STEPHEN CHAPMAN SIMMS 
March 22, 1863—January 28, 1937 
Elected Director July 16, 1928 


The Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History desire to 
express and record their deep sorrow at the grievous loss which has 
come to them and to the institution in the death, on January 28, 
1937, of their fellow Trustee, Secretary of the Board, and Director 
of the Museum, Stephen Chapman Simms. 

Few men have had such qualifications, based on native ability 
combined ideally with years of varied experience, for the position of 
director of a great museum. His was a splendid career, and one which 
may well serve as a model and inspiration to all museum workers, in 
this institution and elsewhere. His broad outlook, his unflagging devo- 
tion to the Museum not in the mere sense of duty, but as something 
he loved and to which he consecrated the entire energy of his life, his 
remarkable understanding of the ways in which the Museum could 
be made most useful and valuable to the public, and his kindness 
and sympathy with his associates on the Staff, will leave a lasting 
impress on the institution, and in the memories of all who knew him. 


Mr. Simms had been a member of the Museum Staff since 
1894, or almost from the time of the institution’s founding. He 
was first assigned to the position of Assistant Curator of Industrial 
Arts, and later became Assistant Curator of Ethnology. He con- 
ducted a number of successful expeditions for the Department of 
Anthropology, notably among the American Indians of the west, 
and in the Philippine Islands. The collections he made remain as 
permanent and valuable features of the Museum’s exhibits and study 
collections. 

In 1912, when the Department of the N. W. Harris Public 
School Extension was established, Mr. Simms was appointed its 
Curator. Under his direction the work of this Department rapidly 
developed into one of the Museum’s most important educational 
activities. He originated and organized the system whereby the 
institution is now in daily contact with Chicago’s 500,000 school 
children by means of traveling exhibits circulated among their 
schools; and he supervised the creation of more than 1,200 such 
exhibits. The value of this work, and the success with which it 
was administered, has been attested year after year in the praises 


163 


164 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


which have come to the Museum from thousands of school officials, 


teachers, and the children themselves. Moreover, this work, em- 


bracing all of the sciences with which the Museum is concerned, 
gave Mr. Simms an experience which was to prove invaluable when, 
in 1928, the Trustees elected him as Director. 

Mr. Simms’ administration as Director was marked by two 
distinct and important periods of the Museum’s history. The first 
embraced years which, by reason of the unprecedented number of 
far-flung major expeditions, and the tremendous progress made in 
expanding exhibits and all Museum activities, must always be 
remembered as among the years of the institution’s greatest develop- 
ment. The second period consisted of several years which were 
among the most trying and difficult in the Museum’s history, due 
to the long protracted world financial depression which had its 
inevitable effects upon the Museum’s revenues and thus upon its 
continued progress. In both periods Mr. Simms administered wisely 


and well: in the first, guiding the Museum to the heights of its success 


as a scientific and educational institution; in the second, carrying 
on in the face of previously unparalleled difficulties, and managing 
to maintain the maximum service to the public possible under the 
circumstances, with a minimum of disruption to the Museum’s 
activities and a minimum of suffering among its personnel. 

We might write many thousands of words in eulogy, yet all 
that should be said could not be told—Stephen Chapman Simms’ 
accomplishments live after him, a better memorial than any that 
can be written. 

Therefore, be it resolved, that this testimonial of our esteem 
and affection for our departed Director be placed in the permanent 
records of the Board of Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History, 
to perpetuate his memory; 

And be it further resolved, that our deepest sympathy be con- 
veyed to his widow and the bereaved family, and that a copy of 
this resolution be sent to them.

With deep regret the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural 
History have learned of the death on February 5, 1937, of Frederick 
Holbrook Rawson, former member of the Board, and a Benefactor 
of the Museum. Mr. Rawson had been one of the most active and 
able men of the group charged with guiding the progress of this 
institution, and his wise counsel and respected advice have been 
sorely missed by his fellow Trustees ever since ill health forced him 
to retire from the Board in 1935. 


Because of his high standing as one of Chicago’s leading bankers, 
Mr. Rawson was placed on the Finance Committee, shortly after 
his election to the Board in 1927. His services on that Committee 
were of incalculable value to the Museum, especially during the recent 
years of depression when the institution’s very existence was more 
‘than ever before dependent upon the sagacity with which its finan- 
cial affairs were managed in the face of the extreme difficulties of 
the times. 


The benefactions which the Museum owes to Mr. Rawson began 
even before he became connected with the Board of Trustees. On 
several occasions he contributed large amounts of money to the 
institution for the carrying out of projects important to its growth 
and progress. In 1926 he organized, and presented funds for, the 
First Rawson—MacMillan Subarctic Expedition of Field Museum, 
_and in the following year he made possible the larger Second Rawson— 
MacMillan Expedition, the members of which were enabled through 
his generosity to spend fully fifteen months in Labrador and Baffin- 
land, making collections and conducting researches for the Museum. 
Both of these expeditions, under the leadership of Mr. Rawson’s 
friend, the eminent Arctic explorer Lieutenant-Commander Donald 
-B. MacMillan, obtained valuable results for the Museum’s Depart- 
ments of Anthropology, Geology, and Zoology. 
In 1929 Mr. Rawson sponsored a third expedition, the Frederick 
-H. Rawson—Field Museum Ethnological Expedition to West Africa, 
which explored parts of that continent in which little previous work 
had been done by anthropologists, and secured extensive collections 
of value for the Museum’s exhibits and for use in research work.

A few years later Mr. Rawson contributed many more thou- 
sands of dollars toward the cost of groups restoring types of pre- 
historic man, thus taking his place among the foremost of those who 
enabled this Museum to create its Hall of the Stone Age of the Old 
World, which ranks as an achievement without parallel among the 
museums of the world. 

Field Museum was not alone as a beneficiary of Mr. Rawson’s 
philanthropy. He was a wholehearted civic leader who was ever 
ready to aid to the best of his ability any worthy cause. Libraries, 
hospitals, homes for the unfortunate, and universities all benefited 
by his generous gifts, and his devotion of his time and efforts to 
the promotion of their interests. In his business activities, too, he 
was well known as a great leader—one who possessed not only the 
qualities which brought him success, but also a full measure of 
warmth and human kindness. 

Therefore, be it resolved, that this testimonial be placed in the 
permanent records of the Board of Trustees of Field Museum, to 
perpetuate his memory, and the high esteem in which we held him; 

And be it further resolved, that our deepest sympathy be con- 
veyed to his widow and his bereaved family, and that a copy of this 
resolution be sent to them.

LESLIE WHEELER 
May 17, 1892—February 27, 1937 
Elected a Trustee June 18, 1934 


The untimely death of Leslie Wheeler, on February 27, 1937, 
is a severe loss to Field Museum of Natural History, which will 
be felt equally by his colleagues on the Board of Trustees, and his 
associates on the Scientific Staff. Mr. Wheeler had devoted himself 
wholeheartedly to the interests of the Museum, both as a Trustee 
and as a Research Associate in the field of ornithology, which had 
for years claimed his enthusiastic attention. He was, in addition, 
a Contributor to the Museum, and as a result of his generosity the 
institution’s bird collections have been augmented by more than one 
thousand specimens of hawks, owls, and other birds, many of them 
rare and valuable, cbtained from almost every part of the world. 


Mr. Wheeler’s active interest in and association with the Mu- 
seum began in 1933 when he undertook the difficult and important 
task of building up and adding to the collection of birds of prey. 
He was soon devoting a great deal of time to this work, and his 
efforts were attended with splendid results. His election to the Board, 
and honorary appointment as a member of the Staff, followed shortly 
as a recognition of the value of these activities. Before long, Mr. 
Wheeler had organized a system of contacts with agents and collectors 
in many countries, including some of the most remote and inaccessible 
regions, and a constant stream of much-needed specimens flowed 
into the Museum from these sources. The benefits of the relation- 
ships he established for the Museum will continue even now after 
his passing from our midst. 


As Research Associate, Mr. Wheeler spent many hours at the 
Museum almost every day, studying and working on the birds of 
prey which he presented to the institution. Shortly before his last 
illness, he brought to practical completion for publication his first 
formal research, a taxonomic revision of a group of South American 
wood-owls, together with the scientific description of a new species 
from Chiloe Island off the coast of Chile. His researches were directed 
both upon the biological significance and the economic aspects of 
the many species he studied. The knowledge he gained in his field 
enabled him to make an important contribution to ornithological 


167 


168 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


literature, and to answer many requests for information reaching 
the Museum from others interested in this subject. 

Mr. Wheeler’s position in the Museum was unique. As a 
member of the Scientific Staff he obtained a direct insight into the 
workings of the institution as a whole, and the plans and problems 
involved. Thus, as a Trustee, he was able to convey to his fellows 
on the Board a clearer and more comprehensive view of the needs 
of the Museum. His scholarship and achievements brought him the 
highest regard of both the Trustees and the Staff, and resulted in 
his election as a Fellow of the American Geographical Society, a 
high honor. But even greater was the affection he won by the charm 
and gentleness of his character, and his spirit of good comradeship. 

Therefore, be it resolved, that this expression of our admiration 
and esteem for Mr. Wheeler, and our grief over the loss of his counsel 
and companionship, be spread upon the permanent records of the 
Board; 

And be it further resolved, that our deep sympathy be conveyed. 
to his bereaved family, and that a copy of this resolution be sent to 
his widow.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 
1937 


To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History: 


I have the honor to present a report of the operations of the 
Museum for the year ending December 31, 1937. 

The uncertainty of financial support continues to be the chief 
problem of the Museum. There is great need for a larger Scientific 
Staff, more nearly proportioned to the scope of the institution. 
Additional Staff members could give to the public far greater use 
of the splendid collections now in the Museum, through expansion 
and improvement of exhibits, further extension of educational 
activities, development of research facilities, increased production 
of publications, and various other means. 


There is great need of a pension fund adequate to meet the require- 
ments of a Staff most of whom have spent many years in the service 
of the institution. A splendid beginning on such a fund was made 
through the original contributions of President Stanley Field many 
years ago. Various other urgent needs of the institution since that. 
time have taken all available funds, so that the pension fund is now 
woefully inadequate. 

The need of increased endowments becomes more marked year 

after year. Were it not for the generous support of Mr. Marshall 
Field, Mr. Stanley Field, Mrs. James Nelson Raymond, Mrs. Diego 
Suarez, and a few others, the activities of the Museum would 
necessarily be curtailed at once. Rigid economies are required in 
any case under present-day conditions. 
_ The year was a successful one from the standpoint of service 
rendered by the Museum, as there was an increase in attendance, 
and notable accomplishments were made in various activities for 
the public and for the advancement of science. 

However, the period was saddened by the deaths of several of 
the institution’s most valued supporters and friends. The first of 
these losses was by the death on January 28 of Mr. Stephen C. 
Simms, Director of the Museum since 1928, and one of the oldest 
_members of the Staff in length of service. 

Early the following month Mr. Frederick H. Rawson, who had 
been a member of the Board of Trustees from 1927 until his ill 
health necessitated his resignation in 1935, died at his home 


169 


170 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


in the west. Mr. Rawson had been the sponsor of two expeditions 
to the Subarctic and one to Africa, and he had devoted much 
time, effort and money to the welfare of the Museum for many years. 
In addition to being a Trustee he was also a Benefactor of the 
Museum. 

Within the same month that his fellow Trustee, Mr. Rawson, 
died, Mr. Leslie Wheeler passed away. Mr. Wheeler was interested 
in the Museum not only as a Trustee but as an active co-worker in 
the Division of Ornithology, and his passing removed from the ranks 
of the younger scientists an able and promising man. 

Resolutions of the Board of Trustees on the deaths of Messrs. 
Simms, Rawson and Wheeler will be found in pages of this book 
preceding the Report proper. 

Noted also with extreme regret is the passing of Mrs. Charles H. 
Schweppe, well-known philanthropist, whose interest in Field 
Museum prompted her gift to the institution of the triad of figures 
called the “‘Unity of Mankind,” which occupies the center of Chaun- 
cey Keep Memorial Hall. 

Late in the year Miss Kate S. Buckingham died after a long and 
useful life largely dedicated to philanthropic work. Miss Bucking- — 
ham was a Benefactor of Field Museum, having contributed $109,000 — 
as an endowment toward the costs of general operation, and many | 
other gifts. 

The death on May 20 of Dr. Stephen Langdon, Professor of — 
Assyriology at Oxford University, England, was noted with regret — 
at Field Museum. Dr. Langdon had been Director of the Field | 
Museum-—Oxford University Joint Expedition to Mesopotamia from { 
1923 to 1932, and during two seasons of work he personally super- — 
vised the excavations. He was a noted archaeologist whose passing | 
was felt as a severe blow by scholars all over the world. 

While the loss of these many friends of the Museum is a sad blow, 
it is felt that they can be best honored by making every effort to | 
continue at the institution the high ideals for which they lived. 

For the first time since 1933 the Museum showed a substantial | 
increase in attendance. The total figure of 1,290,023 visitors was a 
gain of a little more than 100,000 over the year before. More 
gratifying was the fact that the proportion of paid to total admis- | 
sions increased from less than 6 per cent during 1936 to 7.3 per cent 
during 1937. 

On August 4 the Museum received its twenty millionth visitor | 
since the present building was first opened on May 2, 1921. The 


INTRODUCTION inal 


fortunate visitor, admitted at the north entrance, was John Ladd, a 
youth of fourteen years, whose home is in New York City. In com- 
memoration of this event a certificate of life membership in the 
Museum was presented to him. He was then escorted to the office 
of President Stanley Field, who presented him with a miniature of 
the bronze sculpture by Miss Malvina Hoffman in Chauncey Keep 
Memorial Hall typifying the Vedda of Ceylon. 

The arrival of the twenty millionth visitor emphasized the fact 
that the average attendance in this building has been one and one- 
quarter million persons per year, contrasted with 228,000 annually 
at the former location in Jackson Park occupied by the Museum 
from 1894 to 1920. 


To indicate the progress the institution has made since its found- 
ing, a special exhibit was arranged in Stanley Field Hall during 
August and part of September. This exhibit, by means of graphs, 
charts, photographs, and specimens, made apparent the principal 
developments in many fields which have occurred in the forty-four 
years of the Museum’s existence. 


_ Attendance at the Museum itself does not indicate fully the 
scope of the institution’s service to the general public, as will be 
realized by perusal of other sections of this Report, particularly the 
‘pages devoted to the work of the James Nelson and Anna Louise 
Raymond Foundation for Public School and Children’s Lectures, 
and the Department of the N. W. Harris Public School Extension. 
In those pages will be found details of how the Harris Extension, 
for example (which in November completed its twenty-fifth year of 
service), benefited some 500,000 children by the circulation of nearly 
a thousand traveling exhibits among more than 400 Chicago schools. 
Likewise outlined there are the manifold activities of the Raymond 
Foundation, such as the presentation of spring and autumn series 
of educational motion pictures, the conducting of parties of chil- 
dren on guide-lecture tours of the exhibits, and the sending of 
lecturers into hundreds of school classrooms and assembly halls to 
address large groups of children. Nearly a quarter million children 
were reached by the Raymond Foundation with Museum instruction 
Supplementing their regular studies. 


_ A good example of the special educational service which the 
-Museum constantly seeks to render, especially to children, is worth 
citing here. During the International Live Stock Exposition held 
-at the Union Stock Yards in Chicago in December, the Museum 
/co-operated with authorities of the exposition and the National 


172 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPoORTS, VOL. XI 


Four-H Club Congress. As a result, enthusiastic groups totaling 
610 girls and 742 boys from American farms, delegates to the Four-H 
Congress, were brought on visits to Field Museum. They were con- 
ducted on tours of the exhibits by members of the Staff of the 
James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation. Following 
their visits, there was received a flood of letters from these children 
and youths expressing appreciation for the entertainment and in- 
struction provided by the Museum and its Staff. These letters came 
from many widely separated states, ranging from Maryland on the 
Atlantic Coast to Oregon on the Pacific, and from Montana near the 
Canadian border to Texas near the Mexican boundary. 


In the field of adult education, the Museum presented its usual 
spring and autumn courses of illustrated lectures in the James 
Simpson Theatre, and its daily guide-lecture tours of exhibits. In 
addition, a series of special Sunday guide-lecture tours constituted 
an innovation of the year. Statistics and other details regarding 
these activities will be found elsewhere in this Report. 


The influence of the Museum was spread further by the Library, 
the effectiveness of which was augmented by acquisitions of new 
books and periodicals through gifts, exchanges and purchases. The 
Library’s resources in scientific literature for reference purposes are 
becoming better known, and increasing use of its collection, now 
numbering more than 110,000 volumes, was made by the general 
public in 1937. To the Staff of the Museum, and to other scientists 
and students of Chicago and vicinity, the Library, of course, is — 
indispensable. | 


Valuable reference material, for teachers, students, and others | 
engaged in various forms of research, was provided also by the — 
study collections maintained for this purpose in each of the scientific 
Departments of the Museum. As in other years, these attracted 
many users. 


As has been pointed out in past Annual Reports, there is also a — 
vast public the extent of which it is impossible to gauge in statistics, — 
but which must number hundreds of thousands, or even millions of 
persons, who are reached by published accounts of Museum activi- 
ties. These include not only those who have access to the publica- — 
tions and leaflets issued and distributed from Field Museum Press, | 
and the monthly bulletin Field Museum News, but also the untold ( 
numbers who read articles about the institution in daily newspapers | 
and periodicals the world over, and who hear radio programs | 
which the Museum is publicized. qi 


INTRODUCTION 173 


Throughout the year the story of the accomplishments of Field 
Museum was kept constantly before the public through the generous 
co-operation of the Chicago newspapers and the radio stations of 
the city. The volume of the published accounts of the Museum’s 
activities was greater than had been attained for many years. 


During 1937 Field Museum, for the first time, used the radio in 
a carefully planned program to carry the message of a natural history 
museum to the people of the United States. With the co-operation 
of the University Broadcasting Council, a series of thirteen programs 
was presented on the coast-to-coast network of the Mutual Broad- 
casting System, with station WGN as the outlet in Chicago. These 
broadcasts consisted of dramatizations of expeditions, followed by 
interviews with some of the men prominently associated with each 
enterprise. This entire radio series was made possible by a gift 
from President Stanley Field, who also took an active part in formu- 
lating the plans for the programs. 


Widespread favorable response was attracted by these broad- 
casts, presented under the title ‘““From the Ends of the Earth.” 
Many letters and postcards praising them were received from 
listeners in all parts of the country. The radio critic of Variety, out- 
standing theatrical weekly, in a review of some length characterized 
the programs as “a beautifully produced dramatic production,” 
with ‘faction and human interest to rank it with the top fiction- 
drama programs on the air” although at the same time evidencing 
“absolute authenticity, not only in subject matter of script, but 
even in details such as savages’ drum rhythm.” 


Many visitors were attracted to the Museum by these radio 
programs, most enthusiastic among whom was Robert Kroening, a 
twelve-year-old boy of Kirkwood, Missouri, who traveled the several 
hundred miles from his home to Chicago especially to join one of the 
special lecture-tours offered at the Museum in connection with each 
broadcast. 


In recognition of their various gifts during their lifetimes, and 
their subsequent bequests to the Museum, the late Mr. and Mrs. 
Martin A. Ryerson were posthumously elected as Benefactors of the 
Museum (a designation applied to all whose gifts total $100,000 or 
more) at a meeting of the Board of Trustees held on October 18. 
The gifts of the Ryersons dated from the year 1895 and continued 
intermittently throughout their lives. Mr. Ryerson was a Trustee, 
and First Vice-President of the Museum, from 1894 to 1932. 


174 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Three names were added to the list of Contributors to the Mu- 
seum (a membership classification designating those whose gifts in 
money or materials reach a value between $1,000 and $100,000). 
The new Contributors are Mr. Alfred A. Look, of Grand Junction, 
Colorado, Dr. Wilfred H. Osgood, Chief Curator of the Department 
of Zoology, and the iate Wiliam N. Rumely, of Chicago and 
LaPorte, Indiana. Mr. Look is the donor of valuable additions 
to the paleontological collections, including the skeleton of an im- 
portant fossil mammal new to science. Dr. Osgood personally financed 
and conducted an expedition to French Indo-China during several 
months of 1937, with resulting large and important additions to the 
Museum’s zoological collections. From the Estate of Mr. Rumely 
the Museum received as a gift a meteorite specimen, exceedingly 
rare in type, and of high value. 

Five new Life Members were elected during 1987. They are: 
Mr. Walter J. Cummings, Mrs. Walter P. Hemmens, and Mrs. C. 


Morse Ely, all of Chicago; Mrs. Leslie Wheeler, of Lake Forest, . 


Illinois, and Mr. John Ladd, of New York City. The election of 
Mr. Ladd was honorary, as a result of his having been the twenty 
millionth visitor to enter the present Museum building. 


A list of Members in all classes will be found beginning on page 
276 of this Report. On December 31 the total number of member- 
ships was 4,266 as compared with 4,238 on the same date in the pre- 
ceding year. While the increase was thus only 28, actually more 
than that number of new Members were enrolled, but the net gain 
was reduced by a greater than normal number of losses by deaths 
and cancellations of older Members. 


All Officers who had served the Museum in 1936 were re-elected 
for 1937 at the Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees, held on 
January 19. Due to the death later that same month of Director 
Simms, President Stanley Field appointed Mr. Clifford C. Gregg 
(formerly Assistant to the Director) as Acting Director;and on May 
17, at their regular meeting, the Trustees formally elected Mr. Gregg 
as Director and Secretary of the Museum. No action has been taken 
by the Trustees to fill the two vacancies on the Board caused by the 
deaths of Mr. Simms and Mr. Leslie Wheeler. 


