Buildings Museum of History and Technology On October 25, 1963, the General Services Administration advised the contractor that all remaining areas and systems of the Museum of History and Technology not previously accepted were, with certain exceptions, accepted effective August 30, 1963. On January 22, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson dedicated the building at ceremonies attended by Ambassadors, Ministers, Members of the Supreme Court, Members of the Senate, Members of the House of Representatives, other high ranking officials and important donors and other friends of the Smithsonian Institution. After introductory remarks by Leonard Carmichael, Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, the audience was addressed, in the order of events, by Chancellor of the Smithsonian Institution Earl Warren, Chief Justice of the United States; by Senator Clinton P. Anderson, United States Senator from New Mexico, Regent of the Smithsonian Institution and Chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee on Construction of a Building for a Museum of History <<>> pipe age wae Tareas <<>> <<>> = Huh mare mena ay, Construction of new west wing of the Museum of Natural History from top of Washington Monument; Museum of History and Technology in foreground.

After the ceremonies the guests viewed the exlibits in ten halls installed for the opening. The building was opened to the public at 9:00 a.m., January 23, 1964. On the first Sunday after the opening more than 57,000 persons visited the building, causing traflic jams of substantial size. By June 30, 1964, a total of 2,510,672 persons had visited the building. The opening of the building and its initial exhibits has focused the attention of historians, museum professionals, scholars, writers and many others on the scholarly competence of the curators and upon the unportance of the Smithsonian collections in recording and interpreting history and traditions. Interviews have been taped, and the building and its exhibits have been filmed for world-wide distribution by the USIA and the Voice of America. Unprecedented requests have been received from universities for joint programs in American studies, and the history of science and technology. Architects and museum directors from all sections of the United States and the world have visited the Museum to inspect the building, to examine the programs and collections, and to obtain advice on the establishment, construction, and improvement of museums. Museum of Natural History The contract for construction of the west wing of the natural history building, including the last stage of renovation of the original building, was signed in August 1963 and excavation for the wing was begun in November. The foundations were laid and the superstructure erected at a rapid rate, and by the end of the fiscal year most of the granite facing was in place. Meanwhile, renovation of the original building was commenced. 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 1964, the sum of $5,587,000 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.) <<>> E =) ® nw = ® fe he ° Fe} < D 3 = fe ® vu = 5 h — rs ® E nw ® u 3 he he Spangled Banne Star ing hangs the Foucault pendulum which demon- of the earth to visitors on floor below (right). Through circular open strates rotat <<>> Exhibits A significant milestone in the history of the exhibits program at the Smithsonian Institution was passed when exhibition halls on the first and second floors of the Museum of History and Technology were presented to the public on January 23, 1964. Totaling more than 75,000 square feet of instructive displays, these areas include the following halls or portions thereof : Flag Hall Light Machinery First Ladies Tools Everyday Life in the American Past Vehicles American Costume Railroads Farm Machinery Heavy Machinery (part) Also placed on display were the Greenough statue of George Washington, flanked by eight cases of outstanding national treasures; a centrally located Foucault pendulum; and a preview of future ex- <<>> hibits, in which are presented examples of displays to be placed in halls to be opened in the future. The halls and exhibits on view at the opening had required less than eight months to install, and the building was opened to the public in less than five months after its substantial completion by the contractor. This achievement was the result of nearly eight years of advanced planning and design of exhibition halls, followed by the production of innumerable individual displays, some of which had been temporarily exhibited in the Arts and Industries building prior to being moved to the new museum. It could not have been accomplished without the cooperation of many individuals on the curatorial staff, in the office of exhibits and the buildings management division, and in the employ of private contractors—including subject matter specialists who planned and technically supervised development of the displays; specialists in exhibits design, production, and installation; as well as model makers, plastics technicians, painters, electricians, and laborers. Among those in charge of this operation, and presently engaged in the task of installing the remaining halls of the museum are assistant director John C. Ewers, who coordinates the varied exhibits activities of this museum with the able assistance of John N. Edy in planning the physical movement of materials; Benjamin W. Lawless, who supervises the design, production, and installation of exhibits, aided by Robert Widder in design, Bela S. Bory and Wilham Clark in production, Robert Klinger in the model shop, Stanley Santoroski in supervision of installation, and Carroll Lusk as lighting specialist; George Weiner, who edits the curators’ drafts of exhibits scripts, with the assistance of Constance Minkin and Edna Wright. The timely assistance of buildings manager Andrew F. Michaels and his staff, of John E. Cudd, laison architect, and of George Watson, skilled specialist in the renovation and installation of period interiors, contributed substantially to the success of this program. Since the opening of the new museum the installation of additional halls has progressed. The hall of historic Americans was opened to the public in June, and five other halls will be installed and opened during the four months following June 30, 1964. John E. Anglim, exhibits chief, continued in charge of the planning and preparation of all exhibits, and, with the assistance of Gilbert Wright, directly supervised the operation of the exhibits laboratory in the Museum of Natural Mistory. Julius Tretick supervised the production and installation of exhibits in that museum. Substantial portions of the halls dealing with cultures of Asia and Africa and with comparative osteology were opened to the public in June, and progress was made on five other halls in that Museum. <<>> EXHIBITS let Director T. Dale Stewart continued to serve as chairman of the committee coordinating the exhibits modernization program in natural history, and assistant director Richard S. Cowan coordinated the work of curators and exhibits personnel in the development of natural history exhibits. To the advancement of this work substantial contributions were made by John H. Morrissey, project review chief, architectural branch of the Public Buildings Service, General Services Administration, and by Joseph F. Cromwell, Jr., Mrs. Gertrude Hein, and Albert Brigeda, design architects of that agency. Anthropology Colorful new exhibits of objects from the Near East, Japan, Korea, China, and North and West Africa were first placed on public view when the west portion of the hall of cultures of Africa and Asia was informally opened in late June. Among the exhibits interpreting the traditional cultures of the Asian peoples are a life-size group portraying an episode from a Chinese opera, with accompanying pushbutton sound recording, a display of objects illustrating the evolution of farming in Japan, and a unit on the daily and religious life in Tibet. The Republic of Korea has loaned one of its national art treasures, a cast-iron figure of Buddha from the Koryo dynasty (A.D. 935-1392), which is presented in a temple setting with a paneled screen of red silk brocade. North and West African cultures present many striking works of art from peoples whose accomplishments have had a profound influence upon modern art in Europe and America. One of the most dramatic displays is a diorama portraying the smelting of iron ore in primitive furnaces and the fashioning of iron tools by tribesmen from the Mandara Mountain region of northern Cameroon. This group was created by exhibits specialists John Weaver, Robert Caftrey, and Peter De Anna. The exhibits in this hall were planned and specified by associate curators of ethnology Gordon D. Gibson and Eugene I. Knez. The hall design was the work of exhibits designer Dorothy Guthrie and the graphic design of individual units was the work of exhibits designer Lucius Lomax. The completely renovated life-size group portraying Indian quarrying operations and making of stone artifacts at the Piney Branch site within the present boundaries of the District of Columbia some 500 years ago was opened to the public in the hall of North American archeology, and another group illustrating Indian copper mining in present Michigan was nearing completion at year’s end. Contract construction in the new hall of Old World archeology was virtually completed at year’s end. This hall was designed by exhibits designer <<>> Rolland O. Hower under the scientific supervision of associate curator Gus Van Beek. The contractor’s work in the new hall of physical anthropology also was nearing completion at the end of June. About half of the exhibit units for this hall have been designed by exhibits designer Joseph Shannon, who also served as architectural designer for the hall. The contents of the exhibits have been specified by T. Dale Stewart, director of the Museum of Natural History and Lawrence Angel, curator-in-charge of the division of physical anthropology. During the spring of 1964, Dr. Knez supervised the installation of 41 outstanding examples of Chinese, Buddhist, and Hindu stone sculpture, bronze and other items from China, India, Cambodia, and Java. Dr. Van Beek worked with the Department of State and the Snuthsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service on arrangements for loan of the Dead Sea Scrolls and associated materials from the government of Jordan. In May, during his overseas detail, he conferred with officials of the Jordanian government, the U.S. Embassy, and the Palestine Archaeological Museum, and selected specimens and photoeraphs for use in the exhibition, which is scheduled to be opened in the Museum of Natural History in March 1965. Thereafter it will cireulate for six months among other museums in the United States by the Traveling Exhibition Service. Zoology At the end of June the exhibits in the east half of the hall of osteology, comprising the sections on mammals and birds, were informally opened to the public. The skeletons in this exhibition range in size from one of the gray whale to those of small birds. Skeletal materials are supplemented by graphic portrayals of the appearance in the flesh of the particular examples displayed. One interesting display compares the skeleton of man with those of other primates. Another points out the bony structures, differences in which serve as the bases for scientific classification of birds. ‘The sections of this hall devoted to reptiles, amphibians, and fishes are in process of preparation and installation. Planning of the exhibits in this hall has been coordinated by curator David H. Johnson, with the cooperation of the staff members of all the vertebrate divisions of this department. Hall design was by Anthony DiStefano and Rolland O. Hower, and graphic design by exhibits designer Morris M. Pearson. On February 19, 1964, a temporary exhibition entitled “Return to the Sea” was opened on the mezzanine of the hall of life in the sea. This display, a joint effort of the Interagency Committee on Oceanography of the Government and the Smithsonian Institution, has as <<>> EXHIBITS ie its theme the renewal of interest in oceanography and the marine environment. Associate curator Charles Cutress and Mr. Kjell Sandved spent approximately two months in Honolulu, Hawan, Dillon Beach, Calif., and at Friday Harbor, Wash., obtaining photographs and wellpreserved specimens of animals of which models will be made for display in additional permanent exhibits in this hall. Preparation of models and the securing of specimens for the hall of cold-blooded vertebrates (fishes, amphibians, and reptiles) was continued during the year, and the installation of groups in this hall was begun. Curator Leonard P. Schultz who is coordinating the planning of exhibits for this hall, and Alfred Strohlein spent several days in the vicinity of Seattle, Wash., during October collecting red salmon and background materials for the group on salmon spawning. Exhibits designer Barbara Craig prepared the architectural layout for this hall, and graphic design is by Joseph Shannon. Staff members of the department cooperated with the department of paleobiology, the Oceanographic Sorting Center, the National Zoologieal Park, and the Canal Zone Biological Area in preparing a special exhibition for presentation in the foyer of the Natural History Museum at the time of the 16th International Congress of Zoology, held in Washington, August 20-27, 1963. These displays illustrated facets of the history of zoological research at the Smithsonian Institution, the research programs currently in progress, and international cooperation in the study of animal life. Botany Planning for the hall of plant life has continued at an accelerated rate since January 1964, at which time was established a planning committee consisting of Assistant Director Richard S. Cowan, chairman, and curators M. E. Hale, Jr., David Lellinger, T. R. Soderstrom, Stanwyn G. Shetler, Dan Nicolson, and Richard H. Eyde. This group met regularly with exhibits designer Rolland O. Hower to develop specific plans for the exhibits. Study sites from which to obtain data for construction of some of the habitat groups were selected in the eastern United States, and preparation of botanical models for use in the exhibits in this hall is in progress. Paleobiology The fourth and last of the remarkable series of mural paintings in the hall of the age of mammals in North America, representing land life during epochs of Tertiary time, was completed by artist Jay H. Matternes. This mural depicts a Phocene mammalian assemblage. <<>> Associate curator Clayton EK. Ray initiated preliminary planning of displays in the hall to be devoted to life of the Pleistocene, the geologic epoch immediately preceding the present, in consultations with members of the exihibit staff. Much of the time of the laboratory staff has been devoted to repairing and remounting skeletons of the various larger Pleistocene mammals that were previously exhibited, and in restoring new skeletal remains for presentation in this hall. Temporary exhibits, dealing with current research programs of staff members, were prepared by the invertebrate paleontology staff and U.S. Geological Survey paleontologists for the Intenational Zoological Congress in the summer of 1963, and were sent to New York City for display at the national meetings of the Geological Society of America and he Paleontological Society in November. Mineral Sciences Planning and design of the new physical geology and meteorite exhibits was completed in preparation for the start of construction, which is to provide additional space for the gem exhibits. The physical geology exhibit will interpret the nature and properties of materials composing the earth; the distribution of these materials throughout the globe; the processes by which they are formed, altered, transported, and distorted; and the nature and development of the landscape. The new hall has been planned by curator George S. Switzer and associate curators Paul E. Desautels and Edward P. Henderson. The hall layout has been prepared by exhibits designer Dorothy Guthrie. Science and Technology Four halls of the Department of Science and Technology in the east portion of the first floor were open when the interior of the Museum of History and Technology first was revealed to the public. By means of a few choice full-scale vehicles and an extended series of accurately and precisely executed scale models the railroad hall interprets the history of street railways as well as railroads. The giant 280-ton Pacific-type steam locomotive No. 1401, largest and one of the most impressive three-dimensional specimens in the museum, stands near the row of east windows through which it may be viewed from outside the building at night as well as by daylight. It contrasts sharply with the boiler from the little “Stourbridge Lion” brought from England in 1829 to become the first steam locomotive to run on an American railroad built for commercial use, and with the bonnetstacked, wood-burning locomotive “Pioneer” built in 1851 by Seth <<>> Wilmarth for the Cumberland Valley Railroad in Pennsylvania. A cut-away scale model of a diesel-electric locomotive shows a type that has supplanted the steam locomotive on American railroads in recent years. A full-scale cable car used in Seattle, Wash., in the late 19th century stands on a section of narrow-gauge track in an elevated position so visitors can see the underground construction required for its operation. Basic developments in street cars, locomotives, and railroad cars are illustrated by nearly 80 models, most of them built to the Brick-paved railroad hall has picture window (right) facing 12th Street. same scale, which faithfuliy portray notable mechanical advances and the contributions of famous designers. Also displayed are an outstanding collection of rail samples, and examples of railway safety devices. The hall was planned by associate curator John H, White, Jr., in collaboration with exhibits designers James Mahoney, Virginia Mahoney, and Deborah Bretzfelder. The adjacent vehicle hall traces the development of various types of road vehicles in the United States from the 18th century to the present day. Among the outstanding horse-drawn vehicles on display are two variations of the famous stage coach built by the Abbot, Downing Company of Concord, N.H., and widely used in the East and <<>> West beyond the lines of the early railroads; the finely constructed Lawrence family coach built by Thomas Goddard of Boston in 1851; and a city omnibus built by E. M. Miller of Quincy, Ill. The automobiles illustrate the rapid evolution of automobile design and manufacture from the 1890’s. Along with the pioneer Balzer and Haynes motor wagons, appear the famous Winton mile-a-minute racer of 1902, the Winton in which Dr. H. Nelson Jackson drove the first transcontinental motor trip m 1903, and a sturdy Mack Bulldog truck. Museum specialist Donald Berkebile planned the exhibits in this hall with assistance in layout from exhibits designer Riddick Vann. The hall of tools illustrates the history and development of machine tools. Introductory exhibits display hand tools with which men performed laboriously tasks later accomphshed with much greater speed and precision by machine. A short sound film in color describes the five basic machining operations—planing, milling, drilling and boring, turning, and grinding. A full-scale reproduction of Thomas Blanchard’s gunstock lathe of 1822 introduces a series of historic specialpurpose machines which, in their capacity for producing large numbers of interchangeable parts, played important roles in contributing to increased American productivity and to a higher standard of living. The attainment of greater precision in measurement, important to the development of machine tools, is brought out in a series of exhibits tracing the history of measurement from the Roman cubit to modern times. An outstanding feature of this hall is a reconstructed fullsize machine shop of about 1855 equipped with some of the oldest machine tools in the collection. Six machines, restored to operating condition, are placed in the surroundings in which they would have been used. They are operated by a docent at designated times to demonstrate their functions to museum visitors. Silvio A. Bedini, curator of civil engineering, and his predecessor, Eugene S. Ferguson, selected the machines and planned the case exhibits in this hall with the cooperation of exhibits designers Bright Springman, Harry Hart, and John Clendening. William Henson installed the machines and placed them in operating condition. A major portion of the hall of light machinery illustrates the evolution of timekeeping. The introductory exhibit, through a revolving globe bearing small sundials on its surface, demonstrates the basic importance of the daily cycle of the earth’s rotation as the foundation of man’s timekeeping systems. The exhibits illustrate the gradual development of timekeeping from early sundials, sandglasses, and waterclocks to the most precise modern electronic clocks. Historic examples of European and American-made clocks and watches and a number of enlarged escapement models are included. In the <<>> Demonstrations are conducted in pre-1855 machine shop in hall of tools. <<>> center of the hall is a reconstruction of a Renaissance clock tower, the four sides of which will display a sun dial, and civil, astronomical, and automaton dials actuated by an American tower clock of 1786. Both the sun dial and civil-time dials have been installed, the former by museum specialist Dorothy Briggs and the latter by its maker, Thwaites and Reed of London, England. Nearby is a reconstructed chronometer-maker’s shop of 1830, complete with the tools used by its proprietor in manufacturing these precise instruments. The exhibits in other sections of this hall show machines derived from the skills developed by clock and instrument makers. One series traces Reconstruction of Renaissance clock tower in hall of light machinery. the development of the phonograph from Thomas Edison’s original invention and the work of Alexander Graham Bell’s Volta Laboratory through the more recent talking machines. Exhibits on the evolution of the typewriter include early original machines and patent models. Still other displays interpret the history of locks from early times to the present, showing how new materials and more subtle engineering concepts led to the perfection of more secure locking devices. Exhibits in this hall were planned by associate curator Edwin A. Battison in cooperation with hall designer Bright Springman and exhibits designer Barbara Bowes. <<>> At the close of the year installation of exhibits in the hall of civil engineering, adjoining the railroad hall, were nearing completion and plans were made for an early July opening. An interpretation of the story of bridge and tunnel building through the ages shows how the use of new materials enabled bridge builders to construct longer spans and illustrates through scale models many of the classic bridges of history. The tunnels section features a series of cutaway scale models that illustrates the development of methods in both softground and hard-rock tunneling and depicts men constructing some of the major tunnels in which new drilling methods and mechanisms were employed. Associate curator Robert M. Vogel prepared the technical specifications for this hall and the exhibits layout and design are the work of exhibits designers John Brown and Harry Hart. Considerable progress also was made in the installation of exhibits in the hall of heavy machinery. ‘Those at the west end of this hall, opened to the public in January, interpret the early development of the steam engine, and include a reconstruction of an early Watt rotative engine. The series on refrigeration and the diesel engine are to be opened in conjunction with the adjoining civil engineering hall in July 1964. All free-standing exhibition cases have been installed in the American merchant marine hall, and a considerable number of the scale models of historic types of vessels from the museum’s outstanding watercraft collection have been placed in them by exhibits specialist James A. Knowles, Jr., under the supervision of curator of transportation Howard I. Chapelle. A temporary exhibition of communications satellites, being installed in the northeast portion of the hall of electricity, will be available to the public in July. An item in this exhibit is the back-up satellite for Telstar I—presented to the museum on July 10, 1963, the first anniversary of its launching. Contract installation of cases for permanent exhibits in the southwest portion of this hall, which will interpret current electricity, neared completion at year’s end. These exhibits have been planned by associate curator of electricity Bernard S. Finn. Exhibits designer Nadya Kayaloff has nearly completed the display designs. In the halls of pharmacy, medicine, and dentistry at the extreme west end of the first floor, installation of an 1890 period drugstore, of period interiors depicting a portion of a room in the Massachusetts General Hospital, and a midwestern dentist’s office are nearing completion. The Old World apothecary shop formerly on view in the Arts and Industries building is to be installed in the new hall of pharmacy. Two new exhibits destined for exhibition in the new museum were placed on temporary display in the Arts and Industries <<>> building: A diorama depicting Dr. Philip S. Physick excising a large paratoid gland tumor in the circular room of the Pennsylvania Hospital in 1805, long before the discovery of anesthesia; and an enlarged model of the human ear, donated by the Lambert Institute of Otology of New York City. Curator of medical sciences Sami K. Hamarneh, assisted by Dr. Alfred R. Henderson, consultant, are completing exhibit plans for the medical science exhibits in cooperation with exhibits designer, John Clendening. The Foucault pendulum, prepared by the California Institute of Technology and exhibited in the central rotunda of the new museum, has fascinated visitors since the opening of the building. The division of physical sciences, which is in charge of this exhibit, has been making careful studies of its operation and of the problem of interpreting it to the public. A large graphic explanation planned by curator Walter F. Cannon, is being produced by the exhibits laboratory. Development of exhibits for the hall of physical sciences progressed with the completion of a layout plan for the mathematics section and the production of all but two units in the section of astronomy. Arts and Manufactures The farm machinery hall, on view when the new building opened in January, shows through displays of original objects and accurate scale models how the invention and use of labor-saving machines played a major role in the rapid expansion of American agriculture since the early 19th century. The earlier hand-wielded and horse-drawn implements are contrasted with later self-propelled machines which performed the same basic tasks of plowing, planting, cultivating, and harvesting food crops. The horse-drawn combine in the center of this hall represents an early peak in mechanization. This machine, the first built by Benjamin Holt at Stockton, Calif., in 1886, performed all the harvesting and threshing tasks while moving through the wheat fields of a western bonanza farm. >> Installation of exhibits in the new hall of graphic arts was begun in spring of 1964 in anticipation of a fall opening of this hall, which will explain the processes and present outstanding examples of works created and produced by hand and by photomechanical processes. These exhibits have been planned by curator Jacob Kainen and associate curator Fuller O. Griffith in cooperation with exhibits designer Nadya Kayaloff. Temporary exhibits of prints and photographs will continue to be displayed in the Arts and Industries and the Smithsonian buildings until completion of the graphic arts salon in the new museum. Nine special exhibits in graphic arts and seven featuring the work of outstanding contemporary photographers were shown during the year: Recent accessions June 3—June 30, 1963 Monotype prints from the collection July 1-August 4, 19638 Prints by Conrad Ross, Art Department, Auburn August 5—September 15, 1963 sity of Maryland Intaglio prints by Mario Micossi September 16—November 3, 1963 Intaglio prints by Jan Gelb November 4—December 8, 1963 Woodcuts by Hans Jelinek December 9, 1963—January 6, 1964 Etchings by Ruel P. Tolman from the collection January 7—February 3, 1964 Selected examples of nature printing February 4May 3, 1964 Prints by Conrad Ross, Art Department, Auburn May 4-June 30, 1964 University, Auburn, Ala.

