Annual Report of
the Director

United States National Museum

Introduction

From the earliest days of our national existence the Congress has
shown interest in the scientific progress of cur Nation. Exploration
of our country and the study of its natural resources have been en-
couraged and supported. But at first no provision was made to
preserve the novel scientific materials collected by early governmental
expeditions and surveys.

However, in 1846 the Regents of the newly established Smithsonian
Institution, at the request of the 29th Congress, agreed to accept
responsibility for the care of these collections, provided that adequate
space and financial aid be granted. As a result, the United States
National Museum was established in March 1857 as a Federal Bureau,
to be administered by the Smithsonian Institution and financially
supported by the Government of the United States.

Over the years, collections have flowed into the United States
National Museum, keeping pace with our expanding national bound-
aries and the amazing progress of science. One of the most important
functions of any museum is to preserve and make available the objects
confided to its care. In the field of natural history—which includes
many aspects of zoology, botany, geology, and anthropology—it is
from collections of these objects that much of our basic knowledge
is derived. Such objects, when they are wisely collected and carefully
documented and arranged, make the museum an orderly, useful

By June 1961 the foundation of the east wing of the
Natural History building had been completed and
work on the first floor was in progress. In this
view from across Constitution Avenue, the east end
of the wing is partly hidden by the tree in the
foreground. At the left is seen Ninth Street, NW.,
and in the background, the Arts and Industries
building.

INTRODUCTION 3

treasure house of reference materials—a reservoir of factual informa-
tion from which layman and scientist alike benefit.

In 1904 the designers of our Natural History building provided
what they thought was space sufficient for normal growth. At that
time they could hardly have foreseen the impending explosive expan-
sion of scientific knowledge. The older scientific cisciplines have
since expanded into broader fields, and new sciences have been born
and have come of age. The importance of the Museum to the Nation
was also underestimated by the designers; they did not anticipate
the increasing number of individuals and agencies that would find
daily use of the collections essential to their work.

Our natural history collections have kept pace with these new
developments and have even anticipated them, but the facilities for
accommodating this vast treasure have remained static for more than
half a century. Asa result, the new building had reached its efficient
capacity in the 1920’s, and by 1928 its Director was already pointing
out the need for larger quarters for his staff and collections.

Since 1930 the natural history collections that are basic to scientific
work in zoology, botany, geology, and anthropology have nearly
tripled in size in shghtly more than 30 years, even though their
growth is carefully controlled and only those specimens believed
essential to scientific progress are accessioned.

It is, therefore, a source of profound satisfaction to the Regents
of the Smithsonian Institution, as well as to its staff and its well-
wishers throughout the world, that the Congress has now made avail-
able the funds needed for the construction of additions to the Museum
of Natural History building of the U.S. National Museum. At the
end of fiscal year 1961 the east wing construction was well under
way, its completion being scheduled for the spring of 1963. Plans
for the west wing and for modernization of the existing building are
approaching completion, and it is confidently anticipated that the
entire project will be completed, and the new wings fully occupied,
during 1964.

The two additions to the existing building will be essentially mirror
images of one another; each will have over-all dimensions of 199
by 180 feet and will consist of a basement, ground floor, and six upper
floors. The two wings together will have a gross area of approximately
537,000 square feet and a net area of about 390,000 square feet. Hach
will provide service facilities for the visiting public, such as rest-
rooms, and elevators giving access to exhibit halls in the existing
building. The portion of each wing abutting the existing building
will contain a mechanical equipment area that will house air-condi-
tioning equipment, and through these areas and a cooling tower in the

4 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

present east court the wings and the present building will be com-
pletely air-conditioned. The advantages of this for the visiting pub-
lic, the staff and scientific visitors, and for the collections themselves,
are too obvious to emphasize.

Some of the many essentials provided by this new construction
include efficiently located and arranged storage space that gives maxi-
mum protection and accessibility to the collections ; modern, specialized
laboratories and workrooms that promote maximum efficiency in both
the use of the collections and the efforts of the scientists; general
service laboratories that consolidate those needs shared by many dis-
ciplines; and workshops for the preparation and mounting of speci-
mens and the construction and repair of exhibits.

For the staff members of the Museum of Natural History, for the
large number of scientists from other Federal agencies who are
permanently housed in the Museum and use its materials constantly,
and for the many hundreds of visiting scientists who yearly consult
the collections for periods of days or months, this building program
now in its final stage represents the culmination of years of planning
and hoping. The entire scientific community of the country shares our
satisfaction in knowing that the Government’s irreplaceable and basic
tools of natural history will soon be housed in a manner fitting their
scientific significance.

The general arrangement of each floor in the new wings is essen-
tially standardized; there will be a central area for the appropriate
reference collection, surrounded on the three outside walls of the
wing by a series of workrooms and laboratories. These will all be
approximately 19 feet on one dimension and will vary in the other
according to the use proposed for them. All such rooms will have
excellent dayhght and will contain the facilities needed for the in-
tended use as designated by the members of the scientific staff, who
in each case have designed the details of their own areas. On the
average, each floor will have between 20 and 30 workrooms or lab-
oratories, and each division will center its activities within a well-
demarcated area.

The east wing is designed to house, on approximately 414 floors,
practically all the functions of the department of geology and the
activities associated with it. The top floor of this wing will be utilized
by the division of birds, and a large part of the fifth floor by the
division of mollusks, these of course being two parts of the large
department of zoology.

The west wing will house the division of fishes on its ground floor,
the division of marine invertebrates on its first and much of its second
floor, the division of reptiles and amphibians on the rest of the second
floor, the entire department of botany on the third and fourth floors,

INTRODUCTION 5)

and the division of insects on the fifth and sixth floors, a portion of
which will also provide some storage space for the division of mam-
mals, which otherwise will occupy the adjacent top floor of the western
part of the existing building.

Space on the third floor of the present building will be remodeled
to permit the suitable expansion of the entire department of anthro-
pology and the establishment of an adequate photographic laboratory
that will provide service to all units of the Museum of Natural History.
Three existing attic areas of the present building, to be adequately
lighted and air-conditioned, will permit housing of some of the study
collections of the department of anthropology and the division of
mammals.

With the removal of scientific activities from the entire first and
second floors of the present building, two public halls originally
designed for exhibits will be returned to their proper use. The ground
floor of the existng building will ultimately house an expanded
central Smithsonian Library, some study areas of the division of
fishes, a modernized cold room for the important fur collection of
the division of mammals, completely renovated facilities for those
activities of the office of exhibits that pertain to natural history, and
improved shops of the buildings management department.

The building program here discussed opens many vistas of progress
for our staff scientists and their colleagues, who are concerned equally
with care of the collections and the research, based upon them, that
expands our knowledge. Science is never static. A museum does not
progress merely by keeping in excellent condition the materials in
its care, although custodial competence is certainly a prerequisite to
advancement. Only by applying modern viewpoints and modern
techniques can the traditional branches of science progress. Staff
members of the Museum of Natural History have these viewpoints,
and with the space and equipment that is provided by the new addi-
tions, they can implement their research by modern techniques. They
eagerly welcome this opportunity to project their skills in new and
potentially profitable directions.

Additions to the Museum of Natural History

For the construction of the east wing extension and for alterations
and air conditioning of the existing Natural History building a con-
tract was awarded January 3, 1961, to the George Hyman Construction
Company, for the sum of $7,748,000. Construction was started
January 6.

At the close of the fiscal year the project was 17.5 percent complete.
Excavation for all major portions of the east wing extension was com-
pleted, the basement raft slab was approximately 80 percent con-
structed, and the depressed areas in the northeast corner of the
basement had been waterproofed. Foundation walls for the mechani-
cal equipment buildings in the east and west courts of the Natural
History building were poured. All underground plumbing for the
east court equipment building had been inspected and backfilled, and
chilled-water and condenser-water lines in the tunnel of the central
equipment building in the east court were 95 percent laid. Construc-
tion of the rerouted trunk sewer was finished the first week of May
1961.

The General Services Administration has selected Mills, Petticord
and Mills, architects for the east wing extension, to complete plans and
specifications for the design of the west wing extension.

Museum of History and Technology

The cornerstone of the Museum of History and Technology was laid
May 19, 1961. The Honorable Earl Warren, Chief Justice of the
United States Supreme Court and Chancellor of the Smithsonian
Institution, together with Senator Clinton P. Anderson, Regent of
the Smithsonian Institution and Chairman of the Joint Congressional
Committee for a Museum of History and Technology, spoke of the
history and purpose of the new building. The Regents of the Smith-
sonian Institution and members of the Joint Congressional Committee
participated in placing the mortar for the stone. At the close of the
fiscal year the building was approximately 50 percent complete.

Details of the progress of construction during the year and a brief
description of the exhibits planned for the building are contained in
the report of the Joint Congressional Committee (Senate Report No.
365, Sith Cong. Ist Sess., June 12, 1961), as follows:

~A BUILDING FOR A MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND TECHNOLOGY

The Joint Congressional Committee on Construction of a Building for a
Museum of History and Technology for the Smithsonian Institution submits
this report on the progress of the planning and construction of the building.

‘

8 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

The last report of the committee dated May 28, 1960, described the beginning
of construction of the building for the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum of
History and Technology. Construction, as of March 1961, reached 35 percent
of completion, but the rate of progress has not attained what was originally
scheduled. The normal expected progress to March 15, 1961, was 59 percent
and every effort will be made to speed the remaining work in order that the
building may be finished not later than July 1, 1962, even though the present
anticipated date of completion is several months beyond that.

All structural steel has been erected, the concrete decks set in place on all
floors, the concrete walls completed from the basement floor to the second floor,
and precast wall panels which will backup the exterior stone are now being
erected above the second floor. The mechanical work is more advanced than
normally would be expected at this stage of construction. Most of this progress
Was accomplished prior to December 10, 1960, when Washington began to
experience its worst winter weather in recent years. Practically no general
construction was performed on this, or, we are informed, on any other large
local building in the period from December 10 to December 31 because of snow,
cold, and rain.

On January 9, 1961, officers of the Smithsonian Institution, the General Sery-
ices Administration, and the firm of supervisory architects called on the chairman
of the committee to discuss the progress of the building. At that time construc-
tion was 30 percent completed. This was 11 percentage points below the
expected status of construction for the date. The representatives of the General
Services Administration stated that the rate of progress might be improved
considerably by expanding the work force engaged in concrete work. In this way
space might be made available more rapidly for work by the mechanical and
other trades. It was estimated at that time that the concrete work could be
completed in about 3 months of favorable pouring weather and the exterior
stone in about 9 months. Steps to expand the work force and to minimize the
delay were discussed. A summary of the matters considered was sent to the
members of the committee in the form of the 11th monthly report from the
Smithsonian Institution. Monthly meetings between officials of the regional
office of the Public Buildings Service were begun as a result of the discussion and
Within the following 2 months the average work force was increased from 250
men to 425.

Subsequent to January 9, 1961, four heavy snowstorms occurring about a week
apart caused another month’s delay in the pouring of concrete. Temporary heat
in enclosed sections of the building permitted some types of interior work to
proceed although many other major construction projects in the area were
completely halted.

The General Services Administration recently reported that unexpectedly
large quantities of stone had to be removed from the quarries to produce the
volume of acceptable marble required for the exterior of the building, but that
all appropriate means were being taken to expedite the production of the finished
marble. The first shipment of marble arrived at the building site in March 1961.

The General Services Administration, after evaluating all delaying factors,
has advised that the anticipated date of completion is how September 1962.
This statement was qualified with the assurance that every practicable way of
improving the schedule would be sought.

The plan for the exhibits within the building has been described in detail in
previous reports made by the committee to the Congress. The purpose of the
exhibits will be to present to the millions of citizens who visit the Smithsonian

INTRODUCTION 9

Institution each year a vital exposition of its great collections, commemorating
the national heritage and illustrating the historical development of the basic
elements in the life of the country. Original objects associated with famous
Americans and historical events, including the original Star-Spangled Banner
which inspired Francis Scott Key to write the national anthem, the desk at
which Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence, Washington’s sword,
and many other memorabilia will graphically commemorate stirring events.
Humble objects of everyday use will be shown in authentic settings to point out
the evolution of our way of life.

For the first time in any museum original objects of great historical and in-
dividual importance will be combined with period furniture, coaches, tools, con-
temporary prints of home life and business activities, weapons, uniforms,
documents, coins, engines, printing machines, watercraft, and many other
things, to form chronological exhibits of the growth of our American civilization.
Old plows and tractors, mills, machines, vehicles, locomotives, and original patent
models of the electric light, the telephone, the typewriter, and many other de-
vices, will be woven into exhibits illustrating important steps in our agricultural
and industrial development. The history of science and technology will be
traced in exhibits of the original apparatus of the scientists, relating their great
discoveries to the machines and structures in which our inventors and engineers
applied new scientific knowledge for the benefit of mankind.

The building, when completed, and fully installed with its exhibits, will prob-
ably display a wider scope and variety of collections than any other museum.
Exhibition and preservation equipment, required for a museum of this complex
character, is being built into the building to accommodate the initial installations
and also to provide flexibility to permit the museum to adjust its exhibits and
collections to keep pace with the future development of the country and its
technology.

Wide column spacing with nonbearing dividing walls, under-floor ducts to
earry light and power wires will allow changes in the arrangement of exhibits.
A ceiling design is used which will permit room lighting as well as the accent
lighting of large objects. These lights can be changed economically when new
exhibits are put into place. These are among the features which will provide
for the continuing efficient use of the building. Latest exhibition techniques will
be used to make the collections meaningful to the public. Recorded spoken
descriptions of the outstanding objects will be transmitted electronically to ear-
phones worn by visitors who wish to avail themselves of the most detailed
information. Television camera cables are being built-in to faciliate the broad-
casting of educational programs originating in the exhibition halls, thereby adding
to the usefulness of the collections. The architects have projected the Smith-
sonian Institution’s broad experience with extensive collections and large crowds
of museum visitors into a coordinated plan designed to receive and direct
visitors smoothly and comfortably through the very extensive exhibit areas.

The building will have five floors and a basement. Two of the three exhibition
floors have entrances at the grade levels of the adjacent streets. On the two
floors above the main exhibition floors are workrooms for the curatorial staff and
space to house the very large reserve collections of the Smithsonian in the fields
of history and technology. These reserve collections will be open to examination
by the thousands of visitors who come to the Smithsonian with special interests
and by research students, historians, collectors, and writers who wish to study
them. The basement will contain maintenance shops and laboratories for the

preservation and renovation of the great variety of priceless objects in the col-
lections. Here also will be public exhibits of mining history and technology.

The space and equipment for these varied and specialized museum functions
have been thoughtfully planned by the staff of the Smithsonian and by the archi-
tects and have been enclosed in an exterior building form which has been favor-
ably described as of a contemporary design which nevertheless retains classic
proportions appropriate to the building’s location on the Mall.

Through the death of James Kellum Smith, distinguished architect
and sole surviving partner of McKim, Mead and White, the Smith-
sonian Institution suffered the loss of a dedicated friend and adviser.
The firm was dissolved, but the architects long associated with the
design of the building will continue to advise the Smithsonian as
members and associates of the new firm of Steinman, Cain and White.

The firm of Mills, Petticord and Mills, associate architects of the
building, are supervising the construction of the building for the
General Services Administration. Commander Harold L. Haworth,
USN (Ret.) is the resident engineer, in charge.

Mr. Henry Norair, president of Norair Engineering Corporation,
died April 12, 1961. Mr. Norair, as the principal of the firm construet-
ing the building, had devoted close personal attention to the work. Mr.
Richard Norair succeeded as president of the firm and Mr. T. H.
Maichek, vice-president, is continuing as project manager for the
building.

Mr. John E. Cudd, haison architect of the Public Buildings Serv-
ice, General Services Administration, continued to contribute his
sound architectural judgment and skills to the resolution of many
questions arising out of the work. Mr. A. R. Eno, supervisory en-
gineer, has observed the day-to-day progress of the construction for
the Smithsonian Institution and has assisted skillfully in the solution
of many problems developing out of job conditions.

Funds Allotted

From the funds appropriated by Congress to carry on the operations
of the Smithsonian Institution and its bureaus during the fiscal year
1961, the sum of 54,067,542 was obligated by the United States Na-
tional 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 ).

Exhibits

The systematic, museum-wide program for the modernization of
exhibits moved steadily forward during the year. Three large ex-
hibition halls in the Natural History building were renovated and
reopened to the public—the hall of fossil plants and invertebrates,
the hall of fossil mammals, and the first of the two halls of North
American archeology. At the end of this eighth year of the continu-
ing modernization program nine of the fifteen galleries on the first
floor and four second-floor halls had been renovated and opened to
public view. Each hall has presented distinct problems in exhibition
because of the different subject matter interpreted in each. However,
each renovated gallery reveals marked improvements in the organiza-
tion of topics, in the attractiveness of presentation, and in the sim-
plicity of labeling that combine to make it a much more effective
educational medium than was the series of exhibits that occupied the
hall prior to modernization. In each hall appear selected newly pre-
pared or acquired specimens which help to provide a better rounded
interpretation of the field of science represented in the gallery.

Museum director Albert C. Smith assumed the chairmanship of the
committee coordinating and supervising the modernization of natural
history exhibits following the retirement of Herbert Friedmann, head
curator of zoology. Dr. Friedmann had served with distinction as
a member of the exhibits planning committee since its inception in
1950, and had played an active and substantial role in the organization
and development of the exhibits modernization program.

The major objective of the exhibits program of the Museum of
History and Technology, which is being coordinated by assistant
director John C. Ewers, is the development of exhibits for the new
building now under construction. However, many exhibits destined
for future display in the new museum are being installed in the Arts
and Industries building until the Museum of History and Technology
is ready to receive them. During the year a hall of monetary history
and a hall of petroleum were installed, the series of exhibits on the
textiles gallery was completed, extensive additions were made to the
exhibits in medicine, dentistry, and pharmacy, and other new displays
were placed on view in various locations in the Arts and Industries
building.

Exhibits for a number of halls in the new building were prepared
in the laboratory and carefully stored until they can be installed in

11

that museum. These included displays for the halls of costumes,
political history, ceramics, everyday life in the American past, physics,
railroads, Armed Forces history, and ordnance. Full scale period in-
teriors and/or miniature groups also were prepared for the halls of
tools, hight machinery, civil engineering, the growth of the United
States, and the First Ladies hall. Renovation of historic machines,
tools, weapons, vehicles, musical instruments, costumes, and textiles
progressed in the museum workshops, and the specification and con-
struction of models of such large objects as ships, locomotives, and
machine tools for exhibition in the new museum continued.

Exhibits chief John E. Anglim continued to provide overall supervi-
sion of the design of exhibition halls and the design and preparation
of exhibits for the entire museum. The exhibits work for the Museum
of History and Technology was supervised by Benjamin W. Lawless,
with the assistance of Robert Widder in design, Bela S. Bory in
production, and Robert Klinger in the model shop. Rolland O.
Hower, assisted by Thomas Baker and Julius Tretick, supervised the
renovation of exhibition halls in the Museum of Natural History.
The design of the renovated halls in existing buildings has been
greatly aided by Richard S. Johnson, design branch chief, and John
H. Morrissey, architectural branch chief of the architectural and
structural division of the Public Buildings Service, General Services
Administration, and by Luther H. Flouton, Charles J. Nora, and
Julius J. Dickerson, design architects of that agency. Carroll Lusk,
museum hehting specialist of Syracuse, N.Y., provided valuable con-
sultative assistance to designers of exhibition halls for the Museum
of History and Technology. Joseph G. Weiner, with the assistance
of Constance Minkin, Basil Andronicos, and Edna Owens, continued
the editing of the curators’ drafts of exhibit labels.