Continued actively throughout 1937 were installations of new 
exhibits, as well as reinstallations and improvements of many of 


those originally placed on display in previous years. Details of these | 


will be found in a section of each of the departmental reports con- 


|

tained in this book; therefore brief reference will be made here to |

only a few of the more important ones. In the Department of 
Zoology there were opened to the public an unusually large number 
of new habitat groups—three of birds and four of mammals, Two 
of these are in Carl E. Akeley Memorial Hall (Hall 22)—a group of 
the tiny African antelopes known as klipspringers, and another of 
the bizarre guereza monkeys of Ethiopia. A habitat group of the 
harbor seals of the Pacific was installed in the Hall of Marine Mam- 
mals (Hall N). To William V. Kelley Hall (Hall 17) there was added 
a group of the Asiatic takin, one of the most difficult of all animals 
to hunt. In the Hall of Birds (Hall 20) the habitat groups completed 
are: birds of the Kalahari Desert, composed of specimens collected 
by the Vernay—Lang Kalahari Expedition (1930) and presented to 
the Museum by Mr. Arthur S. Vernay, of New York and London; 
bird life of Mount Cameroon, and village weaver-birds of Africa. 
The latter two are both composed of specimens collected by the 
Straus West African Expedition of Field Museum (1934), sponsored 
by Mrs. Oscar Straus, of New York. In addition to the habitat 
groups, numerous additions were made to the screens and single 
mounts of mammals, birds, reptiles, and skeletons in the systematic 
collections displayed in various halls. 


The most noteworthy addition to the exhibits in the Department 
of Anthropology consisted of three new cases of jades, containing 
seventy-five pieces, each a masterpiece of color and carving, installed 
in the Hall of Jades (Hall 30). These are part of the extensive col- 
lection of Chinese art objects bequeathed to the Museum by the 
late Mrs. George T. (Frances Ann Gaylord) Smith, of Chicago. 


In Ernest R. Graham Hall (Hall 38), containing the paleontologi- 
eal collections of the Department of Geology, there was installed a 
skeleton of a South American ground sloth designated as Hapalops, 
a name derived from Greek and meaning “gentle face.” 


In the Department of Botany, various additions were made to the 
series of reproductions of plants in the Hall of Plant Life (Hall 29), 
to the economic botany halls, and to the wood collections. In this 
Department, however, the major efforts of the preparators were 
devoted to elaborate habitat groups which will not be completed 
until 1938. 

After an extended lull in expeditionary work because of adverse 
economic conditions, several small expeditions were sent into the 
field during 1937. Of these, the continuation of the project begun in 
1929 for the photographing of type specimens of plants in Europe 
by Mr. J. Francis Macbride, Associate Curator of the Herbarium, 


176 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


was the only one of which the expenses were paid with Museum 
funds. 

Dr. Wilfred H. Osgood, Chief Curator of Zoology, left in January 
for French Indo-China, where he spent several months collecting 
birds, mammals, and reptiles. This expedition netted approximately 
five hundred mammal skins, including a suitable selection for a 
habitat group of gibbons. Another splendid group will result from 
this expedition’s collecting of specimens of the green peacock. 
Before returning to Field Museum, Dr. Osgood completed a trip 
around the world, stopping for several days at the British Museum 
in London en route. The entire cost of this expedition was con- 
tributed by Dr. Osgood from his own funds. 


Dr. Julian A. Steyermark, Assistant Curator of the Herbarium, 
spent the summer in collecting the flora of Missouri, on his own time 
and at his own expense. 

Another staff member to contribute funds of his own toward a 
Museum expedition was Mr. Karl P. Schmidt, Curator of Reptiles, 
who journeyed to western Texas accompanied by Mr. D. Dwight 
Davis, Assistant Curator of Anatomy and Osteology, in search of 
herpetological specimens. 

Through the generosity of President Stanley Field, many mem- 
bers of the Staff were enabled to proceed in search of specimens for 
which a definite need has been felt. Thus Curator Schmidt made 
another expedition, accompanied by Staff Taxidermist Leon L. | 
Walters, to collect reptiles in Arizona and California. Dr. Paul S. | 
Martin, Chief Curator of Anthropology, resumed his archaeological | 
excavations in southwestern Colorado, discovering material which | 
furnishes direct evidence of the migrations of Indian tribes some | 
1,500 years ago. Mr. Llewelyn Williams, Curator of Economic 
Botany, went to Mexico whence he brought a systematic collection | 
of the woods of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and other localities in | 
the states of Oaxaca and Veracruz. Mr. Emmet R. Blake, Assistant 
Curator of Birds, left, early in January for British Guiana, where he 
collected ornithological specimens until early in the summer. He 
then went to Brazil for further collecting and at the close of the year 
was on his way back to Chicago. Mr. Sharat K. Roy, Curator of 
Geology, obtained in Colorado several valuable specimens for the 
exhibits pertaining to structural geology. An expedition to Colorado, | 
led by Mr. Bryan Patterson, Assistant Curator of Paleontology, 
collected specimens of fossil mammals. Mr. J. H. Quinn, Assist- 
ant in Paleontology, accompanied the expedition, and Mr. Elmer 8.

Riggs, Curator of Paleontology, joined the party for a few weeks. 
Mr. Alfred C. Weed, Curator of Fishes, accompanied by Staff 
Taxidermist L. L. Pray, collected fish specimens along the coast of 
Maine for a proposed undersea group. Staff Taxidermist C. J. 
Albrecht, through the co-operation of the United States Biological 
Survey, was enabled to visit the Pribilof Islands, where he collected 
specimens for a complete group of fur seals. Although, under 
government regulations, Mr. Albrecht was not permitted to kill a 
single seal nor to land firearms on the Pribilofs, officials made it 
possible for him to obtain the specimens needed from among the 
animals taken in regular sealing operations. The co-operation of 
the government in this undertaking is sincerely appreciated. 

It is worthy of note that a great deal was accomplished on these 
expeditions with a minimum expenditure of money. This was pos- 
sible because of foresight and skillful planning on the part of the 
expeditionary personnel, and their thorough understanding of 
methods and objectives. 

Gifts of money, and of material for the scientific collections and 
the Library, are herewith gratefully acknowledged. Among those 
who contributed funds during the year may be mentioned the 
following: 

Mrs. Diego Suarez, of New York, gave the sum of $50,000, to be 
used toward payment of general operating expenses of the Museum. 

President Stanley Field contributed sums totaling $37,661.37, to 
be applied, in accordance with his directions, toward the costs of 
constructing built-in exhibition cases in the halls of birds (Halls 20 
and 21), and for the purchase of other cases likewise for zoological 
exhibits; purchase of plate glass required for various cases; con- 
struction of a mezzanine on the fourth floor to augment zoological 
storage facilities, and purchase of storage equipment for this mez- 
zanine; expenses of various expeditions; and the expense involved 
in the presentation of the thirteen radio broadcasts, “‘“From the Ends 
of the Earth.”’ 

Early in the year Mr. Marshall Field contributed $28,750 to be 
used to wipe out an anticipated operating deficit. 

Mrs. James Nelson Raymond was the donor of $6,000 toward 
the operating expenses of the James Nelson and Anna Louise Ray- 
mond Foundation for Public School and Children’s Lectures. This 
was a continuation of her splendid generosity which so often has been 
manifested in the years since 1925, when she established the Raymond 
Foundation by providing a large endowment fund. 


178 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPoORTS, VOL. XI 


Mr. H. Boardman Conover, Research Associate in the Division 
of Birds, presented $400 toward the expenses of the zoological 
expedition to Brazil conducted during the year by Assistant Curator 
Emmet R. Blake. 

From Mr. Henry J. Patten, of Lake Forest, Illinois, a gift of 
$250 was received. Other sums of varying amounts were received 
as contributions from Mrs. Hermon Dunlap Smith, of Lake Forest; 
Mrs. Leslie Wheeler, of Lake Forest; Mr. Edward L. Dawes, of 
Chicago; Mr. Clarence B. Mitchell, of Chicago; Mr. Benjamin L. 
Bolling, of Mason City, Iowa; Mr. William J. Weldon, of Chicago; 
and Mr. H. F. Johnson, Jr., of Racine, Wisconsin. 


A substantial, but as yet undetermined, sum will accrue to the 
Museum as a result of the bequests, previously mentioned, from the 
late Mr. and Mrs. Martin A. Ryerson. The estates are still in 
process of administration, and a definite figure regarding the amount 
of the bequests is therefore not yet available. 

A fellowship grant of $500 was received from the Carnegie 
Corporation, New York, to pay traveling expenses for Mr. Sharat K. 
Roy, Curator of Geology, on a trip to other American scientific 
institutions for purposes of research. 


The death of Miss Kate S. Buckingham, who in 1925 had estab- 
lished an endowment of $100,000, releases the Museum of its obli- | 
gation to pay an annuity of $5,500. In future the income of this 
fund will be used for general operating purposes. 


| 
| 

By a payment of $20,375.80 to the Northern Trust Company — 
the Museum reduced to $36,000 its indebtedness to that bank. | 

From the Chicago Park District the Museum received, as its 
share, authorized by the state legislature, of collections made during © 
1937 under the tax levies fer 1936 and preceding years, sums aggre- © 
gating $92,122.69. . 

In the departmental sections of this Report, and in the complete © 
List of Accessions beginning on page 254, will be found details of the 
many gifts of material for the collections received by the Museum | 
during the year. A few outstanding ones have been selected for | 
mention here, as follows: : 

A star sapphire, valued at $1,550, was received from Mrs. William | 
J. Chalmers, of Chicago. 

An iron meteorite of the rare hexahedrite type, valued at $1,500, — 
was presented by the Estate of the late William N. Rumely, of 
Chicago, through Mr. Richard L. Rumely, son of the original owner. |

The Polish-American Chamber of Commerce in Warsaw, with 
the Polish government co-operating, presented specimens of white 
storks, with a nest and other accessory material for the creation of 
a habitat group in the Hall of Birds (Hall 20). The Museum is 
indebted to Dr. Waclaw Gawronski, Consul-General of Poland in 
Chicago, and Mr. Jerzy Bojanowski, an official of the Consulate, for 
making arrangements for the collection of the birds and accessories. 
Further, through the co-operation of the Polish-American Chamber 
of Commerce, the Polish Government, the Consulate-General, and a 
large number of individuals and scientific institutions both in this 
country and Poland, a collection of varied specimens for all Depart- 
ments was received. This material was brought from Poland by Mr. 
Anthony Mazur, an employe of the Museum, who himself con- 
tributed toward the collection. 

From Messrs. Spencer W. Stewart and Robert J. Sykes, of New 
York, the Museum received the skin of a whale shark taken at 
Acapulco, Mexico. This animal represents what is probably the 
largest living species of fish-like creatures, reaching a size equal to or 
greater than that of some of the smaller whales. 

Mr. Leon Mandel, of Chicago, as a result of West Indian cruises 
on his yacht Buccaneer, presented the Museum with specimens of 

“wahoo fish’”’ (Acanthocybiwm petus), flying fish, other marine in- 
habitants, valuable birds, and a rare lizard. Mr. Rudyerd Boulton, 
Curator of Birds, was a guest on one of these cruises, and participated 


7 


In the collecting. 


An important collection of leaves, flowers and fruits of palms 
| gathered in the Amazon region was received as a gift from Mr. H. F. 
Johnson, Jr., of Racine, Wisconsin. Some of the leaves are as much 
_as thirty-five feet long, and clusters of fruit weigh as much as one 
hundred pounds. 
| Mr. Michael Lerner, of New York, presented a mounted specimen 
of blue marlin, otherwise known as “‘sword fish,” which will make a 
‘valued addition to the exhibits planned for the hall of fishes (Hall O). 
The specimen, caught by Mr. Lerner at Bimini, Bahama Islands, 
is of record size, and weighed 537 pounds. 
| As for a number of years past, the John G. Shedd Aquarium, the 
Lincoln Park Zoo, the Chicago Zoological Society, and the General 
Biological Supply House, of Chicago, all contributed numerous 
valuable zoological specimens to the Museum. 
Among distinguished visitors entertained at Field Museum in 
| 1937 were: Dr. Oswald Menghin, Professor of Prehistoric Archaeology

Millar, who had been on the staff of the Department of Botany since 
1918, was transferred to the Department of the N. W. Harris Public 
School Extension, where he was appointed Acting Curator. Mr. A. L. 
Stebbins was appointed Bookkeeper. 

Changes were made in a number of the titles of Staff members, 
in order better to designate their duties, as follows: Mr. C. Martin 
Wilbur, from Curator of Sinology to Curator of Chinese Archaeology 
and Ethnology; Mr. Edmund N. Gueret and Mr. D. Dwight Davis 
from Curator and Assistant Curator respectively of Invertebrate 
Skeletons, to Curator and Assistant Curator respectively of Anat- 


omy and Osteology; Mrs. Mary W. Baker, from Assistant Librarian 


to Associate Librarian, and Mr. A. A. Miller from Photogravurist 
to Collotyper. The title Public Relations Counsel was adopted for 
Mr. H. B. Harte of the Division of Public Relations. 


Under the provisions of the Field Museum Employes’ Pension 
Fund, insurance was paid in the amounts indicated to the following 
beneficiaries of employes and pensioners who died during 19387: 
$6,000 to Mrs. Stephen C. Simms, widow of the late Director Simms; 
$4,000 to the widow of Mr. Thomas J. Larkin, former Museum 
guard; and $3,000 to four sons of Mr. Burchard Tiemann, a former 


- employe of the Museum’s Division of Printing. Mr. John Buettner, 
_ preparator-carpenter in the N. W. Harris Public School Extension, 
retired from active service and was placed on the pension roll. 


Mr. Henry Field, Curator of Physical Anthropology, received 


the degree of doctor of science from Oxford University in June. He 


_ went to England and participated in the ceremonies connected with 


conferring of this honor. The degree is in recognition of Dr. Field’s 


vast amount of research conducted at Field Museum, the work he 


_ performed on several expeditions for this institution, and the many 
- comprehensive scientific reports he has written and had published 
_ by Field Museum Press. 


Members of the Museum Staff engaged in various scientific 


research projects, outlined in the departmental sections of this 


Report, and attended a number of important meetings of learned 
societies during the year. Assistant Curator Julian A. Steyermark 
presented a botanical paper at the meeting of the American Associ- 


ation for the Advancement of Science held in December at Indianap- 


olis, Indiana. Dr. Paul S. Martin, Chief Curator of Anthropology, 


attended the meeting of the Academy of Natural Sciences in Phila- 


delphia in March, and presented a report on the Field Museum 


_ Archaeological Expedition to the Southwest at the meetings of the 


182 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPoRTs, VOL. XI 


American Anthropological Association held at Yale University in 
December. Dr. Martin also visited a number of eastern museums 
for purposes of study. Curator C. Martin Wilbur presented a paper 
on a phase of Chinese archaeology at the meeting of the American 
Oriental Society held at Cleveland, Ohio, March 31 to April 2; 
Curator Richard A. Martin attended the same meeting. Curator 
Rudyerd Boulton attended the convention of the American Orni- 
thologists’ Union held at Charleston, South Carolina, in November. 
Later Mr. Boulton began a visit of several weeks in the east to make 
special studies on the taxonomy and distribution of the birds of 
Angola (Portuguese West Africa), working principally at the Ameri- 
can Museum of Natural History, New York, and the Carnegie 
Museum of Pittsburgh. Mr. Elmer S. Riggs, Curator of Paleon- 
tology, attended conferences of the Geological Society of America, 
and the Paleontological Society of America, at Washington, D.C., 
in December. Curator Colin C. Sanborn made an eastern trip 
during the course of which he attended the meeting of the American 
Society of Mammalogists held at Washington, D.C., in the spring, 
and engaged in studies at Boston and New York scientific institu- 
tions. Curator Sharat K. Roy spent several weeks in studies at 
eastern museums and universities to collect data for a forthcoming — 
monograph on the geology and paleontology of southeastern Baffin — 
Land, completing research in which he was engaged as a member of — 


the Second Rawson—Macmillan Expedition to the Subarctie (1927- | 


28). His traveling expenses were provided by a fellowship awarded | 
by the Carnegie Corporation, New York. | 


Mr. Karl P. Schmidt, Curator of Reptiles, has been elected — 
Herpetological Editor of Copeia, quarterly journal of the American | 
Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists. Conducting this — 
work in addition to his activities at the Museum, he is kept in close 
contact with fellow scientists all over the world. 


Director Clifford C. Gregg, in the course of a western trip during — 
the summer, camped with two of the Museum’s expeditions in the 
field, and participated in their work. He first visited the site of — 
operations of the Field Museum Paleontological Expedition to | 
Colorado, and afterwards joined the members of the Field Museum | 
Archaeological Expedition to the Southwest. Following reconnais- — 
sance at the latter site, he traveled with the expedition leader, Dr. i 
Paul S. Martin, Chief Curator of Anthropology, to Mesa Verde’ 
National Park, the Laboratory of Anthropology at Santa Fe, New 
Mexico, Gila Pueblo at Globe, Arizona, and the excavations at : 


INTRODUCTION 183 


Jeddito, Arizona, of an expedition dispatched by the Peabody Mu- 
seum of Harvard University under the leadership of Mr. J. O. Brew. 
These visits resulted in contacts of value in continuing the cordial 
co-operation existing between Field Museum and various institu- 
tions and individuals. Mr. Gregg later went alone for similar pur- 
poses to the Colorado Museum of Natural History in Denver, and 
the Museum of the University of Iowa at lowa City. The visits of 
the Director to the Museum’s expeditions served to establish closer 
contact between the executive offices and the men engaged in the 
institution’s extra-mural activities, and it is hoped to continue this 
practice in future. 

On December 2, at the time of the reopening of the Hall of Jades 
(Hall 30) with the addition of a collection bequeathed by the late 
Mrs. George T. (Frances Ann Gaylord) Smith, a special lecture on 

_jades was given in the Museum’s small lecture hall by Mr. C. Martin 
Wilbur, Curator of Chinese Archaeology and Ethnology. The lec- 
ture was illustrated with natural color stereopticon slides made 

_and presented to Field Museum by Mr. Clarence B. Mitchell. The 
audience was composed of members of the American Friends of 
China, and others especially interested in Oriental art. 


/ Members of the Museum and their guests, and invited groups from 
garden clubs and universities, attended a special showing of colored 
‘motion pictures, still photographs, and water color paintings of 
flowers of Panama, in the James Simpson Theatre on November 8. 
The pictures were the work of Mrs. H. H. Evans, of Balboa Heights, 
Canal Zone, who gave a lecture in connection with them. 


| Attention should be called to the splendid and effective work 
‘being done at Field Museum by a loyal and earnest group of volun- 
teer workers. For many years Dr. E. E. Sherff and Mr. H. Board- 
'man Conover have been identified with Field Museum as accom- 
plished Research Associates in the fields of systematic botany and 
ornithology respectively. During the present year five other volun- 
teers have joined the Staff in various capacities. 


Mr. Clarence B. Mitchell, an Associate of the Royal Photographic 
Society, has for several months been carrying on experiments at the 
Museum in the field of natural color photography. Through this 
‘medium he has prepared a series of stereopticon slides featuring rare 
and beautiful jades selected from the Museum’s collection. The 
fidelity with which color, texture, and finish have been portrayed 
has won wide commendation from art lovers throughout the city. 
Mr. Mitchell, as Research Associate in Photography on the Museum 


184 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Staff, is continuing his work in other difficult fields among the 
institution’s collections. 

Mr. Paul G. Dallwig, at a great expenditure of time and money, 
has prepared a series of lectures which he, as the ““Layman Lecturer,” 
offers free to the public on Sunday afternoons. These lectures are 
given in the halls of the Museum and present the story of certain 
sections of the exhibits in such a fascinating manner that the attend- 
ance has been more than could be accommodated, necessitating the © 
requirement of advance registrations by participants. The limit, 
set at 100 persons for each lecture, has been reached repeatedly. At 
times reservations must be made as much as four weeks in advance. 

Mrs. Hermon Dunlap (Ellen Thorne) Smith, of Lake Forest, 
Illinois, has been active for many months as Associate in the Division 
of Ornithology. Starting with limited knowledge of birds but a real 
desire for accomplishment in this field of study, she has rapidly 
progressed to a point where her services are highly regarded by her © 
associates on the Staff of the Department of Zoology. 

In the Department of Anthropology, Mrs. Edna Horn Mandel 
joined the Staff as an Associate because of her deep interest and wide 
knowledge in the field of Chinese art. At Field Museum she has 
given splendid service in describing, classifying, and cataloguing a — 
diversified collection of paintings, and many rubbings taken from — 
monuments of archaeological interest. 

Miss Elizabeth McM. Hambleton has given valuable aid in the | 
classification of early Pueblo pottery. As an Associate on the Staff 
she has been particularly useful in the study of the collections 
brought to the Museum from the Southwest. 

In the number of copies of publications produced, and in the 
quantity of other miscellaneous matter printed, Field Museum — 
; 


eae 


Press exceeded even its 1936 productivity, which had been the | 
largest in the history of the Museum. Elsewhere in this Report, — 
under the heading “Division of Printing,” will be found a complete — 
list of the publications issued. Information concerning the diy 
tribution of these, nationally and internationally, will be found | 
under the heading ‘‘Division of Publications.”’ 