Development of this hall is under the technical direction of curator Paul VY. Gardner and assistant curator J. Jefferson Miller II of the division of ceramics and glass. ‘The hall was designed by Dorothy Guthrie, and the graphics design is being completed by exhibits designer Barbara Bowes. The Ninth International Exhibition of Ceramic Art, sponsored by the Kiln Club of Washington, was held in the Natural History Museum September 8 through October 11,1963. On view were 550 pieces of pottery, the work of ceramic artists from 39 foreign countries and the United States. Five pieces, including two award winners from the exhibition, were given to the division of ceramics and glass. <<>> Among the displays in the preview of future exhibits in the temporary exhibits gallery on the first floor of the new museum is an early American handloom, built by a pioneer settler of western Pennsylvania about 1800, which is used for weekly demonstrations of weaving by associate curator of textiles Rita Adrosko. A reproduction of the figure-8 stellerator developed by Dr. Lyman Spitzer of Princeton University was placed on exhibition in the Constitution Avenue window area on the first floor of the new museum. Symbolic of the research involving the generation of temperatures in excess of 100 million degrees centigrade, the stellerator provides an interesting contrast with the 19th-century farm machines which may be seen through the display window in the adjoining hall of farm machinery.

The hall of everyday life in the American past, comprising the largest exhibition gallery in the museum, displays the material evidences of domestic life in America before 1900. The furnishings, utensils, decorative arts and other objects illustrating aspects of the cultural life of the country are presented in a series of cases, period rooms, and platform groupings progressing chronologically from an initial series of displays devoted to the European backgrounds of early settlement groups to the interior of a confectioner’s shop in Georgetown, D.C., at the turn of the 20th century. Among the outstanding exhibits in the first series are a reproduction of a room from an 18thcentury Spanish New Mexican adobe home and objects of religious art from the Franciscan missions of the Southwest. The English colonies of the eastern seaboard are represented by displays ranging from artifacts obtained archeologically to fine furniture, pewter, and silver. Period rooms in this portion of the hall include a chamber from a 17th-century Massachusetts house and mid-18th-century parlors from Virginia and Massachusetts. An entire log house from Mill Creek Hundred, Del., dating from about 1740, shows both the exterior and interior construction and the furnishings of this house. Exhibits in the 19th-century section of this hall portray the contrasts and transitions from a handicraft to an industrial society through such objects as Federal-period silver and furniture, rural pottery, foll arts, and industrially-made decorations. Exhibits of children’s games and toys are especially appealing to visitors of all ages. The starkly simple furnishings of the Shaker sect appear in a display of furniture from the collection of Dr. J. J. G. McCue. This hall was planned and installed under the direction of curator C. Malcolm Watkins, assisted by associate curators Rodris Roth and John N. Pearce. It was designed by exhibits chief John E. Anglim, with the assistance of exhibits designer Deborah Bretzfelder. Period rooms and the log house were executed by George H. Watson and his staff of restoration specialists with the professional assistance of Mrs. KE. Boyd, curator of Spanish colonial art, Museum of New Mexico, and architects Robert L. Raley of Newark, Del., and Robert E. Plettenberg of Santa Fe, N. Mex. The new First Ladies hall provides a more appealing medium for continuing the tradition of exhibiting the dresses worn by the wife or official hostess of each president of the United States. These dresses show the changes in American costume from the 18th-century style <<>> srsncattitatrrane estee ae Hall of American costume contains examples of four centuries of dress, with particular emphasis on styles of the 18th and 19th centuries. worn by Martha Washington to the simple lines and elegant fabrics of more recent First Ladies. Three dresses were presented to the public for the first time: the handsome Empire gown worn by Mrs. James Madison, on loan from the William Rockhill Nelson Gallery in Kansas City, Mo.; the garnet velvet gown worn by Rose Cleveland, sister of President Cleveland and hostess for the first two years of his first administration; and a black silk dress of Mrs. Grover Cleveland. The dresses are displayed upon mannequins in a series of eight room settings, each appropriately finished and furnished to indicate the periods and environments in which the dresses were worn. ‘Two rooms reproduce those in the house at 190 High Street in Philadelphia, where President and Mrs. Washington lived before the White House was built, and display furniture and fixtures owned and used by them. The other room settings combine architectural details from the White House, including four original White House mantels and the 1902 paneling from the East Room, with furniture and accessories used both in the White House and in Presidential family homes. Especially interesting are the set of gold furniture purchased for use in the Blue Room of the White House in 1859 and used until the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the elaborate gold piano used in the Kast Room from Theodore Roosevelt’s administration to that of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Small cases in this hall contain personal be <<>> longings of the First Ladies and colorful Presidential china. A diorama portrays the Oval Drawing Room in the White House as it looked in 1814 after it was redecorated by Dolley Madison and Benjamin Latrobe. This hall was developed by associate curator Margaret Brown Klapthor in cooperation with exhibits chief Benjamin W. Lawless. The new hall of American costume adequately presents for the first time the museum’s rich and extensive collection of men’s, women’s and children’s clothing of the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. It includes accessories of dress such as shoes, hats, handkerchiefs, parasols, and gloves and such decorative accessories as fans, embroidered and beaded purses, and many fine examples of period jewelry. Many of the clothing items are exhibited on mannequins which portray the hair Empire style of dress, 1800-1830, displayed in hall of American cos- tume. 744-993—64 <<>> dress appropriate to the costumes, and some are shown in groupings in partial room settings. Rare articles of everyday wear and early underclothing are included. Among the outstanding materials presented in this graphic review of four centuries of American dress are 18th-century wraps, a freedom suit given to a young man who had completed his apprenticeship to a cabinetmaker, an 18th-century wedding gown of blue silk, children’s clothing of the period 1800 to 1830, a woman’s exercise suit of the mid-19th century illustrating dress reform of the period, a dressmaker’s salon of the 1880's, and several knee-length “flapper” dresses of the decade of the 1920’s. Illustrations of various types of clothing selected from paintings and engravings dealing with the history of costume supplement the original specimens on display. The entire hall has been one of great interest for historians, artists, and students of American style and taste. The exhibits were planned and installed under the direction of associate curator Anne W. Murray. Hall design was by exhibits designer Robert M. Widder; graphics design by exhibits designers Judith Borgogni, Virginia Mahoney, and Deborah Bretzfelder. The hall of historic Americans, opened to the public on June 30, is unlike other museum presentations in the United States. A portion of the hall is devoted to a capsule history of American political campaign techniques, tracing their development from the era of genteel “parlor politics” to the modern political use of the mass media of communications. A dramatic political parade illustrates the development of Presidential campaigning between 1840 and 1930. Papier-maché marchers carry authentic political banners, pennants, and torchlights, and wear campaign clothing and badges. In association with the parade are exhibited a log cabin such as might have been erected as a Whig party headquarters during the “Log Cabin and Hard Cider” campaign of 1840, a front porch similar to those used by candidates during the McKinley and Hardink ears, and a rear platform of a railroad observation car representing the “‘whistle stop” period of campaigning. An adjoming area, illustrating the important relationship between politics and the press, radio, and television, includes microphones used by Franklin D. Roosevelt in delivering his historic radio fireside chats and by Dwight D. Eisenhower during the 1952 campaign. Other exhibitions in this hall interpret the contributions to American history of certain major institutions and groups of people. Personal memorabilia suggest the roles of Congress and the Supreme Court, scholars, and “men of enterprise.” A former United States Senate subway car is exhibited, while one of Robert C. Goddard’s early experimental rockets indicates the impact of scientific scholarship upon American lfe. The influence of “Americans abroad” is suggested by an exhibition of gifts received by eminent <<>> n_seuagionciuemecetnon a aniniiee eae aetreatet ee eee the hall of American costume. ited 1 exhib 1920-— sea Os quien! erative atte rhe pet in rhvere was probably the dreamer te —— Flapper styles, <<>> Americans from foreign leaders, including a Sicilian cart given to General George C. Marshall in gratitude for American aid to Italy during the years after World War Il. Several exhibits display memorabilia of distinguished families and individuals—the Washington and Adams families, Ulysses S. Grant, and Abraham Lincoln. In one of these a newly sculptured figure of Abraham Lincoln, bearing the business suit which he wore on the day of his assassination, stands in a setting which closely resembles that shown in several Mathew Brady photographs of the President. Planning and installation of the exhibits in this hall were under the direction of curator Wilcomb 8. Washburn, assisted by associate curator Keith E. Melder and assistant curator Herbert R. Collins in association with exhibits designer Robert Widder. At the west end of the west corridor on the second floor of the new museum the heroic statue of George Washington by Horatio Greenough was in place on opening day, flanked by eight cases containing some of the great national treasures in the museum’s collections, to be displayed later in the series of halls interpreting the growth of the United States in the area adjoming the statue. These historic objects include George Washington’s uniform, the portable writing desk of Thomas Jefferson, Joseph Henry’s electromagnet, the model of the cotton gin built by Eli Whitney, Isaac Singer’s first patent model of the vertical-needle sewing machine, the field compass used by William Clark, Lewis Evans’ General Map of the Middle British Colonies in America, and George Catlin’s brushes and palette, and his oil painting of his Indian hero, Four Bears, second chief of the Mandans. Marked progress was made in the preparation of the hall of philately and postal history, scheduled for opening in September 1964. During March a Stickney rotary printing press of 1914, a Stickney coiling machine of 1920, and related stamp production equipment were transported to the museum and moved into position in the stamp production alcove of this hall by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Frames and panels illustrating the postal history of the District of Columbia anda special exhibition of the Emma Batchelor airmail collection were installed. The series of exhibits on the history of the world’s posts were produced, cases for models of vehicles used to transport the mails and for postage meter and canceling machines were delivered to the hall, and the refinishing of the pull-out frames which will exhibit by country the systematic national postage stamp collection was completed. This hall has been planned by curator Carl H. Scheele with the assistance of museum technician Francis E. Welch in collaboration with exhibits designer John Clendening. From June 5 through July 5, 1963, an exhibition of stamps of the world, issued in support of the Freedom from Hunger Campaign, was <<>> displayed in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries building with the cooperation of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Crown Agents. Postmaster General J. Edward Day addressed the visitors who attended the opening of this exhibition. A comprehensive exhibition of the postage stamps of Israel was held during November and December 1963. Associate curator of numismatics Elvira Clain-Stefanelli, as a permanent delegate of the United States to the International Federation of Medal Editors, prepared a special display of contemporary medals produced in the United States during the past five years for the international medal exhibit arranged by that federation in The Hague, Netherlands. With the assistance of the Medallic Art Company and the United States Mint she also prepared a display of contemporary United States medals for the hall of monetary history and medallic art. A temporary display illustrating the history of the traveler’s check, including James C. Fargo’s announcement of 1891 initiating the issuance of traveler’s checks by the American Express Company, was installed in February. On March 27 a special exhibition of original mint models and designs for the John F. Kennedy half dollar was placed on display through the good offices of the Director of the Mint, Miss Eva Adams, and the Superintendent of the Philadelphia Mint, Mr. Michael H. Sura. In April a large display of the currencies of the Austrian Empire was installed, employing material recently received from the Mortimer and Anna Neinken collection. Associate curator of musical instruments Cynthia Adams Hoover organized a recital in July 1963, given by Mr. and Mrs. Efrim Fruchtman of the University of Arizona, who played music for viola da gamba and harpsichord, using the museum’s restored harpsichord made in 1745 by Johannes Daniel Dulcken of Antwerp. In May 1964, Miss Sylvia Kenney, associate professor of music at Bryn Mawr College, presented a lecture-recital, “Paintings, Chronicles, and Stylistic Criteria as Guides to the Performance of 15th Century Music.” Armed Forces History The Star-Spangled Banner, the original flag which, during the attack of the British fleet on September 13-14, 1814, flew over Fort McHenry at Baltimore, Md. and inspired Francis Scott Key to write the words of our National Anthem, was installed in the Museum of History and Technology when the new building was opened to the public in January. Although this most important museum object relating to the history of the United States had been exhibited in the Arts and Industries building ever since it was presented to the Smithsonian Institution in 1912, it is now for the first time displayed at full <<>> length, undraped, and in a place of honor befitting its importance as a national symbol. The visitor entering the museum from the mall gains an inspiring view of the Star-Spangled Banner hanging on the north wall of the 3-story central rotunda in an alcove specially lighted to present the flag most effectively. The flag is displayed over a supporting fabric that is large enough to indicate its original dimensions of 30 by 42 feet and that completely covers the specially designed metal grid which holds the flag and its supporting fabric in a vertical position. The flag hangs in an atmosphere of filtered air carefully controlled for the proper temperature and humidity. The only other exhibit in the spacious hall is a small case, to the right of the flag containing a lithograph of the bombardment of Fort McHenry, a British 13-inch bomb of the type fired at that time, and a rare early edition of “The StarSpangled Banner.” The flag was prepared for exhibition and installed under the direction of Edgar M. Howell, curator of military history, with the assistance of Grace Rogers Cooper, curator of textiles. Miss Doris Bowman, Mrs. Lois Vann, and Miss Maurine Collins of the division of textiles assisted in preparing the backing for the flag prior to its installation. The setting for the flag was designed by Walker Cain of the firm of Steinmann, Cain and White, architects for the new musuem. The cased exhibit was designed by Robert Widder. Development of exhibits for the armed forces history halls has occupied the entire professional staff of the department. Installation of free-standing cases and other elements in the halls devoted to chronological history of the armed forces, to firearms and ordnance, and to the display of the Revolutionary War gondola Philadelphia was inaugurated in the spring of 1964 preparatory to the opening of the major portion of this extensive series of exhibits next spring. ‘The displays for the chronological series have been designed by exhibits designers Fred C. Craig and John W. Brown. During the year rigged models of the Union gunboat Carondelet, the Confederate ironclads Virginia and Albemarle, as well as half models of the Kearsarge, Brooklyn, San Jacinto, and Housatonic were lent to the Department of the Navy for Civil War exhibits at the TruxtunDecatur Museum and the Naval Exhibit Center. German and Japanese naval uniforms and side arms of World War II were lent for an exhibition on the Normandy and Okinawa landings, held at the Truxtun-Decatur Museum. A model of Robert Fulton’s Steam Battery (1814) was lent to the Peabody Institute of Baltimore for its exhibit on Baltimore during the War of 1812, held in conjunction with the annual meeting of the Company of Military Collectors and Historians, <<>> Accessions During the Fiscal Year 1964 The national collections were increased during the past year by 1,234,752 specimens. These materials were distributed among the ten departments as follows: anthropology, 38,484; zoology, 196,427; botany, 30,427; entomology, 241,947; mineral sciences, 9,186; paleobiology, 376,007; science and technology, 1,361; arts and manufactures, 2,697; civil history, 336,393; and Armed Forces history, 1,823.

