to obtain various colors. A large wall map of the world will give the locations and dates of the important ceramic centers with drawings of typical wares produced or discovered in these areas. A “garden arrangement” of ceramic objects will show ine wanes of ornamental ceramic ware from porcelain tiles to paving ricks. A chart of the Chinese dynasties with illustrations of significant ceramic advances made in them will introduce the exhibition of Chinese export porcelain. Another unit will show German ceramics, including those from the Meissen factory, the first European factory to discover the formula for true porcelain. The ceramics of other European countries, including France, Austria, Holland, Italy, Spain, Russia, and England, will follow. The exhibit of American views on Staffordshire will form a transitional exhibition leading to the American and contemporary areas at the end of the gallery. A room opening from the Dutch section and the Staffordshire gallery will contain a detailed collection of tiles. Decorations of pertinent ceramic subjects and techniques, such as the Albrechtsburg Fortress, where Meissen porcelain was first made, will enhance the German room and a ceramic fountain and screen, produced by artists of the New York State Ceramic College at Alfred, will show present-day design trends and techniques in the contemporary American section. Fine examples of the glassmaker’s art will be shown with exhibits illustrating how glass is made. Technical terms familiar to collectors of glass such as rock crystal, obsidian, and the many variations of glass will be explained through exhibits of the actual materials. The early history of glass will be illustrated with the finest examples from the Smithsonian’s extensive collections displayed in chronological and geographical sequence. Each unit whether Egyptian, Roman, Islamic, Italian, German, French, or English will be shown with decorative devices to relate the original glass objects to the styles or patterns of their times. The methods of making early glass will be shown. A large part of the hall will be devoted to American glass of the 18th and 19th centuries. The display of work of such early <<>> American glassmakers as Stiegel and Amelung will be accompanied by sketches illustrating the complexity and size of their glassmaking communities. The long history of popular American pressed glass will be illustrated with examples of the work of many now anonymous designers and makers as well as with the better known Sandwich lass. Scale models of a 20th century glass factory pot furnace and lowing room with an original melting pot will illustrate production methods. A room will be reserved for changing exhibitions of the work of contemporary glass designers. Students of music have an increasing interest in the musical instruments of the periods in which great composers wrote their masterworks. Understanding of fine music is enhanced when the music is heard as originally played on the early instruments for which it was composed. In the Hall of Musical Instruments carefully restored instruments will be displayed so that they may be demonstrated occasionally for museum visitors and students. The handsome keyboard instruments such as the harpsichords, clavichords, virginals, and earliest pianos will be exhibited: in a setting conceived as an 18th century drawing room. Included are instruments of the great 17th and 18th century makers, Andreas Ruckers, Burkat Shudi, and Johannes Dulcken. Lutes, viols, guitars, and other stringed instruments will complete the exhibits in thisroom. Significant examples of 18th and 19th century pianos have been selected for exhibition principally from the Smithsonian’s Hugo Worch collection. These and exhibits showing the evolution of wind instruments, the history of musical notations, interesting examples of mechanical musical instruments, and comparisons of instrument mechanisms will be shown in adjoining rooms. There will be frequent need to arrange special exhibits of new acquisitions, such as gifts of fine porcelain, coins, medals, small arms, stamps, glass, and musical instruments. Other interesting changing exhibits will be produced to show the depth and quality of the Smithsonian’s collections in more detail than would be effective or enjoyable in a permanent exhibit. For these and other requirements a special exhibits gallery has been provided on the third floor conveniently located for the visitor to see the permanent collections of objects similar to those shown in the changing exhibits. It is equipped with modern adjustable lighting fixtures required to illuminate a changing variety of objects. Recessed in the walls are concealed channels which are elements of a system for supporting various sizes and shapes of exhibition cases and panels. Built into the floor are ducts for wires required to facilitate and conceal the connections that will be made for lighting and security alarm circuits at free-standing exhibition cases wherever they may be placed. A continuing program of special exhibits will be conducted in this and the larger gallery on the first floor. <<>> <<>> <<>> <<>> <<>> <<>> <<>> <<>> <<>>