To the list of books published under auspices other than those of 
Field Museum, but sold at this institution, two new titles were added. — 
One of these is Ecological Animal Geography, translated by Curator — 
Karl P. Schmidt from an original work in German by Dr. Richard | 
Hesse of the University of Berlin. In revision of the translated book | 
Mr. Schmidt had as his associate Dr. W. C. Allee, Professor of | 


INTRODUCTION 185 


Ecology at the University of Chicago. The publisher is John Wiley 
and Sons, New York. The other new title on this list is Su-Lin, a 
story for children about the young giant panda at the Brookfield 
zoological park of the Chicago Zoological Society. Ruth Ann 
Waring and Helen Wells are the authors; Rand MeNally and 
Company, Chicago, is the publisher. 

Six small books for children known as “The Footprint Series,” 
with texts based entirely on material in Field Museum, and written 
by Mr. H. B. Harte, the Museum’s Public Relations Counsel, 

were adopted during 1937 by the Chicago Board of Education as 
reading material recommended to teachers to supplement regular 
textbooks. They are illustrated with pictures of habitat groups of 
animals at the Museum. The Orthovis Company, Chicago, is 
_ publisher. 
The number of men and women employed by the Works Progress 
_ Administration on the project at Field Museum during 1937 ranged 
from 167 to 199. Their aggregate working time amounted to 240,000 
hours, and the total amount of wages paid to them by the federal 
_ government was $174,200. It is interesting to note in comparison 
that the regular employes of Field Museum totaled about 160. 


| Although the efforts of the WPA workers have been utilized 

_ chiefly in routine tasks such as cataloguing, typing, filing, cleaning 
specimens, mounting photographs, and assisting in the manufacture. 
of accessory material for groups, there have also been many persons 
_who possessed scientific training and knowledge qualifying them for 
/more important undertakings. It follows naturally that because of 
_ the co-operation of this organization the Museum has been far better 
| able to serve the people of Chicago and the world. A great deal of 
scientific material held in storage for many years has been properly 
cleaned and prepared so as to be available for exhibition and study. 
More scientific reports have been published and distributed to 
| institutions around the world as a result of WPA assistance in the 
_ Division of Printing and the Division of Publications. 


Much of the effect of adverse economic conditions on the Museum 

has been counteracted by the activity of the WPA workers. The 
value and importance of their accomplishments can scarcely be 
emphasized sufficiently. They have undertaken tasks that could 
not have been attempted for many years by the regular staff of 
_ the institution, as every staff member has been, and is, fully occupied 
and unable to assume additional burdens. It should be noted that 
in no case has a regular Museum employe been displaced by a WPA 


) ; 


186 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


worker. The entire effect of the opportunity provided by the assign- 
ment of WPA workers has been one of expansion of Museum acti- 
vities, and not in the least a substitution of personnel. WPA officials 
in charge of assignments and supervision have given the Museum 
a wholehearted co-operation which is deeply appreciated, and the 
project has been characterized by marked efficiency and smoothness 
of operation. 

Field Museum was again host, as it has been each year since 1922, 
to the Art Research Classes conducted in co-operation with the Art 
Institute of Chicago. The same instructor who originated this work, 
Mr. John Gilbert Wilkins, a member of the faculty of the School of 
the Art Institute, was again in charge. Exhibits in Field Museum 
are used by students in these classes as suggestive material for their 
creations in charcoal, crayons, water-colors, oils, and plastics. Mem- 
bers of the classes are advanced students, and many graduates have 
become successful designers, illustrators, teachers, and creative 
painters and sculptors. The Saturday School of the Art Institute 
also continued to send classes of young children as for the past 
several years. The pupils in these range from children of the fourth 
elementary grade to those of high school age. 


Despite long illness of the Superintendent of Maintenance, the - 
Museum building and equipment were maintained in good order 
under the supervision of the Chief Engineer. Details of some of the | 
more notable improvements during the year are outlined herewith: — 


For the Department of Anthropology fifteen exhibition cases | 
were remodeled to accommodate material to be shown in Hall K on | 
the ground floor, which is to be devoted to archaeological collections © 
from Kish resulting from the Field Museum—Oxford University | 
Joint Expedition to Mesopotamia. A plaster frieze of enlarged im- — 
pressions from Babylonian and other ancient seal cylinders was | 
installed on the walls of the same hall. Two new exhibition cases | 
were built for the jade exhibits in Hall 30, ‘and one new case for the © 
exhibition of flints in Hall B. On the third floor improved hehe | 
was installed in the office of the Chief Curator. 


For the Department of Botany a built-in exhibition case for the | 
accommodation of a habitat group of alpine plants of the Rocky 
Mountains (in preparation) was completed in the Hall of Plant 
Life (Hall 29). Two more mural paintings of exotic plants were | 
installed on the walls of the same hall. In the Herbarium on the 
third floor, eight large new storage cases were provided. 


INTRODUCTION 187 


For the Department of Geology a new exhibition case was pro- 
vided for the reinstallation of the model of the Natural Bridge of 
Virginia. A new exhibition screen was furnished for material added 
to Ernest R. Graham Hall (Hall 38). On the third floor a partition 
was removed between Rooms 105 and 106 in order to provide more 
extensive working quarters for certain members of the Staff. In 
the chemical laboratory a new exhaust fan was installed for remov- 
ing fumes. 


For the Department of Zoology two new wall cases were installed 
and equipped, one each in Halls 19 and 21. Seven cases were com- 
pleted for the exhibition of marine invertebrates. New cases were 
provided in Carl E. Akeley Memorial Hall (Hall 22) for the okapi 
and guereza monkey exhibits. The sable antelope exhibit in the 
same hall was relocated. A new screen was provided for the lemur 
exhibit in Hall 15. Ten built-in cases were constructed for the 
accommodation of habitat groups of birds in Hall 20, and six for 
fish habitat groups in Hall O. The groundwork was prepared for 
the habitat group of Asiatic takin which was opened during the year 
in William V. Kelley Hall (Hall 17). All exhibition cases were treated 
with preservative poison. Various improvements were made in the 
Department's offices and workshops on the third and fourth floors. 
_A large wall bookcase was installed in Room 90. Twelve especially 
‘designed packing cases for the shipment of specimens were con- 
structed for expeditions which the Department had in the field during 
the year. By building walls around surplus space in one of the cor- 
‘ridors a new room was provided for the storage of eggshell speci- 
‘mens. Eighteen steel cases, complete with trays, were installed for 
‘the storage of mounted insects. New steel cases were provided for 
the storage of alcoholic specimens in certain Divisions. Eight 
‘storage cases were installed on the east side of the fourth floor for 
‘the study collection of birds, and sixty-seven storage trays were 
also provided. 
_ An extensive project, undertaken to enlarge and improve storage 
facilities for the study collections of the Department of Zoology, was 
practically completed by the end of the year. This involved the 
‘construction of a mezzanine thirteen and one-half feet wide on the 
west side of the fourth floor, extending from the taxidermy shop to 
the paint shop, a distance of 280 feet, and the installation of an 
additional series of 123 large steel storage cases, bringing the total 
number of cases in this location to 249. This important improve- 
_Mment was made possible through the generosity of President Stanley 


188 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Field. By it the storage facilities on the fourth floor are approxi- 
mately doubled, and it is estimated that accommodations are thus 
provided for all zoological accessions which are likely to be received 
during the next ten years. The cases are of a type suitable for 
storage of birds, small mammals, bones, and alcoholic specimens 
of reptiles. 

A large new table was made for the reading room of the Library. A 
book-binders’ press in the Division of Printing was rebuilt. Through- 
out the building window screens which required it were overhauled. 
A new double door was installed in the corridor at the west end of 
Hall K. The room provided for student guards was enlarged and 
rearranged. 

In the James Simpson Theatre, sound motion picture projection 
equipment was installed. A beaded screen and fan blowers for the 
cooling of stereopticon slides were installed in the small lecture hall, 
this equipment having been presented to the Museum by Mr. 
Clarence B. Mitchell. To prevent seepage of light into this hall the 
windows were blocked up. 

Electrical work included the wiring of fifteen cases for Hall K, 
seven cases for Hall O, and also a built-in case in the latter. Eleven 
new electrical outlets were installed for wall cases in Hall 21. Electrie 
clocks were installed in the cafeteria and in the fourth floor taxidermy — 
shop. Nine electrically operated water coolers were installed in — 
various parts of the building. A new clutch was installed on the — 
planer in room 38 (one of the third floor workshops of the Depart- — 
ment of Anthropology). New brake controls were installed on the 
passenger elevator. | 

Due to the rearrangement of the automobile drives passing the | 
Museum, it was necessary to lay 125 feet of new eight-inch cast iron 
water main under the west drive. Steam return lines in Hall O were 
considerably altered on account of the construction of new exhibi- | 
tion cases. 

A large number of exhibition cases, including all those in Stanley _ 
Field Hall and Hall J (the Egyptian Hall) were lifted and cleaned, | 
and many cases in various halls of the Department of Zoology © 
were opened and cleaned. Eleven cases were temporarily installed | 
in Stanley Field Hall. | 

The walls of twelve halls, five offices, four corridors, and the . 
entrance to the James Simpson Theatre, were washed and starched. | 
Considerable painting was done, especially in Hall K, the south © 
corridor of the ground floor, the third floor shop of the Division of | 


DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY 189 


Printing, and the ground floor carpenter and other shops of the 
Division of Maintenance. In the Division of Printing partitions 
were erected to create a new office for the head of the Division. Four 
downspouts to conduct water off the roof were repaired. Six aisle 
lights were made for the Simpson Theatre. 

Rooms 106 and 108 on the third floor were fitted up as a photo- 
graphic studio for the use of Mr. Clarence B. Mitchell, Research 
Associate in Photography, who is engaged at the Museum in the 
making of natural color pictures of various exhibits. 

The brick work on all boilers was overhauled; a feed water meter 
was installed; a zoning damper was installed on the No. 2 boiler; 
the coal conveyor was overhauled and equipped with new slides 
and buckets; and the sump pump rotor in the boiler room was 
repaired. A saving of several hundred dollars was accomplished by 
using boiler compound prepared by the Museum’s own engineering 
force. A number of additional radiators were installed for heating 
in various parts of the building. 

Under the contracts in force for a number of years, the Museum’s 
heating plant continued to furnish steam required by the John G. 
Shedd Aquarium and Soldier Field, 13,930,834 pounds of steam 
being furnished to the former, and 8,767,997 to the latter. 

The Museum again benefited by favorable rates for electrical 


~ eurrent under the ‘‘peak load contract’”’ which has been in effect with 


the Commonwealth Edison Company for several years. This con- 
tract imposes certain restrictions on the use of electric light and 


_ power during the period from November 1 to February 28. 


Reports in detail of the year’s activities in each of the Museum’s 


_ Departments and Divisions will be found in the pages which follow: 


DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY 
EXPEDITIONS AND RESEARCH 


Archaeological field work in southwestern Colorado, suspended 


since 1934, was resumed, in 1937, under the leadership of Chief 


Curator Paul S. Martin. The expedition was financed through 


_ the generosity of President Stanley Field. 


Mr. Carl T. Lloyd, of Harvard University, was in charge of 
photography and the archaeological reconnaissance, and Mr. Alex- 
ander Spoehr, of the University of Chicago, of the surveying and 
excavating. The Museum gratefully acknowledges the work done 
by three volunteer assistants: Mr. Charles Di Peso, Mr. Frank 


190 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Gregg, and Mr. John Harpham. Acknowledgment is likewise due 
to Mr. and Mrs. Clyde D. Long, of Ackmen, who kindly permitted 
the expedition again to use their ranch for camp headquarters; and 
to Mr. Ben Williford, of Ackmen, who allowed the excavation of four 
ruins on his ranch. The Museum also wishes to thank Mr. B. L. 
Bolling, of Mason City, Iowa, for his co-operation. 

In previous years Dr. Martin had excavated in this region one 
large site, known as the Lowry Ruin, and various smaller ones known 
as unit-type houses. This work shed some light on the cultural 
history of the area during the period from about A.D. 950 to 1100. 
But nothing was known about the earlier history of this locality. 


It was Dr. Martin’s aim, therefore, during the 1937 season, to 
excavate various small ruins and seek clews concerning the earlier 
history of the region. An intensive survey of the Ackmen-Lowry 
area was first undertaken. The first three weeks were entirely 
devoted to this task; later, it was continued intermittently. In 
order to obtain significant data which could be handled quanti- 
tatively and which could be fairly compared, it was considered 


necessary to do two things: (1) to cover practically every square - 


foot of ground in the area being examined, collecting 100 sherds from 
every ruin; and (2) to work equal land areas. If these two rules were 
observed, the survey would be made objective, ignoring the unproven 
idea that the Indians preferred certain topographic conditions for 
their habitations. Furthermore, by surveying equal areas of land in 
each section of a township, one would obtain data which could be 
handled quantitatively, and could, by all rules, be fairly compared. 
As lack of time made it impossible to survey complete township 
sections, such thorough activity was restricted to the northwest and 
the southeast quarters of each section. In this way sixteen and one- 
fourth square miles in the Ackmen-Lowry region were carefully 
examined, and 180 sites in all were discovered. Mr. Lloyd’s report 
on this work will be published with Dr. Martin’s. 


The survey, to which a theoretical approach was worked out, 


produced a number of interesting problems. This may have many 


ramifications and result in a definite contribution to survey methods. 

After devoting three weeks to survey work, some excavations 
were started on what appeared to be sites of the periods designated 
by archaeologists as “‘Pueblo I’’ or “Pueblo II’’ sites. 


Site 1 consisted of a slab structure and an associated proto-kiva 


or pit house. There was no way of telling whether the pit structure 
was used for ceremonies, for habitation, or for both. The roof of 


az 


DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY 191 


the kiva-pit house was supported by four posts set in the floor. A 
low bench encircled a part of the outer zone. A sipapu or hole in 
the floor through which communication with the spirits was believed 
possible, as well as a rectangular firepit, and a ventilator, were 
discovered. No deflector was observed. 

The slab structure was small (about six feet wide), and may have 
been used for storage purposes. Fragments of masonry were found 
on top of some of the slabs. 

Just north of the slab house, a number of postholes were dis- 
covered. These were used for holding posts which may have formed 
a lean-to, the purpose of which is unknown. 


Site I may possibly be classified as Pueblo I or developmental 
Pueblo. 


Site 2 included a proto-kiva and two surface rooms. This proto- 
kiva contained a masonry banquette, on which were crude stone 
pilasters. The walls above the banquette were of dirt. Neither 
sipapu nor deflector was noted. 


The walls of the above-ground rooms were of exceedingly crude 
horizontal masonry. The stones were of all sizes and were not cut, 
shaped, or trimmed in any manner. It cannot be stated definitely 
whether or not these rooms were used for habitation. They were 
large enough certainly. 


Site 3, which appeared more like an early unit-type pueblo, 
consisted of four rooms and probably two kivas. One kiva was 
excavated. It was “‘primitive’’ in some ways, for the walls were of 
earth and a bench was lacking; but on the south was a typical 
southern recess such as was so common in later unit-type and Mesa 
Verde kivas. The roof was supported by four posts. A deflector 
in the normal position was noted, but no sipapu. 


The walls of the rooms were composed of horizontal masonry, - 
and were the best found during the season. It is possible that these 
rooms were used for domiciliary purposes. 


Site 4 was, most likely, cccupied twice, the first occupation 
representing a culture older probably than any other found during 
the season. The original complex comprised two unconnected, 
wattle-and-daub structures, and a proto-kiva. The proto-kiva was 
nearly round. The roof had been supported by five posts, and no 
defiector or sipapu was noted. 


As the proto-kiva later had been cleaned out, enlarged and 
reoccupied, it is difficult to decide whether it was associated during 


192 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPorRTS, VOL. XI 


its first occupation with the two wattle-and-daub rooms. The 
people who later occupied it added a mud bench on which were 
placed six masonry pilasters, and some masonry in the wall around 
the ventilator tunnel. At the same time, the size of the ventilator 
opening was reduced. 

The method used in excavating was as follows: Each site was 
staked out in two-meter squares. Digging was done by squares and 
by levels, each level being 20 centimeters deep. 

A report on the work of this expedition is being prepared by Dr. 
Martin for publication early in 1938. 

At the Museum, Curator Albert B. Lewis finished research 
necessary for installing material from Korea, Japan, eastern Siberia, 
Ceylon, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and India for Hall K during 
the early part of the year. 

Curator Richard A. Martin spent most of the year cleaning, 
cataloguing, and sketching specimens from Kish and in research 
upon them. Under his supervision several hundred pieces of Sasanian 
stucco were restored, and their installation is now in progress. 

Curator Henry Field continued his leave of absence, begun in 
1936, until June, 1937, in order to attend Harvard University where 
he took two courses in physical anthropology under Dr. E. A. 
Hooton. There he also prepared statistical data for publication in © 
reports on the physical anthropology of the peoples of Iraq, iran, — 
and Georgia (U.S.S.R.). In addition, he has almost completed his | 
report, Contributions to the Anthropology of Iran, which is scheduled | 
for publication in 19388. 

The degree of doctor of science was conferred upon Curator Field | 
in June by Oxford University, in recognition of his published research | 
work on the physical anthropology and prehistory of southwestern ) 
Asia, and his monograph, Arabs of Central Iraq, Their History, Eth- | 
nology, and Physical Characters, published by Field Museum Press. | 
Curator Field went to England to receive the degree. | 

Curator Wilfrid D. Hambly spent most of the year supervising | 


oe 


the publication of his Source Book for African Anthropology. Dr. 
Hambly also continued anthropometric work on a large series of 
skulls from New Guinea. This collection was made by Dr. Albert B. I 
Lewis, leader of the Joseph N. Field Expedition (1910-13). A 
beginning was made with the study and statistical treatment of | } 
anthropometric data collected by Curator Hambly among men of | 
the Ovimbundu tribe of Angola, during the Frederick H. Rawson— 
Field Museum Ethnological Expedition to West Africa (1929-30). i

Curator C. Martin Wilbur catalogued the collection of nearly 
seven hundred Chinese art objects bequeathed to the Museum by 
Mrs. George T. (Frances Ann Gaylord) Smith. The jades in this 
collection were placed on exhibition in the Hall of Jades (Hall 30). 

Editorial work was completed by Mr. Wilbur on one of the manu- 
scripts left unfinished by the late Dr. Berthold Laufer, former 
Curator of Anthropology. The outline of an analytic index of the 
extensive Chinese collections was drawn up, and the indexing was 
completed, under Mr. Wilbur’s guidance, by Mrs. Arthur Willis, 
junior archaeologist assigned to the Museum by the Works Progress 
Administration. 

Mrs. Edna Horn Mandel, Associate on the Chinese Collections, 
engaged in a volunteer project for the systematic study of Field 
Museum’s collection of Chinese paintings, with Mr. Wilbur co- 
operating. An important preliminary phase of this project was the 
planning and construction of an adequate yet simple storage case, 
designed by Mrs. Mandel, for several hundred paintings of various 
dimensions. Mrs. Mande! also devised and established a clever cata- 
loguing system especially adapted to Chinese paintings and rubbings. 

Mr. Wilbur assisted Mr. Clarence B. Mitchell, Research Associate 
in Photography, in the selection of Chinese jades for photographing 
in full natural color. Mr. Mitchell’s photographs are of superb 
quality, and will be of great use and value to the Museum for 
purposes of record, lectures, publicity, and other uses. 

Invaluable aid has been rendered the Department by Miss 
Elizabeth McM. Hambleton, Associate in Southwestern Archaeology. 
Miss Hambleton has catalogued several large collections of south- 
western pottery, has classified and computed the percentages on 
more than 15,000 pieces of pottery from the 1937 Expedition to 
Southwestern Colorado, has compiled these data statistically and 
graphically, and has edited and rewritten portions of reports sub- 
mitted for publication. 

Among the anthropological publications issued during the year 
by Field Museum Press were Skeletal Material from San José Ruin, 
British Honduras, and A Source Book for African Anthropology, both 
by Curator Wilfrid D. Hambly. Dr. Hambly has worked on the 
text of the latter book, which is in two large volumes, since 1930. It 
offers a comprehensive survey of the ethnology, archaeology, physical 
anthropology, and modern social problems of Africa. Such a text- 
book and work of reference has been needed for teaching institutions, 
museums, and public libraries for many years. The publication con- 


194 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


tains 111 illustrations, five maps, and a large bibliography, which is 
classified by authors and subjects. The text, bibliographies, and 
indexes fill almost a thousand pages. 


Also published were Textiles of the Early Nazca Period, by Dr. 
Lila M. O’Neale, and Canete Valley, by Dr. A. L. Kroeber. These 
publications constitute Numbers 3 and 4 of Volume II of the Anthro- 
pology Memoirs Series. The Leaflets, Races of Mankind, and Pre- 
historic Man, by Curator Henry Field, were revised and republished. 


A vast amount of the time of the Department staff has been spent 
in answering a wide variety of lay inquiries, which constantly pour 
in by letter and by telephone. Assistance has been rendered in 
identifying and attributing specimens brought in by visitors. Like- 
wise, much help has been given various students and scholars seeking 
special aid in assembling data on specimens, photographs, and 
bibliographies in connection with writing or research in which they 
are engaged. A great amount of time is also given to supervising 
various useful tasks upon which Works Progress Administration 
workers are engaged. 

Thirty-one articles were contributed by the staff of this Depart- 
ment to Field Museum News. The staff also supplied data used 
in twenty-four newspaper articles. 

Material collected in 1928 by the Field Museum—Oxford Uni- 


versity Joint Expedition to Mesopotamia (Iraq) figured in important — 


research whereby Professor Wolfgang Amschler, of the College of 
Agriculture, Vienna, Austria, established that the history of the 
domestic horse dates back a thousand years earlier than had previ- 
ously been believed. Professor Amschler identified teeth and bones 
excavated by the Museum expedition from the Early Dynastic I

The earlier theory was that the horse was introduced into Babylonia 
by the Kassites during the early portion of the second millennium B.C. 