One, received by transfer from the River Basin Surveys, Bureau of American Ethnology, included 18,603 specimens from the Medicine Creek Reservoir, Nebr., and comprises one of the largest and most complete collections extant on the prehistoric agricultural peoples of the Central Plains in the 9th to 14th centuries. The second lot is from the 1931-82 investigations of the Bureau of American Ethnology at Signal Butte, a key stratified site in western Nebraska with a series of occupational levels spanning the period from 2600 B.C. to about A.D. 1700. Other noteworthy accessions include 1,157 pieces collected by the Bureau of American Kthnology from the Parita and Santa Maria areas in Panama; a group of handaxes from the Fezan and microlithic blades from Tripolitania, Libya, presented by James R. Jones of the U.S. ATD mission to Libya; and an exceptionally well-preserved Egyptian cat mummy donated by Edith Goldsmith of Methuen, Mass. In the division of ethnology, a large portion of the year’s acquisitions were obtained for use in the new hall of cultures of Africa and Asia. Noteworthy Asian accessions included : 79 specimens representing Chinese opera, obtained through the aid of the Chinese Nationalist Government; 116 items relating to agriculture and daily life in Japan, obtained from the Japanese Association of Museums; a Hindu village altar assemblage of 40 specimens, obtained with as <<>> sistance of the government of Orissa, Bhubanaswar, and the Crafts Museum, New Delhi; 255 Burmese items obtained from the collector, Brian Peacock, University of Rangoon; 226 specimens mostly from Isfahan and dealing with Iran textile printing, collected and donated by Mrs. Ethel J.

Henri Lhote. Among the accessions in the divisions of physical anthropology are two casts of trephined skulls from Peru, one with five and the other with seven openings, which will be used for exhibit purposes as examples of the number of trephine openings which have been made in an individual’s skull during his lifetime. One of two Kraho Indian face masks from central Brazil is to be incorporated in the map of peoples of the world in the hall of physical anthropology. Other accessions include skeletal materials from Virginia, Maryland, Latin America, and Alaska. Zoology The total of 14,869 mammals accessioned is well in excess of the number for any recent year and reflects a currently accelerated proeram of field activity. More than 5,000 specimens came from Africa and southwestern Asia, collected by field parties working under the cirection of Dr. Henry W. Setzer. Tropical American areas continued to produce large numbers of specimens. Dr. Charles O. Handley’s general collections from Panama and Arthur M. Greenhall’s large collection of bats from Trinidad are especially noteworthy. Important accessions also came from Mexico, Nicaragua, British Guiana, and Brazil. Of unusual interest and scientific value are a rare marbled cat from Sumatra presented by Kent Crane, a series of baboons obtained by Clifford E. Sanders in Northern Rhodesia, South American marmosets received from the National Institutes of Health Primate Colony at the San Diego Zoo through Robert W. Cooper, and a good series of canids allied to red wolves from the south-central part of the United States received through the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. <<>> To the collection in the division of birds were added 45 accessions including 2,690 bird skins and 332 anatomical specimens. Accessions worthy of special note include 547 bird skins, 26 skeletons, 1 egg and 1 nest from Panama, received through Dr. Alexander Wetmore; 791 bird skins, 85 skeletons, and 1 nest from North America, by transfer from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; 301 bird skins from Formosa, by transfer from the Department of Defense, Department of the Navy, U.S. Naval Medical Research Unit No. 2, through Dr. R.

Valuable specimens were also received from Ross Socolof, Gulf Fish Hatchery, Palmetto, Fla., and from Mac Entel, Sumac Trophical Fish Hachery, Miami, Fla. Of special importance to the division of marine invertebrates was the addition of 27,003 specimens of invertebrates from the Antarctic collected by Dr. Waldo L. Schmitt, former curator of the division and now research associate. Dr. Schmitt participated in the U.S. Antarctic Research Program aboard the USS Staten Island and made these collections during the Palmer Peninsula-South Shetlands Survey in 1963. Many existing gaps in the national collections of the fauna of these regions have now been filled. Acquisition from Dr. Rh. A. Boolootian, Department of Zoology, University of California, Los Angeles, of the A. Weir Bell collection of Oligochaeta, comprising about 900 slides of sections of these worms, a catalog, and a library of separates of scientific articles dealing with the oligochaetes, was a significent event during the year. A collection of 2,216 specimens of polychaete worms from the Bering Sea was received from Dr. Donald J. Reish, Long Beach State College, Long Beach, Calif. In the division of mollusks, 187 accessions comprising 69,288 specimens were received during the year; in addition, 334 specimens from previously recorded accessions were added, the largest annual increment since 1953-54. This large increase is due mainly to three large accessions: the personal collection of Arnon L. Mehring consisting of approximately 23,800 specimens; a collection of 17,300 specimens mainly from Okinawa, Ryukyus, purchased through the Chamberlain fund; and 7,600 specimens gathered by Dr. Harald A. Rehder in Tahiti utilizing funds provided by General Frank R. Schwengel in memory of his wife, Jeanne S. Schwengel. Other large accessions include an exchange of 1,350 specimens, with the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, and a gift of 1,480 specimens from Duncan Emrich of Washington, D.C. Holotypes were received hie the Institute of Marine Science, University of Miami, through . F. M. Bayer, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Laboratory, ae Mississippi, through Harvey R.