The exhibits staff continued to provide timely cooperation to other
branches of the Smithsonian Institution. Personnel of the Museum of
Mistory and Technology laboratory completed the preparation and
installation of exhibits in the Air and Space building. These ex-
hibits were designed by James Mahoney in cooperation with director
Philip S. Hopkins and the members of his curatorial staff. Ma. Ma-
honey also designed the temporary exhibition “Contemporary Ameri-
can Ceramics” organized by the American Craftsman’s Council and
circulated in Europe by the United States Information Agency, which
was displayed in the Natural History building May 29 through June
30, 1961. Robert W. Widder designed the installation of a special
exhibition, “Chinese Art Treasures,” sponsored by the Government
of the Republe of China, which opened in the National Gallery of Art
on May 27. The staff of the Museum of Natural History laboratory
assisted the National Collection of Fine Arts in the design and in-
stallation of a temporary exhibition, “Art and Archeology of Viet

Nam” (October 27—December 8, 1960), and assisted the Smithsonian
Traveling Exhibition Service in the preparation of four temporary
exhibitions in the foyer of the Natural History building, entitled
“Folk Art from Rumania” (July 16—August 7, 1960), “Two Centuries
of Danish Deep Sea Research” (October 14-November 13, 1960),
“The World of Werner Bischoff” (February 11-March 5, 1961), and
“The New Theatre in Germany” (May 6-28, 1961).

Anthropology

The first of two modernized halls of North American archeology
was opened to the public on June 24, 1961. A number of the 34
exhibits in this hall pertray and explain important aspects of aborigi-
nal North American life—Indian methods of mining and quarrying,
techniques of making tools, weapons and other useful objects of stone,

13

14 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

various uses of tobacco, Indian food crops and their cultivation.
Metal and glass objects found in archeological sites show the in-
fluence of these trade materiais upon Indian culture during the historic
period. About half the exhibits in the hall interpret the prehistoric
cultures of the North American Arctic, the North Pacific Coast, Cali-
forma, and the Southwest by means of selected artifacts, graphic
materials, life-sized and miniature groups. The remarkable skill of
the prehistoric peoples in arts and crafts 1s shown through the display
of such examples as small ivory carvings of the Old Bering Sea
Culture, large wood carvings of the Aleutian Islands, and basketry
and pottery made by Indians of the Southwest. The exhibits in this
hall were planned by curator Waldo R. Wedel, and the architectural
design of the hall was prepared by exhibits designer Peter DeAnna.

Other prehistoric cultures of North America will be interpreted
in adjoining hall 22, the contract remodeling of which was completed
early in the year. Curator of archeology Waldo R. Wedel began
planning the detailed contents of the exhibits in this hall.

Associate curator Gus W. Van Beek, in collaboration with exhibits
designer Ann Karras, initiated planning for the modernization of the
Old World archeology exhibits. These will present a synopsis of
prehistoric cultures and the high cultures of the ancient Near East
and Mediterranean Basin.

Contract construction in the hall which will house renovated ex-
hibits on the life of the peoples of the Pacific Islands and South
and Southeast Asia was completed in May. Curator Saul Riesenberg
wrote a number of the exhibit unit scripts, and designer Dorothy
Guthrie began the design of displays for this hall. The adjacent
hall, which will contain the revised exhibits on the peoples of Africa
and Eastern Asia, was cleared of all old fixtures and new construction
was begun. When this hall is reopened, all four ethnological halls
in the museum will have been completely renovated and modernized.

During the year associate curator of ethnology Eugene I. Knez
made a field trip te Asia to collect contemporary ethnological mate-
rial for exhibition in these halls. With the assistance of scholars and
officials, material was acquired from Pakistan, India, Burma, Cam-
bodia, Viet-Nam, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan. In certain
countries of Southeast Asia where local scholars have not concerned
themselves particularly with the ethnology of their own people, French
scientists of the Ecole Francaise d’Extréme Orient assigned to these
areas are rendering valuable assistance. Because the Chinese main-
land is inaccessible, the resources of Hong Kong and Taiwan are being
used as far as possible in acquiring Chinese collections. An inte-
erated village exhibit including specimens, sketches, and documenta-

tion needed to present a particular theme has been received from West

EXHIBITS LS

Pakistan. The Korean Government has agreed to loan for exhibit
a rare iron Buddha of the Koryo Dynasty.

Associate curator Gordon D. Gibson, presently engaged in an
African field study, is collecting ethnological materials for specific
exhibits in hall 7.

In order to provide space for the storage of materials removed
from hall 7, 1t became necessary to remove from exhibition and store
all the semipublic displays of the division of physical anthropology
on the third floor. Among these are: trephining, cranial deformity,
criteria for sexual identification of the skeleton, relationship of size
of longbone to stage of tooth eruption, and morphological variations
in bones.

Zoology

Curatorial planning of exhibits for the large hall of oceanic life,
now under construction, comprised the major exhibits project of the
department during the year. Acting head curator Fenner A. Chace,
Jr., succeeded Dr. Herbert Friedmann as coordinator of the planning
for this hall upon the latter’s retirement. All members of the curatorial
staffs of the divisions of fishes, marine invertebrates, and mollusks
were actively engaged in this project, and those of the divisions of
mammals, and of reptiles and amphibians were to some extent in-
volved. Development of this hall requires the preparation of hun-
dreds of lifelike models, for which detailed specifications must be
drawn up by curatorial staff members from figures in the literature,
preserved specimens in the collections, color slides of living or recently
collected material, and from aquarium specimens.

Four field trips have been made to collect materials and photo-
graphs for this hall. Dr. Joseph P. EK. Morrison and James Watson
collected near Ocean Springs, Miss., and Beaufort, N.C., from
May 14 to June 15, 1960, to obtain specimens and- data for the
marshy shore and sandy beach groups. Charles E. Cutress, Jr., and
Raymond E. Hays visited Cape Arago, Oreg., between August
29 and September 25, 1960, collecting for the Pacific coast rocky
shore and tidepool habitat group. Dr. Frederick M. Bayer and
Anthony DiStefano conducted field work at Soldier Key off Miami,
Fla., from September 6 to October 12, 1960, in connection with
the coral shore group. Dr. Morrison and Thomas G. Baker were
in New Caledonia from November 16, 1960, to February 22, 1961,
gathering material and information for the coral reef exhibit. Mr.
Baker succeeded Chris Karras as designer responsible for the ex-
hibition in this hall.

Several meetings of the curatorial and exhibits staffs were held
during the year to determine the general themes of the hall of
osteology and the hall of cold-blooded vertebrates.

16 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

An effort will be made to place upon exhibition, either in the hall
of oceanic life or in the hall of cold-blooded vertebrates, fishes of
near record size, especially those of interest to sportsmen and com-
mercial fishermen. This project was materially enhanced when Mr.
Al Pflueger of North Miami, Fla., donated five beautifully finished
casts and one unfinished cast of fishes in that category. Four of the
finished casts are now on exhibition: a wahoo, 77 inches long; a green
moray, 74 inches; a dolphin, 63 inches; and a Franklin D. Roosevelt
Atlantic sailfish that weighed 140 pounds. .Of special interest is an
unfinished cast of a swordfish, 14 feet, 1114 inches long and weigh-
ing 1,182 pounds, the largest one so far recorded. Mr. Warren F.
Rathjen of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service transferred to the
national collections a western Atlantic blue marlin that measured
12 feet, 3 inches—only 9 inches shorter than the known record for
this species. Casts of the swordfish and blue marlin, when com-
pleted, will be placed upon exhibition. Another interesting model,
the unique deep-sea anglerfish Galatheathauma axeli, with a
luminous area inside its mouth, was donated by the Universitets
Zoologiske Museum, Copenhagen.

Curator Harald A. Rehder prepared a temporary exhibition,
“The World of Shells,” for display in Museum of Natural History
foyer during June for the 28th annual meeting of the American
Malacological Union, June 20 to 23, 1961. Part of this exhibit will
later be placed on permanent display on the second floor of the
museum.

Before his retirement, Dr. Herbert Friedmann completed the
manuscript for a guidebook to the hall devoted to “Birds of the
World,” and the color and black-and-white photographs to illustrate
this booklet were taken. This is the first guidebook to a renovated
hall in the Museum of Natural History to be prepared.

Geology

Three renovated halls of fossils at the east end of the first floor
of the Natural History building were formally opened to the public
on June 6, 1961. They are designed to show the story of hfe through
the ages from the earliest known fossils, dated 1,600 million years ago,
to the great mammalian fauna of the Cenozoic Era.

The hall of fossil plants and invertebrate animals is divided into
four alcoves, the first of which shows what fossils are, what animals
have been found as fossils, how animals become entombed in rocks,
and how the geological time scale was formed. The second alcove
contains a synoptic exhibit of fossil plants featuring a case on the
coal-forming species. The third provides an exhibition of fossil back-
boneless animals showing the progression in time of the sponges,

In this exhibit, added to the hali of fossil fishes, the lower Permian
flesh-eater Dimetrodon is attacking Edaphosaurus, a primitive mam-
mal-like reptile that lived some 220 million years ago in the Texas
area.

corals, snails, clams, trilobites, and other ancient shelled creatures.
A case of “Giants of the Past,” displaying some of the largest known
invertebrate fossils, 1s of special interest. The fourth alcove comprises
a series of dioramas depicting ancient sea bottoms for each of the
Paleozoic systems and for the Cretaceous of the Mesozoic, with their
colorful forms reconstructed to appear as they were in life. The
diorama of the Pennsylvanian system is the only one of its kind,
depicting a marine environment rather than the coal swamp environ-
ment portrayed in reconstructions in many other museums. This hall
was developed under the scientific supervision of curator G. Arthur
Cooper with the assistance of exhibits designer Gorman Bond.

The hall of fossil fishes had been informally reopened in June 1960.
However, a life-sized group, completed this year, showing a conflict be-
tween two kinds of pelycosaurs, or fin-backed reptiles, as 1t might have
happened about 260 million years ago, adds interest to this hall.

The third hall, the age of mammals in North America, is divided into
five general areas, one for each of the epochs of Tertiary time from

resenting the better-known groups of mammals are supplemented by
a display of skulls for each of the epochs. Enlarged photographs show
field localities where some of these fossils were found. The large
mural by Mr. Jay H. Matternes, depicting a mammalian assemblage
with associated reptiles and plants of the Bridger middle Eocene,
was completed. A second mural, showimg a Harrisonian, or early
Miocene, life group, is nearly finished. Two additional murals
portraying assemblages of characteristic mammals of other epochs
will appear in this hall. Curator C. Lewis Gazin and exhibits designer
Ann Karras collaborated closely in the development of this hall.
Architects’ plans for renovating the hall in which are displayed
the dinosaurs and the Mesozoic reptiles were completed and the con-

struction contract was let in June. The layout of exhibits was de-
signed by Ann Karras under the scientific supervision of associate
curator Nicholas Hotton III. This hall was closed to the public in
March. All the wall exhibits were taken down and the larger skeletons
were grouped together in the center for protective casing, prior to new
construction work. Most of the smaller specimens have been tem-
porarily stored, as have most of the already mounted Pleistocene
mammals.

Because of the necessarily long period of time during which the
dinosaur and Pleistocene animal halls will be closed, a selection of
these animals of popular interest has been moved to the rotunda for
display.

A temporary meteorite exhibit was placed in the areaway connecting
the jade room and the renovated North American archeology hall
21 on the second floor. Planned and installed under the direction of
associate curator Edward P. Henderson with the collaboration of
exhibits designer James Piper, this exhibition was opened to the public
on June 24, 1961.

The laboratory staff of the Department of Geology performed much
of its work inthe exhibit halls during the year. However, preparation
in the laboratory has progressed on the re-embedding in plaster, rein-
forcement and repreparation of the agate slab of Miocene mammal
remains and the further preparation of reptilian materials, such
as the plesiosaur, phytosaur, and mosasaur, which have required re-
mounting and other changes.

EXHIBITS Dil

Science and Technology

During the year sixteen new exhibits interpreting the history of
medicine, dentistry, and pharmacy were instailed on the east gallery
of the Arts and Industries building, bringing the total] of modernized
exhibits in the field of medical science to twenty-eight. Designed by
Ronald Elbert and Fred Craig from scripts prepared by curator John
B. Blake and associate curator Sami K. Hamarneh, these cases illus-
trate the practice of bloodletting through the ages, the development
of surgical anesthesia, spectacles, medicine chests, antique drug jars,
tools of the apothecary, and dental instruments. The exhibits were
planned for the future halls of the Museum of History and
Technology.

Dr. Blake completed the scripts for the remaiming exhibits in medi-
eal and dental history for the Museum of History and Technology,
and the design of these units was begun in May. Dr. Hamarneh
thoroughly revised the scripts for additional case units for the hall
of pharmacy and provided technical supervision for the restoration
and trial erection of an 1890 period drug store which will be a feature
exhibit of this hall in the new museum. A new exhibit on the eye was
installed in the hall of health.

Under the scientific direction of head curator Robert P. Multhauf,
the design of exhibits for the hall of physics and astronomy by Benja-
min W. Lawless and Ronald Elbert and for the hall of chemistry by
Barbara Bowes progressed steadily during the year. Production of
exhibits in the sections devoted to early physical science and classical
physics was begun May 1 and a dozen units were completed by the end
of June. <A special exhibition of the “geophysical globe,” a new reliet
globe of superior accuracy, was held in the rotunda of the Arts and
Industries building during April.

Acting curator W. James King continued the detailed planning of
exhibits for the hall of electricity with the assistance of consultants
Robert A. Chipman of the University of Toledo, Guenter Schwarz
of Florida State University, and Haraden Pratt, Secretary of the In-
stitute of Radio Engineers. A diorama prepared for exhibition in this
hall of the new building, depicting the broadeast of a program from
the studio of KDKA (one of the pioneer commercial broadcasting
stations in the world) during the winter of 1921-22, was placed on
pubhe display.

Curator Howard I. Chapelle continued the preparation of scripts
for the watercraft hall. An exhibition case was designed which pro-
vides a unique and flexible system for the display of ship models of
varying sizes and weights. A large percentage of the ship models in
the collections have been restored and replaced in the cases in the exist-
ing watercraft hall, giving that area a cleaner and neater appearance.

New ship models prepared for the historical series in the new museum
have been placed on exhibition as soon as they are received. A special
exhibition, featuring the model of the 1819 steamship Savannah, was
presented in the watercraft hall in celebration of National Maritime
Week, May 21-27.

Associate curator John H. White, Jr., wrote scripts for the railroad
hall, and these were used by exhibits designers James Mahoney and
Virginia Kneitel in designing units for the street railway and locomo-
tive sections of the hall. Production of street railway exhibits was
begun in May. The locomotive Pioneer, which served the Cumberland

Diorama of radio broadcasting studio of the early 1920’s, complete
with wind-up phonograph, was added to displays of early history

of electronics.

Valley Railroad in 1851, was placed on exhibition in the east hall in
February, and the cable car was removed for restoraticn prior to its
exhibition in the new building. New locomotive and street car models
have replaced old and inaccurate ones, and a scale model of the Norris
Locomotive Works has been added to the east hall exhibits.

Curator Eugene S. Ferguson wrote the exhibits script, collected
major specimens, and prepared specifications for models and dioramas
for the hall of tools of the Museum of History and Technology. The
design of exhibits for this hall by Harry Hart and Bright Springman
is nearing completion. Adequate equipment for a pre-Civil War ma-
chine shop was obtained after a search extending over four years,
and the systematic restoration of machine tools and other objects for
the hall of tools is going forward at an accelerated pace. Two land-
mark machine tools of 1865-1875, completely restored and made
operative by William Henson, were placed on exhibition in the south-

24 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

west gallery of the Arts and Industries building. The first, a Brown
and Sharpe No. 1 universal milling machine, is set up to mill the
flutes of twist drills, one of the first operations undertaken by this
type of machine. The other tool, a Jones & Lamson turret lathe,
is equipped with authentically reconstructed turret tools to produce
brass oil cups. Mr. Henson carried out the extensive research required
for the restoration of these tools.

Design was completed on the section of the hall of civil engineering
devoted to the history of tunneling, and preparation of study models
for eight scale models illustrating the development of soft ground and
rock tunneling methods was also completed under the technical direc-
tion of associate curator Robert M. Vogel. A temporary exhibition of
fine prints, drawings and photographs of 18th- and 19th-century civil
engineering works, planned by Mr. Vogel, was displayed from Febru-
ary 1 to April 30 in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries building.

Associate curator Edwin A. Battison continued to collect specimens
and to direct the restoration of intricate watch-making machinery and
other objects for exhibition im the hall of light machinery. For ex-
hibits in this hall he perfected scripts which are being designed by
Fred Craig. A particularly attractive display of decorative watches
was installed in the hall of timekeeping by Mrs. Dorothy Briggs, who
restored the watch and clock cases as well. Through the efforts of Mr.
Battison, the Schlage antique lock collection was shown for a period
of two months in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries building:
and three interesting automaton figures—a draftsman, a penman, and
an organist—from the Museum of Neuchatel, Switzerland, brought
to this country by Professor Edmond Droz, were publicly exhibited
from May 1 to May 14.

Arts and Manufactures

The modernized petroleum exhibit, which adjoins the iron and
steel exhibit in the Arts and Industries building, was opened to the
public in June. It provides a brief historical account of the growth of
the petroleum industry since the discovery of the Drake well at Titus-
ville, Pennsylvania, in 1859.

The exhibit is introduced by an illustration of ancient uses of
natural asphalt, and animated models showing the two earliest meth-
ods of drilling used in the United States: the spring-pole and the
Drake rig. A section of Drake’s drive pipe displayed with the models
provides a direct link with this historic enterprise. One of the few
surviving bottles of Kier’s petroleum recalls that use as a medicine pre-
ceded its application to lighting and Inbrication. Some of the prob-

lems of the kerosene era are presented, and an early use of the by-
product gases is indicated in the form of a Gilbert and Barker gas-
machine, in use until the 1940’s in a school laboratory.

A small display of geophysical exploration equipment, made possi-
ble by the generosity of Seismos GmbH., Humble Oil Company, Con-
tinental Oil Company, Schlumberger, and Mr. Everett Lee DeGolyer,
Jr., reviews the principal methods employed to expand the knowledge
of America’s oil resources. The first well to be drilled off-shore (Cre-
ole No. 1) is shown in the form of a model presented by the Pure Oil
Company.

With the cooperation of Standard Oil Company (Indiana), Uni-
versal Oil Products Company, Esso Standard Oil Company, M. W.
Kellogg Company, Mr. C. P. Dubbs, and the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology (Prof. Harold Weber), an account of the major de-
developments in oil refining is presented by means of full-scale
equipment and models accompanied by explanatory flow charts.

The climax of “refining” prior to the automobile era is commem-
orated by a museum-designed model of a cheese-box still. The
experimental still used by Drs. Burton and Humphries at Whiting,
Indiana, which led to the first large-scale thermal cracking of crude,
was graciously donated to the museum by Dr. Robert Wilson. The
Dubbs clean-circulation process, representative of major developments
in cheaper refining after World War I, is shown in a contemporary
model. A model of a polymerization plant shows one of the earliest
processes for increasing the high octane content of gasoline, one that
was important in making fuel available for the allied air forces in
1939-1940. The historic fluid-catalytic cracking process, evolved in
1941 to provide the vast quantities of fuel needed by the U.S. Air
Force, is also shown. Finally, a platinum-catalyst reforming process
is demonstrated as a sample of the post-war effort to convert lower-
grade to higher-grade fuel.