ACCESSIONS—-ANTHROPOLOGY 


Accessions received and recorded during the year amount to | 
twenty-six, of which twenty-three were acquired as gifts, one was li 
acquired by exchange, one by purchase, and one by a Museum | 
expedition. The total number of objects included in these accessions | 


is 16,313. 


A complete list of Accessions will be found at the end of this — 


Report. Some outstanding ones require special mention here: 


DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY 195 


From Mr. Harold S. Gladwin, Director of Gila Pueblo, Globe, 
Arizona, was acquired an important type collection of pottery from 
the southwestern United States. The estate of Mrs. E. D. Christie, 
of Chicago, was the donor of an embroidered Persian shaw] of great 
beauty and value. From Miss Mary I. Jones, of Detroit, Michigan, 
a gift of twenty-three pieces of Chinese jewelry was received. 
Mr. Homer E. Sargent, of Pasadena, California, an ever generous 
donor, added, to the already priceless collection which he has gathered 
and presented to the Museum over a long period, twenty-two excel- 
lent baskets made by Indians of California, Oregon, and Washington. 


_Mr. F. O. Thompson, of Des Moines, lowa, made a gift of twenty 
_ pairs of silver earrings from Toluca, Mexico. Mr. N. Dwight Harris, 


of Evanston, Illinois, presented two images of Chinese deities, one of 
brass and one of wood. About 15,000 specimens were acquired as a 


result of the Field Museum Archaeological Expedition to the South- 


west. These consist mainly of potsherds taken from various levels 
of the four excavated sites, but include also many restorable pots and 
some bone and stone tools. A number of charred logs were likewise 


recovered, and these have been sent to Dr. Emil W. Haury of the 
University of Arizona, at Tucson, for dating. 


CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELING—-ANTHROPOLOGY 


Entries were made for fourteen of the twenty-six accessions 


received during the year. Likewise, there were entered twenty-one 


accessions of previous years. 


The number of catalogue cards prepared during the year total 
8,561, of which 1,792 were entered. The total number of catalogue 
cards entered from the opening of the first volume is 216,070. 


The catalogue cards for the current year were distributed as 


_ follows: North American archaeology and ethnology, 1,405; Central 


and South American, and Mexican archaeology and ethnology, 24; 
European archaeology and ethnology, 50; Chinese archaeology and 


_ ethnology, 718; African ethnology, 3; Kish archaeology, 6,355; 


Persian ethnology, 1; East Indian ethnology, 2; physical anthro- 


 pology, 3. 


— 


The Division of Printing supplied a total of 2,162 labels for use in 


_ exhibition cases. These labels were distributed as follows: Hall of 


the Races of Mankind, 813; North American archaeology, 20; 


_ ethnology of the Southwest, 26; Lowry Ruin, 2; Ainu, Burma, 


_ Ceylon, Korea, and eastern Siberia, 437; India, 326; China, 240; 


Greece and Rome, 1; Andaman and Nicobar Islands, 287; and for a 


196 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPoRTS, VOL. XI 


special exhibit, 10. The Division of Printing also supplied 4,700 
catalogue cards, 26,000 index cards, 2,200 record sheets, and other 
similar material. 

The number of additional photographs mounted in the depart- 
mental albums is 372. One new photograph album was opened. 

Workers assigned to the Department by the Works Progress 
Administration of the federal government accomplished an extraor- 
dinary amount of useful work in cleaning, repairing, and catalogu- 
ing specimens, preparation of exhibition material, and clerical duties. 


INSTALLATIONS AND REARRANGEMENTS—ANTHROPOLOGY 


Installation of materials for a new Hall of Asiatic Ethnology 
(covering regions outside of China and Japan) has continued through- 
out the year. The specimens to be exhibited have never before been 
shown. It has been necessary for Curator Lewis to sort the collec- 
tions, catalogue many of the specimens, and engage in special research 
in order to write correct labels. During 1987 Dr. Lewis, with the 
assistance of Preparator J. William Harrison, finished fourteen cases. 
These contain objects from Korea, India, Nicobar Islands, Andaman 
Islands, Siberia, and the islands of Yezo and Sakhalin. 

Curator Wilbur, assisted by Mr. Harrison, installed three cases 
of jade in the Hall of Chinese Jades (Hall 30). The specimens were 
bequeathed to the Museum in 1936 by the late Mrs. George T. 
(Frances Ann Gaylord) Smith. By means of special case lighting 
the variety of colors of the jades is brought out, and the translucency 
and internal structure of some of the specimens is revealed. 

In Hall B (archaeology of North America), a special exhibit 
illustrating a method of manufacturing chipped stone implements 
was planned, prepared, and installed by Mr. L. L. Pray, of the 
Department of Zoology, assisted by Preparator Herbert E. Weeks 
_and Miss Nell Starkson (employed for the Museum by the federal 
Works Progress Administration). Chief Curator Martin supervised — 
the creation of this exhibit. 

Preparator Weeks installed several cases of lower invertebrates | 
for the Department of Zoology. 

Sorting, cleaning, repairing, and identifying of specimens in | 
storage were continued under the direction of Mr. Paul Warner, a | 
competent ethnologist employed by the federal Works Progress | 
Administration. 

A subject index of specimens was begun by Mrs. Elizabeth Willis, | | 
anthropologist employed by the Works Progress Administration. |

All specimens from the Near and Far East have already been indexed 
and their location in the Museum noted. 


Mr. Tokumatsu Ito, who is in charge of special repair work for 
the Department, treated, repaired and restored 275 objects. Mr. 
Robert Yule, assistant and letterer in the Department, marked 
identification numbers on 2,247 objects, made many drawings 
needed for publication, and assisted the Chief Curator in many 
other ways. 


DEPARTMENT OF BOTANY 
EXPEDITIONS AND RESEARCH 
Late in January Mr. Llewelyn Williams, Curator of Economic 
Botany, sailed from New Orleans, for Coatzacoalcos, or Puerto 


Mexico, in the state of Veracruz, to make a general botanical collec- 
tion on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and to bring together a repre- . 


sentative collection of wood specimens for study purposes. The 


region in which operations were conducted embraces parts of the 
states of Veracruz and Oaxaca, where a variation of vegetative zones 
and a wealth of plant species are found within a comparatively 
small area. 

The first ten weeks, from early February to April, were spent in 
various mahogany camps at Fortufio, a tract of forest land measuring 
about 270 square miles between the Rivers Coatzacoalcos and 
Coachapan. The task of obtaining herbarium and wood specimens 
was greatly simplified by following the men who were felling mahog- 
any, Spanish cedar, primavera, and other woods exported to the 


_ United States. 


From the middle of April until late in June collecting was con- 
tinued farther south at Uvero and Tolosita, in the state of Oaxaca. 
The terrain here is more hilly than at Fortufio, and the vegetation 
shows some distinction. Several species of plants that had not been 


_ reported previously from Fortufio were collected in this area. During 


May a trip was made also to Salto de Agua and Palenque, in northern 
Chiapas, a region rich in mahogany and chicle trees, the latter the 
source of latex used in the manufacture of chewing gum. 

Late in June collecting was begun at Salina Cruz on the Pacific 
coast. Unlike the wet climate and dense tall forest growth on the 
side of the isthmus facing the Gulf of Mexico, the climate around 


_ Salina Cruz is extremely dry, resulting in the stunted vegetation of 


cacti, armed shrubs, and small trees characteristic of arid zones. 


_ The next collecting center was Tehuantepec, a historic city about 


198 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


thirty miles inland, surrounded by the cloud-covered ranges of the 
Sierra Madre. At Almoloya, about halfway between Uvero and 
Salina Cruz, an opportunity was provided to obtain specimens of 
pine and several species of oak which abound on the upper slopes 
of the hills encircling the plain on which this small village stands. 


Assistance greatly facilitating the work was given by various 
American individuals and concerns operating in Mexico, and Field 
Museum wishes to express its cordial appreciation for the co-opera- 
tion extended by them. Special acknowledgment should be made to 
Mr. Frederick J. Riker, President of the Maderas Tropicales, at 
Minatitlan, Veracruz, through whose interest and generosity accom- 
modations and native help were provided during the time spent by - 
Mr. Williams at Fortufio, on the Coatzacoalcos River. The Museum | 
is likewise grateful to Messrs. Bruce L. Hoover, James Barker, and 
D. C. Crawley for the hospitality and generous help given to Curator 
Williams during his stay of several weeks at Uvero and Tolosita, 
Oaxaca. 

As a result of the expedition there were obtained 1,650 herbarium | 
specimens, including several new or rare species, in most instances © 
with one or more duplicates. Also obtained were more than 500 speci- 
mens of woods, each one having corresponding herbarium material; 
numerous specimens of fruits, seeds, and gums for addition to the 
economic collections; and 462 photographic negatives of trees and > 
other subjects. ) 

It has long been the desire of the Department of Botany to 
obtain for its exhibits a specimen of Welwitschia, a remarkable _ 
woody plant of great botanical interest, existing in limited numbers — 
only in some localities in southeast Africa where it is now protected | 
by law. This year the Portuguese government granted permission © 
to Field Museum to obtain a specimen in Angola, and Professor H. | 
Humbert, Director of the Division of Phanerogams, of the Muséum f 
d’Histoire Naturelle in Paris, kindly agreed to visit, on his way to 
Madagascar, the Portuguese African colony on behalf of Field 
Museum. Making several excursions into the Mossamedes Desert, (3 
he obtained a complete collection of dried and preserved material 
of this extraordinary gymnosperm. The carefully packed specimens' — 
arrived in the United States Customs House in Chicago a few days | 
before the end of the year. 

The Museum acknowledges special indebtedness not only tol! 
Professor Humbert for his services, and for his detailed observations © 
and notes on this plant, but also to Dr. M. A. Pimentel Teixeaea

DEPARTMENT OF BOTANY | 199 


of Mossamedes, and to officials of the colonial forest and irrigation 
service of Angola, for their co-operation with Dr. Humbert in securing 
and shipping this material. 


In Europe, Associate Curator J. Francis Macbride, continuing 
his work described in previous Reports (1929 to 1936 inclusive), 
of photographing tropical American plant type specimens, divided 
his time during 1937 between the herbaria at Geneva and Paris. 
At the Conservatoire et Jardin Botaniques of Geneva he was enabled, 
through continued co-operation of Dr. B. P. G. Hochreutiner, 
Director, to photograph further types from the rich collections of 

that institution. He also had photographed there a large number of 
specimens lent for the purpose by the herbaria of Vienna and Madrid. 


Material at Vienna had been selected for photographing during 
the previous year, and its loan was made possible by the interest of 
Dr. Karl Keissler, of the Naturhistorisches Museum. Similarly, the 
Madrid specimens had been selected during a visit to the Jardin 
Botanico before the beginning of the civil war in Spain. Permission 
to forward them to Geneva, where they could be photographed more 
conveniently, was then generously extended by the Director, Dr. 

| Antonio Garcia Varela. 


A particularly important series of negatives, obtained by Mr. 
_ Maebride in Geneva, is that of copies made there more than a century 
ago of the drawings of the Sessé and Mocifio collection of Mexican 
_ plants. The originals of these drawings are lost, but the copies, made 
_by De Candolle, are the basis for descriptions of numerous new 
_ species. Previously there have existed in the United States only 
_ poor tracings of some of these plates, which are important for study 
_of the Mexican flora. It is hoped that these photographs may 
_ facilitate the recognition of some of the Sessé and Mocifio plants 
_ whose identity has long been uncertain. They will be particularly 
_ valuable in study of the Sessé and Mocifio Herbarium, now on loan 
_ at Field Museum, having been sent here by the Jardin Botanico of 
_ Madrid early in 1936. The story of the Sessé and Mocifio Expedi- 
tion, incidentally, served as the topic for one of Field Museum’s 
_ radio broadcasts during the summer of 1937. 


At the end of 1937 there had been received at the Museum 5,789 
_ Negatives made under Mr. Macbride’s supervision during the past two 
_ years. The total number of such negatives of type specimens now at 
hand is 34,289, illustrating almost as many species of tropical 
_ American plants. Together they represent the majority of species 


200 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


known from South America, and form a study series which for com- 
pleteness is equaled in few if any other institutions. 


The practical utility of these photographs is realized by all 
botanists who have seen them, and they are constantly in demand for 
monographic research in both America and Europe. Similar photo- 
graphic work upon so extensive a scale has never before been under- 
taken by any botanical institution. Prints from the negatives are 
made available by the Museum to botanists generally. During the 
past year 3,115 such prints have been furnished at cost of production 
to institutions in North and South America, and many others have 
been sent in exchange for similar type photographs desired by Field 
Museum. 


Collections received for determination and study from widely 
scattered sources have occupied fully the time of the Herbarium staff 
throughout the year. Care of the Herbarium has been greatly 
facilitated by the employment throughout 1937 of a large number of 
workers supplied by the Works Progress Administration of the 


federal government. Although direction of the WPA workers has 


consumed much of the time of the staff, this is justified by the 


results accomplished. There have been mounted and added to the | 
Herbarium 40,255 sheets of specimens and photographs, and more | 


than 12,400 printed or typewritten descriptions of new species of 
plants. These figures indicate rapid growth, and compare well with 
similar data for other large herbaria of the world. The total number 
of specimens now in the Herbarium is 894,500. All work of mounting 


has been brought up to date, and only current collections remain. | 


| 


| 
| 
| 


These are handled promptly, the mounted specimens being om | 


tributed into the permanent study collections within a few weeks of 
receipt, making new accessions quickly available for consultation. 
Good progress has been made at cleaning and repairing sheets in 
the general Herbarium. Several persons were occupied with this task © 
during the year, to the great benefit of the collections. Many 


/ 


hundreds of new covers for genera and species were written, data | 


upon the sheets were corrected and amplified, and search was made 


for misplaced specimens such as occur, in spite of all care, in every | 


large herbarium. 


Considerable work was also done in rearrangement, according 


to recent literature, of certain groups of plants. The greater part’ 


of the grasses, for instance, was thus rearranged in accordance with | 


recently published manuals and floras. A large amount of surplus

palm material, originally collected for the exhibits, was cut up and 
prepared for incorporation into the Herbarium. 


There were submitted to the Herbarium for study and determina- 
tion more than 13,280 specimens of plants, principally from tropical 
America and the United States, but representing also various other 
regions. While part of this material was returned to the senders 
after determinations had been made, the larger portion was retained 
for preservation in the Herbarium. Besides, there were named but 
not retained for the collections many plant specimens from the 
Chicago region and elsewhere that were brought or mailed to the 
Museum by visitors, teachers, and students. Hundreds of inquiries 
regarding the most varied botanical matters were answered by mail 
and telephone. 


During 1937 the Herbarium has been consulted by many visiting 
botanists, not only from the Chicago region but from near and 
remote parts of the United States, and also from foreign countries. 
It has been used frequently by scientists and students from the 
several large universities in or near Chicago and elsewhere in Illinois 
or neighboring states. Its use is intensified by the fact that it is the 
only large herbarium existing within a radius of several hundred 
‘miles. The staff of the Museum’s own Department of Botany, of 
course, utilizes it constantly as a source of information and as the 
basis of original studies. 


Botanical publications of 1987 much exceeded, in number of 
‘pages, those of any previous year in the Museum’s history, and 
included one complete volume of the Botanical Series. Among them 
is Number 3 of Volume IX, Useful Plants and Drugs of Iran and Iraq, 
by Dr. David Hooper of Wellcome Historical Medical Museum, 
London, with notes by Dr. Henry Field, Curator of Physical Anthro- 
-pology at Field Museum. This publication is based on the economic 
part of the collection of plants and notes made by the latter on the 

Field Museum Anthropological Expedition to the Near East (1934). 


Of Volume XIII, Flora of Peru, by Associate Curator J. Francis 
Macbride, two parts were issued. This work is intended to be a 
descriptive account of all flowering plants known from Peru, and is 
based primarily on the Museum’s extensive Peruvian collections 
obtained chiefly by its botanical expeditions to that country. When 
completed, this work will consist of six large volumes, of which six 
Scattered parts have been issued to date. In the parts published 
during 1937, accounts of certain families were contributed by the

Rev. Mr. F. E. Wimmer, of Vienna, Dr. R. Pilger, of Berlin, and 
Mr. Ellsworth P. Killip, of Washington, D.C. 

Volume XVI, issued in 1937, contains more than 700 pages and 
189 text figures. It is devoted to an account of the genus Bidens, 
by Dr. E. E. Sherff, Research Associate in Systematic Botany at 
Field Museum. The genus, with 233 species, is one of the largest 
of the vast family Compositae, and is represented in tropical and 
temperate regions of almost the whole earth. The volume repre- 
sents many years of research, based upon material from all the larger 
herbaria of both hemispheres. 

Of Volume XVII three parts were published during 19387. Num- 
ber 1 is The North American Species of Rumex, by Dr. K. H. Rech- 
inger, Jr.,of the Naturhistorisches Museum, Vienna. Numbers 2 and 
3, Studies of American Plants, Parts VII and VIII, by Curator Paul 
C. Standley, are devoted principally to descriptions of new species 
of tropical American plants. 

Volume XVIII, by Curator Standley, enumerating and describing 
the Flora of Costa Rica, is based upon studies in both field and 
herbarium. The two parts published, consisting of 790 pages, cover 
perhaps three-fifths of the plants known from that small Central 
American republic, which possesses one of the most varied floras 
of all tropical regions. | 

During the year Curator Standley published in various periodi- © 
cals three short articles on American plants. He also contributed | 
accounts of several families to the Flora of Peru, and descriptions of | 
new species that appeared in papers published by other authors. 

Two additions were made to the Museum’s series of Botanical — 
Leaflets. Number 20, House Plants, by Robert Van Tress, Horti- 
culturist at Garfield Park Conservatory, illustrates and describes, - 
with directions for their care, about thirty ornamental plants most» 
commonly sold and used for window-gardening and home decoration. © 
In addition, it lists some fifty others, less usual, that may be grown | 
for the same purpose. Number 21, Tea, by Mr. Llewelyn Williams, 
Curator of Economic Botany, deals briefly with the history of the tea. 
plant, its cultivation in the various tea-growing countries, and 
methods of classifying tea and preparing it for market. ) 

Members of the Department staff prepared for the periodical 
Tropical Woods a large number of abstracts and reviews of current 
literature relating to woody plants of the tropics. They contributed 
many articles for Field Museum News, as well as data for various’ 


newspaper articles.

ACCESSIONS—BOTANY 


During 1937 the Department of Botany received 303 accessions, 
comprising 53,551 specimens. Both the number of accessions, and 
the number of specimens included in them, were much larger than in 
the preceding year, and their value was apparently much greater. 
The accessions included specimens for the exhibits, for the Her- 
barium, and for the wood and economic collections. Of the total 
number, 15,192 were gifts, 22,307 were acquired in exchange, 3,053 

' were purchased, 11,970 were obtained by Museum expeditions, and 

the remainder were received from miscellaneous sources. 
! The most important single accession for the exhibits received 
during the year was of paleobotanical character, viz., one of the well- 
_known fossil cyead trunks collected years ago in the Black Hills of 
South Dakota by the late President T. H. Macbride, of the Uni- 
| versity of Iowa. This was obtained, by exchange, through the 
friendly co-operation of Mr. Fred Thompson, of Des Moines, and 
| the courtesy of Dean G. F. Kay, of the University of Iowa. These 
remarkably preserved plant fossils have been made famous through 
‘the monograph on them by Professor G. R. Wieland, of Yale 
University. The Museum’s specimen will serve as the basis for a 
_ three-dimensional restoration to which will be assigned an appropriate 
place in the botanical exhibits. 

To the collections of economic material and woods there were 
added 704 specimens. Almost two hundred of these were con- 
tributed by individuals, and scientific or commercial institutions, 
_as gifts or exchanges. The remainder, including a trunk of a Mexican 
rubber tree for the rubber exhibit in Hall 28, and some five hundred 
specimens of woods, were assembled by the Field Museum Botanical 
Expedition to Southern Mexico. The names of all contributors will 
be found in the list of Accessions (p. 254); particular mention 
_ of a few follows herewith. 

Mr. B. A. Krukoff, of New York, who has done much col- 
lecting in the Amazon region and elsewhere, presented several 
' samples of Para rubber, barks of trees, roots used for fish poison, 
and latex from various species of trees, all assembled by him 

during 1933 in Brazil. The Hammermill Paper Company, Erie, 
_ Pennsylvania, furnished samples of unbleached, bleached and 
_ colored paper pulp and machine stock to replace material which had 
_ deteriorated or become discolored after being on display for several 
_ years. Friends of the Western Mountains, through their secretary, 

Mr. C. E. Graves, gave the Museum photographs of red alder and

Sitka spruce, required to complete the exhibits of those woods in 
Charles F. Millspaugh Hall (Hall 26). Through the courtesy of Mr. 
O. A. Oakes, Evanston, Illinois, there were received four large planks 
of important commercial woods of New Zealand. These are par- 
ticularly appreciated because heretofore no material from that country 
has been available for exhibition in the Hall of Foreign Woods (Hall 
27). From Mr.S. M. Le Barron, New Orleans, Louisiana, there were 
received several planks of woods from Mexico, including walnut and 
primavera. 