Kennedy, presented by the Department of Defense. <<>> o2 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1964, To the division of numismatics was added an original pewter striking of the noted Castorland token made for the officers of the French colony established at Carthage, N.Y., 1796, and a rare pattern half dollar of 1916, both given by Ben Douglas. Other outstanding additions to the United States series were a $20 goldpiece in high relief and a $10 goldpiece originally owned by Henry Hering, who completed the design of these coins in 1907 for Augustus St. Gaudens, and Mr. Hering’s notes concerning the history of this gold coinage and the interest in it of President Theodore Roosevelt; these were the gift of Stack’s of New York. A die used by the J. J. Conway Co. of Colorado in the striking of a private $5 goldpiece was donated by Robert Bashlow. Joseph B. Stack gave tintypes of the Bechtler family, well-known private gold coiners from North Carolina, a daguerreotype of John Little Moffat, a leading coimer in San Francisco during the gold rush, and the notebook of the mint engraver, J. B. Longacre, concerning the design of the 1856 flying-eagle cent. An important collection of silver bars, bullet money, and various forms of media of exchange used in Siam and China was donated by Mrs. F. C. C. Boyd; Harvey Stack gave the Edith and Jean Jacques Ture collection of necessity pieces issued in France and the French colonies during the 1914-26 period. Willis du Pont added 645 coins struck during the second part of the reign of Catherine II of Russia and 210 Russian silver and bronze medals. Mrs. Wayte Raymond gave 1,167 coins of the world struck during the 19th and 20th centuries. Mr. and Mrs. Mortimer Neinken made an important contribution of a specialized collection of checks of United States banks and a collection of nearly 10,000 items of European paper currencies and documents of value. The first instance of the use of paper in coinage, a quarter gulden in cardboard issued in Leyden in 1573 during the seige by the Spaniards, was a gift from Dr. V. Clain-Stefanelli. To the division of philately and postal history Baron Takaharu Mitsui of Tokyo, Japan, donated an outstanding group of early letters and documents pertaining to the private posts of 19th-century Japan and the early government postal service of that country. Morrison Waud of Chicago, Ill, gave a large and comprehensive collection of United States newspaper stamps, proofs, essays, and forgeries and 669 examples of stamped revenue paper. Mr. and Mrs. R. O. D. Hopkins donated a collection of essays and die proofs of the stamps of China and placed additional material of that nature on loan. >> Model of Robert Fulton’s 26-gun Steam Battery (1814), the first steam man-of-war. <<>> covers, many of which bear special postal markings and commemorative stamps. Charles H. Wuerz, Jr., continued to contribute stamps of Siam in an effort to complete that section of the National Postage Stamp collection. Armed Forces History A fine example of a Gatling gun was presented by the Armed Forces of Honduras. Mrs. George C. Marshall presented several uniforms worn by General of the Army George C. Marshall during World War II. The division of naval history made significant additions to the national collection of historic warship models while projecting further units required to complete the hall of armed forces history. Particularly notable was a rigged model of Robert Fulton’s Steam Battery, the world’s first steam man-o-war, which was built by Adam and Noah Brown in 1814 for the defense of New York. Plans for this 26-gun blockship were provided by Howard I. Chapelle who in 1961 discovered a contemporary draught of the Steam Battery in the Danish Royal Archives at Copenhagen. By happy coincidence, the division of naval history also received an original Fulton draught of the armored torpedo boat J/ute, presented by the family of George F. Brown, descendants of her versatile builders, the Brown brothers of New York. ‘The emergence of the steam navy was further represented with the completion of a superb model of the side-wheel steamer Powhatan which served with Commodore Perry in the opening of trade with Japan. Through the generosity of the U. S. Coast Guard, the division of naval history received a fully-equipped beach cart of the type used by the Life Saving Service for offshore rescue, a set of range lights from Alaska, and an oil painting by Hunter Wood of the topmast schooner Massachusetts, first cutter commissioned by the early Revenue Marine. A patent model of the revolutionary K—1 firing device, the heart of the antenna mine employed in the North Sea mine barrage during World War I, was presented by Mrs. Ralph C. Brown, widow of its eifted inventor. Vivid memories of the battle of Midway were evoked by the bullet-torn flight jacket and combat decorations donated by George H. Gay, sole survivor of Torpedo Squadron 8. Among the more important objects acquired by the section of underwater exploration during the year are ship’s fittings from a wreck site in Bermuda believed to date from the 1560’s. These include a bar shot, several single blocks, two parrels, small and medium-sized deadeyes, and a large collection of ceramic sherds some of which will yield nearly complete vessels when reconstructed. <<>> Care of Collections Accessions TransLent for (transacferred to study to tions) Exchanged other Govinvestigators 1964 Received on with other ernment and other Specimens Departments (new) loan institutions agencies institutions identified ANIME ATRO}ONONOBY, 5 6 o 6 6 123 3 504 0 473 256, 100 HO OLO Leas fo lke kw) ee 591 4,203 3,380 198 29,249 40,774 JDIMIOWMONOAY.5 5 6 6 6 6 381 0 3,488 1 D0, (a5) 0 SOLEMN Nem teas! as. ge, ius 378 4,047 16, 807 0 29, 226 17, 843 IPAIAOIONOIOAY 6 6 o 6 6 ¢ 149 2,787 2,619 0 9, 733 31, 562 Mineral Sciences... . 329 1 1, 589 140 717 92 Science and Technology . 291 2 13 1 ad 0 Arts and Manufactures . 203 2 0 0 34 917 (Citvilll Iason s G5 6 6 573 a2 0) 0) IOs AH, isis Armed Forces History. . 119 IG 4 0 91 315 MOTE re yeti ess ce ay ey iil, Aa¥vb We, Beth — B40) 1 IGS B45 BE} Anthropology The custodial and other departmental activities concerned with maintenance and preservation of collections are still hampered by construction work, but improvement over the preceding year can be noted in several particulars. In the division of archeology, all storage units from the third floor corridors have been moved to permanent quarters on the fourth floor; the special air-conditioned textile room at the east end of the attic has been occupied; metal shelving for heavy stone objects has been installed behind the exhibits area in hall 21; and much useful space for storage of drawers, trays, and pasteboard boxes has been gained by partial flooring over the skyhght space. White paint on the walls and added lighting fixtures have very greatly improved working facilities in the division’s attic space. In the division of ethnology, the movement of North American Indian collections into the north attic has been almost completed; and the arrival of a supply of storage cases has made possible a significant improvement in the previously crowded conditions here. The rearrangement of the African and Asian collections on the fifth floor of the east wing continued; special attention was given items requiring protection. A temporary workshop for cleaning and restoration of objects needed for exhibits was set up in the attic, and a crew of college students worked on a contract basis under technical supervision of Mr. Charles Olin of the Conservation Laboratory. Continuation of this successful enterprise is anticipated. <<>> In the division of physical anthropology, a double move of the brain collection and the Aleutian and Kodiak Island materials, was occasioned by preparation for renovation of the present quarters of the division. The repair and restoration of damaged anthropological specimens, including newly received objects and others from older collections continued to occupy the time of exhibits specialist A. J. Andrews; approximately 200 archeological, ethnological, and skeletal items were treated in his laboratory. As in previous years, several tasks were done for other units in the Smithsonian Institution, and technical information on preservation and conservation methods was suppled to individuals outside the agency. Scientific illustrator George R. Lewis completed 465 stippleand 87 line-drawings, 25 maps and charts, 2 signs and labels, 1 color and 6 detailed pencil drawings, most of which will be included in archeological and ethnological manuscripts intended for publication. Zoology The rapid growth of the collections, the necessary disruptions of normal routine procedures by the building construction program, and the anticipated move to new quarters combined to create unusually dificult problems in caring for the zoological collections. In the division of mammals, good progress was made by museum aide B. T. Lovinggood in rearranging the alcoholic collections, and about two-thirds of this material is now properly organized; newly accessioned material was integrated as it was received. The cardindex system was reorganized and brought up to date. The renovation of the west attic was completed and the skeleton collection that had been evacuated from that area in the previous year was returned ; its final arrangement cannot be made until the part of the attic area now occupied by other divisions is made available. In the division of birds, museum specialist Theodore S. Bober has had major responsibility for the care of the collections. With his assistance, Dr. George E. Watson planned for the installation of 400 new cases in the skin and skeleton collection. Under the direction of the latter, summer intern David A. Bratley rearranged the entire library collection, rare folio volumes and field catalogs now being stored in locked cabinets. Dr. R. L. Zusi supervised arrangements for the installation of equipment in the alcoholic storage room and has developed plans for rearranging the anatomical collections. A geographic punch-card file of species needed for the skeleton and alcoholic collections is in preparation, and lists of desiderata will be prepared for field parties in various parts of the world. Research <<>> associate Alexander Wetmore, and Dr. Lester L. Short, Jr., John W. Aldrich, and Mrs. Roxie Laybourne of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have generously provided identifications and information to the division of birds. Dr. Short assumed major responsibility for the care of the collection of North American birds. In the division of reptiles and amphibians, museum aide Dorsey Williams completed an inventory of the entire collection of reptiles and amphibians. Most of the specimens misplaced in previous years have been located and properly filed, recent acquisitions have all been cataloged, and only a limited number of specimens remain to be identified. With the assistance of a temporary aide in the division of fishes, about 50 percent of the glass jars in the alcohol storage area were examined and the alcohol content replaced or altered to proper level and strength. This project will be continued and should be accelerated by the addition of another aide in the division. About 47 new storage tanks were acquired, replacing about twice as many crocks. This project is progressing slowly; there remain 132 crocks from which the loss of alcohol endangers the specimens stored in them. A new system of cataloging collections, involving 3 x 5’’ cards, has been devised and will be operational by July 1964. Critical shortage of space in the existing alcohol stack in the division of marine invertebrates has resulted from the acquisition of large collections from the Antarctic and from the Atlantic coast, and from the return of large segments of collections which had been sent to specialists for identification. These collections have necessitated the use of temporary storage in other divisions and at the Sorting Center. Dry collections, now stored in a number of areas in the Natural History Museum, were almost completely reorganized for moving them into the west wing. The worm groups were rearranged and put in proper order, collections of stomatopods were expanded and reorganized, and nondecapod crustacean types were segregated and reshelved systematically. Museum specialist Henry B. Roberts, who bears primary responsibility for the organization of the move of the collections, spent considerable time in designing and planning new cataloging procedures. Mrs. Emily Mandelbaum, museum technician, made great progress in the cataloging of the polychaete collection and spent considerable time in rearranging general collections. Miss Maureen Downey, museum technician, continued her work on the echinoderm collection and arranged publications, manuscripts, and other documents in preparation for the move of the division. Museum technician Roland Brown assisted in the movement of collections in the alcohol stacks and processed incoming collections; and museum technician T. P. Lowe completed the organization of the coral collections 744-993-645 <<>> and of the stony hydroids. Much progress was made in examining the alcoholic collections for state of preservation and transferring specimens from the older ground-glass sealed bottles to clamp-top, rubber sealed jars. Summer intern James Casey worked principally on the divisional library, bringing the filing of separates and their card indexing up to date. Summer intern Richard Laub arranged the Tertiary fossil corals, a collection that had never been organized. With the addition of new quarter-unit cases in the division of mollusks, the storage facilities for the reference collection is adequate, and progress has been made in distributing the previously crowded portions of the collection in the new cases. A rearrangement of certain families that have been sorted on a geographical basis to a systematic one was 2lso initiated. The helminthological collection, both slides and alcoholic specimens, in the care of the Beltsville Parasitological Laboratory, is in excellent condition. Entomology In the division of Coleoptera, with the aid of a National Science Foundation grant, several thousand specimens of the scarab genus Atsenius were mounted. labeled, and placed in museum drawers, and 7,000 specimens of Neotropical water beetles were prepared for critical study and placed in standard museum drawers. An additional 9,500 specimens of water beetles are on hand and preparation of them is continuing. David R. Rentz, while serving as a summer intern, incorporated certain orthopterous insects, accumulated over a period of many years, with the main series of our determined collection. This major project required the sorting of 146,000 specimens and arranging them in their proper places under appropriate names. This part of the collection now occupies 400 drawers in 19 standard cases. Marked improvement in the collection of Neuroptera, Trichoptera, and allied groups occurred again this year with the addition of more than 20,000 specimens. Among these were 291 species, 36 genera, and one family not previously represented in the national collection. This year emphasis has been placed on reorganization and rehabilitation in the Hemiptera collection. Mrs. Florence A. Ruhoff has heen instrumental in accomplishing this task. The major heteropterous families Lygaeidae, Miridae, Reduviidae and Coreidae, as well as most of the small families, were rearranged and labeled to conform to a uniform system now in use, and in the process numerous small lots of specimens were incorporated. The rearranged part of the collection now occupies 779 standard drawers. Research associate Carl J, Drake actively continued improvement of the Drake collection <<>> by a program of exchange and cooperative publication with other workers. By this means he acquired numerous types and specimens of other species not previously represented in the national collection. Research associate C. F. W. Muesebeck continued to bring improvement and growth to the collection of braconid wasps by an active program of research and by his cooperative work with students in other institutions. In the division of Lepidoptera the condition of the collection continued to improve during the year. Mrs. Joan Ledbetter, museum aide, completed labeling and transferring to standard museum drawers the following three collections: Ernest Shoemaker collection, 4,100 specimens; J. C. Hopfinger collection, 5,500 specimens; Graham Heid collection, 1,500 specimens. In addition, Mrs. Ledbetter spread and labeled 1,100 specimens obtained on recent expeditions. More than 1,600 Microlepidoptera from Rapa, mostly Tortricidae, have been prepared, labeled and placed in the collection. The Neotropical Yponomeutidae were rearranged and properly labeled in accordance with contemporary systems, and the Western Hemisphere Stenomidae were appreciably augmented by the identification and addition of many species not previously represented. Summer intern Jay C. Shaffer amalgamated three separate collections of pyraloid moths totaling 11,500 specimens into a single, wellorganized unit, making available heretofore nearly maccessible data. Restoration and rehousing of the oldest holdings of Arachnida and Myriapoda continued. Many old specimens have been restored by the use of trisodium phosphate, rebottled and relabeled. More than 306,000 ticks were restored during the past year by museum aide Mrs. Sophie Lutterlough, using this procedure, and the treatment of the tick collection is continuing. Many old or damaged microscopic preparations have been disassembled and remounted. During the year Mrs. Mary Quigley mounted 5,079 miscellaneous insects and summer intern Mrs. Kathleen Rentz prepared 3,283 miscellaneous insects, all of which were incorporated in the collection. Botany The major activities in caring for the permanent collections and the processing of new material are summarized in the following table: 1962-638 1963-64 Specimens and photographs mounted ... . 30, 441 21, 734 Specimens repaired .. . .