The importance of natural gas is brought out in a graphic explana-
tion of the use of exhausted oil-measures for reserve storage. A mod-
ern highway, in model form, draws attention to the fact that asphalt
is now a product of the petroleum refineries. The American Gas As-
sociation and the Asphalt Institute have collaborated with the museum
in the preparation of these exhibits.

This hall was planned by head curator Philip W. Bishop in coopera-
tion with exhibits designers Thaddeus McDowell, Riddick Vann, and
Benjamin W. Lawless, assistant chief of exhibits.

Other exhibits will be added to those in this hall to expand the
interpretation of the story of petroleum in the new museum. <A large
map of the United States portraying the growth of production and

reserves and the development of various means of transportation of
gas and crude oil is under construction. This map is the gift of the
American Petroleum Institute.

Renovation of the textile exhibits was completed with the opening
of the third and last section of the textile hall gallery to the public on
December 9, 1960. This section presents the origin and history of
lace-making and rug-making, and displays popular types of American
needlework. Among these, old American quilts are shown in an
automatic case equipped with a selector dial, permitting the exhibition
of ten quilts in a space previously required for two. The quilts are
exposed to heht for a brief viewing time, which can be set at a master
control point.

Over 100 samplers dating from the 18th and 19th centuries are
exhibited in specially designed pull-out frames so that the fragile
fabrics are protected from fading when not being viewed. Also dis-
played are a fine collection of laces, from 16th-century drawn-work to
machine-made laces of the 19th century, and examples of both hand
and machine netting techniques.

Two temporary exhibits are of particular interest. One shows 27
lace and needlework handkerchiefs of the 19th century selected from
the permanent collections. The other, on loan from Mr. Cornelius
Roosevelt, includes an excellent embroidered wall hanging made by
his mother, Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., an accomplished needle-
woman. This colorful embroidery depicts one scene from the fairy
tale of the Golden Cockerel. With it is shown an incomplete com-
panion piece on the embroidery frame, made by her son, which Mrs.
Roosevelt used.

Preparation and installation of the lace and needlework was carried
out under the direction of associate curator Grace L. Rogers by staff
member Doris Bowman, assisted by summer interne Barbara Shafritz.
The exhibits were designed by Robert Widder.

These new textile exhibits, with additional permanent exhibits and
temporary displays, will be installed in the Museum of History and
Technology.

Pre-installation display preparation for the hall of graphic arts
has been completed. The John I. Wells hand press was refurbished
and the bed support, rounce (or winch), and attendant leather pulley
system were overhauled and repaired. Associate curator Eugene N.
Ostroff reviewed and began rewriting the scripts for the exhibits of
the hall of photography, which will include both working models and
historic specimens. Because the exhibition area for photography in
the Arts and Industries building was being revised, no special photo-
graphic exhibits were held during the year.

Theodore A. Randall, head of the department of design, New York
State College of Ceramics, Alfred, N.Y., continued as a consultant for
the division of ceramics. A competition for the design of a fountain,
and for a decorative wall grill for the hall of ceramics, is being held
among the students at the College. Contracts were awarded for two
architectural features for the hall of glass, a stained glass entrance
panel and an intaglo design in plate glass representing a glass blower.

Important recent accessions by the division of ceramics and glass
have been featured in exhibits in the Natural History building.

An experimental fuel-cell tractor developed by the Allis-Chalmers
Manufacturing Company was placed on display in the hall of farm
machinery in October. Throughout the year a rotating exhibition of
color photographs lent by the Soil Conservation Service of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture was maintained at the east end of this
hall. The preliminary script for the hall of wood products completed
by consultant Carl Rischell, was studied by associate curator E. C.
Kendall and exhibits designer Riddick Vann as a basis for developing
a layout of exhibits.

Provisional exhibit scripts for the halls of nuclear energy, iron and
steel, and mining were prepared during the year by the division of
manufactures and heavy industries, and head curator Philip W. Bishop
and associate curator Charles O. Houston, Jr., carried forward nego-
tiations intensively throughout the year with the industrial firms and
trade associations whose aid is essential to the development of the
exhibits.

was formally opened in the Arts and Industries building on March 18,
1961, in the presence of the Secretary of the Treasury, the Under
Secretary of the Treasury, Senator Clinton P. Anderson, Representa-
tive Frank T. Bow, Regents of the Smithsonian Institution, members
of the diplomatic corps, donors, collectors, and representatives of
numismatic organizations from all sections of the country. The cen-
tral series of 19 specially designed cases traces the major aspects of
the development of money economy from primitive barter to the
establishment of our modern monetary systems. The series relates
the evolution of money, an integral part of the cultural development
of human society, to a sequence of significant historical events. Thus
the coins, tokens, and paper currencies are made more meaningful to
nonspecialists than would be their display in the conventional classifi-
cations of the numismatist. Special emphasis is given to the develop-
ment of the various forms of currencies in North America and their
role in the economic and political growth of the United States. Table
cases of topical displays on “The Origin of Coim Names,” “The Re-
formation,” “Confederate Currencies,” and “State Bank Notes” com-
plete the monetary history section of this hall. A reconstruction of
the coin-stamper designed by the renowned Italian artist and inventor,
Leonardo da Vinei (1452-1519), which marked the introduction of
mechanization in coining techniques, occupies a prominent position
in the hall.

A significant section of this hall is devoted to the United States
Mint collection, the oldest collection of coins owned by the govern-
ment. The hall also features the world’s largest collection of gold
coins on public display, a type collection of 1,850 gold coins of Europe
and the Americas given to the Smithsonian Institution by the late
Paul A. Straub. Almost 4,000 silver coins complement this series.

The small size and considerable value of the coins, as well as the
danger of damage to paper money from fading, present special prob-
Jems in the museum display of these materials. The 19 upright cases
containing the history of money displays have internal lighting of the
cold cathode variety. The light boxes are equipped with specially
designed Lucite (methacrylate) lenses which insure even light dis-
tribution within the cases and at the same time filter some of the
more damaging radiations. The coins are placed whenever possible
in tightly closed boxes made of clear cellulcse triacetate K TV which
are in turn attached to the display panel with small Velcro dises or
strips, facilitating the removal of coins for study purposes and re-
placement of coins on display.

EXHIBITS 31

Displays of money from other countries and other times add meaning
and perspective to the exhibits of U.S. currency.

All paper currencies are protected by Plexiglas G, 4% inch un-
shrunk, which has ultra-violet absorbency of 100 percent at 3830+
millimicrons. The windows of the hall itself are covered with filters
having a hght transmission of only 8 percent.

The completion of this hall would not have been possible without
the assistance of many public and private institutions and organiza-
tions as well as most generous gifts from numerous private citizens
of the United States. The exhibits were planned and thew prepara-
tion supervised by Mrs. Elvira Clain-Stefanelli, associate curator of
numismatics. They were designed by Harry Hart.

A special exhibit featuring 250 masterpieces of ancient Greek
coinage, prepared by Mrs. Clain-Stefanelli from material loaned by

1961, in the rotunda of the Arts and Industries building and from
March 18 to May 26, 1961, in the monetary history hall. It included
outstanding examples marking the evolution of Greek coinage from
the 7th to the 2d centuries B.C. Beginning June 21, 1961, two cases
featuring “Paper Currencies of the World” were put on display.
The division of numismatics also contributed special exhibits to the
National Numismatic Convention in Boston, August 24-27, 1960.

Under the supervision of curator Wilcomb E. Washburn, aided by
designer Robert Widder, the greater part of the pre-installation dis-
play preparation for the hall of American politics has been completed
by the exhibits laboratory. Several temporary topical exhibits were

arranged by the division of political history. An inaugural exhibit

was displayed from December 1960 to March 1961, and during the
same period state gifts presented to President Eisenhower were shown.
Early voting machines and presidential commemorative material were
exhibited during February 1961.

Associate curator Margaret Brown Klapthor completed the ex-
hibits scripts for the new First Ladies hall, and all labels for these
exhibits were edited. Restoration of two Washington period rooms
progressed, and the sketch model was approved for a diorama portray-
ing Dolley Madison removing furnishings from the White House
during the War of 1812. Studies of possible modifications in the
treatment of mannequins for the First Ladies hall were pursued in
the laboratory. During the year the White House china collection

34 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

was expanded so that representative pieces from almost every ad-
ministration are now on exhibition.

Production of exhibits for the hall of costumes was continued and
over 80 per cent of the units for this hall were completed by the end
of June. Assistant curator Anne W. Murray prepared detailed
specifications for 21 mannequins to be used in the display of period
costumes.

During the year the overall layout of exhibits and design of cases
for the hall of philately and postal history were completed, and at
year’s end the graphic design of the series of exhibits to interpret the
history of the post was nearing completion. The scripts for these
exhibits were written by George T. Turner, associate curator in
charge, and assistant curator Carl H. Scheele. A selected group of
historical items from The Postal History Museum of the Post Office
Department, which was transferred to the Smithsonian Institution
April 1, was placed on exhibition in the existing philately hall. To
coincide with the issuance of a new United States stamp bearing a
likeness of the 50-star American flag, a display of stamps of foreign
nations which feature the United States flag was prepared for
July 4, 1960.

Exhibits for the hall of everyday life in the American past, planned
by curator C. Malcolm Watkins and designed by exhibits chief John
EK. Anglim, advanced to the production stage in March. By the end
of June more than 20 percent of the wall case exhibits for this large
hall were produced. Meanwhile, George H. Watson continued his
painstaking restoration of period rooms to be shown in this hall and
has thus far completed pre-installation work on eight of these projects.
On May 26, 1961, a rare American wooden statue of William Pitt,
carved in 1801 by Joseph Wilson for the eccentric “Lord” Timothy
Dexter of Newburyport, Mass., was placed on exhibition in the cul-
tural history hall. This statue, the gift of Mrs. Arthur M. Green-
wood, was restored with remarkable skill by exhibits technician Gor-
don Dentry.

Associate curator John D. Shortridge prepared exhibit scripts for
the section of keyboard instruments which will occupy the central
area of the hall of musical instruments in the Museum of History and
Technology. Architects for the building completed their design of
the architectural features of this hall, and Allyn Cox’s sketches for
the wall decorations were approved by the Fine Arts Commission,

Associate curator Peter ©. Welsh and consultant Anthony N. B.
Garvan completed the scripts for exhibits in the second of the halls
to be devoted to interpretation of the growth of the United States.
This hall covers the period 1640 to 1740 in American history. Robert
Widder made progress on the design of exhibits for the hall that
interprets the period 1750 to 1850. Mr. George Watson completed

EXHIBITS 35

restoration work on one period installation for this series of exhibits
and made marked progress in the advance preparation of two others.

From January 15 to February 5 the first public showing of the
recently acquired Harry T. Peters’ “America on Stone” lithography
collection was held in the foyer of the Natural History building.
This exhibition of more than one hundred selected prints, entitled
“The Victorian American,” subsequently was circulated by the Smith-
sonian Traveling Exhibition Service.

Armed Forces History

The development of the hall of ordnance and the series of halls
interpreting the history of our Armed Forces was a major activity of
all curators, who participated in frequent consultations with the ex-
hibit designers and model makers designing and producing exhibits
for these halls.

Head curator Mendel L. Peterson, curator Edgar M. Howell, and
associate curator Philip K. Lundeberg supplied information and
specimens to designer Fred Craig which enabled him to complete the
detailed design of units for the first third of the extensive series of
displays on the history of the Armed Forces. The program of build-
ing and restoring the warship models that will illustrate compre-
hensively the evolution of the United States man-of-war was con-
tinued, and specifications were prepared for the construction of scale
models of representative military and naval aircraft.

Following specifications prepared by associate curator Craddock hk.
Goins and his colleagues, designer John Brown completed the designs
for a considerable number of the exhibits for the hall of ordnance.
Robert Klinger, Donald Holst, Anthony Fiore, and Paul Richards of
the model shop produced for this hall an exceptionally fine series of
scale models of field, siege, and ships’ guns of the 15th through the
19th centuries. Production of panel exhibits was begun in June.

Mr. Howell, in consultation with the architects of the building,
developed detailed plans for the feature exhibit of the Star Spangled
Banner, in the rotunda of the new museum.

A complete display of United States military decorations and
medals, and a Civil War 12-pounder gun on its carriage were added to
the existing displays in the hall of military history. A number of
warship models, relating particularly to the Civil War, were added to
the exhibits in the hall of naval history, while other models were
progressively retired for major restoration, which normally involves
complete repainting and re-rigging, and frequently requires extensive
research in the interest of detailed historical accuracy.

During September a special exhibition of memorabilia of Gen. John
J. Pershing was placed on view in the rotunda of the Arts and Indus-
tries building in conjunction with the national celebration of General

36 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

Pershing’s birth. Roman antiquities recovered from the Mediterra-
nean and the Sea of Galilee by the Link expedition during the previous
summer were displayed from April 1 to April 26.

The division of military history prepared a special exhibition of
military epaulets for the annual meeting of the Company of Military
Collectors and Historians, May 19-21, at Gettysburg, Pa. Naval,
military, and ordnance materials recovered from a 17th-century ship-
wreck site were displayed by the division of naval history at the same
meeting. This division also cooperated with the Department of the
Navy in providing specimens for exhibition at the Museum of Science
and Industry, Chicago, Il1., and at the Hall of State, Dallas Historical
Society, Dallas, Tex.

Union Gunboat Benton. Converted from a Mississippi River snag boat
in 1861 by James B. Eads of St. Louis, Missouri, this 202-foot iron-
clad served as flagship of the Western Flotilla which spearheaded
early Federal victories in the Mississippi Valley. Wearing the com-
mand pennant of Flag Officer Andrew Hull Foote, the Benton
mounted a battery of two IX-inch Dahlgren guns, four 42-pounders,
two 50-pounders, and eight 32-pounders, constituting the heaviest
armament in the Union flotilla. As indicated by this model (scale:
Ys inch=1 foot) recently received by the division of naval history,
the Benton consisted essentially of an armored casemate, mounted
on two narrow hulls, between which was located a paddle wheel.

Accessions
During the fiscal year 1961

During the past year accessions added 971,150 specimens to the na-
tional collections. These materials were distributed among the eight
departments as follows: anthropology, 19,764; zoology, 369,701; bot-
any, 103,160; geology, 229,676; science and technology, 4,231; arts
and manufactures, 5,521; civil history, 237,323; and armed forces his-
tory, 1,774. This total includes 228,911 stamps, 223,501 insects, and
95,102 marine invertebrates. The accessions for the most part were
received as gifts from individuals or as transfers from government
departments and agencies. A full list of donors will be found on
page 116.

Anthropology

The division of archeology received by transfer from the River
Basin Surveys 5,153 artifacts collected at numerous prehistoric sites
in South Dakota and Wyoming. Mrs. Virginia M. Pollak added to
her earlier generous donations a wooden ibis from the Ptolemaic-
Roman period of Egypt.

Dr. David C. Graham of Englewood, Colo., honorary research as-
sociate in biology, gave to the division of ethnology two scrolls written
in the Chinese and Manchurian languages and representing awards
in the years 1753 and 1868 for loyal services to the Chinese government.
From the estate of John T. Owen was received a late 19th century
Chinese four-panel, lacquer screen. The decoration thereon, showing
four birds in a natural setting, has been executed by inlaying mother-
of-pearl, rose quartz, white and stained ivory, and semiprecious stones.
Dr. F. F. Fellows, of West Linn, Oreg., presented 54 ethnological
specimens of Eskimo manufacture which he had collected at Icy Cape,
Alaska, in 1908. Dr. Leo Stoor, of Cleveland, Ohio, presented 104
smoking pipes, mainly from the Near East, India, China, and Japan.
In exchange from John H. Brandt, of New York City, came 84 Micro-
nesian ethnological objects. Among the rare specimens in this collec-
tion is a type of necklace from Yap no longer obtainable from the
natives. From the Ossining (N.Y.) Public Schools came two Pacific
Islands fishhooks, one of which, an Hawaiian circular turtle-shell
hook, was collected about 1840 and is now rare.

ACCESSIONS 39

The collection of the American Negro skeletal remains in the ‘di-
vision of physical anthropology was increased by 14 skulls and a few
miscellaneous bones recovered by the District of Columbia Coroner,
Dr. A. Magruder MacDonald, when an abandoned cemetery near the
Calvert Street bridge in Washington was exposed in the course of
building operations. The Zoller Laboratory of Dental Anthropology
of the University of Chicago presented 11 standard models for classi-
fying crown characters of human deciduous teeth. The models, ac-
companied by an explanatory manual, were prepared by Dr. Kazuro
Hanihara, of Sapporo Medical College, Japan, and are based on a
series of 600 subjects representing various racial groups.

Zoology

Forty-two accessions added a total of 4,076 specimens to the col-
lection in the division of mammals. Nearly 1,000 specimens from
Formosa and 400 from North Borneo were collected by field parties
of U.S. Naval Medical Research Unit No. 2 and forwarded by Dr.
Robert EK. Kuntz. Two important collections were received from
South Vietnam, an area heretofore very poorly represented: Bernard
R. Feinstein, of the Museum staff, working in cooperation with the
Army Medical Research and Development Command and the Bernice
P. Bishop Museum, sent 600 mammals; and Dr. Robert Traub for-
warded 121 additional specimens collected by the U.S. Army Medical
Research Unit. From Panama, Captain Vernon J. Tipton sent 273
specimens collected by the Army Preventive Medicine Division.
Numerous smaller collections were received from localities within the
United States; E. V. Komarek presented 83 mammals, mostly car-
nivores, from the southeastern states, as well as an additional lot of
53 small mammals from the same area; Russell E. Mumford and
Ralph D. Kirkpatrick each continued to send mammals from Indiana;
and the Virginia State Department of Health, through J. T. Banks
and T. M. Mullmann, presented 44 mammals collected in the course
of epidemiological surveys. Other contributions to the much desired
improvement of our mammal collections from the Middle Atlantic
States were received from Lyle Conrad, Bernard R. Feinstein, E. H.
Geil, C. O. Handley, Sr., C. O. Handley, Jr., Robert D. Jackson,
Kenneth I. Lange, J. C. Lingebach, and Daniel I. Rhymer.

Some of the most important accessions in the division of birds came
from the same sources that were responsible for several of the mam-
mal collections referred to above. <A series of 512 bird skins from the
lowlands of North Borneo was received from the U.S. Naval Medical
Research Unit No. 2. A total of 565 bird skins, 6 alcoholic specimens,
and 20 skeletons from South Vietnam resulted from the activities

40) U.S. NATIONAL MUSKUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

sponsored by the Bernice P. Bishop Museum and the Army Medical
Research and Development Command. No less than 1,411 skins and
19 skeletons from North America were received by transfer from the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The U.S. Naval Medical Research
Unit No. 2 was also credited with 1,081 skins and 6 alcoholic specimens
from Formosa.

The division of reptiles and amphibians received several noteworthy
collections. Leslhe Hubricht donated 19 salamanders from Alabama,
including the holotype of a new genus and species. A fine series of
Virginia amphibians, mostly salamanders, collected by the late Walter

Green moray eel Gymnothorax funebris, caught near Cat Cay in the
Bahamas. Six feet two inches long and weighing 42 pounds, it was
given to the Museum by Al Pflueger.