Of the total receipts, specimens for the Herbarium amounted 
to 52,682, including plant material, photographs, and typed descrip- 
tions. A large amount of exceptionally valuable herbarium material 
was received through exchange. First in importance was a sending 
of 4,709 specimens from the Naturhistorisches Museum, Vienna, 
transmitted by Dr. Karl Keissler, Director of the Botanical Section. 
This large series consisted in major part of old collections from Brazil 
and Peru, representing type material of several hundred species 
discovered by the earlier collectors, and not represented previously 
in American herbaria. Another exchange of similarly valuable 
material, amounting to 665 specimens from tropical America, was re- 


ceived from the Muséum d’ Histoire Naturelle (Phanérogamie), Paris, — 
through the courtesy of Professor H. Humbert. The Conservatoire — 


et Jardin Botaniques, Geneva, in continuation of previous generous 


sendings of plants, transmitted 1,837 specimens of historical interest, _ 
which supplement admirably the series of type photographs made in | 


; 


that institution by Associate Curator Macbride. This new shipment | 


was made possible by the courtesy of the Director, Dr. Hochreutiner. 


Other important receipts of specimens through exchange included 
357 specimens of Mexican plants, from the Arnold Arboretum, 
Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts; 406 specimens of California plants, 
from the California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco; 378 speci- 


mens of Utah plants, from the Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh; 2,078 — 


specimens from Guatemala and the United States, from the Depart- 
ment of Botany, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York; 339 speci- 
mens collected in Glacier National Park, Montana, from the Depart- 
ment of Botany, De Pauw University, Greencastle, Indiana; 550 
specimens of Hawaiian plants, from Dr. F. Raymond Fosberg, 


Philadelphia; 412 specimens of United States and Brazilian plants, | 
from the Gray Herbarium of Harvard University; 204 specimens of 
Argentine plants, from the Instituto de Botanica Darwinion, San — 
Isidro, Argentina; 521 specimens and photographs of unusual his- _

torical interest from the Narodni Museum, Prague, Czechoslovakia; 
360 specimens of North Dakota plants, from the North Dakota 
Agricultural College; 668 specimens and photographs, representing 
chiefly species of tropical America, from the United States National 
Museum; 587 specimens, chiefly of Mexico and Central America, 
from the Herbarium of the University of Michigan; 851 specimens of 
United States plants from the Department of Botany, University of 
Minnesota; and 627 specimens of Canadian plants, from the De- 
partment of Botany, University of Montreal. 


Among numerous gifts of herbarium material accessioned during 
the year are many of outstanding value, particularly from tropical 
America. Among these may be mentioned 335 Mexican plants, from 
the Bailey Hortorium, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York; 134 
specimens of Costa Rican plants, from the Department of Botany, 
Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota; 228 specimens of Colombian 
plants, from the Rev. Brother Elias, Barranquilla; 730 beautifully 
prepared specimens from Jardim Botanico de Bello Horizonte, 
Brazil; 567 specimens of Guatemalan plants from Dr. John R. 
Johnston, Chimaltenango; 667 specimens of Brazilian plants, from 
Mr. Boris A. Krukoff, New York; 1,085 specimens of Costa Rican 
plants, from the Museo Nacional, San José, through its director, 
Professor Juvenal Valerio Rodriguez; 184 specimens from Professor 
J. Soukup, Puno, Peru; 237 specimens from Professor Manuel 
Valerio, San José, Costa Rica; 219 specimens of Peruvian plants, 
from Dr. César Vargas, Cuzco; 325 specimens of Brazilian plants 
from the Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi, Para; and 218 specimens 
of plants of Honduras, from Professor T. G. Yuncker, Greencastle, 
Indiana. 

The Department of Botany of the University of Texas, through 
Professor B. C. Tharp, presented 1,431 specimens, chiefly from 
western Texas and northeastern Mexico, most of which were named 


at Field Museum. In continuation of his practice of former years, 


Professor Samuel J. Record, of the Yale School of Forestry, New 
Haven, Connecticut, forwarded 258 specimens representing woody 
plants of South America, Africa, and the Pacific Islands. The 
largest single gift of the year consisted of 4,078 specimens from 
Missouri, presented by Assistant Curator Julian A. Steyermark. 
This material is chiefly from the Ozark region, and was obtained 
during an intensive survey carried on during the past summer. Mr. 
J. S. Daston, Chicago, contributed twenty-four specimens of cacti 
collected by him in the southwestern United States and in Mexico. 


206 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Other gifts include 315 specimens from the United States and 
Europe, being the private herbarium of the late Mrs. Abigail Butier, 
presented by Mr. McCrillis Butler, Chicago; 236 specimens from the 
central states, by Mr. Hermann C. Benke, Chicago; 850 specimens 
of Utah plants, from Dr. Helen Dixon, Chicago; 488 specimens of 
New Mexico plants, from Sister M. Marcelline, Grand Rapids, 
Michigan; 165 specimens of Texas plants, from Mr. Ernest G. Marsh, 
Jr., Austin; 357 specimens of Missouri plants, from Mr. George 
Moore, Lebanon; and 566 plants of various regions, from Dr. E. E, 
Sherff, Chicago. 


CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING AND LABELING—BOTANY 


Workers assigned to the Department by the federal Works 
Progress Administration rendered great assistance in the reorgani- 
zation and arrangement of reference and exchange material, of her- 
barium and economic specimens, and of woods. They also performed 
many and varied tasks of typing. More than 257,000 catalogue 
cards were written by them for permanent and temporary files, some 
of which, when completed, will be of extraordinary practical value. 
Many thousands of herbarium and wood collection labels were pre- 
pared for the permanent collections and for duplicates sent out as 
exchanges. 


The economic collections, stored in large part in the lockers under 
the exhibition cases in Halls 26, 27, 28 and 29, were again thoroughly 
gone over. For convenience in future reference, each locker was 
supplied with a typed list of its contents, checked against the existing — 
catalogues of this material. 


During 1937 there were distributed, to institutions and indi- 
viduals, forty-five lots of material, including 11,437 herbarium — 
specimens, wood specimens, photographs, and typed descriptions of | 
new species. These were sent to numerous institutions and indi- | 
viduals in North and South America, and Europe. Sixty-three lots — 
of specimens were lent for study to institutions and individuals in . 
North and South America, and Europe, and fifty-one lots were | 
received on loan, for study or determination. 


INSTALLATIONS AND REARRANGEMENTS—BOTANY 


An important improvement for the botanical exhibits was made — 
early in the year by the construction of built-in cases in the unoccu- | 
pied north end of the Hall of Plant Life (Hall 29) to provide exhibi- | 
tion place for three of six ecological groups planned for this hall. 


—  —_ 


DEPARTMENT OF BOTANY 207 


The three groups which will occupy this end of the hall are designed 
to represent characteristic aspects of the vegetation of the frigid and 
temperate zone. Those planned for the south end will illustrate plant 
formations of the tropics and subtropics. 

Work on two of the groups has been under way for some time. 
Material for the first one, a large diorama of an alpine meadow with a 
special variety of arctic vegetation, selected for its ready accessibility, 
was collected first in 1927. Work on it was then carried on for some 
months, but was halted in favor of completing the Carboniferous 
forest reconstruction now on exhibition in Ernest R. Graham Hall 
(Hall 38) of the Department of Geology. Resumed in 1936, work on 
the alpine group was brought near to completion in 1937, with the 
aid of workers supplied by the Works Progress Administration. 


Material, photographs and observations on which the group is 
based were obtained in the Medicine Bow Range in Wyoming at an 
altitude of 12,000 feet above sea level, near the University of Wyo- 
ming summer camp about forty miles from Laramie. The exhibit, a 
twenty-five foot diorama, when completed will represent a Rocky 
Mountain summer landscape at the timber-line, where alpine con- 
ditions determine the character of the vegetation. The painted 
background will show an extensive plain with snow-capped moun- 
tains in the distance. In the foreground reproductions of the flora of 
the alpine meadow will illustrate its late midseason condition—early 
spring flowers still in contact with remaining snow on the one hand, 
while on the other, farthest removed from the snow, vegetation far 
advanced and beginning to assume aspects ranging from those of late 
summer to autumn. The simultaneous presence of spring, summer 
and autumn conditions is characteristic of such a habitat. Lingering 
snow retards the blooming of the spring flora, while at the same 
time the quick growth and rapid succession demanded by the short- 
ness of the growing period brings into flower and fruit, in the space 
of a few weeks, a tufted carpet of low-growing, flowering herbs, along 
with some stunted juniper and prostrate spruces as the only repre- 
sentatives of the woody vegetation below. 


The preparation of this group, including all details involved in 
the collection of botanical specimens and other material and data, 
as well as the reproduction of the large number of individual plants 
of more than thirty species represented, has throughout been in charge 
of Mr. Emil Sella, of the Plant Reproduction Laboratories staff. 
The painted background is the work of Museum staff artists. The 
preliminary sketches were made by Mr. Charles A. Corwin, and are 


om 


208 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


being carried out and elaborated on a large scale by Mr. Arthur G. 
Rueckert. 


The second ecological group under way, well advanced with the 
help of WPA workers, is one representing a spring woodland scene 
such as was once typical of the Chicago area, and may still be found 
in a few undisturbed spots beyond the limits of the city. 


A third exhibition project, carried on during the year with the aid 
of skilled WPA workers under the supervision of Mr. John R. Millar, 
of the Department staff (until his transfer late in the year to the 
Department of the N. W. Harris Public School Extension), is also 
not quite completed. Itis a reproduction of a nipa palm for Hall 25. 
The preserved botanical material and data for this was obtained in 
the Georgetown Botanic Gardens by the Stanley Field Expedition 
to British Guiana (1922). 


Several other exhibits to which the labor of WPA workers under 
the supervision of Mr. Millar has contributed in greater or less degree 
are under way. One of them is a small-scale diorama of a cassava 
starch mill for the food plant exhibits in Hall 25. Another is a repro- 
duction of a clump of epiphytic bee-swarm orchid, a species of 
Cyrtopodium, for the Hall of Plant Life (Hall 29). 


The case devoted to the rose family, to which belong most of the 
well-known fruits and berries of the temperate zone, received some 
special attention with the preparation of further material. A branch 
of sour cherry, reproduced by Mr. Milton Copulos of the Laboratories 
staff, is the latest addition. 


The exhibition case devoted to the royal palm and its allies was 
reinstalled early in the year, with the addition of new material and 
photographs. Several transparencies of scenes pertaining to food 
plants were prepared for the windows of Hall 25. 


In Charles F. Millspaugh Hall of North American Woods (Hall 26), 
two new installations were made, namely, Idaho white pine, material 
of which was presented several years ago by the Panhandle Lumber 
Company, Boise, Idaho; and sycamore, for which the Keith Lumber 
Company, Chicago, and the Eastman-Gardiner Hardwood Company, | 
Laurel, Mississippi, gave material in 1931 and 1935. Photographic _ 
enlargements were also added to the exhibits of incense and western _ 
red cedar. Of the eighty-four species of North American trees | 
selected for display in this hall, on the basis of the commercial value — 
of their wood, there now remain to be added only the three western | 
species: Sitka spruce, noble fir, and red alder. |

In the Hall of Foreign Woods (Hall 27), there was installed 
one case of woods of Mexico, consisting of twelve planks representa- 
tive of some of the commercial species of southern Mexico which are 
now imported into the United States. These were presented in 1935 
by Mr. Bruce Hoover, of Mexico City. 


DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY 
EXPEDITIONS AND RESEARCH 


An expedition to western Colorado, under the leadership of 


Assistant Curator Bryan Patterson, spent three months collecting 
vertebrate fossils. Mr. James H. Quinn, of the paleontology labora- 


tories staff, accompanied Mr. Patterson. Curator Elmer 8. Riggs 


joined the expedition for a part of the season, and two volunteers, 
Mr. Clayton A. Quinn, of Ainsworth, Nebraska, and Mr. Theodore 


Burdish, of Hazelcrest, Illinois, contributed valuable services. Many 
specimens were collected from the Upper Paleocene beds of Plateau 
Valley, and others were collected from Lower Eocene formations. 


_ The more important specimens include a mountable skeleton of anew 


genus of tusked amblypod (discovered by Mr. Alfred A. Look, of 
Grand Junction, Colorado), the anterior half of the skeleton of a 
second new amblypod, a skull and other parts of a new uintathere, the 
skull and jaws of a Paleocene species of Phenacodus, the skull and jaws 
of a large Coryphodon, and good specimens of crocodiles. 


The expedition made a collection also of fossil plants and gastro- 
pods from the Upper Cretaceous and Paleocene formations. It is 
expected that this collection of fossil plants will disclose specimens 


- new to science, and that it will be an important aid in arriving at a 


} 


_ better understanding of the stratigraphy of the area in which they 
were collected. A study of this collection should reveal much about 


the vegetation contemporaneous with the Paleocene vertebrates 
collected by the expedition, and provide a clearer picture of the 
_ surroundings under which these animals lived. 


The success enjoyed by the expedition was in no small measure 
due to the friendliness and generous co-operation of residents in the 
region. Among these, Messrs. Edwin B. Faber and Alfred A. Look, 
of Grand Junction; Messrs. J. Edwin and Douglas Harris, and 


_ Miss Julia Harris, of Mesa; Mr. Hatton Edgerly, of De Beque; Mr. 


Charles Deardorff and Miss Hazel Deardorff, of Silt; and Messrs. 
William B. Hilton and G. Bradley Harris, of Rifle, should be especially

mentioned. It is safe to say that the results of the expedition would 
have fallen far short of what was actually accomplished had it not 
been for the aid given by these and other persons in the donation of 
specimens and in the ready granting of facilities for working. 


Curator Sharat K. Roy spent five weeks during July and August 
in northwestern Colorado collecting specimens needed for the in- 
stallation of an enlarged collection illustrating structural and physical 
geology in Clarence Buckingham Hall (Hall 35). Besides collecting 
examples of rock folding, which was the principal object of the expedi- 
tion, other specimens needed for later stages of this installation, as 
well as a number of fine zeolite minerals, were obtained. Much of the 
success of the expedition was due to the active co-operation of Dr. 
P. G. Worcester, of the University of Colorado, who has carried on 
field work in the region for many years. 


Mr. Roy, working under a grant-in-aid from the Carnegie Cor- 
poration, New York, spent two months visiting eastern museums and 
universities. The purposes of the trip were: (1) Comparative studies 
of Ordovician arctic fossils collected by Mr. Roy during the Rawson— 
MacMillan Subarctic Expedition (1927-28) with fossils of the same 
age from North America; (2) consultations with specialists in Ordo- 


vician stratigraphy and paleontology; (3) study of methods of classi- 
fication and exhibition of igneous rocks; (4) study of methods of 


exhibition of invertebrate paleontology and physical geology; (5) — 
study of general museum technique relating to geology. The studies 
and comparisons of Ordovician fossils were undertaken to increase 
the value of Mr. Roy’s monograph on the geology and paleontology 
of Baffin Land, in which he is incorporating the results of his work as 
a member of the Rawson—MacMillan Expedition. The other studies 
were undertaken in connection with revisions of exhibited collections 
now under way or contemplated. During this trip Mr. Roy visited 
the following institutions, in all of which he received the most hearty 
co-operation: the American Museum of Natural History, New York; 
Columbia University, New York; Yale University, New Haven, 
Connecticut; United States National Museum, Washington, D.C.; 


Rutgers University, New Brunswick, New Jersey; Princeton Univer- | 


sity, New Jersey; and the Peabody Museums at Harvard University, 


Cambridge, Massachusetts, and at Yale. All the studies and obser- | 


vations were successfully and profitably carried out. 


Many of the fossil mammals from the Marshall Field Paleonto- | i

from the more recent expeditions to Colorado, are new species and in |

some cases new genera, or are from species inadequately studied in 
the past. Concurrently with the preparation of these specimens, 
which has been the principal task of the vertebrate paleontologists 
for several years, Curator Riggs and Assistant Curator Patterson 
have continued studies of them. The results of such studies as have 
been completed appear in four papers published during the year. 
Three of these—A Mounted Skeleton of Homaladotherium, by Mr. 
Riggs; A New Genus Barylambda for Titanoides Faberi, Paleocene 
Amblypod, by Mr. Patterson; and A Soricid and Two Erinaceids from 
the White River Oligocene, by Mr. Patterson in collaboration with Mr. 
Paul O. McGrew, of the University of Chicago—were published by 
the Museum. One, A New Pleistocene Bog Deposit and Its Fauna, by 
Mr. Riggs, was published by the Illinois State Academy of Science. 
A fifth paper, also by Mr. Riggs, The Stratigraphy of the Catamarcan 
Pliocene Deposits, is to be published by the Second Argentine 
Congress of Natural Scientists, at Mendoza, Argentina. 

Curator Roy published a paper “Additional Notes on Living 
Bacteria in Meteorites,’ in Popular Astronomy, and is now incor- 
‘porating the results of his studies in eastern museums in his mono- 
graph on the geology and paleontology of Baffin Land, which he 
| expects to complete in 1938. 


Dr. Albert J. Walcott, working under a special arrangement, 
made a detailed study of all minerals in the Museum showing aster- 
ism. He incorporated the results in a paper, published by the 
Museum, on the cause of this phenomenon in gem minerals. 


ACCESSIONS—-GEOLOGY 
| P, o ° = 
__ The number of accessions recorded during the year was sixty-nine. 


The number of specimens included in these accessions was 1,259. 
Of these, 692 were gifts, 117 were obtained by exchange, 449 came 
from expeditions or were collected by members of the staff, and one 
was purchased. This represents an increase of nearly one-third in 
the number of accessions, and of nearly two-thirds in the number of 
_ specimens received, as compared with the preceding year. There was 
_ likewise a noteworthy improvement in the quality of the specimens 
received by gift. 

A most attractive addition to the gem collection is a large star 
sapphire, mounted in a white gold ring, presented by Mrs. William 
_ J. Chalmers, Chicago. 

{ A group of 248 small opals of exceptional quality, the gift of Mr. 
_ Jerome Von Rappaport, Chicago, is another valued addition to the 


212 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


gem collection. It illustrates the beautiful effects that can be ob- 
tained by a massed assembly of small but brilliant stones. 

A gift from Mr. H. V. Schiefer, Cleveland Heights, Ohio, added 
nine specimens of cabochon-cut chalcedony of fine quality to the 
display of semi-precious stones. Mr. August Rassweiler, Chicago, 
presented a cabochon-cut green aventurine. 

Mr. Haruyoshi Tokuno, of Fushun, Manchukuo, presented a 
figure of the Daruma Buddha, carved by a native artist from jet 
mined in Manchukuo. 

The most important addition to the meteorite collection was a 
gift, by the Estate of Wiliam N. Rumely, of Chicago and La Porte, 
Indiana, of a meteorite weighing thirty-two pounds, found years ago 
near La Porte. . 

Other gifts for addition to the meteorite collection include a speci- 
men of the Lake Labyrinth (Australia) meteorite, from Dr. H. H. 
Nininger, of Denver, Colorado; and an individual of the Pultusk 
(Poland) meteorite from the Industrial and Agricultural Museum of 
Warsaw, Poland. The collection was further enlarged by the addi- 
tion of fourteen meteorites obtained by exchange. 


A collection of twenty-three industrial minerals of Poland, 
presented by the Industrial and Agricultural Museum in Warsaw, 
is an important addition to the economic exhibits. It includes a full 
series of the minerals of the salt and potash mines of that country. 


A gift from Mr. Tokumatsu Ito of the Museum staff, of twenty 
specimens of coals and their products, as well as amber and other 
industrial minerals of Manchukuo, is another valued addition to the 
economic collections. 

A specimen of salt and a salt stalactite from Palestine, presented 
by Mr. Morris G. Morrison, Evanston, Illinois, is of interest as it 
comes from the region where, according to the Biblical account, Lot’s | 
wife was changed to a pillar of salt. 

Two polished specimens of bird’s-eye quartz, a variety new to the 
collections, were presented by Mr. J. R. Wharton, Roseburg, Oregon. 
Mr. Frank Von Drasek, Cicero, Illinois, added, to his gifts of former 
years, forty-two specimens of minerals and ores from New Mexico 
and Arkansas. Mr. J. W. Jennings, Eureka Springs, Arkansas, added | 
six minerals from Arkansas to his earlier gifts. A collection of 106 
minerals was presented by Miss Marguerite Simmons, Chicago. 


An unusual occurrence of concretions is represented by a gift) 


of eighteen specimens from Mr. Dan P. Mumbrue, Helena, Montana. 


. 


DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY PANS) 


The value of these is enhanced by the fact that a full description of 
their mode of occurrence accompanied them. Other concretions, 

each with some aspect of special interest, were presented by Mr. and 
Mrs. Alexander Darragh, Chicago; Mr. A. F. Setterle, Cicero, 

Illinois; Mrs. Dorothy K. Young, South Haven, Michigan; Mr. 

Elmer L. Rembold, Chicago; Mr. W. E. Matthews, West Terre Haute, 
Indiana; Mr. Lloyd Cannon, Olmsted, Illinois; and Mr. G. B. Cal- 
-houn, Chicago. All of these differ in several ways from those now in 
the collections. 


An attractive group of iridescent fossil shells imbedded in lime- 
stone, presented by Mr. Ray C. Gruhlke, of Olympia, Washington, 
was especially welcomed because it came at a time when it was 
needed to complete an installation. Another important addition 
to the collections was a gift from Mr. Anthony Mazur, Chicago, of 
geological specimens and fossils from Poland. 

Gifts to the economic collection include copper ores from Mr. 
Frank P. Reagan, Chicago; barite from the firm of Levin and Rubin, 
Chicago; and four specimens of gold ore containing free gold from 
Mr. A. M. Bilsky, Toronto, Canada. The Standard Oil Company 
(Indiana), Chicago, replaced sixteen deteriorated specimens in the 
petroleum exhibit. 