Paleobiology In the division of paleobotany museum technician James P. Ferrigno, under the supervision of associate curator Francis M. Hueber, segregated approximately 48 percent of the primary and secondary type specimens from the general] paleobotanical collections. The types are being checked for accuracy of labeling by comparing them with original illustrations and descriptions, and are being arranged alphabetically under the heading used in their original publication. After completion of segregation, the individual groups of specimens will be arranged in chronological order by publication, thus eliminating the problems raised by changes in taxonomic classification of particular species, and also by changes of interpretation of geologic age of the specimens. Curatorial work in the invertebrate paleontology collections centered on the carding of type specimens. Much progress was made in building a card file of all types as an addition to the standard cataloging procedures now in use. The cards serve as a ready reference for specimen control and as the primary source of data for a published catalog, the first section of which is in the final stage of preparation. The conodont and Paleozoic nautiloid collections are carded and the manuscript preparation is undergoing final typing; the blastoid, cystoid, and echinoid type collections are carded and waiting for the recording of the crinoids prior to publication. Dr. P. M. Kier completed the integration of the U.S. Geological Survey collection of fossil echinoids with the museum collection, making for the first time a usable biologically arranged collection of all specimens available at the museum. The arrival of some new cases has enabled storage of part of the extensive stratigraphically arranged reference collections. Museum specialist Frederick Collier and museum technician Lorenzo Ford checked the geographic arrangement and placed more than 250 quarter-unit cases of drawers containing tens of thousands of specimens. These collections are now readily available for the first time since the move to the east wing storage area where they had been stacked. ; Dr. Richard Cifelli developed a significant advance in the preparation and sorting of Foraminifera from general plankton collections. Concentrations of the calcitic skeletal parts of the planktonics are <<>> rapidly achieved by ignition: the sample is washed with distilled water and dried, it is then burned at a temperature of 500° C. to remove all organic matter, leaving foraminiferal tests unaltered. Because the average plankton sample consists of a large variety of organisms with high protoplasm-skeletal ratios, the work of separating the Foraminifera from the mass with needles has been a tedious and timeconsuming task. With this new technique, the number of samples handled is greatly mcreased over a given time. In vertebrate paleontology the recent acquisition of storage cases to completely utilize the space provided on the first floor of the east wing now permits better distribution and organization of the collections and, as planned, provides for a normal increase in the collections for several years. Transfer to this storage area of the large residue of fossil fish and the smaller collections of fossil birds, formerly on the steel range of the old storage area, has freed the latter for the rapidly expanding collections of fossil marine mammals and has also permitted better care of the large series of titanothere skulls, formerly on display but now stored in temporary, inadequate racks on the ground floor of the old area. Laboratory technician removing plankton sample after ignition in muffle furnace located in foraminiferal laboratory. Sample contains concentrate of shelled organisms (mostly Foraminifera, Pteropoda, some Radiolaria) mixed with fine ash. <<>> The construction of covered racks with sliding doors over the quarter-unit cases of each third double row, now two-fifths completed, provides adequately protected space for storage of most of the larger dinosaur bones, fish slabs, and plaques. An important beginning was aiso made in similarly protecting the numerous, bulky remains of the larger mammals, such as the proboscideans, bison, ground sloths, and titanotheres. Mineral Sciences During the year both the polished and thin-section collections of meteorites were photographed, and the task of assembling this material into albums was started. Because the meteorite collection previously had been stored in a non-air-conditioned area, protecting the specimens against corrosion due to humidity had always been a constant problem. The collection now is housed in a room with controlled 25 percent relative humidity and the polished specimens are much more stable. Some of the specimens most susceptible to corrosion have been sectioned and mounted in plastic. Others which proved difficult to preserve are housed in cabinets in which electric lights are burned continuously to further reduce the humidity. Science and Technology Considerable staff time in the division of physical sciences has been devoted to planning the move into the reference area in the new museum. Details of the actual move were handled by scientific instrument repairer C. KE. Dennison. Because of disruption of the old laboratory and incomplete equipment in the new one, most complex restoration work has been suspended. Scientific instrument repairer C. G. Smith restored a beautiful antique quadrant, and experimented on new types of lacquer for preserving indefinitely the surface of restored instruments. In the division of mechanical and civil engineering the transfer of offices and collections permitted a much more rational scheme of specimen storage; special shelving has made the reference collections more readily accessible for the staff as well as for study by interested visitors. Every effort was directed also to the restoration of specimens scheduled for exhibition, particularly in the section of tools and of light machinery and horology. The National Air Museum facility at Silver Hill completed the restoration of the Pelton-Riedler pumping engine, and that of the large American diesel engine. With the movement of the collections into the new building, the division of electricity now has a true reference area where the objects are easily available. Most of the items chosen for exhibition have <<>> Technical laboratory, division of civil and mechanical engineering, provides facilities for repair and restoration of specimens such as antique machine tools and steam engines. been renovated. Electronic equipment repairer Roy V. LaRoche made considerable progress in restoring television sets to operating condition, and museum technician Elhot Sivowitch completed the arduous task of cataloging the radio tubes from the Franklin Wingard collection. In the division of medical sciences, museum technicians George Ford and Everett Jackson aided in the transfer of the medical, dental, and pharmaceutical collections and fixtures to the new museum. The operation was completed without a single instance of breakage or damage to the collections which are composed largely of fragile material and drug containers. In the division of transporation, three carriage restorations, the Bayly gig, Saltonstall buggy, and the Stillman landau, were completed. Arts and Manufactures The reference collections of the division of agriculture and forest products have been moved to the new museum. ‘The entire reference <<>> collection has been consolidated, and the new storage units used for patent models afford better accessibility and added protection. In the division of graphic arts, the Franklin press was dismantled, thoroughly cleaned, and reassembled preparatory to being placed on exhibition. The same procedure was followed with the Gordon-type job press, the linotype machines of 1884 and of 1920, the monotype caster and keyboard, and the Bruce typecasting machine. Reorganization of the hand-process prints continued; several hundred prints were covered with acetate sheets and about two hundred prints were matted. Museum technician Elhott Hawkins examined and reorganized the illustrations file and established a new motion picture section. Associate curator Eugene Ostroff, continued his long-range program of reviewing the entire collection. Special attention was given to the editing and preservation of photographs, the entire collection having been brought together in the air-conditioned storage facilities of the new offices. Removal of the collections of manufactures and heavy industries from the Arts and Industries building and their rearrangement in the new museum was accomplished by museum technicians John C. Carter and Francis Gadson with a minimum of interruption to current work. Mr. Gadson skillfully restored and repaired items in the collections of this and other divisions of the department, while Mr. Carter maintained effective control over the material being assembled for five halls of greatly diverse character. The division of textiles collections of more than 40,000 cataloged items were moved to their new location in the new museum, under the supervision of museum technician Everett Parker. During this fiscal year, 205 items from the textile collections were successfully cleaned in the textile laboratory by Miss Maureen Collins. This work has been confined to the use of proved methods for cleaning undyed items of cotton and linen that are of a size that can be safely handled in the limited space available. Both nonionic detergent and a neutral soap have been used successfully with distilled water. Various methods of hand blocking have been perfected for finishing these textiles; a heated iron is never used. For articles of this limited size, the results have been excellent and the smoothed end product is far superior to the most carefully ironed one and with less chance of damage from the drying effects of the heated iron. The articles included lace, needlework, crochet, damask, and plain fabric in caps, edgings, handkerchiefs, bodices, sleeves, pockets, and so forth. The work of the textile laboratory included several items received from other divisions. Screening is necessary to properly support fragile fabrics in the water solutions. The saran screening formerly used has been re <<>> nnn! Coverlet weaving is demonstrated in special exhibition hall to Washington, D.C., youth group. placed by fiberglass screening, which, it was found, is more pliable, does not ravel, and is easier to handle than the saran. For one piece of Valenciennes edging so badly deteriorated that the screening did not offer sufficient support, the lace was stitched between layers of crepeline and then between layers of screening. The cleaning procedure could then be followed as usual. The lace having been cleaned, the screening was removed and the crepeline left for ease in future handling. Civil History Museum technician Richard Muzzrole cleaned, renumbered, and recataloged the museum’s large collection of whaling irons, correlating specimens with data published in the descriptive catalog of the collections sent from the United States to the International Fisheries Exhibition in London in 1885. This well-documented collection has thus been revived to its original usefulness after being moribund for 80 years. Museum technician Jay Scott Odell carried on a continuing conservation program for the musical instrument collection in the new musical instruments laboratory, where installation of equipment has <<>> commenced. Expert consultants called in to advise on restoration included Donald Warnock of Cambridge, Mass., for plucked strings; Charles Fisk of Gloucester, Mass., for pipe organs; and Robert Sheldon of Arlington, Va., for brass instruments. The division of cultural history has been participating in the experimental use of the Termatrex system of data retrieval as applied to museum objects. The experiment, undertaken by means of an anonymous private foundation grant to the Henry Francis du Pont Winterthur Museum, involved several participating institutions. It was inaugurated with an opening seminar at the Winterthur Museum, attended by curator C. Malcolm Watkins, who read a paper “Problems in Cataloguing Museum Objects.” The goals of this experiment are simplified and controlled recording of the collections, efficient locating of objects, and a vaster capability in extracting data concerning the collections. The move of the civil history collections from the Arts and Industries building was carried out successfully and all the items in scattered and unsatisfactory storage areas were brought together in a more efficient, centralized area in the new museum. ‘The details of the move of the First Ladies materials are typical of the care and effort that was put into the movement of other materials. The most difficult task was moving the mannequins. Special carrying cases were planned and executed by associate curator Margaret B. Klapthor and the exhibits staff so that the mannequins could be moved without removing the dresses. The ingenious cases permitted the dressed mannequin to be lifted from the old exhibit case directly to the carrying case where it was carefully screwed to the bottom, and braced at the waist. The loaded case was then rolled to the loading platform, placed on a truck, and brought to the new building, where it was unloaded directly into the exhibition case. Moving the 38 mannequins into the new hall, which took four people about ten days, was accomplished without any damage to either the dresses or the mannequins. Tests were conducted by the division of numismatics in cooperation with the Bureau of Standards in order to determine metallurgical details in connection with a platinum 50-cent piece dated 1814, a Russian 3-rouble piece, and two $5 gold pieces issued in 1849 by the Massachusetts and California Gold Company. X-ray radiographic and diffraction techniques were used, and the experiments were continued in the spectrochemical analysis section of the Bureau of Standards. Through the cooperation of the Naval Research Laboratory, it was possible to conduct comparative analyses of an ancient quarter-shekel in silver, struck during the first year (A.D. 66/67) of the Jewish War against the Romans, and of a silver shekel struck during the third year <<>> of the war. The composition of the quarter-shekel was found to be silver, with 2 to 3 percent copper and approximately 1 percent arsenic, according to X-ray fluorescence analysis. The shekel was made instead of practically pure silver, with 1 percent copper and no other elements present. The interpretation of the X-ray diffraction patterns allows some conclusions concerning the manufacture of the pieces, the quarter-shekel apparently being worked cold, while the shekel planchet was subject to a long annealing process with very little, if any, cold work. These analyses are of significance for a better knowledge of ancient metallurgical and striking techniques, and are being expanded in our own research laboratory. Armed Forces History Extensive progress was made in the restoration, renovation, and rearrangement of the collections, and repair of specimens designated for exhibit in the new museum was completed. Under the direction of museum specialist Donald E. Kloster, the military reference collections were moved into the new building. The Continental gondola Philadelphia was installed on its permanent base, located appropriately adjacent to the halls of ordnance and underwater exploration. Grapeshot and other small objects were recovered from the gunboat’s mud-caked inner bottom during cleaning operations preparatory to the application of final preservatives. Exhibits specialist Howard P. Hoffman completed an exhaustive survey of the Philadelphia, preparing detailed plans from which will be constructed a rigged model representing this vessel as she appeared at the battle of Valcour Island. Meanwhile, periodic hygroscopic tests have been made to insure maintenance of satisfactory humidity conditions in the vicinity of the gunboat. Museum aides John L. Rawls and Harold W. Ellis continued to organize by exhibit groups and refurbish specimens and graphic items in the naval collections pending their installation in the new hall of armed forces history. Substantial reorganization of the uniform storage and ship plans archives of the division of naval history was initiated following movement of the reference collections to new quarters. Separation of the underwater collections from those of the division of naval history was completed, and the new facilities have permitted a more efficient and readily accessible arrangement of the materials. Preservation of the collection is carried on continuously, the new laboratory permitting a speed-up of these processes. Museum specialist Alan B. Albright adapted a completely successful routine for the use <<>> of the heavier molecular weights of polyethylene glycol in the preservation of ancient, water-soaked wood, as follows: After the object has been cleaned and towel-dried, the weight of the specimen is recorded. At this point, careful measurements of all of the important dimensions are made; to obtain critical measurements when the specimen is of awkward shape and/or precise measurements are difficult, several pins are inserted deep into the wood and the distance between them is measured. A second measurement, made when the preservation process is completed, will show any change. The wood is next submerged in 100 percent ethyl alcohol three or four times its volume (to prevent evaporation) and left there for at least three days, after which the wood is dried and reweighed, and the weight recorded. The above step is repeated several times, using new alcohol, until at least a 15 percent reduction in weight is obtained; a higher percent reduction, if possible, is desirable. The lowest weight recorded is the base from which wax absorption is calculated. Next, a solution of polyethylene glycol 4000 and ethyl alcohol is prepared, in the ratio of 1:1 by weight, in a container of glass so that the level of the liquid can easily be seen and recorded. After the solution is thoroughly mixed and heated to 65°C., the object is placed in it and the container is put in a 65°C. electric oven. Sometimes it is necessary to submerge the wood with weights; if so, the weights are placed in an inconspicuous spot, for they often tend to discolor the wood. As the alcohol in the solution slowly evaporates, the polyethylene glycol content rises and the level of the liquid will show less and less change. After 20 or 30 days, all the alcohol will have evaporated and the remaining liquid should be 100 percent polyethylene glycol. At this point, several ounces of the solution are removed and allowed to cool in a shallow dish at room temperature; it should harden within an hour. If it does not, the wax is retested after a wait of several days. When it tests hard, the process is completed, but as a safety measure, a further wait of four or five additional days before removing the wood is advisable. When the object is removed from the solution, it is rinsed for 2 or 3 seconds in hot water, dried with a paper towel or lint-free cloth, and weighed. This final weight should represent an increase of at least 20 percent over the minimum weight recorded earlier. The sample is then placed in a dustfree area to cool. Usual precautions against damage from insects, dust, rats, and rust are taken on a regular schedule. <<>> 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. >> Anthropology Chairman Waldo R. Wedel completed a study of the prehistory and aboriginal ecology of north-central Colorado in continuation of his researches on the archeology of the Plains. He also continued his account of the 1961-62 archeological-paleontological site near Littleton, Colo. His study of a prehistoric Wyoming bison kill assumed new interest in hght of recently determined radiocarbon dates which moved back some 2,000 years the date for the outstanding series of artifacts collected at the site. Archeology.—Curator Clifford Evans and research associate Betty J. Meggers largely completed a major monograph on two phases in the prehistoric cultural development of coastal Ecuador. Inclusion cf 22 radio-carbon dates of shells and charcoal establishes the earlier phase (Valdivia) at 5150 to 3400 years ago. Curator Richard B. Woodbury, who joined the division of archeology December 15, 1963, continued his studies of prehistoric water management in arid regions of the southwestern states and in Mexico. In this connection, he made two field trips to the Tehuacén Valley in southern Puebla, Mexico, to examine evidences of prehistoric irrigation and farming techniques. His conclusion that large scale irrigation there has been carried on for the past 2500 years makes this perhaps the longest record of irrigation in the New World. Associate curator Gus Van Beek, in collaboration with Drs. Glen H. Cole and A. Jamme, completed a preliminary report on an archeological reconnaissance of Wadi Hadhramaut, South Arabia. Dr. Van Beek also spent more than a month in an archeological reconnaissance in Yemen at the invitation of the Yemen government. He discovered two new paleolithic sites and visited three previously known preIslamic sites. Museum specialist George Metcalf continued his studies of a large collection of 11thand 14th-century archeological artifacts from central Nebraska. Radiocarbon dates supplied by the Smithsonian’s carbon dating laboratory are adding new significance to the project. Collaborator C. G. Holland continued to study the prehistory of southwestern Virginia as revealed by data and collections from 161 sites visited in 1963. Ttesearch associate Neil M. Judd completed a monograph on archeological materials from Chaco Canyon, New Mexico. During the summer of 1963, research associate John M. Campbell carried out an archeological and ecological survey of the Koyukuk River drainage in northern Alaska, aided by a grant from the Arctic Institute of America, and continued preparation of a monograph on Nunamiut Kiskimo prehistory. <<>> INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH “all El 2 == Chinese calligraphy is explained in new hall of cultures of Africa and Asia. Ethnology.—Curator Saul H. Riesenberg completed a monograph on the aboriginal political organization of Ponape, Caroline Islands. In collaboration with Drs. Evans and Meggers, he has underway a study of the megalithic structures on the Nan Madol, Ponape, the site of a joint ethnological-archeological field program last year. Associate curators Gordon Gibson and Eugene Knez were heavily involved throughout the year in research directed toward completion of the exhibit hall on the peoples of Asia and Africa. Dr. Gibson devoted a substantial part of this time to a search of the literature on Africa in an effort to identify accurately objects selected for exhibition. Dr. Knez completed most of the exhibit units on Asiatic cultures in the hall, which opened informally at the end of the year. Associate curator William Crocker continued work on the Canela Indians in northeastern Brazil. He spent two weeks with the tribe in July 1963, and three months early in 1964. At year’s end he was again living among the Canelas. Physical Anthropology.—Curator J. Lawrence Angel completed a manuscript on the anatomy of the hip joint; another on human skeletons associated with extinct animals at the Tranquiliity site in California; and assembled data for a paper on hyperostosis spongiosa to be included in a volume on paleopathology. He advanced his longterm program on the anthropology of chronic disease, involving restudy of students at Jefferson Medical College who had been studied <<>> several years ago. Another aspect of this program is on aging, pathology, and mortality among prehistoric and ancient Greeks, Eskimos, and U.S. Whites. With his technical assistant Donald Ortner, Dr. Angel worked out a special blank which will permit rapid coding of data for computer analysis. Associate curator Lucile E. Hoyme was in England at the beginning of the year, studying human skeletal collections and visiting laboratories of physical anthropology. Particular attention was given to a series of 19th-century skeletons of known name, age, and sex at St. Bride’s Church, Fleet Street, London. In December Dr. Hoyme received a Ph. D. degree from Oxford University, since which time she has continued her studies of skeletal variation and participated in the training of visiting scholars. Because of her radiological skills, she has been able to contribute to study and identification of anthropological and other materials in and outside the Smithsonian Institution.