B. Newman, was received as a gift from his mother, Mrs. Helen B.
Newman; this collection contains type material of two species. By
transfer from the U.S. Army Medical Research Unit, through Lt.
Col. H. J. Baker, came 29 snakes, mostly from Selangor, an area from
which we have had few specimens. Material from the U.S. Naval
Medical Research Unit No. 2, through Dr. Robert KE. Kuntz, amounted
to 116 snakes from Formosa. <A series of 28 Venezuelan reptiles and
amphibians collected for the Museum by C. O. Handley, Jr., and D. I.
Rhymer contains some frogs that are valuable for comparison with
Colombian material now being studied. Similarly, 39 reptiles and
amphibians collected in South Vietnam by Bernard R. Feinstein are
a valuable adjunct to our collections from Thailand.

The largest collection received in the division of fishes consists of
2,702 specimens from the Fourth Smithsonian—Bredin Caribbean
Expedition. Another large collection, totalling 1,114 fishes, was re-
ceived from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, through Harvey

ACCESSIONS 41

KR. Bullis, Jr., and Daniel M. Cohen. These collections are import-
ant as they contain specimens of value to the current research of sev-
eral investigators. Dr. Eugenie Clark, of the Cape Haze Marine
Laboratory, Placida, Fla., and Dr. H. Steinitz, of the Hebrew Uni-
versity of Jerusalem, donated 778 marine fishes that were collected
in the Red Sea by Dr. Clark; these specimens are very valuable be-
cause the Red Sea area is the type locality of numerous kinds of
fishes, some of which are endemic. Dr. Hurst Shoemaker, of the
American University of Beirut, donated 361 fishes from Lebanon.
Among the valuable collections sent in for identification were 453
Formosan fishes received from Dr. Robert E. Kuntz, U.S. Naval
Medical Research Unit No. 2, and 728 specimens from Africa and
South America received from Dr. Herbert R. Axelrod, of Tropical
Fish Hobbyist Publications, Jersey City.

The John C. Lutz collection of Hemiptera, consisting of 87,371
specimens, was the most outstanding accession in the division of
insects; this collection, which contains 668 types of various kinds
including holotypes of 15 species, is particularly rich in Neotropical
species, many of which were not previously represented in the national
collections. Another very important insect accession is the N.
Baranov collection of Palaearctic tachnid flies, consisting of 4,611
specimens representing 305 genera, 68 of which are new to our col-
lections, and 812 species, of which 499 were not previously available
for study here; no less than 129 species are represented by type
material, including 43 holotypes and 51 paratypes. Individuals who
made important contributions to the national insect collection are:
Dr. Charles P. Alexander, Amherst, Mass., who donated 3,306 mis-
cellaneous specimens from North and South America; A. J. Ford,
of Honolulu, who presented 2,915 Hawaiian insects; Dr. J.
Maldonado-Capriles, who contributed 2,938 miscellaneous specimens
from Pakistan; O. L. Cartwright, U.S. National Museum, who do-
nated 10,000 scarab beetles; William E. Sieker, who presented 2,127
Lepidoptera from Wisconsin; Dr. Douglas Gould, who gave approxi-
mately 3,000 mites; N. L. H. Krauss, who continued his enthusiastic
support of the national collections by contributing 7,848 miscellaneous
insects from various parts of the world; and Dr. Karl V. Krombein,
who presented 1,127 Hymenoptera which are of special value because
they are the basis of biological studies being conducted by the donor.

Contributing materially to another record-breaking year for acces-
sions in the division of marine invertebrates were 54,480 amphipod
crustaceans, including 15 type specimens, received from the Scripps
Institution of Oceanography, University of California. From the
Universitetets Zoologiske Museum, Copenhagen, through Dr. H.
Volsée, we received 9 deep-sea invertebrates from the world-renowned

609091614

42 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

Danish Deepsea Expedition of the Galathea, including paratypes of
unusual holothurians, starfishes, polychaete worms, and sea anemones.
The Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, The Netherlands,
through Dr. L. B. Holthuis, donated 402 crustaceans, including two
seyllarid lobsters and an authoritatively identified set of European
isopods. <A collection of 5,528 miscellaneous Antarctic invertebrates
from Operation Deep Freeze IV was received from Stanford Uni-
versity, through Dr. Donald E. Wohlschlag. Another large series
of 5,256 miscellaneous marine invertebrates was collected for the
Museum in Bermuda by Mrs. LaNelle W. Peterson.

The most important accession in the division of mollusks was 12,200
specimens collected for the Museum at Jaluit Atoll, in the southern
Marshall Islands, by Dr. Harald A. Rehder. The Fourth Smith-
sonian-Bredin Caribbean Expedition added 6,000 mollusks from
Yucatan. Dr. Wendell P. Woodring collected 485 specimens of
marine mollusks on the Atlantic coast of Panama. From the In-
stitute of Oceanology of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR,
through Dr. Z. A. Filatova, came 607 specimens of fresh-water mol-
lusks from the USSR.

Botany

The most important accession of the year was the Oladonia collec-
tion of the late Alexander W. Evans, consisting of 39,204 specimens,
received in exchange from the Osborn Botanical Laboratory of Yale
University. Others, also in exchange, were 2,895 unusually fine spec-
imens of Phododendron and Primula collected in Asia by George
Forest, received from the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh, Scot-
land; 7,786 specimens of Asia and South America, mostly significant
historical collections, from the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle,
Paris; 1,287 plants of Indonesia from the Herbarium Bogoriense,
Bogor, Indonesia; and 527 photographs of plants in the Philip Miller
Herbarium from the Bailey Hortorium, Ithaca, N.Y.

From the American Museum of Natural History were received
15,780 specimens collected by L. J. Brass on the Sixth Archbold
Expedition to New Guinea. The University of California, Berkeley,
sent 497 specimens of South American plants collected by W. Eyer-
dam on the Sixth Botanical Garden Expedition to the Andes, in return
for identifications.

Dr. Mason E. Hale and Dr. Thomas R. Soderstrom collected 3,841
specimens, mostly lichens, in Mexico for the Museum, and Dr. John
KK. Ebinger collected 5,086 specimens in Panama, primarily on Barro
Colorado Island. From the U.S. Geological Survey, Department
of the Interior, were transferred 2,650 Alaskan plants collected by
Lloyd Spetzman.

During the past year the meteorite collection continued its growth.
Seven meteorites new to the collection were obtained: Abee, Canada;
Bruderheim, Canada; Kandahar, Afghanistan; Treysa, Germany;
Utzenstorf, Switzerland; Aroos, Russia; and Moab, United States.
Exchanges for meteorites and tektites were carried out with the fol-
lowing institutions; University of Bern, University of Adelaide, Uni-
versity of California, Max Planck Institut fiir Chemie; Universitets
Mineralogiske Museum (Copenhagen), University of Kentucky, Uni-
versity of Alberta, National Musenm of Australia, Gorny Institute
(Leningrad), Naturhistorisches Museum (Bern), Academy of
Sciences of the USSR, and the Geological Survey of Canada.

Some important fossil collections were acquired by the division of
invertebrate paleontology and paleobotany. The American Museum
of Natural History donated the famous Greene collection consisting
mostly of Devonian corals from the Falls of the Ohio region in In-
diana and Kentucky. A bequest was received from the estate of Mrs.

tuby F. Renfro of approximately 50,000 specimens of Pennsylvanian,

Permian, and Cretaceous fossils of north central Texas and a small
collection from Europe. Other gifts include 1,000 Devonian inverte-
brate fossils from the upper Dundee limestone and the Silica shale,
Michigan and Ohio, presented by Dr. Erle G. Kauffman; 36 fossil
crabs from the Miocene of Virginia, from George Webb; and 167
smaller Foraminifera from the Mississippian of southern Indiana,
Kentucky, Tennessee, and Ohio, presented by Dr. J. E. Conkin.

ACCESSIONS AD

This topaz, shown full size, is from Minas Gerais, Brazil, and weighs
3,273 carats. It is the largest cut blue topaz in the world.

Funds from the income of the Walcott bequest made possible field
work which yielded 600 echinoids from the Paleocene, collected in
Georgia by Dr. Porter Kier in collaboration with Dr. Druid Wilson,
of the U.S. Geological Survey; 2,500 Upper Cretaceous, Paleocene,
and Eocene invertebrate fossils collected in Maryland by Dr. Erle G.
Kauffman with Dr. Norman F. Sohl and Dr. Harlan R. Bergquist, of
the U.S. Geological Survey; and 1,000 Pennsylvanian fossils collected
in Texas by Drs. G. Arthur Cooper and Richard E. Grant.

The outstanding accession received in the division of vertebrate
paleontology was a series of about 202 specimens representing fish,
amphibians, and reptiles from various Permian formations in Texas
and Kansas, collected by Dr. Nicholas Hotton III and John E. Gass-
away through funds provided by the Walcott bequest. Particular
mention is made of a nearly complete and articulated skeleton of the
small predaceous amphibian A croplous vorax taken from the Permian
Speiser formation of Kansas, and a large part of a skeleton of the
primitive cotylosaurian reptile Labidosaurus sp., from the Permian
Arroyo formation of Texas. A rare and remarkably well-preserved
ray fish, together with a gar pike and a partial skeleton of a bird

which may prove to be a fossil booby, from the Eocene Green River
formation of southwestern Wyoming, were purchased through the
Walcott bequest. The jaws, part of the skull, and several vertebrae
of a very large baleen whale were collected from the Miocene York-
town formation near Hampton, Va., by Dr. Nicholas Hotton III, Kurt
F. Hauschildt, and Dr. Frank C. Whitmore, Jr. Dr. Hotton, assisted
by William E. Moran, a former Smithsonian employee, also secured a
partial skeleton, including the greater part of a skull, of a rare em-
bolomerous amphibian from the Mauch Chunk formation of
Mississippian age, near Greer, W.Va.

Science and Technology

The division of physical sciences acquired two astrolabes of unusual
interest. Through the generosity of Lessing J. Rosenwald a very fine
medieval English instrument was received, having as a notable feature
zoomorphie star pointers. Although undated and unsigned, it is dated
by the calendar scale about 1325. A second astrolabe received this year
is an Hispano-Moorish instrument by Muhammad ibn-Sahli. In its
decoration it exhibits a mixture of Islamic, Christian, and Jewish
characteristics.

Two major refrigerating machines for exhibit in the new hall of
power machinery were received this year: the first commercially suc-
cessful centrifugal refrigeration compressor from Carrier Corpora-
tion, and a typical steam-driven reciprocating ammonia compressor
from Clifton Springs Sanitarium and Clinic. The compressor was
generously restored by the Frick Company. ‘The first seven bridge
models for the new hall of civil engineering were completed; they
exhibit an unusually high level of excellence in the model builder’s art.

About 3,000 original large tracings, on cloth, of heavy mining
machinery for the period 1875-1902 were received from Calumet &
Hecla, Inc. This valuable collection represents an important part of
the creative work of Erasmus D. Leavitt (1836-1916), a widely known
and highly honored mechanical engineer. The archival collections of
the division have grown, largely through the efforts of associate
curator Vogel, to a major repository of source materials in the history
of mechanical and civil engineering.

The Cumberland Valley Railroad locomotive Pioneer, built by Seth Wil-
marth in 1851. Gift of the Pennsylvania Railroad through its vice-
president John S. Fair, the locomotive was placed on exhibit in
February 1961.

AS U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

An early (1903) gear-shaping machine from the Fellows Gear
Shaper Co., intended for exhibit in the new hall of tools, is one of a
growing collection of machine tools that were significant in the rise
of the United States as an industrial nation. The first universal
erinder (1883) by Abraham B. Landis and an animated model of a
modern large transfer-type machine for high-production grinding of
automobile crankshafts were received from the Landis Tool Co.

With a particularly gracious gesture, Monseigneur Roger Michon,
of Chartres Cathedral, provided us with a color transparency of the
Cathedral’s stained glass window of “Le Tourneur,” by a 13th century
craftsman. The window, located high in the Cathedral, was photo-
graphed personally by Msgr. Michon with his own telescopic equip-
ment. He noted with pleasure that “Chartres will be represented in
your new Museum.”

Among the outstanding gifts in the section of marine transporta-
tion is a model of the brigantine sloop Ferret. This Admiralty model
is a gift of Lansdell K. Christie. From the Grace Line, Inc., we re-
ceived a model of the passenger liner Santa Paula. Other outstand-
ing models received were the blockade runner Yergus, paddle steamer
George Law, whaleback Frank Rockefeller, New York pilot boat
Anna Maria, and the Savannah, 1819 steamship that crossed the At-
lantic Ocean. In the section of land transportation a colonial chaise,
together with funds for its restoration, was received from Stewart
Huston. Also received wasa collection of fire fighting apparatus from
Dr. Karl B. Bretzfelder. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company,
through L. W. Sagle, donated a collection of glass-plate negatives and
car drawings.

The division of electricity has been particularly fortunate in obtain-
ing the Palmer Collection of early electrical equipment from Prince-
ton University. The collection is an important one and provided most
of the illustrations in M. Maclaren’s “Rise of the Electrical Industry
During the 19th Century.” It is exceptionally rich in examples of
laboratory meters, telephonic apparatus, power switch-gear, and in-
candescent lamps. Two other large groups of specimens were also
acquired; one from Brown University, consisting primarily of motors
and generators, together with some interesting wireless telegraph
equipment, and one from the Weston Instrument Company, consisting
of early commercial meters. The Standardizing Laboratory of the
General Electric Company is also sending us a fine collection of meters
of the 1880's.

Among the commercial pieces, some of the most outstanding were:
a telegraph message sent by marine cable from London to Bombay in
1873, from Mrs. Isabel M. Goetschises; a Westinghouse alternator of
the late 1880’s, from Cornell University; an example of the klystron

first used to supply the power for high energy linear accelerators, from
Stanford University through E. L. Ginzton; and a complete mechani-
cal television transmitter, from the State University of Iowa.

The collections of timekeeping instruments have been considerably
enhanced by the acquisition of a David Rittenhouse half-size tall clock,
which has an astronomical type dial. Only one other precision clock
by Rittenhouse is known, and it has undergone much rebuilding. This
clock is one of his earlier works and is probably entirely the prod-
uct of his own hands. Several other outstanding clocks were also
obtained, including one from Gideon Roberts, who introduced mass-
produced wooden clocks.

Among the accessions in medical sciences during the past year has
been a significant collection of dental instruments, from the S. S.
White Dental Manufacturing Company; most important were those
related to dental drilling. The New England Hospital for Women
and Children Nurses Alumnae Association donated an early uniform,
worn by Linda Richards, and other personal memorabilia, including
a Tolles microscope. Miss Richards was the first woman to receive a
diploma from any American training school for nurses. A number
of medals, diplomas, and other memorabilia have been received from
the estate of Abraham Flexner, in accordance with his bequest. Addi-
tions to the drug-jar collection included two 16th century Belgian jars
and one 19th century Danish jar. A 19th century Robervahl balance
was received from J. Stanley Falck.

Arts and Manufactures

The division of textiles received a collection of over a hundred 19th-
century sewing machines, presented by the Singer Manufacturing
Company through Bogart F. Thompson. Machines previously un-
represented in the collection include an 1849 Morey and Johnson ma-
chine and an 1849 Blodgett and Lerow, both predecessors of the
famous Singer machine, and many 19th-century patent models of
Singer and other machines. An outstanding collection of over two
hundred sewing birds, hemming clamps, and related needlework acces-
sories was donated by Miss Mabel Whiteley.

Mrs. Herbert Arthur May presented an interesting collection of
laces and embroidery, including examples of Chantilly, Brussels,
Maltese, and Venetian needlepoint. Mrs. May also gave to the divi-
sion of ceramics and glass 13 pieces of American glass from a special
service made for her yacht Sea Cloud.

Other specimens accessioned by the division of ceramics and
glass are: a rare Castleford urn with painted decorations, presented
by Mrs. George H. Myers; 28 pieces of porcelain, including an English
Lowestoft teapot, a China trade porcelain fruit basket, Sevres tea set,

50 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

and a Liverpool coffee pot, all of the 18th century, donated by Mrs.
Wilham A. Sutherland; and a unique piece of Americana, consisting
of an Oriental Lowestoft cider jug and cover, with painted decorations
with the inscription “Jefferson and Liberty,” surmounted by an Ameri-
can eagle and 17 stars, given by R. Thornton Wilson.

A fine group of chiaroscuro woodcuts was acquired by the division
of graphic arts. The group includes two examples by the important
early 16th-century pioneer, Antonio da Trento, S#. Matthew and The
Martyrdom of St. Paul and St. Peter; The Descent from the Cross, by
Ugo da Carpi, founder of the chiaroscuro process in Italy; works by
the most important 17th century practitioners, such as Aeneas Carry-
ing Anchises by Ludolph Businek; Death of Lucretia by Paulus More-
else; and Sibyl with Books and Virgin with Jesus and John by Barto-
lomeo Coriolano. The 18th century is represented by John Baptist
Jackson’s Pieta and the outline block for his The Virgin in the Clouds
and Six Saints. Ralph E. Wareham presented to the section of pho-
tography a Lechrome National Photocolor One-Shot Color Camera.
This type of camera simultaneously exposes a complete set of color
separation negatives which are used to produce color prints. A dis-
play of motion picture film strips explaining their Technirama process
of cinematography was donated by Technicolor Corporation.

Several significant specimens were received in the division of manu-
factures and heavy industries. In the section of petroleum, Universal
Oil Products Company and Esso Standard Oil Company, in associa-
tion with the M. W. Kellogg Company, prepared models and flow
charts illustrative of phases in the development of petroleum refining.
William C. Cleveland, consultant in the section of general manufactur-
ing, has been successful in locating more than 100 machines typical of
the development of the metal working trades. These will provide an
excellent basis for a treatment of the history of fasteners of all kinds.
A number of important pieces of equipment have been transferred by
nuclear physics laboratories at Argonne, Chicago, and Washington,

Civil History

Received as a gift from President John F. Kennedy was a magnifi-
cent volume, the Atlas Nouveau, compiled by Nicolas Sanson and pub-
lished in 1692. This richly illustrated atlas, intended for the in-
struction of the Dauphin of France, is bound in a contemporary red
leather and gilt binding.

Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower donated a Portuguese
standing lamp in silver, a carved teakwood elephant and rider pre-
sented to him by His Majesty Bhumibol Adulyadej of Thailand, and
an elaborately carved scene from the Mahabharata in ivory and san-

hower also gave the twin microphones over which his voice was fre-
quently carried during his 50,000-mile campaign of 1952.

Mrs. Dwight D. Eisenhower presented a pink embroidered or-
gandy dress given her by Mrs. Carlos P. Garcia, wife of the President
of the Philippines.

Ralph E. Becker continued his donations of political campaign
paraphernalia of the past. Significant among the gifts is a preserve
crock inscribed “25,000 Majority General Jackson”—a protest against
the fact that although General Jackson rolled up a majority of greater
than 25,000 popular votes over his nearest rival, John Quincy Adams,
in the election of 1824, he lost the election. Since no candidate had a
majority of the total vote, the House of Representatives chose Mr.
Adams from the three candidates having the highest number of elec-
toral votes.