Gifts of vertebrate fossils were numerous and important. The 
‘unusual number was due largely to gifts from Colorado residents 
who assisted the 1937 Paleontological Expedition to Colorado. 
Important among these are two fossil skeletons and the jaw of a 
fossil lizard, presented by Mr. Alfred A. Look, of Grand Junction. 
The skeletons are of a new species, as yet unnamed, of amblypod— 
-an early mammal of medium size. Another important specimen, 
'presented by Mr. Edwin B. Faber, also of Grand Junction, is the 
‘lower jaw of an early fossil mammal and the foot bones of another. 
Other gifts of fossil vertebrates from Colorado friends of the expedi- 
tion came from Mr. Hatton Edgerly, De Beque; Miss Hazel Dear- 
| dorff, Silt; Mr. Myron A. Kaempfer, Denver, and Messrs. William B. 
_and Oliver Hilton, and G. Bradley Harris, of Rifle. Messrs. Harris

versity of Chicago, the Museum received the jaw of a three-toed 
horse and the jaw of an Oligocene opossum. 

Mr. Edwin C. Galbreath, of Ashmore, Illinois, added in 1987 to 
the large collection of Illinois Pleistocene fossils he presented in 1936, 
fossil bones of musk-ox, giant beaver, and ground sloth. Other 
gifts of vertebrate fossils came from Mr. Homer Mooney, Carson 
City, Nevada, and Mr. William Callahan, Aurora, Kansas. 

The American Museum of Natural History, New York, presented 
a cast of the mandible and palate of Dryopithecus. From the same 
institution there came, by exchange, a cast of the lower jaw of a holo- 
type of Griphodon; a cast of the skeleton of the large fossil bird 
Diairyma, and thirty-one fossil plants. 

Fossil bones of horse, bison, rhinoceros and elephant, the gift of 
Mr. Michael A. Weymarn, of Harbin, Manchukuo, are of special 
interest because fossils from that distant part of the world are needed 
for comparison with specimens from regions previously represented 
in the Museum collections. 

Skulls of four Oligocene mammals, and two large and rare Oli- 
gocene shells, were added to the collections by an exchange with 
Mr. George F. Sternberg, of Hays, Kansas. 

Specimens of fossil leaves and bark were presented by Mr. G. W. 
Wharton, Roseburg, Oregon; Mr. R. H. Stewart, Ironton, Ohio; and 
Mr. E. M. Cole, Audubon, Iowa. 

Specimens of fossil wood, presented by Mr. L. B. Roberts, of 
Batesville, Arkansas, are of interest due to the fact that the wood 


has changed to oxide of iron but some of the woody structure has been _ 
preserved. Mr. J. Atkinson Conrow, Baltimore, Maryland, presented — 


twelve fossil shells; Mr. A. C. Helwig, Keokuk, Iowa, a fossil coral; 


and Mr. James Gerritson, Kankakee, Illinois, two cephalopods. — 


By exchange with Mr. E. Mitchell Gunnell, Galesburg, Illinois, | 
and Mr. Martin Ehrmann, New York, seventeen specimens of excep- — 


tionally choice minerals have been added to the mineral collection. 
Seventeen specimens of scenery agate, obtained by exchange with 
Mr. Oscar U. Zerk, of Chicago, have greatly improved the agate 
collection. Another specimen of this mineral was secured by exchange 
with Mr. Earl L. Calvert, San Gabriel, California. 


Although there were no expeditions especially for the collection | 
of minerals, twenty-two mineral specimens were collected by the | 


Department’s expeditions organized for other purposes, and seven 
more came from expeditions of other Departments of the Museum.

CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING AND LABELING—GEOLOGY 


There were 1,567 new entries in the Department catalogues, 
which now comprise twenty-eight volumes. Adding these to previous 
entries, the total becomes 197,178. All specimens received during 
the year have been catalogued. During the checking of the collec- 
tions, currently in progress, a few unrecorded specimens have been 


_ found and they have also been entered in the catalogues. 


Copy for 1,609 specimen labels was prepared and sent to the 


_ Division of Printing, and all labels received from the Division were 
_ installed in the cases. There were 196 labeled prints of photographs 


added to the Department albums, which now contain 8,724 prints. 
One hundred twenty-one United States Geological Survey maps 


_ were received, filed and labeled, bringing the number of these maps 


now available to 4,519. 

The classified card catalogue of photographs, and the card index 
of meteorites, have been kept up to date. Work on the card catalogue 
of minerals has continued, and this catalogue is now nearly complete. 
Its preparation has involved much labor, as each mineral is inspected 
before entry, and checked against previous records. All doubtful 
specimens are re-identified. 

In the vertebrate paleontology section attention has been given 
to building up detailed, classified catalogues of the collections. The 
catalogue of the books and papers which constitute the working 
library on this subject has been brought to date. The bibliography 
of South American literature on fossil vertebrates, begun by Mr. 
Patterson as an individual undertaking, has received substantial 
additions. 

The workers assigned by the Works Progress Administration 
to this Department have made the preparation of these detailed 
records possible. Collections secured during earlier years of the 
Museum’s activity and entered in various catalogues have been 
brought together, many of them have been renumbered, and they 
have been re-entered compactly in one volume, which includes most 
fossil fishes of all periods, and a large section of the fossil reptiles. 
The records of the North American and European vertebrate fossil 
collections have been revised as to nomenclature and geological ho- 
rizon. For the classified catalogue of vertebrates, 637 specimen cards 
have been typed. Duplicate cards are being prepared so that the 
files will be readily accessible to all members of the Department. 

Cards typed and filed for the classified catalogues include 4,124 
for minerals; 1,301 for meteorites; 3,790 for vertebrate fossils and 


216 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPoRTS, VOL. XI 


their bibliography, and forty-eight for photographs. One thousand 
sixty-five vertebrate fossils were numbered, and numbers which had 
faded were repainted on 12,940 minerals. Typewritten labels were 
prepared for 3,095 minerals and 5,010 invertebrate fossils in the 
study collection. 


INSTALLATIONS AND REARRANGEMENTS—GEOLOGY 


The appearance of Hall 34 has been greatly improved by the 
reinstallation of the meteorite collection which fills the west half of 
the hall. The collection previously had been housed in an anti- 
quated type of case in which attractive installation was impossible. 
During 1937, the collection, except for seven large meteorites in indi- 
vidual cases, was withdrawn from exhibition for reclassification, and 
the old unsuitable cases were discarded. The collection was then re- 
organized, relabeled, and enlarged by the addition of many specimens 
formerly in storage, as well as sixteen meteorites acquired during the 
year. It now occupies fourteen new cases of the standard type used 
in the Department and seven smaller square cases. 

Shelves are not used in the new cases. Specimens are attached 
to the back by invisible fastenings or, where necessary, placed on neat 
individual supports. In the new arrangement the meteorites are 
divided into their three principal classes and arranged alphabetically 
under each class. Seven meteorites with deteriorated surfaces were | 
re-etched and repolished, and the large iron specimen from Glad- 
stone, Australia, was treated to cure scaling. 


| 
| 
| 
| 
/ 
Two specimens were added to the amber collection, and there | 
were sixteen additions to the exhibited mineral collection.

In Clarence Buckingham Hall (Hall 35) the principal work has 
been the preparation of new exhibits illustrating structural and | 
dynamic geology which, when complete, will occupy the east half | 
of the hall. In these exhibits specimens formerly displayed are aug- | 
mented by material from storage, as well as specimens collected | 
especially for this purpose during the past two years. | 

Collections illustrating metamorphism, folds, faults, joints, 
veins and dikes were prepared and installed in two cases. Seven | 
such cases are now complete, and nine remain to be prepared for the | 
collection devoted to physical geology. : 

Cleavage specimens, which occupied one-quarter of the case | 
illustrating the interior structure and composition of the earth, have | 
been replaced by more suitable material. | )

The model of the Natural Bridge of Virginia was reinstalled in a 
new case and placed in a more prominent position. 

Press of other work has interfered with the installation of the 
rock collection in the west half of Hall 35. Two cases of sandstones 
and conglomerates have been added during the year, leaving five 
cases yet to be installed. 

In Hall 36 (Economic Geology), deteriorated specimens of petro- 
leum products were replaced, and several thin transparent sections of 
coal were installed in a window where the light shines through them. 

Installation in Frederick J. V. Skiff Hall (Hall 37) was limited to 
minor readjustments and the addition of a few new specimens. 

A skeleton of the fossil ground sloth Hapalops, from Bolivia, was 


added to the vertebrate collections in Ernest R. Graham Hall (Hall 
38). The work of preparation and articulation of the bones was 
performed by Assistant Phil C. Orr. Although only one skeleton 


| 


was placed on exhibition, preparation of the fossils collected by the 


Marshall Field Paleontological Expeditions to South America, and 
| the more recent expeditions to Colorado, has proceeded steadily 
during the year. Two complete skeletons and 102 partial and frag- 


mentary specimens for the exhibition and study collections were 
prepared. 

As was the case last year, much attention was given to rearrange- 
ment and classification of the study collections on the third floor to 
make them more readily available. The reserve mineral and economic 
collections are now in fair shape. The reserve collections of physical 


geology specimens and rocks have been partially reclassified, but 
final arrangement must be postponed since many specimens from 


these collections now are being used for reinstallation of exhibits. 
Work has proceeded steadily on the reorganization of the inver- 


tebrate study collection. During the year 45,142 fossils in this 
collection have been cleaned, checked and arranged, and 5,010 labels 
_ have been written for them. It will require several more years of 


_ work to complete this reorganization. 


The study and reserve collections of vertebrate fossils in Room 101 
on the third floor have been rearranged. Many new labels have been 


_ added, and a new cabinet of seventy-four trays has been installed for 
_ storage of fossil fishes and the new collection of Paleocene and Lower 


Eocene mammals. The entire collection is being rearranged accord- 
ing to geologic horizons and genera. 

The permanent value of improvements made in 1937 and several 
preceding years is becoming daily more evident. Even now, although 


218 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


the work is far from complete, a few minutes spent in reference to the 
new classified catalogues in preparation often obviates hours of search 
by members of the staff. The more orderly arrangement of the reserve 
and study collections has progressed far enough to greatly facilitate 
the work of the staff, and has made possible greatly improved service 
by the Museum to students and specialists. A more important 
although inconspicuous benefit has been the preservation of the 
identification of thousands of specimens by replacing fading identi- 
fication numbers with permanent ones. This is another situation 
in which the WPA workers have been of great value. 


DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY 
EXPEDITIONS AND RESEARCH 


Five zoological expeditions were in the field during the year. 
Four of them, principally supported by contributions from President 
Stanley Field, were (1) an expedition to British Guiana and Brazil, 
conducted by Mr. Emmet R. Blake, Assistant Curator of Birds; 
(2) an expedition to the Pribilof Islands, Alaska, by Staff Taxidermist 
C. J. Albrecht; (8) an expedition to the southwestern United States, 
conducted by Mr. Karl P. Schmidt, Curator of Reptiles; and (4) an 
expedition to the coast of Maine for a group of North Atlantic fishes, — 
by Mr. Alfred C. Weed, Curator of Fishes, and Staff Taxidermist | 
Leon L. Pray. The fifth expedition, to southern Indo-China, was | 
personally financed and conducted by Chief Curator Wilfred H. | 
Osgood. | 

Assistant Curator Blake left for British Guiana late in January. | 
He collected in a number of localities along the coast, and on the | 
Berbice and Essequibo rivers. Among the 844 birds which he sent | 
back were specimens for habitat groups of hoatzins and of anis. — 
Accessory materials which accompanied the hoatzins are of particu- 
larly fine quality, and include the strange giant arum-like plant that 
forms the principal food of this “‘living fossil.”’ 

From British Guiana Mr. Blake proceeded, via Rio de Janeiro, | 
to Matto Grosso. There he made collections of specimens and | 
accessories for a habitat group of rheas or South American ostriches. | 
A large number of study specimens was also obtained. He next 
collected in the state of Sao Paulo, a region that is very poorly | 
represented in the collections of all American museums. Field work | 
was terminated in December. 

Taxidermist Albrecht spent June, July, and August on the | 


Pribilof Islands, Alaska, where he was engaged in obtaining material | 


DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY 219 


for a habitat group of fur-seals. Through the cordial co-operation 
of United States Commissioner Frank T. Bell, he was enabled to 
_ obtain transportation to and from the islands on government vessels, 
and to enjoy many privileges necessary to the success of the work. 
He received especially valuable and much appreciated assistance 

from Superintendent Harry J. Christoffers, as well as from Mr. 
Harry May, representative on the islands of the Fouke Fur Com- 

pany, St. Louis, Missouri. Ample material was obtained for the 

preparation of a large group showing seals of all ages, and illustrating 
many of their unusually interesting habits. 


| Curator Schmidt, with several associates, carried on work in the 

southwestern United States in Texas, Arizona, and California. The 

principal object was specimens to fill gaps in the exhibition collections 

of North American reptiles, but much additional material was 
| obtained. Two separate trips were made, with a slight interruption 
for return to the Museum in midsummer. On the first, Curator 
Schmidt was accompanied by Staff Taxidermist Leon L. Walters, 
and Dr. Alfred E. Emerson of the University of Chicago. They 
left by automobile on April 1, making a stop for collecting in the 
_Chisos Mountains, in the area proposed for ‘Big Bend National 
Park,” southwestern Texas. Thence they went via the Chiricahua 
Mountains to Tucson, Arizona, with visits to the Santa Catalina 
Mountains and to the Santa Ritas. At Yuma, Arizona, a two 
weeks’ stop was especially productive of satisfactory results in the 
accumulation of molds of specimens and color studies for Mr. Walters’ 
use in making exhibition models. Notable forms obtained include 
the desert iguana, the chuckawalla, the fringe-toed sand lizard, the 
desert gecko, and, among snakes, the remarkable “sidewinder,” a 
rattlesnake which progresses with a helical rolling motion in loose 
sand. Mr. Walters found opportunity to experiment with a new 
technique he has developed for celluloid infiltration of patches of 
ground to obtain natural bases for exhibited models of specimens. 


While the principal work of the expedition was concluded at 
Yuma, the party continued westward to San Diego, California, 
where many additions to its collections were made through the 
generosity and co-operation of Mr. L. M. Klauber, of the San Diego 
Natural History Society, Mr. C. B. Perkins, of the San Diego 
Zoological Society, and Dr. Walter Mosauer and Dr. R. C. Cowles,

both of the University of California at Los Angeles. 


After returning to Chicago in May, Curator Schmidt again left 
for the Southwest in August to spend three weeks, accompanied by 


3 


220 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Assistant Curator D. Dwight Davis, Mr. Bertil Hartelius, of Michigan 
State University, and Mr. Schmidt’s two sons, John and Robert. 
This party was joined by Mr. Walter L. Necker, of the Chicago 
Academy of Sciences, also interested in reptiles, and by Mr. F. E. 
Winters, of Hinsdale, Illinois, volunteer photographer. By informal 
agreement the party joined forces in the herpetological exploration 
of this region with the United States National Park Service, for which 
Mr. Tarleton F. Smith had been collecting in the summer seasons 
of 1986 and 19387. Interest in this zoologically remarkable area 
had been stimulated at Field Museum by the receipt of specimens 
for identification from the Park Service in 1936. 


Curator Weed and Taxidermist Pray spent about six weeks on 
the coast of Maine, collecting materials for a group to represent the 
fishes of the colder waters of the northern Atlantic coast of the 
United States. 

Through the courtesy of the Zoology Department of the Uni- 
versity of Maine, and Professor Joseph M. Murray, Director of the 
University of Maine Marine Station at Lamoine, the expedition 
secured excellent accommodations at the station. This station is 
located at the head of Frenchman’s Bay, a few miles from Bar 
Harbor, and within easy reach of many excellent collecting grounds. 
Plant and animal life is abundant and varied, and is representative 
of conditions prevailing over a large part of the north Atlantic region 
of North America. 

The expedition received the fullest possible co-operation of the 
staff and students at the station. Much information was secured 
that could hardly have been obtained anywhere else. Specimens 
taken by students on various collecting trips, and through activities 
of the station, were freely offered and gratefully received. In addition 
to the help given by those officially connected with the station, 
Dr. Carlos E. Cummings, Director of the Buffalo Museum of Science, 
spent much time assisting Mr. Pray in locating places where par- 
ticular information could be secured. 


The fishes of Frenchman’s Bay, and regions farther north and 
east, live close to rocks that are almost completely covered with a 
bewildering mass of brilliantly colored plants and animals. The 
general effect of the background so formed is almost like that of an 
oriental rug. It is planned to reproduce this effect as far as possible 
in a group to be installed in Hall O. Excellent specimens of some 
of the commoner fishes of the region were secured and will be shown 
in their natural positions in relation to the rocky walls. 


DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY 22) 


Chief Curator Osgood left for the Far East early in January, 
and spent about two months in French Indo-China, mainly in 
southern Annam. Although traveling alone, he was so courteously 


- received by French officials and so much assisted by native collectors 


formerly employed by the French naturalists, MM. Jean Delacour 
and Pierre Jabouille, that he was able in a short time to gather a 
varied collection numbering some 500 specimens. Most important 
was material for two large habitat groups, one of gibbons and 
one of green pea fowl. For much general assistance to Dr. 
Osgood, Field Museum is especially indebted to M. Auge, Résident 


Maire at Dalat, Annam, to M. Kieffer of Gougah Falls, and to 


missionaries of the American Missionary Alliance, especially Mr. 
Herbert Jackson and Mr. Gordon Smith. 


Owing to field activities of staff members, as well as to the fact 


that various manuscripts of considerable size are still in various 


| 


stages of preparation, the number of zoological publications issued 
by the Museum during the year is relatively small. Included are: 
Catalogue of Birds of the Americas, Part X (lIcteridae), by 
Associate Curator Charles E. Hellmayr; Notes on Sea-Basses of 
the Genus Centropristes, by Curator Alfred C. Weed; American Bats 
of the Subfamily Emballonurinae, by Curator Colin C. Sanborn; 


Notes on Snakes from the Yucatan Peninsula, by E. Wyllys Andrews; 


The History of Elaps collaris Schlegel, 1837-1937, by Curator Kar] P. 
Schmidt; and Variable Dentition in a Chinese Insectivore, by Chief 


Curator Wilfred H. Osgood. Publications by staff members which 
appeared under other than Field Museum auspices include the 


following: ‘“Notes on Bahama Bats,”’ by G. M. Allen and Colin C. 


Sanborn, Journal of Mammalogy, Vol. 18, pp. 226-228; ‘““‘The Season, 


Chicago Region,’ by Rudyerd Boulton and Frank A. Pitelka, Bird 
Lore, Nos. 3, 4, 5, 6; ‘Snakes Alive and How They Live’ (review), 
by Karl P. Schmidt, Copeia, 1937, pp. 143-144, and Science, Vol. 
86, p. 483; and Ecological Animal Geography, edited and translated 
by Karl P. Schmidt and W. C. Allee, published by John Wiley and 
Sons, New York. 

Curator Sanborn continued research on the classification of bats, 
and made considerable progress on a bibliographic index of literature 
and on preliminary work for the revision of six families of bats. 
During the year he visited the Museum of Zoology of the University 
of Michigan, Ann Arbor, the United States National Museum, 
Washington, D.C., the American Museum of Natural History, New 
York, and the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Cambridge, 


222 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Massachusetts. The collection of bats in each of these museums 
was examined, and about 600 specimens were studied and measured. 

Curator Boulton, of the Division of Birds, continued studies of 
African birds from time to time, and in December began several — 
weeks of continuous work on the birds of Angola at the American 
Museum of Natural History, in New York, and the Carnegie Mu- 
seum, in Pittsburgh. 

Associate Curator Hellmayr, working in Vienna, Paris, and 
London, completed his studies of perching birds for Part XI of the 
Catalogue of Birds of the Americas, which will be devoted to the 
sparrows and finches. For Part I, Nos. 1 and 2, further studies of 
game and water birds were made. Research Associate H. B. Conover 
collaborated with Dr. Hellmayr in studies of game birds. 

Research and other activities suffered a setback due to the 
sudden death of Mr. Leslie Wheeler, Trustee of the Museum, and 
Research Associate in the Division of Birds. His passing was a serious 
loss to the entire Department of Zoology, and to the Museum as a 
whole. He had endeared himself to the entire staff, and by daily 
attendance had become thoroughly engrossed in the plans and 
purposes of the institution. His substantial material support was 
matched in value by the personal relations so warmly established 
by him. As a result of his activities, Field Museum’s collections 
have been enriched by more than 614 specimens of birds of prey, 
and since his death specimens that he had ordered from collectors 
in remote parts of the world have continued to arrive. 


Research in the Division of Reptiles was concentrated on Central 
American collections, on material from southeastern Asia secured 
through Dr. Henry Field, Curator of Physical Anthropology, and 
on recently collected material from the Trans-Pecos region, Texas. 
Studies on the amphibians and reptiles of the Chicago region also 
were continued. 

Curator Weed finished studies on sea-basses of the genus Cen- | 
tropristes. He also identified material obtained by Dr. Henry Field | 
in the Near East, and carried on investigations of sculpins collected 
by himself in the North Atlantic. In addition, he made certain 
studies of burrowing eels in collaboration with Mr. Stewart Springer, | 
of the Bass Biological Laboratory, Englewood, Florida. | 

Assistant Curator Davis made various anatomical studies, in- | 
cluding a detailed dissection of the rare treeshrew Dendrogale. 
Other subjects were the structure of the skull in burrowing snakes, | 
and the digestive system in pollen-feeding bats. 


DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY 223 


ACCESSIONS—ZOOLOGY 


The total number of specimens added to the collections by formal 
accession is 16,402, including 5,283 insects. This is about 40 per cent 
more than in 1936. They are divided by zoological groups as follows: 
mammals 1,396; birds and birds’ eggs 2,676; amphibians and reptiles 
3,959; fishes 2,625; insects 5,283; lower invertebrates 463. Included 
are 585 vertebrate skeletons. Of the total, 6,007 were obtained 
from Museum expeditions, 7,173 by gift, 1,745 by exchange, and 
1,477 by purchase. 

Among the notable gifts of mammals are thirty-eight specimens 
from Iraq, presented by Dr. Henry Field, of the Department of 
Anthropology, augmenting his collections from that country in 

past years. Curator Karl P. Schmidt gave fifty-four small 

mammals from Illinois and Wisconsin, collected by his brother, the 
late F. J. W. Schmidt. A collection of twenty-two bats from the 
_ Bahamas was given by Dr. J. F. W. Pearson, of the University of 
_ Miami, Coral Gables, Florida. Through Professor Julian S. Huxley, 
_ five hedgehogs were donated by the Zoological Society of London. 
The Colorado Museum of Natural History, Denver, presented six 
pikas needed for exhibition and skeletons. Mr. A. J. Bujak, of 
Michigan State College, East Lansing, secured six much needed 
skeletons of beaver and one otter for the Museum, and Mrs. L. H. 
Ryckman, of Kirkland, Washington, sent in a skeleton of a mountain 
beaver. The Chicago Zoological Society, at Brookfield, Illinois, pre- 
sented thirty-two mammals, and the Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago, two. 


Birds numbering 589 were received as gifts from a large number 
of individuals, indicating a continuation of the co-operation between 
local naturalists and the Museum. The most important donor was 
the Chicago Zoological Society, which presented 130 rare birds 
in the flesh, most of which were used as osteological material, 
but some for other special studies. The Polish-American Chamber 
of Commerce of Warsaw presented five specimens, a nest, and 
accessories, for a white stork habitat group to be installed in the 
Hall of Birds (Hall 20). Mr. Alastair Gordon Cumming, of Forres, 
Scotland, presented sixteen specimens of red grouse and a peregrine 
_faleon for another habitat group. Mr. J. Andrews King, of Lake 
_ Forest, Illinois, presented ten specimens collected by him in Chile. 
Mr. Al Pflueger, Miami, Florida, gave eleven sea birds from the 
_ Bahamas; Mr. Melvin Traylor, Chicago, donated eighty-nine speci- 
_ mens collected by him in Yucatan; and Mr. Leon Mandel, Chicago, 
_ presented forty-six specimens collected in the West Indies. 


224 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


Gifts of amphibians and reptiles reached the rather large total of 
1,455. Most notable are 180 specimens collected in Yucatan by 
Mr. E. Wyllys Andrews, of Chicago; 640 specimens received from 
the Texas College of Arts and Industries, at Kingsville, through 
the interest of Professor J. C. Cross; and 223 specimens from western 
Texas, received from various divisions of the United States National 
Park Service. The Chicago Zoological Society and the Lincoln 
Park Zoo contributed numerous important specimens. 


Nineteen institutions and individuals presented specimens of 
fishes aggregating 1,429. Through the kindness of Messrs. Spencer W. 
Stewart and Robert J. Sykes, of New York, with the co-operation - 
of the American Museum of Natural History, Field Museum 
secured the skin of a twenty-five-foot whale shark that is now being 
prepared for exhibition. In order that preparation of this immense 
fish for exhibition might be done in the best manner possible, Mr. 
Stewart gave the Museum twenty-one photographs of this and 
other specimens. To these pictures, Captain John D. Craig, Chicago, 
added two clips of motion pictures of a whale shark that he saw 
in Mexican waters. These were found very valuable in showing 
some details of structure that could not be determined otherwise. 
The John G. Shedd Aquarium, Chicago, gave many selected speci- 
mens from Fiji, Hawaii, the Bahama Islands and other localities. 
Among them were an excellent specimen of the carpet shark of Aus- 
tralia, desired for exhibition, and a large jewfish that had lived 
six years in the Aquarium. The skeleton of the latter was preserved 
for possible use in the osteology exhibits. Many of the other speci- 
mens were particularly desired to fill gaps in the study series. Dr. 
Henry Field gave three very desirable lots of fishes, including speci- 
mens from the Dialah River, near Bagdad, Iraq; a small collection — 
from Leicestershire, England; and various marine fishes from Scot- 
land and the North Sea. Mr. Leon Mandel gave some very interest- | 
ing fishes from the West Indies, including two specimens of wahoo, 
a valuable game and food fish related to the king mackerels and the | 
tunas. One of these is being mounted for exhibition, and the skeleton | 
of the other is being prepared for possible later inclusion in the | 
osteological exhibits. The Bass Biological Laboratory, Englewood, | 
Florida, gave specimens of snake eels and worm eels which Mr. 
Stewart Springer of that institution is studying in collaboration with 
Curator Weed. The Stacja Morska (Marine Station), Hel, Poland, 
presented a series of fishes collected in the Baltic Sea by Professor | 
Kazimierz Demel. These were especially selected for comparison —

with fishes collected in Labrador, Greenland and Baffin Land by 
Curator Weed. The Department of Pharmacology of the University 
of Chicago presented the head of a ragfish, a strange creature found 
in deep water in the northern Pacific. This fish is very rarely seen 
at the surface, and very few specimens of it have ever come to 
museums. The Booth Fisheries Company, through its Boston 
office, furnished excellent specimens of rosefish that were urgently 
needed for a group of fishes of the North Atlantic, planned for 
Hall O. Professor H. W. Norris, of Grinnell College, in Iowa, has 
continued his interest in the Museum. He gave a specimen of the 
strange frilled shark, found in deep water off the coast of Japan. 
This will make it possible to prepare a life-size model of this fish 
for exhibition. This shark grows to a length of eight feet or more. 
It has an eel-shaped body, a mouth at the front of the head (instead 
of underneath as in most sharks), and gill membranes that form a 
ruffied fringe behind the head. Mr. Robert H. Becker, of the Chicago 
Tribune staff, sent in some interesting specimens caught by fisher- 
men in the Great Lakes region. 


A mounted specimen of blue marlin (“swordfish’’) of record size 
was presented by Mr. Michael Lerner, of New York. This fish, 
which weighed 537 pounds, was caught at Bimini, Bahama Islands, 
by Mr. Lerner. It was excellently prepared and will be a welcome 
addition to the exhibits that are to be installed in Hall O. 


Accessions in the Division of Anatomy and Osteology reached a 
_ total of 585, a large part of which represents contributions from the 
_ Chicago Zoological Society. 


| One-third of the insect acquisitions consisted of three gifts from 
Dr. Henry Field, of Chicago, who generously presented 1,750 
desirable specimens from Iran. Mr. Bertil Hartelius, of Homewood, 
Illinois, gave 335 insects from the Southwest, mainly Texas. From 
_ Mr. Edward J. Brundage, of Washington, Connecticut, there were 
- received as a gift 447 specimens, mostly from Barro Colorado Island, 
Canal Zone. A gift from Mr. Gordon Grant, of Los Angeles, Cali- 
_ fornia, consisted of 389 specimens from southern California. 


Material from Museum expeditions was more extensive than for 
several years past, well diversified, and especially calculated to fill 
definite needs. The expedition of Assistant Curator Blake to British 
Guiana and Brazil provided the required material for several habitat 
_ groups of birds, as well as general collections which, while principally 
of birds, included also mammals, reptiles, and fishes. Accessions 
| from this expedition total some 2,000 specimens from Guiana, and 


226 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


about 1,100 from Brazil. Similarly, Chief Curator Osgood made 
collections in French Indo-China, principally of mammals, but 
including various other vertebrates, and totaling about 500 speci- 
mens in all. Noteworthy area series of gibbons for a habitat group, 
and skins, nests, and eggs of the green pea fowl for another. 


The expeditions to the southwestern United States, conducted 
by Curator Schmidt and associates, collected 465 amphibians and 
reptiles, 159 mammals, and considerable skeletal material. 


Taxidermist Albrecht, who spent the summer on the Pribilof 
Islands, Alaska, was engaged principally in securing forty-one speci- 
mens of the fur-seal for a habitat group. He also collected thirty- 
eight specimens of sea birds. 


Curator Weed and Taxidermist Pray, on their expedition to the 
Maine coast, collected 319 fishes, most of which are for use in a 
habitat group. 


Insects received from various expeditions number 1,909. These 
include 978 from the western United States, collected by the zoo- 
logical expeditions to the Southwest, and by the paleontological — 
expedition of the Department of Geology to Colorado. 


An important exchange of mammals with the United States 
National Museum, Washington, D.C., was concluded during the 
year, the final result to Field Museum being the acquisition of 
536 highly desirable specimens belonging to many different mam- 
malian groups, and covering a wide geographic range. By exchange 
with Dr. H. J. V. Sody, of Buitenzorg, Java, there were received 
109 small mammals from Java, Borneo, Bali, and other East Indian 
Islands. Exchanges of small mammals, principally bats, were made 
with Dr. Nagamichi Kuroda and Dr. Mitosi Tokuda of Japan. 


Birds received in exchanges number 151, and reptiles and am- | 
phibians, 1,225. These came from various institutions and from 
individuals, including the Naturhistorisches Museum of Basel, Swit- | 
zerland; the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Cambridge, Massa- 
chusetts; the Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh; the Museum of Zoology 
of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor; Dr. Edward H. Taylor, 
Lawrence, Kansas, and Dr. Charles KE. Burt, Winfield, Kansas.

Purchases during the year were mostly of small lots of especially | 
desirable specimens from various parts of the world, including West 
Africa, Tanganyika, East Indies, West Indies, and Ecuador. They | 
include 110 mammals, 953 birds, and 414 amphibians and reptiles. |

CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING AND LABELING—ZOOLOGY 


The number of zoological specimens catalogued was 13,923. 
These are divided as follows: mammals 2,459; birds 5,448; birds’ 
eggs (sets) 2,265; amphibians and reptiles 2,231; fishes 1,520. Osteo- 
logical and anatomical specimens were catalogued under divisional 
subject and by special card index to the number of 409. 


In the Division of Mammals, work has continued in reattaching 
original labels to specimens and in renumbering skulls to agree with 
skins. All specimens received during the year have been provided 
with typewritten labels, and all skulls cleaned have been numbered. 
About 100 bottles with alcoholic specimens have been labeled, and 
shelf-labels have been supplied in the cases where they are stored. 
Some 400 cards were added to the index of mammals, and many 
others were revised and retyped. Photographs of mammals were 
classified, remounted, and some 900 of them were labeled. 


The reorganization of the collection of birds has been greatly 
advanced. During the year 17,976 specimens have been completely 
worked out, bringing the finished total to 32,548, or nearly one-third 
of the entire collection. This involves checking the identification 
and all data for each study skin, indexing by a double card system, 
and typing a new label which is sewed to the original. Coincident 
with this work has been the compiling of all geographic data relating 
to the collection, especially notes from Museum expeditions. These 
data have been assembled in a series of maps of a standard size fitted 

‘into a loose-leaf atlas. Fifteen such maps have been completed, and 
fifty-three other maps and charts have been drawn for other purposes, 
such as special exhibits, publications, labels, and base maps. 
a A special room was constructed in an unused part of a corridor 
on the third floor to house the collections of birds’ eggs. Eight air- 
tight cases were installed to accommodate the present collections 
and allow for adequate expansion. The arrangement and cataloguing 
of the magnificent R. M. Barnes Collection was about one-half com- 
pleted under the supervision of Mr. William Beecher. The Museum’s 
other egg collections, which had been in storage for more than twenty 
years, were unpacked and partially arranged. Altogether 1,246 sets 
of eggs were permanently arranged, labeled and indexed. 


| Fifteen new steel cases for bird skins were installed and occupied. 
| The entire study collection, about 100,000 specimens, was arranged 
‘in proper sequence. Primitive birds, mainly of large size, were 


transferred to the east gallery on the fourth floor.

228 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPoRTS, VOL. XI 


Throughout the year at least one man, supplied by the Works 
Progress Administration, was engaged continuously in the much 
needed work of remodeling the flat bird skins and degreasing or 
repairing others. 

Cataloguing of reptiles was kept up to date, and minor rearrange- 
ments of the collection were carried out, including shelf-labeling 
and transferring of much material from temporary containers to 
permanent ones. 

In the Division of Fishes, 1,520 specimens were catalogued and 
some 23,500 numbered tags were prepared and attached to speci- 
mens. In addition, about 1,600 labels were written and placed in 
glass specimen bottles. Work has continued steadily in renew- 
ing faded or torn labels, separating material in large jars and tanks, 
and generally improving the accessibility of the material. The 
Curator reports that ‘“‘the condition of the collection of fishes is 
in general much more satisfactory than for a long time previously. 
The study collections are being brought into such shape that some 
valuable material is available for the first time in many years. 
Practically all specimens that have been identified can now be found 
readily.”’ 

Growth of the osteological collection made necessary further 
expansion and rearrangement of storage facilities. Much economy 
of space was accomplished by cutting down and refitting drawers 
and boxes. About seventy skeletons were degreased, epiphyses 
were replaced wherever necessary, and the entire collection was 
checked for accuracy of labeling and numbering. All new material 
was card-indexed, and records were kept up to date. Six hundred 
and forty mammal skulls were cleaned. 

For preservation and arrangement of insects, nine steel cabinets 
containing 505 glass-topped drawers were installed and partially 
occupied. The time of Curator William J. Gerhard and Assistant 
Curator Emil Liljeblad was largely devoted to preparation of shells 
for exhibition, but through the services of several assistants nearly 
all the year’s acquisitions of insects were pinned and labeled. 

Volunteer workers assisted from time to time in the work of sey- 
eral divisions of the Department. In the Division of Birds general 
assistance was received from Messrs. King Mather and William 


Mitten. In the same Division Mr. James von der Heydt assisted | 
in remaking old bird skins. Mrs. Hermon Dunlap Smith, of Lake © 
Forest, Illinois, Associate in the Division, was engaged in studies of — 


the plumages of American wood warblers.

DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY 229 


In the Division of Reptiles assistance was received from Messrs. 
Fred Bromund, E. Wyllys Andrews, and O. H. Meeker. Mr. 
E. F. Peternell spent some time preparing bird skeletons, and 
Mr. Macklin de Nictolis made some special dissections of anatomical 
material. For nearly three months during the summer, Mr. George 
Miller, of South Bend, Indiana, was a volunteer worker in the 
Division of Insects. He inspected some 800 insect drawers, and 
disinfected them where necessary. He also checked a collection 
of moths for systematic arrangement. 

During 1937, the cumulative results of continued assistance 
from the Works Progress Administration have become more ap- 
parent, and numerous projects have neared completion with an 
accompanying feeling throughout the Department that all lines of 
work and all types of collections, records, etc., are in better condition 
than ever before. The number of WPA workers assigned to the 
Department has varied somewhat. In November, perhaps an 
average month, there were 57, distributed as follows: Taxidermy, 
preparation and exhibition work, 21; map making and drafting, 4; 
Division of Mammals, 5; Division of Birds, 10; Division of Reptiles, 
3; Division of Fishes, 1; Division of Anatomy and Osteology, 10; 
Division of Insects, 3. 


INSTALLATIONS AND REARRANGEMENTS— ZOOLOGY 


Four habitat groups of mammals, and three of birds, were com- 
pleted and opened to public view during the year. The mammalian 
subjects are harbor seals, Asiatic takin, African klipspringer, and 
-guereza monkey. The birds are all African, and include species 
characteristic of widely varying natural conditions. 


The harbor seals, well-known marine mammals, appear resting 
on kelp-covered boulders in a scene representative of the coast of 
Washington. The species is a common one on both Atlantic and 
Pacific coasts of North America and, although familiar to many 
people, is seldom seen out of the water. The group was collected 

and prepared by Staff Taxidermist C. J. Albrecht. The background 
_is by Staff Artist Charles A. Corwin. 
‘The Asiatic takin is represented by five animals ranging in age 
from a young calf to an old male of massive proportions. The 
- animal belongs to the group known as goat-antelopes, and is some- 
_ what grotesque in appearance. It is shown on its favorite grounds 

in a dense growth of bamboo and evergreen near the timberline on 
a steep mountain side in western China. The specimens were col- 


230 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPoRTS, VOL. XI 


lected by Mr. Floyd Tangier Smith, leader of the Marshall Field 
Zoological Expedition to China (1930-32). The group was pre- 
pared by Staff Taxidermist Julius Friesser, assisted by Mr. Frank C. 
Wonder; the background is by Staff Artist Corwin and Mr. Arthur 
G. Rueckert. 

The groups of klipspringer and guereza monkey represent 
medium-sized African mammals. One is shown on an open, rocky 
height and the other in the thick foliage of a large forest tree. The 
klipspringers were collected in Kenya Colony by the late Carl E. 
Akeley. The monkeys are from the Field Museum—Chicago Daily 
News Abyssinian Expedition (1926-27). Both groups were prepared 
by Staff Taxidermist Leon L. Pray. 

In the synoptic or classified exhibits of mammals, several im- 
portant additions were made. A case of Old World cats was rein- 
stalled, with the addition of four specimens, bringing the total to 
ten. Among them are a Kaffir cat and a cheetah, collected by the 
Vernay—Lang Kalahari Expedition (1930) and presented by Mr. 
Arthur S. Vernay, of New York and London. There is also a caracal 
eat, presented by Captain Harold A. White, of New York, and a 
very beautiful clouded leopard from northern India. The animals 
used in this installation were prepared by Assistant Taxidermist — 
W. E. Eigsti. | 

An important addition to George M. Pullman Hall (Halli 18) | 
was a fine example of the South African oryx or gembuck. This | | 
was obtained by the Vernay—Lang Kalahari Expedition, and was | 
mounted by Taxidermist Friesser. 

The three habitat groups of birds described in the 1936 Report— — 
Mount Cameroon birds, weaver-birds and Kalahari Desert birds— _ 
were completed and opened to the public in April. They form an — 
African alcove in the Hall of Birds (Hall 20). Mrs. Oscar Straus, | 
of New York, sponsor of the Straus West African Expedition which — 
collected the material for the first two of these, visited the Museum — 
on the day of their opening. The Kalahari birds were collected by — 
Mr. Vernay, who presented them to the Museum. The weaver-bird | 
group was prepared by Staff Taxidermist John W. Moyer; the other | | 
two by Staff Taxidermist Arthur G. Rueckert. Staff Artist Corwin | 
painted the backgrounds. 

Four additional bird groups are nearing completion. They in- 
clude a group of albatrosses and other pelagic birds from Laysan 
Island in the mid-Pacific, which is being prepared by Staff Taxi- | 
dermist Pray. A white stork nesting scene on a housetop in a Polish |

village is being constructed by Taxidermists Moyer and Rueckert, 
_who are also installing a nesting colony of giant orioles from Guate- 
mala, and a group consisting of two species of toucans feeding on 
the abundant berries of a forest tree in Guatemala. 

Preparator Frank H. Letl supervised the making of accessories 
for all habitat groups except those of the harbor seal and the guereza 
monkey. 


An exhibit of restorations of fossil birds was installed in Hall 21 

_as an introduction to the subject of the ancestry of birds. Models of 
eight extinct birds that are sufficiently well known to permit restora- 
\ tion are shown. They include the famous Archaeornis, 135 million 
years old, known only from two specimens obtained in Bavaria; 
the Cretaceous fish-eating birds, Ichthyornis and Hesperornis, from 
_ the chalk beds of Kansas; the giant Diatryma and quail-like Gallinu- 
loides of the lower Eocene of Wyoming; Phororhacos, the predacious 
| crane of southern Argentina; the Moa (Dinornis) of New Zealand, 
and the Elephant-bird (Aepyornis) of Madagascar. Dvinornis, 
| Aepyornis, and Diatryma are shown in quarter-scale models, accom- 
panied by natural size heads in full relief. The other five are natural 
size. The restorations were directed by Curator Rudyerd Boulton, 
and modeled in plaster, wax, and composition by Messrs. Gus Schmidt 
and Frank Gino, WPA artists. Scale drawings and diagrammatic 
‘details of the known skeletons were made by Mr. John Janecek. 


Numerous models of amphibians and reptiles were made during 
| the year and are awaiting final installation. Notable among them 
are Australian forms, the water dragon, blotched skink, and bandy- 
Bendy, the last a strikingly marked black and white ringed snake. 
All these were based on material received from the Chicago Zoo- 
logical Society. A South American tree boa was prepared from 
an exceptionally fine specimen received from the Lincoln Park 
Zoo, Chicago. 

No exhibition work was done on insects, Curator Gerhard and 
Assistant Curator Liljeblad being continuously engaged in organiz- 
ing, labeling and arranging an exhibit of shells. A careful selection 
‘of relatively large and attractive species of the latter was installed 
lin four new cases with enclosed top-lighting. The number of speci- 
‘mens displayed is 1,791, representing 841 species of eighty-four 
families of mollusks. Actual installation was made by Preparator 
Herbert E. Weeks, an experienced installer provided through the 
ee ration of the Department of Anthropology.

A screen devoted to fish skeletons was added to the systematic 
series of mounted skeletons in Hall 19. All important groups of 
vertebrates are now represented in this hall. A further addition to 
the same hall was the installation, by Assistant Curator Davis, 
of an exhibit illustrating the history of the human skull, and com- 
paring it with other vertebrate skulls. This is the first of a proposed 
series of comparative anatomical exhibits which will supplement 
the mounted skeletons. 