Zoology Chairman Horton H. Hobbs, Jr., studied the freshwater decapod crustaceans on the island of Dominica, West Indies, as a participant in the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of that island. He has continued his investigations of crayfish; he has made substantial progress on a revision of some of the Mexican and Cuban ostracods; and he completed a manuscript on new entocytherids from Virginia. Senior scientist Fenner A. Chace, Jr., completed a study on one species of shrimp in the northeastern Pacific. He also largely com <<>> pleted a report on the decapod crustaceans of St. Helena in the South Atlantic. Mammals.—Curator David H. Johnson, although responsible for the general development of exhibits in the newly opened hall of osteology, found time to study the distribution of hares and certain species of bats in southeastern Asia, and to continue his general survey of the mammals of that area. Direction of the field parties collecting specimens of mammals and their ectoparasites in Iran and southern Africa occupied much of the time of associate curator Henry W. Setzer; this field program is carried on with the cooperation of the Army Medical Research and Development Command. Dr. Setzer joined the African party in September; from late October to mid-December he directed the field operations in Iran. He worked in the museum collections identifying mammals of Kgypt and the Sudan collected by a Naval Research Unit. Associate curator Charles O. Handley, Jr., continued his monographic research of the bat genus Artibeus by a study trip to the Universities of Kansas and New Mexico, and to Texas AGM University. In newly opened hall of osteology, differences in skeletal structures and postures of man and manlike apes are related to their specialized ways of life. <<>> At the First International Symposium on Cetacean Research he presented a paper embodying some of his research toward a monograph on the pigmy sperm whales. From January to March he collected mammals, especially bats, in the high mountain region of Darién, Panama, at the boundary with Colombia. Among the many valuable collections were two species of bats new to Panama, as well as rare marsupials, shrews, and rodents. Research associate Robert A. Traub of the University of Maryland School of Medicine collected vertebrates and their ectoparasites in Pakistan in continuation of his studies of rickettsial infections. Birds.—The Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program, under the direction of curator Philip S. Humphrey, has increased greatly in scope since its inception in October 1962. It is chiefly concerned with the distribution, migrations, and ecology of central Pacific sea birds. Collaborative relationships have been developed with the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, the Bernice P. Bishop Museum, the State of Hawaii Division of Fish and Game, and others. Many members of the field staff in this program are graduate students gathering data for doctoral dissertations. The Rockefeller Foundation provided support for a field study enabling Dr. Humphrey to work with the Belém Virus Laboratory, Fundacao Servico Especial de Satide Publica, and the Museu Paraense “Emilio Goeldi,” Belém, Brazil. This cooperative field study deals with the relationship of birds and arthropod-borne virus diseases. Dr. Humphrey continued his studies of plumage succession in birds and on the distribution, ecology, and classification of Patagonian and Brazilian birds. Associate curator George E. Watson completed his dissertation on the ecology and evolution of passerine birds on the islands of the Aegean Sea, and received from Yale University a Ph. D. degree in June. He was on loan to the Office of the Secretary of Defense as official United States observer on the Chilean-Antarctic Commission Expedition, 1963-64. His main purpose on the expedition was to gather specimens and to make photographs for use in preparing an identification guide to Antarctic birds. He visited Nelson, Robert, Greenwich, and Deception Islands in the South Shetland group, and localities on the Antarctic Peninsula and near Anvers Island. The last two weeks of December were spent in the forested lake region of Llanquihue Province, Chile, and he collected specimens farther south, near Punta Arenas and on Navarino Island. Associate curator Richard L. Zusi, who joined the staff September 3, 1963, undertook research on the collections of the Museum of Zoology, University of Michigan, in November and consulted with Dr. R. W. Storer concerning their joint research project on the myology of <<>> INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH a7 Structural similarities of birds that are underwater swimmers are compared and explained in this osteology exhibit. grebes. From January to April, Dr. Zusi was in Dominica as a participant in the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of that island. Professor D. S. Rabor of Silliman University, Philippine Islands, was appointed honorary research associate in September 1963. Prof. Rabor is continuing research on the ornithology of the Philippine Islands. Dr. Robert W. Ficken of the University of Maryland, also a new honorary research associate, is engaged in extensive field and laboratory research on the behavior of wood warblers. In continuation of his field work on the bird life of the Isthmus of Panama, research associate Alexander Wetmore concentrated his efforts during January through March in Darién Province, mainly in the heavy rain forest adjacent to the Colombian boundary. The results were most successful, for specimens were obtained and observations made on species that have been little known in the Republic, and several new records of South American birds not previously known from Panama were established. Research associate Herbert G. Deignan studied at the Museum from mid-January to late April, concentrating his efforts on the NAMRU collections of birds from Formosa and specimens collected in Viet Nam and Cambodia by Bernard Feinstein, former museum specialist in the division. <<>> Research associate Herbert Friedmann continued his work on brood parasitism and completed a manuscript dealing with evolutionary trends in the avian genus Clamator. Reptiles and amphibians.—With the collaboration of Dr. C. J. Goin, work on the bulletin on Colombian frogs by curator Doris M. Cochran has progressed rapidly and should be completed during the next fiscal year. Fishes.—Curator Leonard P. Schultz has continued his studies of the frogfishes and is actively engaged in the direction of a research program on sharks. Mrs. Marilyn H. Malin, research assistant, is maintaining an up-to-date documented file of shark attacks throughout the world, a project partially supported by the Office of Naval Research. Dr. Schultz’s manuscript, “The Family Sternoptychidae,” is being published by the Sears Foundation in volume 4 of “Fishes of the Western North Atlantic.” Associate curator Robert H. Gibbs, Jr., has continued his research on the comparative anatomy and systematics of tunas and of the family Scombridae, on the systematic and ecology of stomiatoid fishes, the systematics of the western Atlantic flying fishes, the distribution of surface fishes from the vicinity of the Gulf Stream, and the systematics of the subgenus Cyprinella of Notropis. During the past year, Dr. Gibbs participated in Cruise 3 of the International Indian Ocean Expedition and studied in laboratories in Europe and Asia from August to December. Purpose of the cruise was to sample deep-sea ichthyofauna of the western Indian Ocean and to relate the distributions of species and biomass to the physiochemical and biological properties of the water masses sampled in a north-south transect. Associate curator Ernest A. Lachner participated in Cruise 4B of the R/V Anton Bruun, purpose of which was to evaluate the relative distribution and abundance of benthic organisms inhabiting the continental shelf and upper slope of the Arabian Sea. Enroute to the Indian Ocean and return, Dr. Lachner examined specimens and arranged for the loan and exchange of collections in Europe, Israel, India, Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, and at Stanford University, California. While in Australia, Dr. Lachner revised his manuscripts on the Gobiidae and Eleotridae and also expanded his study of the diskfishes. In cooperation with Mr. Robert Jenkins, graduate student, Cornell University, Dr. Lachner has undertaken a study of the systematics of the American barbeled minnows. They visited the Virginia Polytechnic Institute in March and prepared more than 5,000 specimens of fishes for exchange with the U.S. National Museum. Associate curator Victor G. Springer has expanded his studies on sharks, completing revisions of three genera. During the year, he visited Stanford University and the British and Paris Museums where <<>> he studied blennioid fish types and other specimens, bringing close to completion a revision of the genus Hntomacrodus. He has begun an osteological study of blennioid fishes and has accumulated data and material for revisions of several genera. Associate curator William R. Taylor continued his study of the families Ariidae and Aspredinidae for the publication, “Fishes of the Western North Atlantic,” and of the genus Votwrus. He has developed new techniques in the preparation of specimens for osteological study that involve the use of solutions of the enzyme trypsin buffered with sodium borate. This treatment, which removes the muscle tissue, has proved to be effective in making both preserved and fresh specimens translucent—the connective tissue, cartilage, bones, viscera, and major nerves remaining. Associate curator Stanley H. Weitzman completed a study of two genera of Asiatic minnows, three manuscripts dealing with South American catfishes, and a study of the osteology and relationships of the characid subfamilies Lebiasininae and Erythrininae. He began esteological studies on the isospondylous oceanic fishes of two other families of fishes (Astronesthidae and Gonostomatidae).

Research associate J. A. F. Garrick returned to Victoria University, Wellington, New Zealand in November and is continuing his world revision of carcharhinid sharks. During May 1964 he visited Australia to study specimens of sharks that were not available in museums of Kurope, America, or Africa. When completed, this critical revision of carcharhinid sharks will be the first ever attempted. Marine Invertebrates.—Curator Donald F. Squires continued his investigations on southern ocean corals. Considerable progress has been made in this study, supported by the National Science Foundation, and facilitated by the assistance of Mr. Ian W. Keyes, senior paleontological technician, New Zealand Geological Survey, who worked as research assistant to Dr. Squires during the year. Much of the preliminary compilation of data for a study of the evolution and <<>> distribution of New Zealand Tertiary and modern corals has been completed. In joint authorship, they have finished a review of the corals of the New Zealand shelf. During the year, a study of the biomechanics of the scleractinian coral J/anicina areolata was completed, as were several other studies of fossil and Recent corals. Continued progress was made on the monographic studies of the deep-water corals of the family Micrabaciidae and on the complex group of species comprising the “lacerate Flabellum.” From December to February, Dr. Squires was a participant on the New Zealand Oceanographic Institute cruise “Macquarie Gap” which made geological and biological studies in the area of the Campbell Plateau and the Subantarctic Islands of New Zealand. Visits were also made during the year to the Museum of Comparative Zoology and the American Museum of Natural History where types were examined and from which specimens of deep-water corals were obtained for further study. Associate curator Thomas EK. Bowman completed an account of an arostrate population of the planktonic calanoid copepod Acartia lilljeborgii, from St. Lucia, West Indies. He described a new genus and species of cirolanid isopod from Madison Cave, Va., the first troglodytic cirolanid to be found in the United States outside of Texas; completed the description of a new anthurid isopod from the Caguanes Caves of Cuba; and described a new mysid crustacean, abundant in Lake Pontchartrain, La. With L. J. Lancaster, he prepared a description of a bloom of the planktonic blue-green alga Skujaella, from the Tonga Islands. Work was begun on an account of pelagic amphipods of the family Hyperiidae from the northeastern Pacific. Associate curator Charles EK. Cutress, Jr., continued his studies of several families of anemones. During most of April and May, he collected marine materials in Hawaii and coastal California, for documenting future exhibits in the museum. He was accompanied by Mr. Kjell Sandved who acted as official photographer. Following this trip, Mr. Cutress visited the Friday Harbor Laboratory of the University of Washington where he engaged in studies to clarify the taxonomy of the swimming anemones Stomphia. Associate curator Raymond B. Manning, who had joined the staff of the division in June 1963, in September studied stomatopod crustacean specimens in the American Museum of Natural History, the Vanderbilt Marine Museum on Long Island, the Museum of Comparative Zoology, the Yale Peabody Museum, and the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. In May 1964, Dr. Manning joined a research team from the Institute of Marine Science, University of Miami, for a 20-day offshore scientific cruise in the Gulf of Guinea. Following the cruise he spent several days collecting inshore marine invertebrates near Dakar, Senegal, before visiting natural history museums in Paris, <<>> Leiden, and London to study types of stomatopod crustaceans. During the year, Dr. Manning finished most of a manuscript revising the stomatopods of the western Atlantic, collaborated with L. B. Holthuis of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, in Leiden, on a contribution on the stomatopods for the “Treatise of Invertebrate Paleontology,’ and completed two additional manuscripts dealing with these animals. Associate curator Marian H. Pettibone carried on preliminary work with a large collection of polychaete worms from the Canadian Arctic, collected by E. H. Grainger. She continued her long-range study of the polychaete worms from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the Chesapeake Bay, completed a revision of the polychaete family Pilargidae, including a description of three new species from Virginia, and conducted further work on the Paraonidae, including the preparation of descriptions of two new species from Virginia and Florida. Museum specialist Henry B. Roberts continued his research on Recent and fossil crabs. In addition to studying a new species of crab from the Miocene of Virginia, he completed a description of a new genus of Cretaceous crab, and has compiled a checklist and bibliography of the Pleistocene decapods of the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain. Research associate Waldo L. Schmitt continued his studies on the American commensal crabs, family Pinnotheridae, and completed the revision and updating of a popular account of the “Crustaceans” prepared several decades ago for the original Smithsonian Scientific Series. As an associate editor for biology for the Antarctic Research Series, sponsored by the American Geophysical Union, he has been encouraging systematists to undertake monographic reports to be followed by handbooks dealing with the invertebrate marine fauna of Antarctica. David L. Pawson joined the staff as associate curator of marine invertebrates May 20, 1964. His field of special interest is echinoderms, in particular the echinoids and holothuroids of the subAntarctic. Mollusks.—Curator Harald A. Rehder continued work on a study of the marine mollusks of Polynesia. He sorted and arranged the material he gathered in Tahiti last year, identified and studied specimens from Tonga and Hawaii, and initiated a bibliography of Polyhesian marine malacolegy. Notable progress was made on his monograph of the Harpidae and on a study of certain species of the family Volutidae. Associate curator Joseph P. E. Morrison has continued his research of the brackish water mollusks of New Caledonia, studying collections of the family Melampidae in the Academy of Natural Sciences of <<>> = * e « ~ ° . ~~ ° >° * . . ca * >° -- Specimens recently received from International Indian Ocean Expedition being measured by associate curator Joseph Rosewater for his revision of family Tridacnidae. Philadelphia, and a collection gathered by him in 1960-61. His work on the brackish water mollusks of the Gulf States was continued, and he completed a manuscript describing new species of the families Hydrobidae, Pyramidellidae, and Mactridae, from Louisiana. Associate curator Joseph Rosewater spent three months as a participant in the International Indian Ocean Expedition Auxiliary Cruise “A” aboard the R/V Ze Vega. A large collection of mollusks was made from the shores of western Malaysia and Thailand and from the Mentawai Islands southwest of Sumatra, Indonesia. A brief visit was also made to the British Museum (Natural History) where he studied types of the family Littormidae. He is continuing studies of Indo-Pacific mollusks, especially the families Littorinidae and Tridacnidae; a monograph of the latter is nearly complete. A taxonomic study of the subfamily Periplomatinae has also been initiated.

Entomology On July 1, 1963, the division of insects was separated from the department of zoology and became the department of entomology. The five divisions in the department are: Neuropteroids, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Myriapoda and Arachnida, and Hemiptera. Chairman J. F. Gates Clarke conducted intensive field studies of Microlepidoptera on the island of Rapa in French Polynesia from September 1 to December 15. In addition to providing a basis for a better understanding of Micronesian Microlepidoptera, it was hoped that the collections would indicate substantial relationship to these insects in New Zealand, southern South America, and South Africa. The food plants of more than half of the approximately 75 species collected were determined, and Mrs. Clarke reared in the field 760 specimens, of which the immature stages were preserved for study. Dr. Clarke continued his studies of several genera and families of Neotropical Microlepidoptera and preparation has continued of materials which will be used for critical studies of Micronesian Lepidoptera—a long-range project. Lepidoptera.—Associate curator Donald R. Davis continued his studies of the Western Hemisphere bagworms (Psychidae) ; his revision of the group was published. Dr. Davis has also completed a revision, employing statistical analyses, of the Yucca moths (Prodoxidae) of the Western Hemisphere. During July and August he, with Dr. Duckworth, engaged in field research on the latter group. In preparation for revisionary studies of two insect families, Dr. Davis studied the collection at the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh, and the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. <<>> Associate curator W. Donald Duckworth advanced toward his goal of a world monograph of the family Stenomidae with the publication of one paper on a new Brazilian moth species and the preparation of three other papers. In the Neotropical area alone are more than 1100 species of this large family whose taxonomy, evolution, and geoeraphic affinities interest Dr. Duckworth. In the course of his studies of the family with respect to these subjects, types from Vienna and Munich, as well as many others which are more accessible, are being or have been examined; field study was undertaken jointly with Dr. Davis to northeastern Mexico, where important distributional data were gathered; and in April and May Stenomidae were studied and collected in the Panama Canal Zone. William D. Field, associate curator, continued his revision of the butterfly genus Vanessa and of the lycaenid genus Calycopis. In July he gathered significant distributional data and specimens in the mountains of New England. Coleoptera.—Curator O. L. Cartwright was in London at the end of the year to study type specimens at the British Museum (Natural History) in connection with his continuing research on the scarab beetles of the Bahamas and of Micronesia. Water beetles of the Neotropics continue as associate curator Paul J. Spangler’s special interest. In July and August he spent seven weeks in Mexico and the Southwestern States collecting valuable materials for his studies. In the area of Mexico where the Nearctic and Neotropical faunas are contiguous and intermingled, most collections are useful for evaluating the effects of this overlapping; it is significant to note that here Dr. Spangler recorded six genera for the first time for Mexico and at least twenty species new to science. Previously unknown data with respect to the immature forms of most species collected were obtained, and many individuals of the rare semiaquatic beetle family Georyssidae were taken. He has also continued his research on the adult and immature stages of the water beetles of Puerto Rico and with Mr. Hugh Leech, California Academy of Sciences, he is engaged in a joint revision of the genus Hydrochara. Dr. Spangler also contributed significantly to the collections by his use of a battery of Berlese Funnels, which permit the operator to collect minute insects from decaying leaves. More than 38,000 insects were obtained by use of this apparatus by Dr. Spangler and in the Protura alone, the national collections were nearly tripled during the past year. Myriapoda and Arachnida.—Curator Ralph E. Crabill, Jr., concentrated most of his attention on a general revision of the order Geophilomorpha, his study of the chilopod faunae of New Zealand and Australia has progressed, and he is presently reviewing generic and familial delimitations, which is possible only after thorough study <<>> of type species. To accomplish this end he has visited insect collections at Harvard University, in Munich, and in London. Neuropteroids.—The caddis flies (Trichoptera) continued to attract the research attention of associate curator Oliver S. Flint, Jr., and he published or completed several papers on Nearctic members of the group. Dr. Flint has begun to devote increasingly large parts of his research to the Neotropical Trichoptera and two papers on species of this region were published or completed this year. At the beginning of the year Dr. Flint collected and studied in the field on Jamaica, Dominica, St. Lucia, and Grenada; the first collections of Trichoptera in the Lesser Antilles resulted from this trip. From April through June he spent in field studies on Dominica as a participant in the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of that island. Hemiptera.—Dr. Richard C. Froeschner joined the staff as associate curator in charge of Hemiptera on August 26, 1963. Visiting investigators.—Among visiting scientists who studied the entomology research collections during the year were: Coleoptera: Dr. Ross Arnett, Brother Bernardine, Mr. Lee Herman, Mr. John P.