The division of philately and postal history acquired a specialized
collection of early Peru, consisting of more than 13,000 stamps and
covers in 16 albums, donated by Bernard Peyton. The material
portrays the postal history of Peru from the period of Royal Spanish
Service to the end of the 19th century. Essays, proofs, and color
trials augment the approved stamps, and each issue is thoroughly
explored by means of cancellations. One album presents the Pacific

Steam Navigation Company’s stamps and essays, including use on
covers. ‘The provisional stamps made necessary by the occupation
of Chilean forces in 1879-82 are of great historical value. George L.
Lee presented a collection of Egyptian stamps from the Royal In-
perforate Printings prepared for Kings Fuad and Farouk. This un-
usual material was sold by the present Egyptian Government in 1954.
Mr. Lee also gave a used copy of the 5-cent Canadian St. Lawrence
Seaway stamp with inverted center. This modern printing error,
of which only shghtly more than 100 are known, including 11 used
copies, was discovered in 1959 not long after date of issuance. Wide-
spread interest and limited supply have caused a sharp appreciation
for this variety.

The division of numismatics received from Cornelius Van Schaak
Roosevelt, grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt, a high-relief
experimental 20-dollar gold piece dated 1907, originally owned by
President Roosevelt. This rare first striking of a piece designed by
the American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, at the President’s
request, marks a unique venture in modern monetary history, a ven-
ture in which a President of the United States and a famous sculptor
worked together to produce a new coin design of high artistic merit.
Mr. Willis du Pont donated a very significant additional group of
Russian coins and medals of the latter part of the 18th century.

ACCESSIONS ays)

Mrs. Louise Merrick Schermerhorn presented a group of rare gold
certificates including a group of three notes dated 1864, 1866, and 1877,
typifying the earliest issued of United States gold certificates. To
the section of medallic art were added, as a gift from Norman Stack,
two rare Washington medals, one made in 1790 by Manly and the
other in 1805 by Eccleston. The Medallic Art Company of New York
donated an interesting group of models and dies used for the striking
of the John F. Kennedy inaugural medal, as well as a process set of
medals showing the various steps in the striking and finishing of the
medal.

Armed Forces History

The division of military history received a unique Revolutionary
War militia color carried at the Battles of Trenton and Germantown,
presented by Mr. Francis W. Headman in memory of his son, Francis
W. Headman, Jr. Lieut. Col. Calvin P. Titus donated a rare Medal
of Honor awarded to him for gallantry in the siege of Pekin, in 1900.
Field work at Sackets Harbor, N.Y., Fort Adams, Miss., and on under-
water sites in Bermuda yielded significant historical materials for the
collections.

The division of naval history received an outstanding collection of
German and Japanese ordnance and electronic equipment of World
War II, Japanese uniforms, and uniform items of Fleet Admiral
Nimitz and Vice Admiral Lockwood. Two objects associated with
Pearl Harbor were received. A unique monogrammed dish for the
Confederate Navy was added to the Civil War collections.

President John F. Kennedy donated an ancient Greek amphora
recovered from the Mediterranean.

Anthropology

The work of cleaning, repairing, and preserving the basketry in the
ethnological collection was continued by chief exhibits specialist
A. Joseph Andrews in the anthropological laboratory. Ma. Andrews
also made casts of a variety of anthropological specimens and of a few
human faces from life, instructed visitors in the special techniques of
a museum laboratory, and provided information to correspondents
on the care of wooden and ivory objects. He continued the restoration
and preservation of various types of specimens, not only from the
collections of the department, but also from those of the National
Collection of Fine Arts and of the division of cultural history.
Scientific illustrator George R. Lewis made 95 drawings, mainly of
archeological objects, 35 maps and charts, and he lettered about 16
illustrations.

By contract Henry Courtais remounted, cleaned, and restored 100
more paintings of American Indians by George Catlin. At the close
of the year Mr. Courtais was starting work on an additional 100
paintings. New frames are being made in the museum’s carpentry

shop for all of the paintings thus far restored. Judging by the fre-
quent inquiries about, and requests for photographs of, the Catlin
paintings, there is great public interest in the work of this famous
painter of Indians. The second of two large Northwest Coast dugout
canoes which had badly deteriorated in the course of years of exposure
has been repaired by a boatwright and is soon to be returned to the
west court of the Natural History building.

The evacuation of two ethnology exhibit hails under the moderniza-
tion program made it convenient to check the identification and
condition of many specimens, following which the study collections in-
volved were regrouped and consolidated for improved storage and
accessibility by assistant curator Robert A. Elder, Jr., and museum
aide Clarence A. Bender.

In the new archeological exhibit halls museum aides George Metcalf
and Robert Jenkins further reorganized the study collections stored
behind the display areas and brought more nearly up-to-date the loca-
tion records pertaining thereto. Associate curator Gus Van Beek,
assisted by museum aide Robert Jenkins, virtually completed the
systematic arrangement of the study collections of Old World arche-
ology, so that specimens from Egypt, Mesopotamia, Iran, Palestine,
Cyprus, Greece, and Italy are now grouped by culture area and sep-
arated by type within the cultural grouping in a manner that permits
ready reference by the staff and visiting scientists. Mrs Evelyn
Harvey Henning, summer intern, consolidated and fully listed on
cards the division’s extensive collection of reprints and pamphlets,
thus greatly increasing their usefulness.

In the division of physical anthropology, processing of the recently
accessioned River Basin Surveys collections was completed by
anthropological aide Lucile Hoyme and summer intern Charles G.
Strickler.

Zoology

The program of new construction and remodeling involving the
Natural History building has made it necessary to move parts of the
collection of mammals into temporary quarters and to accelerate some
of the long-range projects concerned with the arrangement of that
collection.

The merging of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service collection into
the national collection of mammals was accelerated. With the help
of museum aide Reginald Williams, preliminary arrangement of the
rodents was almost completed during the year. Miss Viola S. Schantz,
of the Fish and Wildlife Service, supervised the index-carding of most
of the squirrels. Satisfactory progress was also made on rearrange-
ment of alcoholic specimens and segregated types. <A large backlog
of unlabeled and unnumbered skulls and skeletons was eliminated by

56 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

summer intern John Phillip Angle. During the remainder of the
year, this work and the routine cataloging of incoming specimens were
kept current by museum aide Robert D. Jackson. The osteological
laboratory under Joseph D. Biggs cleaned 3,025 skulls and skeletons
of mammals, as well as miscellaneous skeletal materials for other
divisions.

All accessions received in the division of birds have been fumigated,
identified, and catalogued, and, except for those withheld for study,
all have been incorporated into the main collection. Extensive re-
working of the North American birds has been done by Dr. J. W.
Aldrich and T. D. Burleigh, of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The taxidermy staff skinned and made up 51 birds, mounted 33, and
cleaned and repaired 27 other specimens.

The inventory of the lizards in the division of reptiles and am-
phibians was completed by museum aide Dorsey Williams.

The processed and catalogued collection of fishes is in an excellent
state of preservation and arranged in an orderly manner that makes
them readily accessible.

In the division of insects, the transfer and arrangement of the
Monrés collection of Chrysomelidae has been completed by Mrs. Doris
1. Blake, and the transfer of the Tippman Cerambycidae collection
has also been completed; both of those collections are now housed in
standard U.S. National Museum drawers and cases. Dr. Oliver 8S.
Flint, Jr., has identified and arranged the large mass of Trichoptera
(caddisflies) that had accumulated over the past 75 years, and it is
now readily available for study.

Dr. Ralph E. Crabill, Jr., has continued to examine carefully old
material in the myriapod collection, with the result that many addi-
tional types were discovered, properly labeled, and recorded. Sig-
nificant strides have been made in systematically arranging and
storing the slide collection of myriapods.

William D. Field has reclassified and rearranged the Morphidae,
bringing together the old collections and the specimens acquired from
the Ernest Shoemaker collection. Those, together with the Megathy-
midae also reclassified during the year, are now housed in standard
drawers. In addition 10 Schmitt boxes and 30 drawers of miscel-
laneous Lepidoptera were identified and incorporated in the regular
series. Summer intern Donald Duckworth completely rearranged the
microlepidopteran family Stenomidae to bring it into line with recent
revisions and advances in that group, and the large slide collection of
genitaha of that family has been carefully arranged in Technicon slide
cabinets. The extensive Tippman collection of Cerambycidae has
been labeled and transferred to standard cases, and the entire
collection of Collembola has been checked and reconditioned.

CARE OF COLLECTIONS 57

Rearrangement of the more or less inactive collections of marine
invertebrates was continued by Dr. Frederick M. Bayer; about half
the hydroid collection has now been rearranged, cleaned, and checked
for preservative. Museum aide Nathaniel Livingston has checked
the preservative and cleaned the jars in about one-sixth of the echino-
derm collection, one-fourth of the polychaete collection, two thirds of
the crayfish collection, and the entire collection of primary types other
than crustaceans. He has also fumigated all of the quarter-unit dry
specimen cases in the attic to forestall damage by dermestid beetles.

The physical condition of the study collections of mollusks is good,
although relatively unchanged from the previous year. Little prog-
ress has been made in its reorganization, except for the contribution
made by Dr. Joseph Rosewater in adding many drawers of catalogued
specimens to the Indo-Pacific marine collection. The condition of the
shde and alcoholic collections of helminths at Beltsville continues to
be good under the care of members of the staff of the animal disease
and parasite branch, who have charge of that collection.

Botany

With the establishment of the division of woods, the wood collection
formerly under the division of agriculture and wood products was
transferred intact to the new unit. Since the collection is arranged in
a numerical sequence, rather than taxonomically, it does not require
periodic changes to allow for new material. In anticipation of expan-
sion into other fields of plant morphology, collections of microscope
slides of pollen and of sections of wood, both arranged taxonomically,
were started this year. The slides are filed vertically in 3- x 5-inch
aluminum holders, a method that allows easy interpolation of new
slides.

Wood samples and microscope slides require little care. Wood
samples recently received from the field may be infested with wood-
destroying insects, but treatment with ethylene dichloride-carbon
tetrachloride effectively destroys them. Samples which may be in the
“oreen” condition when received are dried in an unheated conditioning
room for several months before being placed in the collections. Such
treatment allows the woods to dry and minimizes subsequent checking
and sphtting.

In the division of ferns, summer intern David Lellinger organized
the more than 8,000 photographs of type specimens of ferns, taken in
Europe by curator Conrad Morton, so that they can be readily con-
sulted. For the first time numbers were assigned to the fern genera,
following the numbering and system of Carl Christensen, Index

Filicum, which is the principal standard arrangement of ferns. This
has made possible the preparation of indices which are now attached
to the ends of the cases, to facilitate the finding of the genera.

The W. H. Long fungus collection, which had been kept separate,
was interpolated into the general collections by honorary research
associates C. R. Benjamin and John A. Stevenson, as were the fung1
from the Goucher College herbarium.

The major activities in caring for the permanent collections and the
processing of new material are summarized in the following table:

Geology

Some progress was made by the division of mineralogy and petrol-
ogy, with the help of museum aides Masaw Williams and Franklin
Stephens, in reorganizing the rock sets transferred to the Museum
by the U.S. Geological Survey, and other locality sets. The economic
geology and physical geology materials formerly on exhibit in halls
6 and 19 have been consolidated and stored in hall 6, pending instal-
lation of anew geology exhibit in hall 20.

A. beginning has been made on the considerable changes in the
collections of the division of invertebrate paleontology and paleo-
botany that must be accomplished before the move to the new wing
is made. Museum aide Lorenzo Ford has been organizing both un-
studied and type collections under direction of associate curator
Richard S. Boardman. The types of the Paleozoic Bryozoa, corals,
and the trilobites have been put in precise alphabetical order. Mr.
Ford has also arranged and labeled the Pennsylvanian and Permian
parts of the large Renfro collection acquired this year.

Associate curator Richard Cifelli, with the help of museum aide
James P. Ferrigno, has made considerable progress on the continuing
task of cataloging, labeling, remounting, and distributing the backlog
of specimens into the collections. Dr, Cifelli has also made a small
beginning in the establishment of a set of thin sections of Foraminif-
era. In recent years the study of internal structures observed from
thin sections has become very important in the taxonomy of this
group. The Museum collection of types is probably the world’s
largest, and, judging from the present trend in the taxonomy of
Foraminifera, requests for thin sections of types will soon be a major
problem.

Associate curator Porter M. Kier, in charge of the Springer col-
lection of Echinodermata, has cleaned, sorted, and put away nearly
1,000 echinoids collected by him, or received through purchases and
gifts.

Associate curator Erle G. Kauffman developed and initiated a major
program for the reorganization of the Museum molluscan collection
during the year. Under this program, all type specimens will be
placed together in a single collection for each class. Nontype biologic
sets will be largely reorganized in biologic rather than alphabetical
order, using the Treatise of Invertebrate Paleontology as the basis
for classification. Mesozoic mollusks in the Museum collection will
be integrated with those of the U.S. Geological Survey to form a
master biologic set.

Museum aide Henry B. Roberts reorganized the collection of fossil
decapod crustaceans, arranging this collection in accordance with the
classification employed by Bales in the new edition of “Das Tierreich.”

60 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

The exhibition modernization program in the division of vertebrate
paleontology has occupied nearly all of the time of the laboratory
personnel in the preparation, mounting, and installation of vertebrate
materials, so that very little has been accomplished in the care of the
study collection except for the preparation of certain fossil whale
materials that came in during the year. Associate curator David H.
Dunkle utilized the services of museum aide John D. Gassaway in |
rearranging part of the fossil fish collection, and curator C. Lewis
Gazin, in the course of research on the Knight faunas, has nearly
completed cataloging the lower Kocene mammalian collections, the
results of five seasons’ field work.

Science and Technology

All specimens received this year in the division of electricity have
been accessioned, catalogued, cleaned, and placed in storage or on
exhibit. Electronics technician Roy La Roche cleaned the specimens
and checked their placement on the catalog cards. Additional storage
space set up in the wood court was of considerable assistance because
of the growing size of the collections.

Two of the finest models in the division of mechanical and civil
engineering were thoroughly restored this year, an exquisitely detailed
beam steam engine of about 1830, built by Bancks of London, and
a large waterworks pumping engine, built at the Corliss works in
1870. Both models will be exhibited in the new Museum.

Through machinist William Henson, adequate equipment for a
machine shop has been obtained through surplus channels from the
Washington Naval Weapons Plant, and under his hands the syste-
matic restoration of machine tools and other objects for the hall of
tools is being carried out at an accelerated pace.

In the division of medical sciences, museum aide Everett A. Jackson
has been engaged in a cleaning and restoring program, beginning with
objects scheduled for exhibition in the new museum. Acquisition of
a small amount of new storage space has made possible a more logical
and orderly rearrangement of the reference collection. The catalog
cards in the section of medical and dental history, heretofore filed
numerically, were refiled by subject groupings, and a similar project
is progressing in the section of pharmacy and health. A new subject-
group index to the photograph collection is also being prepared by
museum aide George H. Ford, who continues to devote a major part
of his time to the maintenance of operating exhibits in the hall of
health.

In the division of transportation, restoration of the Locomobile
steam automobile is nearly completed, and restoration of the cycle
collection is proceeding fairly rapidly.

CARE OF COLLECTIONS 61

This teaching model of a beam steam engine, made about 1830 by
Bancks of London and now on loan from the Massachusetts Chari-
table Mechanics Association, was restored for eventual exhibition
in the new Museum.

The rail collection was inventoried and many unidentified sections
were catalogued. Detailed sketches were made of each rail section
and placed on the catalog cards for future reference. The cards were
refiled according to style and material.

Arts and Manufactures

The division of agriculture and forest products has continued its
program of renovation of the farm machines in storage at Silver Hill.
Most of this is being done at the model shop, where laborer John W.

62 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

Smith has cleaned, repainted, and restored several machines, in-
cluding a horse-drawn drill and a disc harrow. Through the efforts of
museum aide John Wingo, the farm machinery hall ranked as one
of the best maintained. Consolidation of storage has continued in
the division of ceramics and glass, with sixteen additional units being
added to the Arts and Industries building storage section. Inventory
and rearrangement of storage items has been well advanced. Cata-
loging and accessioning of new objects and recataloging and checking
identification of objects received by transfer from other divisions is
progressing satisfactorily.

In the division of graphic arts museum aide James W. Norwood
matted and made minor repairs to approximately 820 prints. Some
315 patent models of presses and allied inventions dealing with print-
ing, typefounding, and typecasting were cleaned and inventoried by
museum aide James Norwood, who also gathered information for
use In preparing divisional record cards for these unlisted specimens.
Associate curator Kugene Ostroff, in cooperation with consultant Dr.
Rudolf Kingslake, Director of Optical Design of Eastman Kodak
Company, completed identification of the photographic lens collec-
tion. Wherever necessary the lenses were restored.

The division of manufactures and heavy industries continued its
program of review of existing collections and has completed re-
organization of storage. Museum aides John Carter and Linwood
Lucas have cleaned and renovated a number of specimens and models
and handled the large number of items received at the Smithsonian
storage facility. In the division of textiles hundreds of textile patent
models previously stored on open shelving were removed, checked,
cleaned, and relocated in new metal lockers by museum aide Everett
Parker. Reorganization of the fabric and lace storage continued.
Lace edgings were rolled on plastic film for easy handling. The work
of re-storing by type and style in preparation for improved study
storage in the new building is slow, but important.

Civil History

A major project in the division of cultural history was the restora-
tion of a rare early American wooden statue of William Pitt, carved
in 1801 by Joseph Wilson for “Lord” Timothy Dexter. The figure
had been ravaged by carpenter ants and dry rot. Most of one arm
had disintegrated, while concrete poured into the hollow center of the
torso had caused the remaining solid wood to split. Considerable
work was involved in removing the concrete and rotten wood, con-
structing the interior surface to form a solid mass, and substituting
new wood to rebuild the statue. The task became one of artistic
skill disciplined by painstaking observation of existing evidence as

missing surface areas were sculptured in the new wood. Careful
study of the paint colors was made, using both documentary references
and the archeological evidence of paint layers. A white undercoat
was applied, followed by exact copies of the earlier applied colors,
leaving inconspicuous squares of original paint as evidence. The
result is a bizarre and gaudy figure with much gold trim, quite in
keeping with the attention-seeking flair of the self-titled “Lord”
Timothy, as well as an outstanding restoration of an American master-
piece of folk carving.

In the division of numismatics, all the United States bronze and
silver coins on exhibit were mounted in tightly closed boxes, made
of clear cellulose triacetate K IV, that provide an airtight enclosure
and should prevent noticeable corrosion or tarnishing. ‘The boxes
are attached to the display panel with a recently developed fastener
consisting of two strips of woven nylon tape, one covered with a
row of stiff nylon hooks and the other with tiny, soft nylon loops.
When the strips are pressed together the hooks and loops engage to
create a secure and easily removable fastener.

Most of the foreign silver coins and medals on display could not be
suitably enclosed in such boxes because of extreme variations in diam-
eter and thickness. To prevent tarnishing these specimens were given
i. protective coating, which proved satisfactory.

The program of regrouping stamps in new stockbooks in the divi-
sion of philately and postal history is being continued. Specialty
and reference collections have been maintained intact, and the albums
stored with the stockbooks according to country for easy identification.
The philatelic and historic collection of covers has been started with
several transfers of material from The Library of Congress. More
than 4,500 covers have been added to the collection, many of which
are to be used in the new “History of the Posts” exhibit.

Armed Forces History

Substantial progress was made in the restoraticn of objects in the
collections. The program of repairing and cleaning firearms and
other military equipment progressed satisfactorily. Renovation of
the ship and half model collections continued at an accelerated rate.

Under the direction of Dr. Philip K. Lundeberg, 25 half models
were restored, including a plank-on-frame model of the frigate Con-
stitution, a frame model of the 74-gun ship OAzo, a squirrel cage model
of the 120-gun ship Pennsylvania, a lift model of the sloop-of-war
ITartford, and a decorative model of the monitor AZonadnock.

which penetrates and fills the cells of the wet wood, and supports them
when the wood dries cut. In the higher molecular weights this sub-
stance 1s a white solid of waxlike consistency.

Wood recovered from salt water should, upon drying out, retain
its original shape if treated by the following routine:

1. The wet specimen from sea water is soaked in a bath of fresh water,
renewed every four hours.

2. When the fresh water no longer shows the presence of chlorides
through the silver nitrate test, the wood is placed in a solution of one part
polyethylene glycol (molecular weight 1,500) to one part hot distilled water.

3. The specimen is left in the solution until it sinks, indicating complete

saturation.

Anthropology

Late in 1960, preparatory to retirement, former head curator Frank
M. Setzler turned cver to C. Malcolm Watkins, curator of cultural
history, the draft of his report on archeological excavations carried
out in 1956 at the site of the colonial town of Marlborough, near the
point bearing that name on Potomac Neck, in Stafford County, Va.
Mr. Watkins will integrate the account with his own studies carried
out at this interesting colonial site and with others on the historical
documents relating thereto to produce a unified report for publication.

After taking over the head curatorship, Dr. T. Dale Stewart com-
pleted a manuscript on Neanderthal cervical vertebrae, with special
attention to the Shanidar Neanderthals from Iraq. As the work

progressed he found it necessary to borrow from the Peabody Museum
of Harvard University the original cervical vertebrae of the Skhul V
Neanderthal from Mount Carmel in Palestine. The Skhul-Shanidar
cervical spines are the most complete thus far recovered from ancient
times. In general the neck vertebrae of the Neanderthals are not as
different from those of modern man as earlier studies had indicated.

Archeology.—Dr. Waldo R. Wedel, curator of archeology, made
some headway in the preparation of field reports on the 1952 investiga-
tions by the Smithsonian Institution and Princeton University at the
Horner site near Cody, Wyo., and of the report on field work for the
River Basin Surveys in 1951, and again in 1955-57, in Stanley County,
S. Dak. In addition, he completed for publication in a dedicatory
pamphlet projected by the Museum of the Great Plains, Lawton,
Okla., a paper on some archeological problems in the Great Plains,
and began work on a paper dealing with the High Plains and their
utilization by the Indian, essentially an ecological study of native
man and environment in the heart of what was once known as the
Great American Desert. He also read proof on his book, “Prehistoric
Man on the Great Plains,” being published by the University of
Oklahoma Press.

Early in the year, as a result of the discovery near Littleton, Colo.,
of a late Pleistocene bone bed with possible human associations,

68 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

Dr. Wedel, in conjunction with Dr. C. Lewis Gazin, curator of verte-
brate paleontology, developed plans to explore the site. Field work
was initiated in June, with museum aide George Metcalf conducting
the field operations.

During the summer of 1960 associate curator Clifford Evans and
his wife, honorary research associate Betty J. Meggers, attended the
34th International Congress of Americanists in Vienna, Austria, and
the 6th International Congress of Anthropological and Ethnological
Sciences in Paris, France, reporting on the results of their recent re-
search. Before and after the congresses, they studied South Ameri-
ean archeological collections in museums in Norway, Sweden, Den-
mark, Austria, Switzerland, and France. While in France Drs. Evans
and Meggers also visited the following sites of the Paleolithic period:
Lascaux, Laugerie Haute, Laugerie Basse, Combarelles, Abri de Cap
Blane, Les Eyzies, Abee Pichaud, and Le Moustier.

The obsidian dating project, under Dr. Evans’ supervision, got un-
der way in September when Dr. Donavan Clark arrived from Stan-
ford University to assume the position of research assistant in the
division of archeology. Since then Dr. Clark has examined and
measured the hydration layers in over 600 specimens from various
parts of the world.

Drs. Evans and Meggers continued their study of the cultural
sequences of Coastal Ecuador in conjunction with Emilio Estrada,
Director of the Museo Arqueolégico “Victor Emilio Estrada,” of
Guayaquil, Ecuador, who was in Washington during parts of March
and April.

Associate curator Gus W. Van Beek developed plans for a program
of research in South Arabian culture history, involving an expedition
to depart for Arabia in the fall of 1961. Accordingly much time dur-
ing the spring was spent in organizing the expedition, selecting equip-
ment, and making necessary arrangements with the various officials of
the area in which the investigations will take place.

Dr. Van Beek continued work on a monograph entitled “Hajar Bin
Humeid,” which will be the final report on the excavation of the South
Arabian site of that name and will contain the first pottery chronology
of the area. He also collaborated in the preparation of a report on a
squeeze of a South Arabian stamp seal discovered in the collections of
the Vienna Academy by Dr. Albert Jamme, research professor, Cath-
olic University of America. The stamp seal from which the squeeze

was made is virtually identical to a stamp found in Palestine in 1957
and jointly published by Drs. Van Beek and Jamme.

Museum aide George Metcalf made considerable progress on the
analysis of data in connection with the preparation of a monograph on
the Davis Creek site in central Nebraska.

Honorary research associate Neil M. Judd continued his research on
the archeological materials from Chaco Canyon, N. Mex., which he
collected years ago for the National Geographic Society.

Physical anthropology.—From the first of June until the latter
part of August, curator T. Dale Stewart participated in a jointly
sponsored Columbia University-Smithsonian Institution expedition
to Iraq. Between June 3, the date of his arrival in Baghdad, and July
16, when he departed for Shanidar in northern Iraq, Dr. Stewart spent
most of his time in the Iraq Museum restoring and studying the skull
and associated vertebrae of Shanidar II, the Neanderthal found in
1957 about 23 feet below the present floor of the cave at Shanidar
and thus suggesting an age of around 60,000 years. From July 18
to August 15 he aided in the recovery and removal of three new
Neanderthal skeletons from the cave. Study of the new finds could
not be undertaken this year and will require a return visit to the
country. However, Dr. Stewart was able before leaving Baghdad to
prepare a description of the Shanidar II skull for publication in
Sumer.

Before leaving for Iraq Dr. Stewart amplified a paper he had read
at the annual meeting of the American Association of Physical
Anthropologists in 1959. This had to do with the unusual morphology
of the mastoid region in the Shanidar I Neanderthal and the possibility
of deducing therefrom that the Swanscombe skull fragments from
England, attributed to the last interglacial period, had the same
structures and therefore likely the same primitive appearance of the
face.

The research of associate curator Marshall T. Newman included the
preparation of papers on such topics as evolutionary changes in body
size and head form in American Indians, the physiology of Middle
American Indians, the biological adaptation of man to his environ-
ment, generalizations on phenotypic and genotypic differences among
American Indians, and ecology and nutritional stress in man. These
papers were presented at various symposia and seminars. Dr. New-
man also completed two chapters of his Vicos monograph, which in-
volved the recasting of the metric data and the analyzing of eight
blood group systems. Not only did this relate to the Quechua Indians
of Vicos but to other Indians for which suitable data are available.
At the end of the year he was preparing to return to Peru for his final
field study at Vicos.

Anthropological aide Lucile E. Hoyme visited the laboratories of
the Eastman Kodak Company in Rochester, N.Y., in November.
While there she consulted with the staff, and with W. S. Cornwell
in particular, on various radiographic problems that arise in the
course of her work in the division and received intensive instruction
in hew radiographic techniques.

Ethnology.—Curator Saul H. Riesenberg was occupied through-
out the year with planning for the new ethnological halls. Also, he
served as convener of the symposium on ethnohistory of the 10th
Pacific Science Congress, scheduled to meet in Honolulu in August—
September 1961. In this capacity he arranged for the participation of
yarlous persons from several nations and for the editing and publish-
ing in a scientific journal of all papers to be presented.

Associate curator Gordon D. Gibson spent most of the year in
ethnological field work and in collecting among the Herero of south-
west Africa and Bechuanaland. He was on his way home via Europe
at the close of the year.

Associate curator Eugene I. Knez, like Dr. Riesenberg, was mainly
occupied this year with exhibit problems. However, he was able to
complete for publication a preliminary paper on mutual aid groups of

UZ U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

Korea. Also he continued his research pertaining to change in Korean
village technology.

Zoology

After 52 years of service on the Museum staff, Dr. Herbert Fried-
mann retired as head curator May 31, 1961, to become director of the
Los Angeles County Museum. His bulletin on the parasitic weaver-
birds was published, and the latest of this series of monographs,
“Host Relations of the Parasitic Cowbirds,” was accepted for pub-
lication by the National Museum.

Mammals.—Curator David H. Johnson continued to study the
mammals of the southeastern Asiatic and Pacific Ocean areas, and

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 73

in addition he began a survey of the existing specimens and records
of mammals collected by the United States Exploring Expedition
of 1838-1842. Brief visits to Philadelphia in September and to
Boston, New York, and Philadelphia in March were devoted to these
projects.

Associate curator Henry W. Setzer continued to identify and report
on the mammals collected in Egypt and adjacent countries by U.S.
Naval Medical Research Unit No. 3. A paper describing two new
Egyptian mammals was published. From early March until mid-May,
Dr. Setzer participated in the Smithsonian-Collins Expedition to
Libya, which was organized and led by Robert L. Pomeroy and Alan
C. Collins. The party traveled overland from Benghazi by way of
Cufra Oasis to Faya in northern Tchad, investigated the little-known
Tibesti Mountains on the Libyan-Tchad frontier, and returned to the
Mediterranean coast by way of Sebha Oasis. In all, the party traveled
about 5,000 miles, and Dr. Setzer obtained a valuable collection of
mammals. Enroute to join the expedition, he spent three days in early
March at the British Museum (Natural History) in London, compar-
ing type specimens of various European and African mammals.

Associate curator Charles O. Handley, Jr., continued his taxonomic
studies of mammals from the Neotropical region and from the south-
eastern United States. He also completed a manuscript on the ma-
rine mammals of the Middle Atlantic coast of the United States.

Birds.—Curator Herbert G. Deignan read proof of his bulletin on
the type specimens of birds in the National Museum, published this
year, and of his checklist of the birds of Thailand.

Bernard R. Feinstein, museum aide, spent the year in South Viet-
nam collecting with an expedition jointly conducted by the Bernice
P. Bishop Museum of Honolulu and the U.S. Army Medical Research
and Development Command.

Dr. Alexander Wetmore, honorary research associate and former
Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, resumed his field studies
in Panama from January to April and continued the study of his
Panamanian and Colombian collections.

Reptiles and amphibians.—Curator Doris M. Cochran and Dr.
C. J. Goin, of the University of Florida, continued their studies on
Colombian frogs and published the description of a new genus and
species in connection with those studies. Her Museum bulletin
“Type Specimens of Reptiles and Amphibians in the U.S. National
Museum,” was published.

Fishes—Curator Leonard P. Schultz and Dr. Carl L. Hubbs, of
the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, completed a study of the
nomenclature of the nominal genus Oregonichthys and the blennioid
fish, Pholis schultz. With Dorothea B. Schultz and Randy Mardres,

609091—61——6

74 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

the curator supervised the preparation of additional microscope slide
sections of fossil shark teeth as a preliminary to the proposed study
of fossil shark teeth of Chesapeake Bay as compared with the teeth
of living sharks. With Dr. Lachner, he continued the preparation of
the third and final volume of “Fishes of the Marshall and Marianas
Islands.”

Dr. Schultz has also directed several continuing programs dealing
with sharks: Dr. Carter R. Gilbert has nearly completed a revision
of the hammerhead sharks, genus Sphyrna; Mrs. Marilyn Malin has
assisted in the preparation of a documented file of shark attacks
throughout the world, and one paper, in collaboration with Dr. Perry
W. Gilbert and Stewart Springer, on attacks during 1959 was com-
pleted during the fiscal year; Dr. Victor G. Springer is revising the
sharks related to the genus Scoliodon; and Dr. J. A. F. Garrick has
started a revision of the carcharhinid sharks of the Indo-Pacific
region.

Associate curator Ernest A. Lachner, with Dr. Earl E. Deubler,
Jr., completed a nomenclatural study of the rosyside dace of eastern
North America. Dr. Lachner has also completed the manuscript on
the family Echeneidae and has nearly finished the manuscripts on
the families Gobiidae, Eleotridae, and Taenioididae for the final
volume of the “Fishes of the Marshall and Marianas Islands,” re-
ferred to above. He has continued his study of the diskfishes, order
Kcheneiformes, and his revisions of the cardinal fishes, family Apo-
gonidae, and of the goatfishes, family Mullidae.

Associate curator William R. Taylor has completed the manuscript
on the fishes of the Arnhem Land Expedition of 1948 and has sub-
mitted it for publication in Australia. He has also essentially com-
pleted his revision of the North American catfishes of the genus
Noturus.

Insects.—Curator J. F. Gates Clarke delivered an invitational paper
on host specificity in certain moths at the XI International Congress
of Entomology held in Vienna in August. Several visits to the
Vienna Museum afforded the opportunity to examine and study
numerous types of Neotropical Microlepidoptera in connection with
researches being conducted on that fauna. While in Europe, Dr.
Clarke also took advantage of the opportunity to study for a month
at the British Museum (Natural History), where many types of the
same group were examined. His continuing work on the Meyrich
types of Microlepidoptera has progressed well during the year; proof
has been read on volume four, and more than 200 plates have been
completed for volume five. Dr. Clarke’s research on the Neotropical]
Microlepidoptera has also received a great deal of attention, and one
small paper on this fauna was completed.

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 15

Associate curator Oscar L. Cartwright has completed his extensive
study of the genus Onthophagus (Scarabaeidae) and is continuing his
research on the genus Ataenius in the same family. Species of both
genera are important as suspected intermediate hosts of parasites of
domestic and other animals.

Associate curator Ralph E. Crabill, Jr., completed his work in
European museums in August 1960, having begun this study trip im
March. From February 13 to March 13, he examined typical and
ordinary specimens of Chilopoda at the Museum of Comparative
Zoology in connection with his study of this group of animals, con-
cerning which several significant papers have been published. On
May 31, 1961, Dr. Crabill left again for study in London, Hamburg,
and Frankfurt.

Associate curator William D. Field is continuing his studies on the
Lycaenidae and is also working on the genus Ceramidia, a group of
moths destructive to bananas. A paper in preparation on this genus
is important because it proposes to provide a ready means of identify-
ing these banana pests. Following a trip to Atlanta, Ga., in June
in connection with the acquisition of a collection, Mr. Field undertook
a visit to the mountainous regions of North and South Carolina to
conduct field work on Rhopalocera.

Associate curator Oliver S. Flint, Jr., is engaged in research on the
immature stages of the Trichoptera (caddis flies), and he is acquir-
ing much needed material to fill the many gaps in our collection. In
addition to week-end field trips to procure material, Dr. Flint, in May
1961, visited Cornell University, obtaining more than 200 specimens
of Neotropical species for study, and from June 3 to 10, conducted field
investigations in the vicinity of Highlands, N.C., an area in which are
many relic forms and one from which we have nothing of this group
in the national collection.

Marine Invertebrates.—Curator Fenner A. Chace, Jr., completed
his joint manuscript with Harry Pederson and the late Conrad Lim-
baugh on the fish-cleaning habits and life color patterns of six species
of caridean and stenopodidean shrimps.

Associate curator Frederick M. Bayer has completed the revision
and correction of the second page proof of his handbook of shallow-
water West Indian octocorals now in press in the Netherlands.

Associate curator Thomas E. Bowman, in collaboration with Z.
Kabata, of the Marine Laboratory at Aberdeen, Scotland, completed
a manuscript reassigning the lernaeopodoid copepod Z'racheliastes
grandis Wilson to the genus Vanbenedenia, as asynonym of V. hroyeri
Malmgren, based upon a thorough redescription of Wilson’s holotype
specimen. He has brought to virtual completion the description of a
new species of the copepod genus 77she, including an account of its

76 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

developmental stages reared in the divisional laboratory. Finally, he
has made some progress upon his study of the calanoid copepods col-
lected off the southeastern coast of the United States by the M/V
Theodore N. Gill.

Associate curator Charles E. Cutress, Jr., began a report on the sea
anemones of Port Phillip Bay, Australia, and continued his study of
the sea anemones of the Chatham Islands Expedition of 1954.

Mrs. LaNelle W. Peterson, museum aide, in addition to her other
duties, has made steady progress in the preparation of a catalogue of
the octocorallian type specimens contained in the museum’s collec-
tions; this study has been of unexpected value by bringing to light
more than 90 lots of type material that had been improperly incor-
porated in the general study collections. She has also thoroughly
reorganized and completed the locality records included in a major
manuscript on Pacific tunicates in the national collections recently
prepared by Takasi Tokioka, of the Seto Marine Biological
Laboratory, Japan.

J. Percy Moore, honorary research associate, now in his 93rd year,
continues his research activities in spite of many obstacles. He writes
that “research on leeches has continued actively but with limitations
imposed by certain personal problems. Most attention was given to
large collections submitted by the U.S. National Museum and Tulane
University, supplemented by other small lots of leeches of our southern
Gulf states. While a large body of notes and drawings is on hand,
further studies will be made before a manuscript will be prepared.”
A few months ago, Dr. Moore’s laboratory was vandalized and the re-
sults of many years of study destroyed or severely damaged, a blow
that would have felled many a younger man. However, he advises us
that some progress has been made toward the restoration and identifica-
tion of whole mounts and serial sections that were intermixed, broken,
or otherwise damaged, although he expects that “it will take most of
my remaining life to restore them.” During the year he completed
an account of his personal recollections of Joseph Leidy, whom he knew
from boyhood days, to be published by the American Society of Zoolo-
gists in a volume on distinguished zoologists.

Mildred S. Wilson, honorary research associate, has completed in
collaboration with J.C. Tash a manuscript on the life cycles of calanoid
copepods in shallow lakes of the Cape Thompson region, Alaska, and
she has begun a manuscript on copepods of Nuwuk Peninsula, Point

Jarrow, Alaska. In addition, she has continued to make progress
on her monograph of the fresh-water calanoid copepods of North
America, a long range study.

Horton H. Hobbs, Jr., honorary research associate, has completed,

with H. Hf. Hobbs, IIT, a paper describing a new crayfish of the genus

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH AA

Cambarus from Georgia. In addition, he has undertaken (with P.
C. Holt and Margaret Walton) an intensive survey of the crayfishes
and their commensal associates in the region of Mountain Lake, Va.,
made further progress on a manuscript (with T. C. Barr) dealing with
troglobitic crayfishes of the genus Orconectes, continued work on a
paper describing the ostracods of the genus H’ntocythere from Mexico
and Cuba, and another (with A. Villalobos) on crayfishes from Cuba,
and nearly completed a manuscript on troglobitic ostracods of the
genus Entocythere (with C. W. Hart). He has also found time to
identify approximately 1,000 specimens for other persons and to make
a collecting trip into West Virginia, southern Ohio, and Kentucky,
during which he obtained about 500 additional specimens for his study
collection. He reports that his collection has increased by some 3,000
specimens through gifts.

Dr. L. B. Holthuis, curator of Crustacea at the Rijksmuseum van
Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, The Netherlands, during a temporary
appointment to Smithsonian rolls under the program of systematic
studies on Pacific marine animals, reached an advanced stage in his
monographic study of seyllarid and palinurid lobsters and completed
a manuscript describing the new species involved, before returning to
his permanent post.