Swallen continued his investigations of the grasses of southern Brazil, and published two papers, the first on the Gramineae, in “Vegetation and Flora of the Sonoran Desert,” by Forrest Shreve and Ira L. Wiggins, and the second on new species of Digitaria and Trichachne. In September and October he visited South Africa at the invitation of the National Botanic Gardens of South Africa for the Golden Jubilee Celebration of the Gardens. The celebration included over a month’s tour of South Africa, and afforded an excellent opportunity for selective collecting to obtain a number of species new to the U.S. National Herbarium. Phanerogams.—Curator Lyman B. Smith continued his studies in the Bromeliaceae and in the flora of Brazil. In collaboration with The George Washington University, he supervised the completion of a master’s thesis on the Apocynaceae of Burma by Ma Mya Bwin anda doctoral thesis on Z/ex in North America and the Guayana Highland by Gabriel Edwin; both papers were based largely on material in the National Herbarium. Associate curator Velva E. Rudd continued her work on the papilionoid legumes of Mexico, bringing the manuscript of part I to completion. Dr. Rudd also continued her research on the myrmecophilous acacias of Mexico and Central America and on the Leguminosae of the Yucatan Peninsula, and began monographic studies on the tribe Dalbergieae. In connection with her studies in the Leguminosae, she 744993— 64 <<>> visited the herbarium of the Instituto de Biologia in Mexico City, and in September attended the Second Mexican Botanical Congress in San Luis Potosi. Associate curator John J. Wurdack continued his review of neotropical Melastomataceae, with special emphasis on collections from southern Ecuador and northern Peru. In connection with this work and with his studies on the flora of the Guayana Highland, Dr. Wurdack visited the New York Botanical Garden in June and November. Recently he undertook the preparation of the Melastomataceae for the “Flora de Venezuela,” a project involving over 700 species. Associate curator Stanwyn G. Shetler continued his biosystematic and monographic studies of North American Campanula, with special emphasis on the Harebell Complex (C. rotundifolia and related species). Also continuing were floristic and phytogeographic studies of the Alaskan flora, with emphasis on the Seward Peninsula, the south slope of the Brooks Range, and the Pribilof Islands. Between June 17 and August 31 he spent six weeks collecting plants in the Brooks Range, Alaska. Dr. Wallace R. Ernst joined the staff July 29, 1963, as associate curator of phanerogams. During the years he completed a manuscript on the genus /’schscholzia in the South Coast Ranges of California, and with Dr. H. J. Thompson of the University of California at Los Angeles, one on the pollination patterns and the taxonomy of the genus Eucnide. Dr. Ernst began a research project with Dr. A. C. Smith toward a flora of Fiji with studies of the Araliaceae and Guttiferae. In August he attended the AIBS meetings at Amherst, Mass., where his joint paper with Dr. H. J. Thompson won an award in taxonomy. On April 1, Dr. Ernst left for three months to participate in the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of Dominica, British West Indies. Associate curator Dan H. Nicolson, who joined the staff January 5, 1964, continued twin projects begun before coming to the Smithsonian, a preparation of scripts for all genera of Araceae for the “Index Nominum Genericorum,” and a revision of the genus Ag/laonema (Araceae). In early May, with Stanwyn Shetler and David Lellinger, he made a reconnaissance visit to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park for the Smithsonian exhibits program. Research associate José Cuatrecasas, concentrated on the preparation of a revision of Colombian Compositae of some 800 species. Research associate Kittie F, Parker, continued her monographic studies of several genera of American Compositae. Grasses.—Associate curator Thomas R. Soderstrom participated in the New York Botanical Garden expedition to the Wilhelmina Mountains, Surinam, from June te October. Before joining the expedition <<>> party, he spent nine days in Trinidad collecting and studying the grasses of the island. With Dr. Henry Decker, Ohio Wesleyan University, he published a paper on Swadlenia, a new name for the Californian genus /’ctosperma, and another on eederochiloa, a new genus of dioecious grasses from Mexico. His studies of some collections of British Guiana grasses resulted in the description of six new species, to be published in the Memoirs of the New York Botanical Garden. Research associate F. A. McClure, continued his studies relating to the redefinition of the genera of the Bambusoideae, especially the bamboos of the Old World. A taxonomic paper, giving subgeneric status under the genus Zhamnocalamus to two species of hitherto uncertain taxonomic position is being prepared under joint authorship with W. C. Lin of the Taiwan Forestry Research Institute. Ferns.—Curator C. V. Morton continued his studies of the ferns of tropical America, especially an account of the genus Blechnum in Brazil, based mostly on the large collections made by Father Raulino Reitz in southern Brazil. He continued his study of the photographs he made of fern types in European herbaria; the work of labeling the duplicates is being continued under a new grant from the National Science Foundation. Mr. Morton spent three weeks in July in libraries in London and Paris checking bibliographic information for this work, and five days in April at Harvard University and the New York Botanical Garden. Jointly with Mr. Lellinger, he prepared a treatment of the genus Aspleniwm in Venezuela, based largely on the extensive collections assembled from the Guayana Highlands region by the New York Botanical Garden and the Chicago Natural History Museum; this work will be pnblished in the Memoirs of the New York Botanical Garden. Associate curator David B. Lellinger, who joined the staff August 26, 1963, continued with his revisions of the genera Ji/della and Cheiloplecton, began a study of Pterozonium, and accumulated materials for revisions of two groups of species in the genus Checlanthes. He spent brief periods in research at the herbaria of Duke University, North Carolina State College, Michigan State University, and the University of Michigan. Cryptogams.—Curator Mason E. Hale continued monographic studies on the lichen genus Parmelia, with special reference to subgenus Xanthoparmelia. Elizabeth J. Denison, supported by National Science Foundation funds, assisted with technical problems from January to May 1964. Dr. Hale made a five weeks’ trip to the major European herbaria to examine and to test chemically type specimens and general herbarium collections. Field studies of populations of Xanthoparmelia were conducted in Minnesota, New England, and the <<>> southern Appalachians. A large manuscript on subgenus Amphigymnia and a summary of subgenus Parmelia are now in press. Associate curator Harold E. Robinson conducted field exploration for bryophytes during three months in Dominica as a member of the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey. He continued floristic studies of the bryophytes of tropical America, especially southern Brazil and Venezuela. Associate curator Paul Conger continued studies on a large collection of British, Australian, and New Zealand Antarctic diatoms, both plankton and sediments. He completed a manuscript on a new species of epibenthic marine diatom from Honolulu harbor, Hawaii. Associate curator Richard E. Norris, before resigning in August, completed two cruises on the R/V Anton Bruun in the Indian Ocean and made a number of collections of marine algae and plankton, which are now being processed at the Smithsonian Oceanographic Sorting Center. Plant Anatomy.—Curator William L. Stern was on leave from the Smithsonian Institution, having been transferred temporarily to the International Civil Service so that he could spend a year in the Philippines as a Forestry Officer with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Associate curator Richard H. Eyde completed a comparative anatomical investigation of the flower in Garrya, an American genus of debated affinities, concluding that the closest allies are the Old World cornaceous genera Aucuba and Griselinia. He continued research on the comparative anatomy of fossil and modern members and allies of the dogwood family, with emphasis on the genera Corokia, Mastixia, and Alangium. Visiting investigators——Among those who visited the department were the following: Bernice G. Schubert, Harvard Univ.; B. L. Turner, Univ. of Texas; D. B. Ward, Univ. of Florida; Dana Griffin and Aaron J. Sharp, Univ. of Tennessee ; C. L. Lundell, Texas Research Foundation; R. H.

Paleobiology A plan to divide the department of geology into two departments, mineral sciences and paleobiology, was approved on August 20, 1963, and the reorganization became effective on October 15, 1963. The diversity of disciplines in the old geology department made the partition logical and desirable. The purely physical subjects of mineralogy, petrology, and meteorites are now separated from the biological subjects of paleontology and ecology. The department of mineral sciences consists of three divisions, mineralogy, meteorites, and petrology. In hall of fossil mammals, fourth and last of series of murals by artist Jay H. Matternes depicts an assemblage of Pliocene animals. <<>> The department of paleobiology consists of four divisions: Invertebrate paleontology, vertebrate paleontology, paleobotany, and sedimentology. Dr. G. A. Cooper, chairman of the department of paleobiology, in collaboration with R. E. Grant of the U.S. Geological Survey, nearly completed the manuscript on the Permian brachiopods of the Glass Mountains, Tex. In March and April Dr. Cooper went to New Mexico with Dr. J. T. Dutre of the Geological Survey, to study local Devonian materials. Paleobotany.—Associate curator Francis M. Hueber has continued his investigations of the Lower Devonian flora of the Gaspé and northern New Brunswick regions of Canada. Preparations of petrifactions collected during August from one locality near Dalhousie, New Brunswick, have helped clarify certain anatomical] details of a profern which is being studied cooperatively with Dr. Harlan P. Banks of Cornell University and with Dr. Suzanne Leclereq of the Université de Liege, Belgium. The final details have been obtained for completing the redescription and reconstruction of Psilophyton princeps var. ornatum; the results of these findings demonstrate the need for broad taxonomic changes among the fossil Psilopsida. New reports of genera heretofore known only from European Devonian deposits are being established by the continued laboratory investigation of the material. Excellent preparations of petrified materials have been made by museum technician James P. Ferrigno. Dr. Hueber’s studies, in collaboration with Mr. Leeds M. Carluccio and Dr. Harlan P. Banks of Cornell University, of fossil plants presently referable to the genera Archaeopteris and Callixylon are soon to be published. This investigation has pointed up the need for a revision of the genus Archaeopteris. Dr. Walter H. Adey, who specializes in Tertiary and Recent Marine algae, joined the staff as associate curator of paleobotany on June 30, 1964. Invertebrate Paleontology.—Curator Richard S. Boardman and museum specialist George T. Farmer completed their collecting of the bryozoan fauna of the Middle Ordovician of Oklahoma. Mr. Farmer is using a part of the fauna for a doctoral dissertation and has made good progress on its preparation. Research assistant Dr. John Utgaard is working in cooperation with Dr. Boardman on a revision of the genera of the Paleozoic Bryozoa. Two manuscripts have been completed and Dr. Utgaard has made good progress on the Cyclostomata. Museum specialist Frederick Collier has completed the tedious preparation, working on his own time for a master’s thesis on the rhomboporoid Bryozoa, of some Middle Devonian strata of New York State; <<>> and he has started collecting biometrical data for a taxonomic treatment. Associate curator Porter M. Kier spent June and part of July studying the living habits of echinoids in the Florida Keys. Dr. Ker, accompanied by Dr. Norman Sohl of the U.S. Geological Survey, used scuba diving equipment to observe species distribution relative to bottom conditions and depth. Large collections were made for comparative investigations, and individuals were studied both in their natural environment and in aquaria. Dr. Kier continued these investigations in the month of April, diving off Dominica as part of the Bredin-Archbold-Smithsonian biological survey of that island. Scuba and other diving techniques were employed to make collections and note environmental relationships of the echinoid populations. Museum investigations enabled Dr. Kier to complete a major manuscript on the evolutionary trends in Paleozoic echinoids. Associate curator Richard Cifelli continued his studies of the distribution and abundance of Recent planktonic Foraminifera. These studies are being pursued in relationship to the circulation and general hydrography of the north Atlantic. In a concurrent investigation, in the equatorial Atlantic, Dr. Cifelli is making an analysis of submarine cores which is concerned with problems of correlation of the cores by Foraminifera and paleoclimatic interpretations. In a joint study with Dr. T. G. Gibson of the U.S. Geological Survey, Dr. Cifelli is conducting investigations of the stratigraphic succession of Tertiary planktonic Foraminifera in the coastal plains of eastern United States. Dr. Cifelli completed two papers now in press, one on planktonic Foraminifera from the western Atlantic and the other on concentration techniques of separating shelled organisms from plankton. Associate curator Erle G. Kauffman has continued investigations of the evolution and taxonomy of Cretaceous pelecypods in North America, In particular the Inoceraminae and Ostreidae. Dr. Kauffman, accompanied by Mr. G. R. Paulson, made a two months’ collecting trip to the mid-continent and eastern Rocky Mountains. More than 25 detailed stratigraphic sections were measured and an estimated 4,000 specimens were collected; these latter will be of great value in distributional and evolutionary studies, as well as for determining the biostratigraphic utility of the species. Also, studies have been started on the Cretaceous pelecypods of the Caribbean area. Two weeks in March were spent with Dr. Norman F. Sohl, collecting at localities in Puerto Rico. A silicified fauna was collected which contains many new species apparently endemic to the Caribbean area. A review of the Jurassic and Cretaceous Ostreidae of Saudi Arabia has been started; the Pholadomyidae from this fauna are now under study. Dr. Kauffman completed four manuscripts which have been approved for publication. <<>> Associate curator Martin A. Buzas joined the staff June 1963. His research activities involve distributional studies of Recent and late Tertiary smaller Foraminifera. Dr. Buzas completed manuscripts on the Foraminifera from a late Pleistocene clay near Waterford, Maine, and a distributional study of the species of Foraminifera in Long Island Sound. The New York study included analyses of many environmental conditions, such as sediment particle size and chemical properties of the water. His most recent investigation is a canonical analysis of four species of EVphidium. Eight characters were measured on series of specimens and the statistics programmed for evaluation by means of a multivariate technique which utilizes a high-speed electronic computer. Dr. Richard H. Benson joined the staff as associate curator of invertebrate paleontology on June 30, 1964. His area of specialization is the Ostracoda of the Tertiary. Vertebrate Paleontology.—Curator C. L. Gazin completed his morphologic study of the Early Eocene condylarthran mammal d/eniscotherium. This has included a detailed review of nearly the entire skeleton, which is compared with those of other condylarths and the hyracoids. The latter were once thought to be fairly closely related to Meniscotherium, but the resemblances are now regarded as primarily adaptive. A beginning was also made in study of a fauna from a new Paleocene horizon in the Evanston formation of southwestern Wyoming, and of a recently prepared endocranial cast of the Middle Eocene Bridger primate Smilodectes. In connection with his condylarthran studies, Dr. Gazin visited the Chicago Natural History Museum in February for further evidence on the ecology of Aeniscotherium as interpreted from details of associated biota, and in June again visited Princeton and Yale Universities and the American Museum to wind up details of the morphologic study, under funds provided by the National Science Foundation. Field work by the curator earlier in the year was carried on principally in the Middle Eocene Bridger formation of southwestern Wyoming. Much of the time was devoted to a careful search for smaller mammals in the upper part of the formation, as exposed in the upper basin of Sage Creek, but with some attention to the lower levels in the Grizzly Buttes and to the north of Cedar Mountain. Occasional trips were made to profitable localities of earlier years in the Paleocene and Early Eocene of adjacent basins. Franklin L. Pearce, chief of the laboratory of vertebrate paleontology, assisted him during the early part of the field season but illness prevented his remaining throughout. At the close of the year Dr. Gazin and Mr. Pearce departed for field work in New Mexico and Wyoming. <<>> During September and October associate curator D. H. Dunkle, accompanied by museum technician G. B. Sullivan, conducted field work in northwestern Ohio, the area around Council Bluffs, lowa, and the Manzano Mountains of central New Mexico. Their collections and stratigraphic observations will permit important additions to and revisions of the known paleoichthyological faunas of the Middle Devonian silica shale of Ohio and several Late Paleozoic horizons of the mid-continent and Rocky Mountain regions. The New Mexico occurrence investigated is of especial interest ; it is practically the lone source in North America of a varied marine assemblage of well-preserved fishes, invertebrates, and plants from the Permo-Carboniferous interval. Aided by a study trip to Pittsburgh and Cleveland, excellent progress was accomplished in the preparation and description for publication of a new paleoniscoid fish from the Upper Devonian Ohio shales and of the fishes of the Middle Devonian silica shale. In September associate curator Nicholas Hotton III left Washington for field work in Africa. In addition to collecting in the Permo-Triassic beds of the Karroo region in South Africa, which has yielded a variety of mammal-like reptiles, he has been carrying on during a greater part of the year a detailed stratigraphic study of the Beaufort series with a view toward a better understanding of the distribution and ecology of the forms. At the end of this year he had left Africa for Europe to study at certain of the leading museums. Associate curator Clayton E. Ray, who joined the staff on December 18, 1963, has continued his studies, carried on previously at the University of Florida, of fossil and modern terrestrial vertebrates, especially rodents of the Antillean region. Since his arrival he has completed reports of a new species of capromyid rodent and an undescribed mimiature ground sloth, both from a cave in the Dominican Republic. He also continued his studies, initiated in Florida, of the North American Quaternary fauna, including that of a Blancan fauna from Florida, the first in eastern United States. In April, sponsored by the National Science Foundation, Dr. Ray gave at Shorter College, Rome, Ga., a lecture on Pleistocene animals. At that time he visited a Pleistocene fossil locality. Near the close of the year, in the vicinity of Puebla, Mexico, Dr. Ray conducted a field investigation of Pleistocene occurrences in collaboration with an NSF-sponsored archeological party from the Peabody Museum in Cambridge, Mass. Dr. Remington Kellogg, research associate, continued his studies of the Tertiary Cetacea and completed a report on the skeleton of one of the larger Calvert Miocene whalebone whales. Satisfactory progress <<>> was made on the evaluation and identification of some of Cope’s cetacean types which had been based on imperfectly preserved vertebrae. Comparative studies of several types of Miocene mysticetes are being pursued.