Mrs. Beatrice L. Burch, general systematic zoologist on temporary
appointment under the Pacific program, has completed an inventory
of the unidentified Indo-Pacific marine invertebrates contained in our
collections, amounting to 23,000 lots containing over 200,000 specimens
and representing 64 major invertebrate groups.

As usual, a large share of the burden of marine invertebrate identi-
fication services was borne by collaborating specialists in other institu-
tions, in most cases for no more recognition than a word of thanks.
This year, 26 specialists have agreed to identify material of several in-
vertebrate groups which owing to limitation of staff and time could
not be handled within the division. The individuals listed below have
received 35 shipments containing 1,931 specimens:

Dr. M. Bacescu: mysidacean crusta- Dr. R. U. Gooding: copepod crustaceans.

Mollusks.—Curator Harald A. Rehder devoted most of his re-
search time to work on the Indo-Pacific marine molluscan fauna,
starting with a study of the family Tellinidae of the area. In addi-
tion, he completed a number of smaller papers, one on the Pleistocene
mollusks of Grand Cayman, and another on the status of the generic
name Nucella. In October, Dr. Rehder joined a party of scientists
who conducted a survey of Jaluit Atoll in the southern Marshall Is-
lands; he spent six days studying the malacclogical collections in the
Bernice P. Bishop Museum in Honolulu and ten days, from Octo-
ber 20 to 29, on Jaluit, collecting a representation of the marine mol-
luscan fauna and studying the ecology of the reefs.

In connection with the Museum’s program of study of Pacific
marine animals, Dr. Joseph Rosewater, under the direction of Dr.
Rehder, has completed a monograph of the family Pinnidae and has
initiated studies on the families Tridacnidae and Littorinidae.

Associate curator Joseph P. E. Morrison continued his studies of
the family Melampidae and of certain brackish water genera of the
Mactridae. He also presented, at the meetings of the American
Malacological Union, in Montreal, a paper on the bivalved gastropods
of the family Julidae.

Botany

Head curator Jason R. Swallen arranged for a reprinting, by the
Smithsonian Institution, of Standley’s “Trees and Shrubs of Mexico,”
a standard work which has been out of print for more than a quarter
century.

Phanerogams.—Cwator Lyman B. Smith prepared a paper on
plant migrations as a part of his studies of the phytogeography of
southern Brazil. He continued the study of his collections from
Santa Catarina along with further large collections from Padre Rau-
lino Reitz, director of the Herbario Barbosa Rodrigues. Dr. Smith
constructed keys for his monograph of the Bromeliaceae, covering
about two-thirds of the more than 1,800 species. He prepared a
treatment of the Bromeliaceae of the Guayana Highland, and, with
Dr. Bassett Maguire of the New York Botanical Garden, a similar
treatment of the Xyridaceae.

Associate curator E. C. Leonard continued the preparation of a
Flora of Hispaniola, correcting the locality data for the Dominican

Xepubhie collections in line with numerous recent changes in the de-
limitations of the provinces. He also completed an index to all the
grasses of Hispaniola. Mr. Leonard has resumed work on the Acan-
thaceae of Peru for the Chicago Natural History Museum, completing
the revision of the genus M/endoncia.

Associate curator Velva E. Rudd nearly completed her revision of
American Ormosia and expects to have it ready for publication scon.
She continued assembling data for a floristic treatment of the papilio-

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH Sl

nate legumes of Mexico. Dr. Rudd attended the “Primer Congreso
Mexicano de Botanica,” where she presented a paper on the Mexican
species of Ormosia. She also participated in the excursion of the
Congress, making a brief reconnaissance survey of the vegetation along
a coast to coast transect.

Associate curator Richard S. Cowan continued his monographic
studies of the genus Swartzia, completing a key to all species and
descriptions for nearly all. He completed and published his studies
of the Leguminosae collected in the Guayana Highland by Dr. Bassett
Maguire and others, and finished a short paper on miscellaneous
novelties in the Leguminosae.

Associate curator John J. Wurdack completed a detailed treatment
of the Melastomataceae of Santa Catarina, Brazil, including 13 genera
and 116 species. He continued his studies of the Melastomataceae of
the Guayana Highland with the aim of publishing a complete treat-
ment, and prepared descriptions of miscellaneous novelties in the
same family from other parts of tropical America.

Dr. A. C. Smith, Director of the Museum of Natural History, re-
sumed his work on southwestern Pacific plants by revising, in collabo-
ration with research assistant Benjamin C. Stone, the genus Genios-
toma (Loganiaceae) in that area. Progress was also made on the
families Araliaceae and Guttiferae, and Dr. Stone conducted
independent work on Pandanaceae, Rutaceae, and other groups.

Dr. José Cuatrecasas, research associate, continued his studies on
the flora of Colombia. He completed a monograph of the genus 7’heo-
broma (cacao) and continued the preparation of a revision of
Colombian Compositae consisting of approxiamtely 800 species.

Dr. Kittie F. Parker, honorary research associate, furthered her
studies of western and Mexican Compositae.

Grasses.—Head curator Jason R. Swallen continued his studies
of the grasses of southern Brazil. He also prepared a key to the
genera of grasses of Mexico, to be included in a book on Mexican
grasses, at the request of Dr. Efraim Hernandez. Two other short
papers describing new species and several book reviews were written
on request.

Dr. Thomas R. Soderstrom, assistant curator, prepared a treatment
of the species of Wuhlenbergia at one time referred to the genus
E’picampes.

Mrs. Agnes Chase, honorary research associate, continued her work
on the comprehensive catalogue of grass genera and species.

Dr. F. A. McClure, honorary research associate, advanced his studies
on the bamboos. He completed the manuscript cards of the genera
of the Bambusoideae for the “Index Nominum Genericorum,” and
furthered his treatment of the bamboo genera of the world for the

82 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

new edition of “Die Natiirlichen Pflanzenfamilien.” He prepared an
article on “Bamboo” published in the Encyclopaedia Britannica and
another entitled “Toward a fuller description of the Bambusoideae”
to be published in the Kew Bulletin.

Ferns.—Curator Conrad VY. Morton continued with the study of
the ferns of tropical America, particularly with the genera blechnum,
Gleichenia, and Dicranopteris, for which revisions of the Andean
species are well under way. During the summer of 1960 he spent two
weeks in study in Europe, at the Muséum National d’Histoire Na-
turelle, Paris, the British Museum (Natural History), and the Royal
Botanic Gardens, Kew, England, where a number of type specimens
and other interesting material were studied. During these visits he
also examined material of some phanerogamic genera, notably Sola-
num and Colummea.

Cryptogams.—Dr. Mason E. Hale, associate curator in charge,
continued work on a monographic revision of the lichen genus
Parmelia in the Western Hemisphere. The collections that he made
in Mexico were chemically tested and identified, and large miscellane-
ous collections from various herbaria were studied. Michael Wirth,
a former graduate student at Harvard University, was engaged for
ten months as a research assistant and carried out much of the routine
work. Dr. Hale’s “Lichen Handbook,” was published by the Smith-
sonian Institution as a companion work to Agnes Chase’s “Handbook
of Grasses,” which the Institution recently reprinted.

Associate curator Paul Conger carried forward work on research
projects in progress, including a study of the diatoms of Chincoteague
Bay, a revision of the genus Grammatophora, and an analysis of
diatom samples of the British, Australian, and New Zealand Antarctic
Expedition.

Assistant curator Robert Ireland continued work on a long term
project of writing a moss flora for Virginia. He also studied the moss
collections made by Dr. Hale in Mexico, and started a detailed study
of several species of the moss genus Atrichum.

Woods.—Curator William L. Stern made a brief anatomical survey
of the woods of Theobroma, the genus to which cacao belongs, in
conjunction with a taxonomic study of the genus by Dr. José Cuatre-
casas. Much of his time was taken up in the organization and
curatorial work of the newly created division. For the purposes of
examining facilities, observing collections, and arranging for ex-
changes, he visited various similar laboratories.

Research by visiting investigators.—Dr. Oscar Tovar, of the Uni-
versity of San Marcos, Lima, Peru, completed his work on the grasses
of the Central Andes and returned to Peru early in December.
Tuguo Tateoka, National Institute of Genetics, Misima, Japan, spent

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 83

several days at the herbarium examining specimens of critical genera
of grasses. Mrs. E. R. Faithorn, Annapolis, Md., spent a day each
week through the year studying diatoms.

More than 1,000 visitors made use of the National Herbarium and
its facilities to advance their research projects or to gather informa-
tion on a variety of subjects. Among them were:

Clair Brown, Louisiana State University; Carl Epling and Harlan Lewis,
University of California, Los Angeles; Lincoln Constance, University of Cali-
fornia, Berkeley ; George R. Proctor, The Institute of Jamaica; H. HE. Moore,
Jr., Bailey Hortorium; A. J. Sharp, University of Tennessee; R. K. Godfrey,
Florida State University; Richard A. Howard, Dr. and Mrs. Rolla M. Tryon,
Jr., Miss Edith Scamman, and Kenneth A. Wilson, Harvard University; C. B.
Heiser, Jr., Indiana University; Richard W. Holm, Stanford University; Bas-
sett Maguire and H. W. Rickett, New York Botanical Garden; Hdgar T. Wherry,
University of Pennsylvania; A. H. Smith, University of Michigan; Vernon
Ahmadjian, Clark University; Margaret Green, Candler, N.C.; Grace Howard,
University of Washington; K. Mosbach, Lund, Sweden; T. Seshadri, University
of New Delhi; A. Conger, University of Florida; J. H. Hankins and Henry Curry,
Richmond, Va.; Sherwin Carliquist and Philip A. Munz, Rancho Santa Ana
Botanic Garden; Ernst C. Abbe, University of Minnesota; Ken Shimaji, Uni-
versity of Tokyo; Oswald Tippo, University of Colorado; Lester Holdridge,
Costa Rica; C. Earle Smith, Chicago Natural History Museum; and B. Francis
Kukachka, Forest Products Laboratory.

As in the past, staff members of various Government agencies,
especially the Department of the Interior and the Department of

Agriculture, made use of the facilities of the National Herbarium in
their work.

Geology

Mineralogy and petrology.—Curator George S. Switzer completed
his annual review of the diamond industry and continued work on a
long-term research project on the sulfate and related minerals. In
August a 10-day period was spent collecting in southern Norway,
where interesting and valuable series of minerals were obtained for
the national collections. During his European visit Dr. Switzer
participated in the International Geological Congress and the second
general session of the International Mineralogical Association in
Copenhagen.

Associate curator Paul E. Desautels continued to work on a miner-
alized vein at Centreville, Va., and on the lead oxychloride minerals
of Laurium, Greece. During the year he made collecting trips to
Illinois and New Jersey, and in January he was elected president of
the Mineralogical Society of the District of Columbia.

Roy S. Clarke, Jr., chemist in the division, continued work on
tektites from Georgia and the single specimen from Martha’s Vine-

yard, Mass. ‘These studies, the results of which will shortly be pub-
lished, point to a remarkable similarity in properties of tektite speci-
mens from widely separated localities, and give new descriptive data.
A completely satisfactory interpretation of these data has not been
possible, and related studies are in progress. In addition, Mr. Clarke
continued work on a long-range study of the solubility of calcium
borate minerals.

The research of associate curator E. P. Henderson continued to
be centered on meteorites and tektites. The acceleration of accessions
in these areas during the year greatly improves the national collec-
tions as a source of future research material.

Invertebrate paleontology and paleobotany.—During the year
substantial progress was made by most members of the division.
Head curator G. A. Cooper, accompanied by museum aide Henry B.
Roberts and Dr. Druid Wilson, of the U.S. Geological Survey, spent
two days at Hampton, Va., searching for Miocene invertebrate fossils
with Mr. George Webb, a local collector who guided the party. A
large collection of exceptionally fine mollusks, some new to the na-
tional collection, was obtained.

Dr. Cooper and research assistant Richard E. Grant have made
excellent progress on their Glass Mountains brachiopod studies. To
date they have described 459 species belonging to 109 genera, of which
32 genera are new. The manuscript now totals 2336 pages. At the
close of the fiscal year Dr. Cooper and Dr. Grant were conducting
field work in New Mexico, Texas, and adjacent States, collecting
invertebrate fossils and studying Pennsylvanian and Permian strata
in the Glass, Chinati, and Guadalupe Mts. Dr. Cooper was elected
president of the Geological Society of Washington in December.

Dr. Richard S. Boardman, associate curator in charge of the division,
continued work on the revision of the genera of Paleozoic treposto-
matous bryozoans. Study photographs, revised generic concepts, and
sorting of thin sections have been completed for 14 genera and the
included species. Dr. Boardman spent July, August, and part of Sep-
tember collecting lower Paleozoic fossils in Sweden. The collections
made will provide the Museum with good reference collections to com-
pare with American faunas. He also took advantage of this European
trip to attend the International Geological Congress in Copenhagen.

Associate curator Porter M. Kier has completed his monograph on
the cassiduloid echinoids. In June 1960 he visited Europe to study
specimens in museums in Paris, Geneva, Basel, Liege, London, and
Cambridge. He photographed many type specimens, which will be
published in the monograph. This restudy of type specimens has
shown that many of the species have been inaccurately described and
has revealed several evolutionary trends, thus resulting in a new and

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 87

more natural classification. In addition to other projects, Dr. Kier is
working on the redescription of the Paleozoic echinoids from Belgium.
These echinoids were described in 1929 by R. T. Jackson. However,
the specimens were not completely cleaned and many important fea-
tures were therefore not described. As this fauna of Paleozoic echi-
noids is the largest in the world, 25 species, its redescription should
prove of interest. All specimens have been cleaned, photographed,
and described, and the manuscript is approaching completion.

Dr. Kier joined Dr. Druid Wilson, of the U.S. Geological Survey,
on a collecting trip in Alabama and Georgia in April. Many Pale-
ocene and Eocene echinoids were collected, including one large slab,
covered with many sand dollars, now exhibited in the new hall of
fossils.

Associate curator Richard Cifelli accompanied Dr. Ralph Imlay,
of the U.S. Geological Survey, to the western interior of the country
and collected Foraminifera from the key Jurassic sections. In Au-
gust, November, January, and May, Dr. Cifelli made collections of
pelagic Foraminifera from plankton hauls between Woods Hole and
Bermuda. This is a project conducted in cooperation with the Woods
Hole Oceanographic Institution, to study the seasonal variation of
pelagic Foraminifera. In April and May, Dr. Cifelli was aboard the
Woods Hole research vessel Chain on a cruise to the eastern equatorial
Atlantic. Scientists on the ship made plankton hauls between Ber-
muda and the equator, took five bottom cores, and collected several
bottom samples. These are very important collections because they
come from a remote, not easily accessible part of the world. The
Foraminifera from these collections will be studied in cooperation
with Woods Hole.

Dr. Cifelli is preparing for publication a study of the morphology
and internal structure of Streblus beccarti (Linné). This is a key
species in the classification of a large group of Foraminifera and its
internal structure has been misinterpreted, affecting the classification
of the group. The sampling program for the seasonal variation study
of pelagic Foraminifera was completed this year, all material has been
examined, and preliminary identifications of species have been made.

Dr. Erle G. Kauffman, associate curator, completed a major study
of Mesozoic paleontology, stratigraphy, and paleoecology in south-
central Colorado, started before he joined the Museum. He plans to
publish the work in sections in the Journal of Paleontology and the
Bulletin of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists. Dr.
Kauffman has also initiated a broad program of study on the pelecy-
pod genus Znoceramus in North America, primarily concerned with
the formation of a working species concept, redefinition of the existing
species, description of new forms, and biostratigraphic zonation.

90 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

In July and August, Dr. Kauffman accompanied a party from the
University of Michigan on a paleontological expedition to the coal
fields of central Alaska and the Kenai Peninsula. Large collections
of fossil plants were made, but vertebrate and invertebrate fossils were
not discovered in the lower Tertiary sediments examined. During
the fall, many of the classical Maryland Upper Cretaceous localities
were revisited and extensive invertebrate faunas collected. This is
part of a restudy of the Maryland Cretaceous stratigraphy and in-
vertebrate paleontology now under way by several workers.

Museum aide Henry B. Roberts completed a manuscript on the
fossil and Recent decapod crustaceans from Marshall Island bore
holes, to be published by the U.S. Geological Survey. He 1s also
working on a new species of decapod crustacean of the genus Retro-
cypoda that is the first record of the genus in the United States.

Dr. C. Wythe Cooke, honorary research associate, is continuing his
studies on the Mesozoic and Tertiary Echinoidea, and R. S. Bassler,
honorary research associate, is continuing his study of leperditid
ostracods. Dr. Allison R. Palmer, of the U.S. Geological Survey,
was attached to the department for a month while visiting museums
and universities in Australia; he brought back beautifully prepared
casts of important Cambrian trilobites which will make a valuable
addition to the Museum’s trilobite collection.

Vertebrate paleontology.—Curator C. Lewis Gazin has advanced
his investigation of the lower Eocene mammalian faunas of the Knight
formation, having completed study of all but one of the thirteen
orders of mammals then extant. Only the Perissodactyla, a relatively
large and diversified group as early as Eocene time, remains to be
reviewed. A part of this study concerned with sciuravid rodents was
abstracted and submitted for publication separately in order to place
on record more promptly certain new genera and species. The Knight
investigation is supplemental to a report published in 1952 and is
based on later, more extensive collections from a variety of localities
representing successive horizons in the lower Eocene of Wyoming.

Dr. Gazin completed a report on the occurrences of Paleocene Mam-
malia in various Tertiary basins of deposition in Wyoming for the
guidebook of the 1961 field conference of the Wyoming Geological
Association. In this were discussed the history of exploration and
research, the results of faunal studies, and the evidence on which
correlations have been made between basins and with regions outside
the State.

Tn connection with his general study of early Tertiary mammals,
Dr. Gazin spent the early part of this year and the latter part of
the preceding year reviewing and studying collections in the principal
natural history museums of Europe. This included in particular

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCE OI

detailed examination of upper Paleocene mammals from Cernay,
France, in the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris, and
various lower Eocene to Oligocene collections in museums at Lyon,
Basel, Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Vienna, Brussels, and London, as well as
Paris.

While in Europe Dr. Gazin attended, as the delegate for the Smith-
sonian Institution and for the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, the
meetings of the International Geological Congress held in Copenhagen
in August. He also participated in an international symposium on
early mammals held at the Institut Royal des Sciences Naturelles,
Brussels, and later attended the Sth symposium on vertebrate paleon-
tology and comparative anatomy held at Oxford University.

Associate curator David H. Dunkle interrupted his studies of
Mesozoic origins of living orders of ray-finned fishes early this year
in order to accept a two-year appointment with the U.S. Geological
Survey, to participate in a training program in Pakistan, involving
the teaching of modern research and laboratory methods in paleon-
tology in connection with a State Department project.

Associate curator Nicholas Hotton III has continued his study of
Permian reptiles. He investigated the occurrence of a large Miocene
baleen whale near Hampton, Va., reported to the Museum by George
Webb of that city, in September. Accompanied by Dr. Frank C.
Whitmore, Jr., of the U.S. Geological Survey, and Kurt F. Hau-
schildt, of the laboratory of vertebrate paleontology, he spent a week
in the excavation of this whale, unusual for so early a stage in the
Tertiary. Also, in the company of William E. Moran, formerly of
our laboratory of vertebrate paleontology, he investigated localities
for Mississippian tetrapods in the vicinity of Greer, W. Va., where
Mr. Moran had earlier located remains of a labyrinthodont am-
phibian; and at Fairchance, Pa., at the Greer limestone quarry they
were successful in finding remarkably good material of an embolom-
erous amphibian.