Mineral Sciences Department chairman George Switzer completed the annual review of the diamond industry and, with Roy S. Clarke, Jr., Helen Worthing, and John Sinkankas, completed a manuscript on “Fluorine in Hambergite.” Associate curator Paul E. Desautels began an investigation of a suite of rare uranium minerals from a new locality in Mexico, and completed a study of one of them, sklodowskite, a hydrous magnesium uranyl <<>> silicate. Mr. Desautels addressed mineral societies in Tucson, Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, Toronto, and Washington, D.C. John S. White, Jr., museum technician, nearly completed a study of the rare mineral plattnerite, oxide of lead, from several new localities in Arizona and Mexico. Associate curator EK. P. Henderson completed two manuscripts—one, a study of the hexahedrite meteorite group, and the second, a discussion of the legendary and probably nonexistent Port Orford, Oreg., meteorite. A study of the metallography of the Bogou, Upper Volta, iron meteorite was also completed. During the year Mr. Henderson spent four months in the field in Australia with Dr. Brian Mason of The American Museum of Natural History, and Dr. R. O. Chalmers of The Australian Museum. Meteorite material was collected from four well-known Australian craters, Henbury, Boxhole, Wolf Creek, and Dalgaranga. The Dalgety Downs meteorite was relocated and nearly 500 pounds of material recovered, and many fine tektite specimens were also collected. Exchanges arranged during the stay in Australia, and on the return trip through the Middle East and Europe, have added a number of fine new specimens to the collection. In November 1963 Mr. Henderson was awarded the degree of Doctor philosophiae honoris causa by the University of Bern for his many contributions to the study of meteorites. Roy 8S. Clarke, Jr., continued his studies of chemical methods of meteorite analysis; minor element analyses of several iron meteorites are in progress. Investigation of an iron oxide corrosion product of a metal blade from the Freer Gallery collection, conducted in cooperation with R. J. Gettens and E. W. FitzHugh, proved that this ancient blade was fabricated from meteoritic iron. A complete chemical analysis of the mineral phosphophyllite from Bolivia was made. Tektite studies, particularly relating to the Martha’s Vineyard and Georgia tektites, are continuing. Mr. Clarke attended the Second Tnternational Symposium on Tektites in Pittsburgh in September, and participated in the organization of a fruitful meeting of tektite research workers and representatives of the scientific staff of the Corning Glass Works held in Corning, New York in February. Henderson and Clarke visited the Georgia tektite area with Mr. Thomas E. Allen of Atlanta in March. In June 1964 a grant was received from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to conduct studies of constituents, compositions, and textures of meteorites, and their bearing on theoretical problems. <<>> Library in new Museum of History and Technology occupies a central location among fifth-floor curatorial offices. Science and Technology Chairman Robert P. Multhauf was principally occupied with a study of the history of early chemistry, which was nearly complete at year’s end. During the year Dr. Multhauf presented a paper on the use of calculating machines in scientific work, and another on early theories of the nature of metals. Physical Sciences.—Curator Walter F. Cannon devoted his research time to a continuation of his studies of English scientists of the early 19th century. He prepared two papers for publication on the characteristics of physical science in the 19th century. A paper on the scientific work of William Whewell was prepared at the request of the editor of the Notes and Records of the Royal Society and will be published in that journal. Uta C. Merzbach, associate curator, continued her investigations of the history of modern algebra, and began a detailed research project on the mathematics of Leibniz. Mechanical and Civil Engineering.—Curator Silvio A. Bedini toured technical museums and other institutions of learning in Great 3ritain and continental European countries and presented lectures on 17th-century optical instrument makers at the Astrophysical Ob <<>> servatory at Arcetri and at the Instituto Nazionale della Ottica of the University of Florence. He was invited to present a paper on Giovanni de’Dondi at the University of Padua in October for the sexcentenary of the astrarium. He has completed a book entitled “Mechanical Universe” on the de’Dondi astrarium in collaboration with Francis R. Maddison of the Museum of the History of Science at Oxford University. This work, which is scheduled for publication during the present year, is the product of his research in north Italian archives during his tour of museums and will present a considerable amount of hitherto unstudied documentary material. During the past year Mr. Bedini also completed three more articles about antique scientific instruments in the national collections, one of which has already been published; a comprehensive investigation of the invention of the orrery, including study of an unrecorded instrument recently discovered in an American collection; an article on the evolution of science museums for the special museum issue of Technology and Culture; and a study of early Italian science museums for publication in Cultura e Scuola in Rome. In addition to these, Mr. Bedini has completed an article on Galileo’s preoccupation with the measurement of time, which will form part of the Saggi, the memorial volume of Galilean studies to be published by the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche in Rome; a comparative study of Galileo’s instruments for the memorial volume of Galilean studies to be published by Notre Dame University; and a paper about the craftsmen Historic machines and patent models illustrate development of typewriter in hall of light machinery. <<>> Automatic graduating machine of 1859, for linear and circular graduations, made by J.

In progress is a biography on the Della Volpaia, a family of engravers, sculptors, clock-makers, engineers and instrument-makers which flourished in Florence during the 15th and 16th centuries and which made a considerable contribution to science, technology, and the arts. In the section of light machinery and horology, associate curator Edwin A. Battison completed the first draft of a translation of Jacques Besson’s Theatrum Instrumentarum et Machinarum from the 16thcentury French with the assistance of summer intern Bruce H. White. Since this work has not been previously available in English, this translation will be a significant contribution to the history of technology. Names of American patentees appearing on subject lists for a period of three years of the mid-19th century were added to an alphabetical card file in progress, making a total of six years now completed. Associate curator Robert M. Vogel in the section of heavy machinery and civil engineering, during the course of a study trip to the Midwest, conducted research on the development of the uniflow steam engine in the United States. In addition to interviewing numerous individuals <<>> who were instrumental in the introduction of the uniflow concept into American engineering practice prior to World War I, Mr. Vogel made a thorough search of the archives of the Skinner Engine Company, the leading manufacturer of this type of engine. Trans portation.—Three trips to Spain were made by curator Howard I. Chapelle in connection with the reconstruction of Columbus’ Santa Maria by a Barcelona shipyard for the New York World’s Fair. At the same time he was able to accomplish research on Spanish shipbuilding of the 18th and early 19th centuries, especially with respect to American colonial shipbuilding and Spanish influence on their design. Mr. Chapelle has also completed about half the anticipated work on his long-range project regarding the search for speed under sail. John H. White, Jr., associate curator, has concentrated on his project entitled “Representative Locomotives”; about 200 illustrations are now completed and about a third of the text in first draft. Museum specialist Donald Berkebile has nearly completed his research on the famous Liberty Truck of World War I. Electricity.—Curator Bernard S. Finn continued his research into the history of thermoelectricity, with a view to publishing a source book of the important historical documents in the field. Information compiled from trips to Kuropean museums last year and to American museums this year will be used in an article characterizing the modern science museum. Over the past two years a large-scale effort has been made to visit colleges and universities to find objects for the collections. Toward this end Dr. Finn made a week’s tour through South Carolina and Georgia, and Mr. Sivowitch had a fruitful two days in the Philadelphia area. Partly as a result of this type of direct searching, the division has received objects over the past year from fourteen of these institutions. Important large collections of material have been received from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Columbia University. Medical Sciences.—Dr. Sami Hamarneh revised a Bibliography of Medicine and Pharmacy in Medieval Islam for publication in mid1964.

Kloster continued work on a critical and descriptive catalog of United States Army uniforms in the national collections. Mr. Kloster also completed a short manuscript on quartermaster badges in the Civil War. Mr. Howell completed a descriptive catalog of the World War I paintings of Harvey Dunn, and continued his study of eyewitness art of the Indian Wars. During the Third Congress of the Association of Museums of Arms and Military History, at which he was a delegate, associate curator Craddock R. Goins, Jr., examined several weapons collections in England, Scotland, and Denmark. From these collections he obtained information pertaining to the Hall and Maynard breech-loading systems. Naval History.—Curator Philip K. Lundeberg continued his research on the Continental gondola Philadelphia and the Northern Campaign of 1776. Dr. Lundeberg secured valuable data from the Public Records Office in London relative to British plans for the invasion of New York, and additional illustrative material was obtained, <<>> including a reproduction of a contemporary watercolor sketch of the battle of Valcour Island by a British 18th-century combat artist. Research was also launched on the memorandum book of Samuel Nutt, a British seaman who kept a most informative journal while serving on board HMS America, 1779-1783. Following publication of his paper “The German Naval Critique of the U-Boat Campaign, 1915-1918,” which was awarded the Moncado Prize of the American Military Institute, Dr. Lundeberg initiated a study of the impact of technology upon the naval strategy of World War I, with particular emphasis on undersea warfare. Dr. Lundeberg has continued work on a catalog of the growing national collection of models of historic United States warships; much of the information currently is being utilized for completion of the models themselves. Extensive research was carried out in connection with plans for models of the frigate Constitution and the torpedo boat Cushing, while a check list of selected ship plans in the divisional archives has been completed and will be shortly available to the public. During the year, associate curator Melvin H. Jackson completed the first draft of his maritime history of the Caribbean, 1793-1800, based partly on archival materials in Jamaica and Curacao. Further research is planned in France, The Netherlands, Spain and Great Britain. Closely allied to these studies is his search for objects and documents illustrative of the history of privateering. With the cooperation of the curator of transportation, Howard I. Chapelle, revised plans of the schooner Prince de Neufchatel have been completed preparatory to the construction of a model of that handsome privateer. The history of the United States Revenue Marine continued as a major element of Dr. Jackson’s research program. A reassessment of the battle of Negro Head in 1814, involving the Revenue cutter Eagle, H. M. Sloop Dispatch and H. M. Frigate Varcissus, was published in the spring of 1964. Wide-ranging research was conducted into the history of the celebrated Revenue cutter Bear in preparation for construction of a model representing that vessel as she appeared between 1880 and 1900. In the field of naval ordnance, Dr. Jackson undertook the completion of a manuscript by the late Colonel Carey Tucker of Maryland on the history of muzzle-loading ordnance in the United States. Additional research was carried out in connection with construction of models of the 8-inch barbette battery of the USS A¢/anta, the 10-inch turret of the USS J/aine and a Terrier missile launcher, while data were collected also for graphic representation of a 16-inch naval turret. <<>> Taking-off the hull lines of Continental gondola Philadelphia, in order to make a lines drawing, is a step in the process of preserving this famous vessel and building a model of it. Exhibits specialist Howard P. Hoffman of the divison of naval history conducted an exhaustive survey of the Continental gondola Philadelphia, preparing detailed plans of the vessel and her armament as the basis for construction of a large-scale model. He also conducted extended research on David Bushnell’s submarine 7urt/e, draughting plans for a longitudinal-section model of that early submersible. Alan B. Albright, museum specialist, completed a paper on the preservation of organic materials recovered from underwater sites; publication is expected during the year. In July and August, Chairman Peterson and museum specialist Albright investigated two underwater sites in Bermuda through the cooperation of Mr. E. B. Tucker and the Government of Bermuda. During the diving season of 1964, a full-scale expedition will be mounted to be financed by two generous supporters of the underwater program. This expedition will investigate thoroughly the early Spanish wreck site which was given a preliminary investigation last year. This site, believed to date from the 1560’s contains large portions of the ship’s bottom timbers. Special measuring devices designed by Howard P. Hoffman and James Mahoney of the museum staff, modified and built by William Sonntag of the buildings management department, are expected to give accurate measurements of these early timber remains. The resulting drawings should be of importance to historians of naval architecture. <<>> Visiting investigators.—Assistance was provided to other Government agencies throughout the year. Among those so assisted were the National Institute of Heraldry, of the Office, Chief of Military History; Historical Division and Technical Intelligence, Office, Chief of Ordnance, Department of the Army; Prints Division and General Reference Service, Library of Congress; Army and Air Force Branch, National Archives; and Division of Naval History and Records, Department of the Navy. <<>> Publications The scientific publications of the United States National Museum continued under the editorship of John S.