In February, Dr. Hotton left for South Africa for an extended
collecting season in the famous Karroo beds. In this work he was
furnished every accommodation by Dr. A. S. Brink, of the Bernard
Price Institute for Paleontological Research at the University of
Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, and was helped immeasurably in
the field by the Institute’s field officer, J. W. Kitching, whose
knowledge of the Karroo region is second to none. Considerable
success was achieved in securing many skulls and other skeletal por-
tions of a variety of Permian and Triassic vertebrate forms, none of
which were previously represented in the collections of the Museum.
This work is continuing at the close of the fiscal year.

Museum of History and Technology
Science and Technology

Physical sciences.—In the field of physical sciences, Dr. Robert P.
Multhauf, head curator of the department, continued his research on
the history of early chemistry. He read proof on his paper dealing
with self-registering meteorological instruments.

Mechanical and civil engineering.—Curator Eugene S. Ferguson
has completed the editing and annotating of the book-length early
engineering reminiscences of George Escol Sellers. ‘This first-person
narrative, which covers the years 1815-1840, will provide scholars with
important source material for the history of early mechanical and
civil engineering practice in the United States and England. The
detailed descriptions of machines and processes are wnique, and in-
sights into the character and behavior of some outstanding early
mechanicians are often sharp and fresh. Mr. Ferguson has also made
satisfactory progress with his bibliography for the history of tech-
nology (with emphasis upon mechanical engineering), which is in-

tended to complement the existing bibliographies in allied fields, such
as the history of science. His paper “John Ericsson and the Age of
Caloric” was published by the Museum.

Associate curator Edwin A. Battison, in documenting a unique
15th-century thread-cutting device in the collections, has made im-
portant progress on his paper dealing with thread-cutting lathes with-
out gears, since 1480.

Robert M. Vogel, associate curator, substantially completed a study
of the 19th-century civil engineer and bridge builder, Wendell Boll-
man, who introduced the first iron bridge trussing system that was
used consistently on an American railroad. His study of the elevator
systems of the Eiffel Tower was published.

Transportation.—Much research work is being done in the divi-
sion of transportation to prepare plans for new exhibit models. The
requirements of exhibits have necessitated an extensive research pro-
gram and this will continue until the gaps are filled in the collection.

Curator Howard I. Chapelle completed work on his new catalog of
the watercraft collection, which was published by the Museum in
November. His paper on the steamship Savannah is now in the
hands of the printer. Editorial work continues on his manuscript
of the bark canoes of North America, and his manuscript on Arctic
skin boats has been accepted for publication by the Museum.

John H. White, Jr., associate curator, has completed research on
the Cincinnati locomotive builders and the first draft is about 85 per-
cent complete. His paper on the introduction of the locomotive
safety truck was in press.

Electricity.—In the division of electricity long-range research in-
cludes expansion of the data and biographical files, preparation of
bibliographies, accumulation of documentary material in the history
of electricity, additions to the collection of electrical patents and
photographs, and consolidation of the Clark collection on the history
of the radio.

Curator W. James King’s doctoral dissertation, on the history of
17th-century science, has been accepted by the Graduate School of
Cornell University. Two of his papers on 19th-century electrical
technology were in press.

Medical sciences.—During the year, curator John B. Blake con-
tinued his research on the history of public health in the United States,
1900-1950. He has uncovered and published, with comments, a de-
scription of the first hypodermic syringe. He has prepared brief
biographies of Lydia Folger Fowler and Mary Gove Nichols for
Notable American Women, 1607-1950, a biographical dictionary
being prepared under the sponsorship of Radcliffe College, and he is
preparing a longer biographical article on Mrs. Gove Nichols.

94 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

Associate curator Sami K. Hamarneh examined several Arabic
manuscripts related to pharmacy and medicine during his trips to
New Haven, Conn., Philadelphia, Pa., and Cambridge, Mass. He
also advanced his research on chemical therapy and the rise of phar-
macy and hospitals in Islam. He read proof on his study of al-
Zahrawi’s 10th-century surgical treatise.

Research by outside investigators—Frances Gudemann and
others representing the U.S. Science Exhibit, Century 21 Exhibition
(Seattle), consulted Dr. Multhauf concerning the exhibition of phys-
ical sciences. Lew Suverkrop, of Bakersfield, Calif., made a study
of the Ramsden dividing engine and screw cutting lathe in connection
with a research project in the history of the dividing engine. Sieg-
fried Graebner consulted the collections on several occasions in con-
nection with his work in preparing a classroom text of the history
of surveying. Dr. Hugh Hicks, of Baltimore, Md., visited the divi-
sion of electricity several times to study the collection of incandescent
lamps.

A number of visitors requested technical information in all fields of
transportation.

Arts and Manufactures

Textiles—Grace L. Rogers, associate curator in charge, continued
her investigation of the samplers in the museum collection in prepara-
tion for a history and catalog. In answer to a request from the
Society for the History of Technology, Miss Rogers wrote an exten-
sive review of the textile portions of the five-volume work by Charles
Singer and others, “A History of Technology.” Her paper “Textiles
and Textile Machines” was published in the fall, 1960, issue of Z’ech-
nology and Culture. In December Miss Rogers examined over three
hundred old sewing machines at the Singer Manufacturing Company’s
Elizabethport factory. These machines, representing products of a
great many 19th century companies, were found to have great his-
torical significance. One hundred and forty-two were selected for
the museum collection, several being of the earliest manufactured
styles and previously unrepresented in our collection. Miss Rogers
continued her work as senior adviser for the L’ncyclopaedia Britan-
nica, reviewing twenty textile papers for technical content and
writing the section on sewing machines for the 1962 printing.

Museum aide Doris Bowman began a detailed study of 19th-
century sewing clamps and related needlework accessories. Informa-
tion in book form is quite limited. Patent Office records, contemporary
periodicals, and related journals are being investigated. The infor-
mation will be used in cataloging a large collection of such imple-
ments recently donated to the textile collections. If the findings are

extensive, the information will be presented for publication in the
form of a history and catalog.

Mr. Milton Eisler, physical science technician, continued his
textile laboratory work devising techniques and performing prac-
tical experiments in the safe removal of soil and stains from all
types of natural fiber textiles. Experiments in determining ap-
propriate adhesives for use in mounting fragile textiles also have
been initiated.

Ceramics and glass.—Paul V. Gardner, associate curator in charge,
continued his research on the collections of ceramics and glass in the
Museum. He has started to assemble data for a biography of
Frederick Carder, founder of the Steuben Glass Works and out-
standing artist in glass.

; AND NETTING

Hand knitting and netting are explained and compared with machine
methods in the newly opened section of the textile hall.

Graphic arts.—Curator Jacob Kainen completed articles for the
Encyclopaedia Britannica, on Lithography, Gravure, Collotype, Silk
Screen Printing, Electrotyping, and Sepia. He also completed for
the Grolier Encyclopedia articles on Engraving, Drypoit, and
Lithography, and wrote a preface to an illustrated booklet, Zrving
Amen: Woodcuts, published by Artists Studio, New York. An illus-
trated article on John Baptist Jackson was prepared for publication
in The Print Council Annual. He also read proof on his monograph
of Jackson, the English artist who pioneered in color printing from
wood blocks in the first half of the 18th century. This study, the
first full-length work on the artist, is being published by the Museum.
Mr. Kainen continued to work on the Dutch engraver Hendrick
Goltzius (1558-1617) ; his study will examine some phases of Goltzius’
style, which had a wide influence.

Mr. Kainen served as juror for an exhibition, “Trends in American
Art,” at Howard University, and received first prize for his water-
color, Woman with Bird, at the 64th Annual National Exhibition of
the Washington Water Color Association.

Fuller O. Griffith, associate curator, completed his illustrated catalog
of the lithographs of Childe Hassam (1859-1935), which have been

Mr. Griffith served as Juror for two exhibitions of art.

Associate curator Eugene Ostroff, section of photography, in co-
operation with Dr. Rudolf Kingslake, director of optical design for
the Eastman Kodak Co., restudied the entire collection of photographic
lenses. These optics were identified and cross-indexed according to
design and manufacture.

Manufactures and heavy industries.—Head curator Philip W.
Bishop extended his contribution to Histoire Générale des Tech-
niques and continued his research on the history of manufacturing
techniques. He also began a study of the influence of Andrew Ure
(1778-1857) on American technology. During the summer he visited
the Science Museum in London, the Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers,
in Paris, and the Deutsches Museum, in Munich, and consulted with
their officials.

Dr. Charles O. Houston, Jr., associate curator, continued his work
on a chronology of innovation in the coal industry.

98 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT, 1961

Agriculture and forest products.—In September Edward C. Ken-
dall, associate curator in charge, visited the Western Development
Museum in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, to study an extensive
collection of farm steam engines and tractors dating from the 1880's
to the recent past. Mr. Kendall also visited Seattle and the central
part of Washington to inspect the kind of agriculture and lumbering
carried on in the Northwest. At the Daniel Parrish Witter Agricul-
tural Museum on the State Fair Grounds at Syracuse, N.Y., Mr. Ken-
dall was able to study some interesting and rare pieces of equipment,
including an Ames portable farm steam engine built in 1866 and
other valuable source material on farm machines manufactured in
New York State.

In May Mr. Kendall and Mr. Carl Rishell, consultant to the sec-
tion of forest products, visited New Orleans while the National
Lumber Manufacturers’ Association was meeting there. This visit
resulted in many offers of cooperation and assistance from individuals
and lumber firms in the development of the Forest Products Hall
now being planned for the new Museum of History and Technology.

Research by visiting investigators—Many visitors used the de-
partment’s collections and were aided in their work by staff mem-
bers. Included were representatives of the National Geographic
Society. Other visitors were:

Mildred Davidson, Art Institute of Chicago; Mrs. George Weems Williams,
Maryland Historical Society; Adolphe Cavallo, Boston Museum of Fine Arts;
Richard Pennington, Graphic Arts Musuem of McGill University, Montreal,
Canada; Norman Barbee, Howard University; R. L. Stehle and Aline Fruhauf,
Washington, D.C.; Andrei A. Mylnikov and Orest G. Vereiski, of the Soviet Union,
sponsored by the Committee on Leaders and Specialists of the American Council

on Education; Balakrishna Sarna, Nepal; Francois Mathey, Curator of Decora-
tive Arts, Musée du Louvre, Paris; and Gordon Hendricks, New York City.

Head curator Richard H. Howland is currently engaged in two
research projects concerned with architectural history: one involves
the White House, the other concerns James Renwick’s original Smith-
sonian Institution building.

Peter C. Welsh, associate curator, has completed studies on the value
of patent documents to the social historian, on the correlation of
popular attitudes and technical progress, and on the lithograph as a
cultural document. He is continuing long range research in the
United States Patent Office records.

Assistant curator Arlene Krimgold has nearly brought to comple-
tion an investigation of the stained glass industry in the United States
before 1900 and has completed a study of children’s games and their
educational value in 19th-century America.

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 99

Political history.—Curator Wilcomb E. Washburn has undertaken
several studies; one, prepared for delivery at the American Indian
Ethnohistoric Conference at Indiana University in November, at-
tempts to define and justify the concept of ethnohistory. Another
paper, which analyzes the origin of several seventeenth-century Indian
wars, was delivered at the Eleventh Conference on Early American
History held at the University of Michigan in March. A third study,
of the effects of Bacon’s Rebellion on government in England and
Virginia, was carried through several editorial stages prior to its
scheduled publication in the coming year.

Associate curator Margaret B. Klapthor continued her research
on furnishings of the White House and on White House china. She
completed an article on china of the Lincoln administration, and her
manuscript on presentation silver in the U.S. National Museum is in
press.

Assistant curator Anne W. Murray continued her research on
costume history and on the Copp collection. She has two articles
ready for publication, one in Antiques magazine, on the apron, and
another for the Z’ncyclopaedia Britannica on costume in 17th- and
18th-century America.

Cultural History.—Curator C. Malcolm Watkins spent five weeks
in England examining 17th-century earthenwares in numerous Eng-
lish museums and archeological collections, in connection with his
long-range study of ceramics found in colonial American sites. This
has resulted in the identification and dating of many pottery types
exported to the colonies, with consequent new inferences to be drawn
with respect to colonial trade. In collaboration with honorary re-
search associate Ivor Noel Hume, he has also worked on a historical
archeological study of the career and products of William Rogers,
Virginia’s principal potter, who worked in Yorktown in the early
18th century. His study of North Devon pottery and its export to
America in the 17th century was completed and published.

Associate curator John D. Shortridge has continued his catalog
of the musical instrument collection and has completed, with Frank
Breckenridge, a paper on the mechanics of the harpsichord jack.

Rodris C. Roth, associate curator, has carried on her studies of
domestic furnishings. These have proved useful to historical museums
and social historians alike. Her paper on tea service in 18th-century
America was published by the Museum. She is bringing to conclusion
a paper on American floor coverings and has advanced another on 18th-
century fireplace equipment. She has also been working on a study of
the American-made furniture displayed at the Centennial Exhibition
in Philadelphia in 1876.

Research on White House china, a continuing program in the Museum,
has resulted in identification of services used by various First Ladies.
The gravy boat, held by associate curator Margaret Brown Klapthor,

and the soup plate (right) are from a service ordered by Mrs. Lincoln
in 1865.

Assistant curator John N. Pearce is collaborating with the Mary-
land Archeological Society in the excavation of two late 18th- and
early 19th-century stoneware and earthenware pottery sites in Balti-
more. His findings will enable him to enlarge upon his unpublished
manuscript on the early Baltimore potters and their wares. Another
study in progress on the trans-Atlantic culture of late 18th-century
America deals with the Plhmpton sisters and their French husbands
and centers upon an unusual collection of heirlooms in the National
Museum from a Massachusetts family of French and New England
descent. This study will demonstrate a frequent but little noted
French impingement on American culture in the Federal Period. Mr.
Pearce has completed articles on a Seymour desk and on New York
silver 2-handled paneled bowls, and in collaboration with Professor

tobert C. Smith of the University of Pennsylvania, has advanced a
paper on the Meeks furniture makers.

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 101

Anthony W. Hathaway, junior curator, has in draft a manuscript
on patented structural elements of the pianoforte between 1800 and
1875, and has begun another on patented musical notation during the
first three-quarters of the 19th century. He is also continuing a study
of the structural use of iron in 19th-century St. Louis, as illustrated in
the collection of iron architectural material recently transferred to the
Smithsonian Institution from the National Park Service.

Ivor Noél Hume, honorary research associate, has excavated a
closely dated early 18th-century Virginia plantation site, artifacts
from which will be of value to archeologists for purposes of compara-
tive dating as well as being of intrinsic historical] interest. He is cur-
rently preparing a report on the excavation.

Philately and postal history.——George T. Turner, associate cu-
rator in charge, continued his research on early stagecoach mail con-
tracts, and served as Washington representative of the Hobbies Com-
mittee of the People-to-People Program.

Frank J. McCall, associate curator, continued research on early
Florida postal history and Hawaiian postal history of the early mis-
sionary days. He acted as philatelic advisor to the Dead Letter Office
and to former Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield.

Assistant curator Carl H. Scheele continues his research on United
States posts.

Numismatics.—Vladimir Clain-Stefanelli, associate curator in
charge, progressed in his work on his dictionary of American en-
gravers and medallists and the corpus of his work on ancient Greek
coins of northern Greece. <A preliminary report concerned with the
chronological sequence of posthumous Lysimachus gold staters struck
at Kallatis was presented at the Sixty-Second General Meeting of the
Archaeological Institute of America. Dr. Clain-Stefanelli frequently
functioned as a consultant to the Treasury Department, Bureau of
the Mint, in his capacity as special adviser on the numismatic status
of modern gold coins and medals.

Mrs. Elvira Clain-Stefanelli, associate curator, completed a study
on numismatics which presents the evolution of scientific research in
the field of numismatics throughout the ages. <A select critical bibliog-
raphy completes this basic reference book. The modern gold coinages
of Germany and the German States, and of South America, were
studied and prepared for a special publication to appear as part of a
general study on the modern gold coimages of the world issued since
1800. A new project in connection with modern medallic art is con-
cerned with the study of the engravers and medalists who produced
the coins and medals of Peter the Great of Russia.

Armed Forces History

Military history—Curator Edgar M. Howell, in conjunction with
Colonel J. Duncan Campbell, completed and submitted for publication
a comprehensive, critical and descriptive catalog of American mili-
tary insignia, 1800-1851. His paper on Herman Steiffel, soldier-artist
of the West, was published by the Museum. He prepared an annota-
ted edition of Civil War uniform regulations illustrated with official
War Department uniform photographs, which was published by the
Smithsonian Institution. He also completed a biographical sketch
of Harvey Dunn, the World War I combat artist, for publication by
American Heritage, and a study “Early Military Insignia and Ameri-
can Design” for Antiques magazine.

Mr. Howell, in conjunction with Colonel J. Duncan Campbell, con-
tinued archeological investigation of War of 1812 cantonment sites at
Sackets Harbor, New York. A number of outstanding recoveries
were made and comprehensive plans were completed for continuing
investigation. Mr. Howell, again in conjunction with Colonel Camp-
bell, located and excavated Ft. Adams (1799-1810) near Woodville,
Miss., with excellent results.

Associate curator Craddock R. Goins, Jr., revised and expanded
portions of the script for the new hall of ordnance, and in conjunction
with this added considerable data to the catalog he is preparing of the
weapons collections. Additional documentation was found and in-
cluded in a study being prepared by Mr. Goins on the Hall rifle and
the weapons and ammunition developed by Edward Maynard.

Museum aide Donald Kloster continued his study on the American
usage and changes in the floral motif ‘“Rosemaling” as brought to the
United States by Norwegian immigrants.

Museum aide John L. Rawls, long a student of naval and military
ordnance, contributed to The American Rifleman an article, “Safety
with the Rifle-Musket.”

Naval history.—Mendel L. Peterson, head curator of the depart-
ment, made substantial progress in his study of the marking and
decoration of muzzle-loading cannon, completing the collating of
dates and photographs gathered during the past six years. He also
continued the research associated with the underwater exploration
program in the fields of preservation of materials recovered from
sea water and identification of shipwreck sites through internal evi-
dence and documents in European archives. On the basis of the in-
vestigation of the site of an early 17th century wreck site on the reefs
of Bermuda, he prepared two manuscripts on materials found on that
site. These are in the hands of editors and will be published this fall.

INVESTIGATION AND RESEARCH 103

Continuing his study of the development of United States naval
construction, Philip K. Lundeberg, associate curator in charge of
the division, began preparation of a catalog of American warship
models and half models in the national collections. During the year
he studied naval and maritime collections in museums, naval ship-
yards, and departments of naval architecture at universities on the
east and west coasts. Dr. Lundeberg contributed a chapter on the
Battle of the Atlantic to “The Great Sea War,” a history of naval
operations during the Second World War, edited by EK. B. Potter and
Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz. In addition, he reviewed works
on the naval history of World War II in the American Historical
Review and Military Affairs.

Research by visiting investigators.—Assistance was provided to
other government and private agencies throughout the year. Among
organizations which utilized the collections and resources of the de-
partment of armed forces history were: Heraldic Branch, Office of
Quartermaster General, Department of the Army; Historical Di-
vision and Technical Intelligence Branch, Office of Chief of Ordnance,
Department of the Army; Prints Division and General Reference
Service, Library of Congress; Civil War and Early Wars Branch,