The Department of Zoology ended the year in much better con- 
dition as to equipment, and far better organized for general effec- 
tiveness, than at any previous time. Presumably, such a statement 
could have been made after any active year, but 19387 seems to have 
been particularly characterized by the realization or approximate 
realization of various long-time needs, and the bringing of the 
whole organization to a stage from which every line of work can 
proceed with comparatively little lost motion and wasted effort. 
This is due in no small part to the increased effectiveness of WPA 
workers, most of whom are now so well selected and well trained that 
they fully justify the time, effort and money that have been expended 
on them. It is clearly evident that extra man-power was needed, 
and the WPA has furnished it to a large extent. Other important 
factors in the marked improvement are the increased storage facilities 
provided by new cases, and the very definite, planned results of the 
relatively inexpensive but highly important expeditions conducted 
during the year. The research collections are now in better order 
than at any previous time, and material is in hand for uninterrupted 
continuation of exhibition plans. 


THE N. W. HARRIS PUBLIC SCHOOL EXTENSION 


On December 1, 1937, this Department ended its twenty-fifth 
year of operation. This first quarter century has been marked by 
continuous growth and improvement. Because of the emphasis 


now placed by schools on visual education, the program of making | 
the educational values of the Museum’s natural history exhibits | 


available to school children in their classrooms has gained in im- 
portance. ‘Teachers, as well as pupils, have been encouraged to 
take fuller advantage of the Museum’s educational and cultural 
resources. 


School extension work today is recognized as an essential activity 


by the leading museums of the world. As a pioneer in this field, _ 


N. W. Harris PUBLIC SCHOOL EXTENSION Zoe 


_ the Harris Extension has been consulted in the past year by repre- 
sentatives of several institutions, particularly the Illinois State 


Museum, Springfield, Illinois, the Auckland Institute and Museum, 
Auckland, New Zealand, and the Australian Museum, Sydney, 


_ Australia. Details of the methods employed in its administration 
have been useful to others considering inauguration of similar 


activities. 
A serious loss of leadership was felt by the staff of the Depart- 
ment in the death of Director Stephen C. Simms in January, 1937. 


Mr. Simms was the first Curator, a position which he held from 


December 1, 1912, until his appointment as Director of the Museum 
in 1928. Even in his new office he continued active supervision of 
the Harris Extension until his death. Thus the first quarter century 
of the organization and development of the Department may well 


| be regarded as one of Mr. Simms’ outstanding achievements. 


During 1937 the routine work of the Department has been kept 
at a high level of efficiency. Thirteen new exhibits were installed, 
and five more are scheduled for completion early in January. These 


include exhibits showing the wood lily, the tall or later buttercup, 


some common orders of insects, frogs and toads of the Chicago 
area, the red-bellied woodpecker, the mourning dove, and two kinds 
of jaeger. Nine duplicate exhibits, which were no longer needed, 
were dismantled and the cabinets used for new installations. Due 
to the increase in the number and variety of subjects now available 
for distribution, the desirability of having more than four cases 


illustrating the same subject has lessened. Currently there are 


1,233 exhibits dealing with 416 subjects, a diversification which 
makes it possible so to schedule circulation of cases that a pupil 


in the public schools will be unlikely to see a particular exhibit 
_™more than once during his entire school life. 


! 


The work of reinstallation, necessitated by the change from 


| black backgrounds and labels to the present standard buft-colored 


type, was continued as time permitted. Twenty-eight exhibits 


_ were completely overhauled and replaced in newly painted cases, 
improvements in the installation method or replacements of material 


_ being made wherever required. The inevitable damage, occurring 


_ through accidents or careless handling of the cases in the schools, 
_Necessitated repairs on 225 cabinets. The injuries for the most 
_ Part consisted of broken glass, cracked or splintered woodwork, or 
| broken label frames. Only one serious loss occurred, the total 
_ destruction of two cases and their contents in a school fire. 


234 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


The number of schools and institutions participating in the regular 
fortnightly delivery of two Harris Extension cases each, increased by — 
nineteen during the year. The total number is now 465. These 
include 390 public elementary and high schools, thirty-nine denomina- 
tional schools, nine private schools, and a number of Chicago Public 
Library branches, Y. M.C. A. branches, hospitals, boys’ clubs, settle- 
ments, and detention homes. 

Special loans of exhibits were made to the United Charities’ 
summer camp at Algonquin, Illinois, and to the International Live 
Stock Exposition held in the amphitheater of the Union Stock Yards. 
Reauests by schools for the loan of particular exhibits, in addition 
to those regularly received, were granted. 

The two Department trucks traveled a total distance of 10,339 
miles in the distribution of the 930 cases kept in circulation. This 
figure is less than that reported in recent years because of shortened 
school terms, and the opening of new streets which permit better 
routing of the trucks. 

All of the cases were thoroughly inspected, cleaned and polished 
while they were in storage at the Museum during the summer 
vacation period of the schools. This work was done by the men who 
distribute them during the school year. 

It is difficult to make an accurate estimate of the value of the 
Harris Extension service. However, the flood of voluntary letters — 
of appreciation received from principals, teachers, and pupils in- | 
dicates the really vital interest that is taken in the educational work — 
done by this Department. 


THE JAMES NELSON AND ANNA LOUISE RAYMOND 
FOUNDATION FOR PUBLIC SCHOOL AND 
CHILDREN’S LECTURES 


During 1937 the James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond 
Foundation has continued to provide series of entertainments, lec- _ 
tures, and other activities for the education and enjoyment of chil- — 
dren. These included special patriotic programs as well as the | 
customary spring and autumn courses of motion pictures presented | 
in the James Simpson Theatre of the Museum. Guide-lecture tours © 
of the exhibits also were made available to parties of children through- _ 
out the year, and extension lectures were given in classrooms and © 
assembly halls of the schools. The year has been notable for the — 
great number of groups from other states which have requested the

guide-lecture service, and for the increase in numbers of kinder- 
garten and first grade groups given assistance. The lectures presented 
in the schools were in greater demand than at any previous period 
in the history of the Foundation. 


ENTERTAINMENTS FOR CHILDREN—RAYMOND FOUNDATION 


The purchase of a 16-millimeter sound projector for use in the 
James Simpson Theatre has made possible the showing of many 
excellent educational films not possible when only the silent equip- 
ment was available. The programs in the Saturday morning series

In addition to the regular series of entertainments, two special 
programs were offered in February as follows: 


February 12—Lincoln’s Birthday Program: My Father; Native State. 
February 22—-Washington’s Birthday Program: Washington as General; Wash- 
ington as President. 

Nineteen programs in all were offered in the Simpson Theatre 
for the children of the city and its suburbs. Total attendance at 
these entertainments was 27,775. Of this number, 4,857 came to 
the special programs, 12,088 to the spring course, and 11,335 to the 
autumn series. 

Among newspapers which gave publicity to the programs were 
the Chicago Daily News, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Herald and 
Examiner, Chicago Evening American, Chicago Daily Times, and 
Downtown Shopping News. 

Expressions of appreciation for films loaned for the programs are 
herewith made to the Motion Picture Bureau of the Young Men’s 
Christian Association, Chicago; Castle Films, Chicago; the Cunard- 
White Star Line (Chicago office); and the Fouke Fur Company, St. 
Louis, Missouri. 


MUSEUM STORIES FOR CHILDREN—RAYMOND FOUNDATION 


Members of the Raymond Foundation staff prepared two 
series of Museum Stories for Children. Printed by Field Museum 
Press in folder form, these were distributed to all children attending 
the entertainments. The subjects of these stories correlated with 
films shown, or slides used, on the programs given in the Simpson 
Theatre. The titles of the stories in each series follow: 


Series X XVITI—Flies Good and Bad; The Paiute Indians; Eclipses; Vicious 
Dwellers of the Coral Forests; Dragon-flies, Past and Present; Japanese 
Homes; Bird and Animal Partnerships; The Raccoons and Their Cousins. 


Series XXIX—The Giant Panda; ‘‘Sea Rivers’; From Glow-worm to Firefly; 
The Story of Grasses; The Common Newt or Red Eft; Blow-guns and Their 
Users; Glimpses of Samoa; Clouds; Termites. 

In addition to the regular distribution effected at entertainments, 
copies of these stories were distributed to children during the sum- 
mer by displaying them at the North Door in a holder from which 
they could be taken. The year’s total distribution of the stories was 
36,000 copies. 


LECTURE TOURS FOR CHILDREN—RAYMOND FOUNDATION 


Classwork in the exhibition halls was extended to the following 
groups:

groups from the public schools of the city, and seventy-two from 
suburban schools, were given lecture service varying from forty-five 
to sixty minutes depending on the age of the children and the sub- 
jects to be studied. Many more groups could have been handled 
had more lecturers been available. On November 30 and December 
2, parties of 4-H Club boys and girls visited the Museum for special 
tours in the halls devoted to the life of prehistoric plants, animals 
and man, and in the Hall of Races of Mankind. The total number 
of National 4-H Clubs Congress delegates who attended these 
special tours was 1,352.

| ACCESSIONS—-RAYMOND FOUNDATION 


For use in the Theatre, the small lecture hall, and in extension 
lectures, the Raymond Foundation acquired during the year, 521 
slides made by the Division of Photography. The Museum IIlus- 
_ trator colored 365 of these. 


238 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


The Foundation received also three natural color photographs 
on glass of the motmot and tanager, presented by Mr. Philip M. 
Chancellor, Hollywood, California; a sound motion picture film, 
Alluring Bali, purchased from Burton Holmes Films, Inc., Chicago; 
a portable stereopticon projector and screen presented by Mr. 
Clarence B. Mitchell, of Chicago, who also gave twenty-five natural 
color slides made by him of jades in the Museum collection; and 
200 feet of unique motion picture film of Su-Lin, the young giant 
panda at the Chicago Zoological Park in Brookfield, purchased from 
Mr. C. J. Albrecht, Chicago, who was the photographer. 


LECTURE TOURS AND MEETINGS FOR ADULTS—RAYMOND FOUNDATION 


Guide-lecture service was made available without charge to 
clubs, conventions, colleges, hospitals and other organizations, and 
to Museum visitors in general. During July and August, morning 
tours were given in addition to the regular afternoon ones. Printed 
monthly schedules were distributed at the main entrance for the 
information of visitors. Co-operating agencies such as libraries and 
other civic centers throughout the city, and in the suburbs as well, 
also distributed schedules. The public tours included 103 of a general 
nature, and 196 covering specific subjects. These were taken 
advantage of by 282 groups, comprising 5,180 individuals. In addi- 
tion to the public tours, there were special tours for 127 groups from 
colleges, clubs, hospitals and other organizations, in which 2,985 
persons participated. 

The James Simpson Theatre was used by the Board of Education 
on June 3 for commencement exercises for 780 foreign-born adults. 
On November 8, Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Evans, of the Canal Zone, 
lectured in the Theatre on ‘‘Plants of Panama” before a specially 
invited group of botanists. The Raymond Foundation staff 
assisted in handling these two meetings. 

The Theatre was used also by the Chicago Park District for a 
prize-distributing program on the evening of January 15. There 
were 400 present. On January 29, the Chicago Recreation Com- 
mission held graduation exercises in the Theatre for the Recreation 
Training Institute, with 390 present. 


The use of the small lecture hall was granted to three small 
groups for educational purposes. Two talks were given to women’s 
groups by Raymond Foundation staff members. The attendance 
was 123.

LECTURES FOR ADULTS 239 


SUMMARY OF ATTENDANCE AT ENTERTAINMENTS, LECTURES, 
TOURS, ETC.—RAYMOND FOUNDATION 


The number of groups reached through the activities of the 
James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation for Public 
School and Children’s Lectures totaled 1,877 and the aggregate 
attendance included in these groups was 239,724 individuals. 


The personal interest of Mrs. James Nelson Raymond, evidenced 
not only by her continued financial support but also by her intimate 
knowledge of the methods, material, and objectives of the Lecture 
Foundation, is greatly appreciated by the members of the staff. 


LECTURES FOR ADULTS 


The Museum’s sixty-seventh and sixty-eighth courses of free 
lectures for adults were given on Saturday afternoons in the James 
Simpson Theatre during the spring and autumn months. As usual, 
they were illustrated with motion pictures and stereopticon slides.

LAYMAN LECTURE TOURS 


An innovation of the year was a series of Sunday afternoon 
lecture tours, inaugurated on October 8. The conductor of the 
tours is Mr. P. G. Dallwig, a Chicago business man, and Member of 
the Museum, whose deep interest in scientific subjects has led him 
to give his services, as Layman Lecturer, without cost to the 
Museum or to those participating in the lecture tours. Parties 
meet at 2 P.M. in Stanley Field Hall. To join the groups it is 
necessary to register and receive identification tickets, as the num- 
ber that can be taken on each tour is limited. The subjects presented 
were as follows: 


October (five Sundays)—The Parade of the Races (Hall of Man). 
November (four Sundays)—Nature’s ‘‘March of Time”’ (Hall of Historical Geology). 


December (four Sundays)—Digging up Our Ancestral Skeletons (Hall of the Stone 
Age of the Old World). 


Thirteen of these lectures were given, and the number of persons 
attending was 905. 


SUMMARY OF ATTENDANCE AT LECTURES, ETC. 


The Museum rendered instruction or other services during the 
year to a total of 1,909 groups, aggregating 257,913 individuals. 
These figures include the 1,877 groups and 239,724 individuals — 
reached through the activities of the James Nelson and Anna Louise 
Raymond Foundation for Public School and Children’s Lectures, 
and, in addition, the 16,494 persons attending the adult lectures, the 
905 persons attending the special Sunday afternoon lecture tours, 
and 790 persons who attended two meetings of outside organizations 
to which the James Simpson Theatre and the small lecture hall were 
made available.

LIBRARY 241 


THE LIBRARY 


The year 1937 has been marked by further development of the 
services which the Library offers both to scientists and the general 
public. Continued progress in this direction is one of the principal 
objectives toward which the Library staff is constantly striving. 

The Library at the end of the year contained more than 105,000 
books and pamphlets. Part of these are on the shelves of the General 
Library; additional thousands are allocated to Departmental 
Libraries, where they function as exceedingly useful collections on 
special subjects. Records for all are made in the General Library. 
Upon request, books are brought from different parts of the building 
to the Reading Room of the General Library. During 1937, more 
than 10,000 parts of periodicals and publications, exclusive of 
books, were received and prepared for readers, and 19,808 cards 
were added to the catalogue. 

A much needed inventory of the Library has been made, and in 
two of the Departmental Libraries the books have been partially 
rearranged, in order to make needed space. Many volumes that had 
been in use for years urgently needed repairs, and some of these have 
now received careful treatment by binders assigned by the Works 
Progress Administration. This has added years to the usefulness 
of the books and, incidentally, has much improved their appearance. 
The WPA workers have also bound many books which have long 
needed attention. A large amount of this work remains to be done. 
The work of treating leather-bound books with oil, and cleaning 
them, was continued during part of the year. 


The translation of some Russian and Polish papers on anthropo- 
logical subjects was also accomplished by WPA workers. 


More people are learning that the Museum Library has material 
not to be found elsewhere in the city, and consequently increasing 
demands are being made upon its resources. Students of various 
universities and other institutions are among those making extensive 
use of the Library. Persons searching for rare source material often 
find it here. Others seeking to learn what is being done today in 
various scientific fields also obtain valuable assistance. Authors, 
scientific and otherwise, radio entertainers, writers of motion picture 
scenarios, and advertising writers and artists, are among those seeking 


_ help from the Library. 


As pointed out in previous Reports, the Library depends for 
its growth primarily on its exchanges of publications with other 


242 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


scientific and educational institutions. It is a pleasure to note the 
addition in 1987 of much valuable material through advantageous 
new exchange arrangements effected with various institutions and 
individuals. Also, several exchange correspondents have graciously 
sent earlier as well as current numbers of their publications, thus 
helping to complete the Museum’s files. These publications include 
material of value to all Departments. Some recent numbers of Field 
Museum’s Geological Series were sent to various individuals who 
had not previously been exchanging publications with this institution. 
The response to these has been very gratifying, and valuable contacts 
have thus been made. 

The Library was fortunate in 1937 in being enabled to renew 
subscriptions to a few more of the periodicals formerly received and 
then discontinued for several years. These, like those renewed in 
the previous years, included the intervening volumes so as to com- 
plete various sets. Unfortunately, however, there are many files of 
periodicals which still lack some volumes, and it is hoped that these 
may gradually be completed. This year twenty of the early volumes 
of Journal of Botany were secured, and Zoologischer Anzeiger was 
completed, as were also American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 
Asia Major, Gartenflora, Ostasiatische Zeitschrift, Zeitschrift fiir 
Stugetierkunde, Zoologische Garten, and Zeitschrift fiir die gesamte 
Ornithologie. Each one renewed adds a bit more to the efficiency of 
the Library, as such periodicals contain the latest discoveries and 
newest achievements of science. 

Every year brings further demands for books on new scientific 
advances. Each new exhibit installed is preceded by calls for more 
books, and during the past year an encouraging number has been 
added. Also, there has fortunately been opportunity to purchase 
some books, which have long been among the special desiderata, 
and which include several very difficult to obtain. Outstanding 
among these should be mentioned: F. Fontana, Ricerche Fisiche sopra 
il Veleno della Vipera; J. E. Gray, Spicilegia Zoologica; M. Maki, 
Monograph of the Snakes of Japan; Prinz zu Wied-Neuwied Maxi- 
milian, Reise nach Brasilien, Atlas Abbildungen zur Naturgeschichte 
Brasiliens; Johann Baptist von Spix, Animalia nova... Lacertarum 
... Serpentium, Testudinum et Ranarum, and J. Wagler, Serpentiwm 
Brasiliensium (in J. B. von Spix). 

The Library has also purchased some of the later and present- 
day books that are important, among which are the following: A. 
Brauer, Beitrdége zur Kenntniss der Entwicklungsgeschichte und 


a

Anatomie der Gymnophionen; P. Buchanan, Journey to Madras 
Through the Countries of Mysore, Canara and Malabar; C. H. Curran

English Dictionary; C. G. and B. Z. Seligman, Pagan Tribes of the 
Nilotic Sudan; R. W. Swallow, Ancient Chinese Bronze Mirrors; and 
J. R. de la Torre-Bueno, A Glossary of Entomology. 

Sections of the latest edition of Stieler’s Atlas of Modern Geography 
are being received as issued, as are also the parts of the Dictionary 
of American English, edited by Sir William Craigie. These are being 
published at irregular intervals. 

President Stanley Field presented Alexander Wilson’s American 


_ Ornithology: Plates, published in 1829. Also, by gift of Mr. Field 


: 


| 


the Library has received a copy of Stanley Charles Mott’s Chinese 
Jade Throughout the Ages, and 8. Kip Farrington’s Atlantic Game 
Fishing. Dr. E. E. Sherff, of Chicago, has again made many valuable 
additions to the collection of botanical books. 

In addition to those who have given books, there are about 150 
other persons who have presented smaller publications as issued. 
These are most desirable, and provide material that is of great use. 


_ The Library gratefully acknowledges these gifts. 


Several members of the Museum Staff have generously given 
current numbers of various periodicals, and President Field again 


_ presented weekly the numbers of the Illustrated London News. 


The Library wishes to acknowledge with gratitude the assistance 


_ given by other libraries through loans of books which were needed 
_ for consultation. Among these should be mentioned especially the 


John Crerar Library, Chicago; the Libraries of the University of 
Chicago; Newberry Library, Chicago; Library of the Art Institute 


_ of Chicago; The Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.; United 


244 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


States Department of Agriculture, Washington; the Library of 
Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois; Library of the Missouri 
Botanical Garden, St. Louis, Missouri; the Library of Peabody 
Museum, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts; and the 
Library of the American Museum of Natural History, New York. 


DIVISION OF PRINTING 


The number of copies of publications and miscellaneous printing 
jobs produced in the Division of Printing during 1987 exceeded that 
of any previous year. ‘Twenty-seven new numbers were added to 
the regular publication series, requiring an aggregate of 4,162 pages 
of type composition. The number of copies of these printed by 
Field Museum Press was 26,757. Three of these publications were 
in the Anthropological Series, ten in the Botanical Series, seven in 
the Geological Series, six in the Zoological Series, and one was the 
Annual Report of the Director for 1936. In addition, five leaflets, 
aggregating 214 pages of type composition, were published in editions 
totaling 138,420 copies. Two of these were on anthropological and 
three on botanical subjects. Of the eighteenth edition of the General 
Guide, a 48-page book, 10,026 copies were printed. <A _ sixth 
edition, consisting of 2,552 copies, of the 72-page Handbook of Field 
Museum was also issued. 

The number of labels printed for exhibits reached a total of 6,922, 
including those for all Departments of the Museum. Other printed 
matter, such as the twelve issues of Field Museum News, Museum 
stationery, posters, lecture schedules, supplies, etc., brought the 
total number of impressions for the year to 882,754. 

A detailed list of publications follows:

DIVISIONS OF PHOTOGRAPHY AND ILLUSTRATION 


The negatives, prints, photographic enlargements, lantern slides, 
transparent exhibition labels, etc., produced in the Division of Photog- 
raphy during 1937 totaled 12,415 items. This represents a large 
decrease from the 1936 production, which is explained by the fact 
that, unlike the previous year, there were no photographers assigned 
to the Division by the Works Progress Administration. The majority 
of the items produced were in fulfillment of requisitions from the 
various Departments and Divisions of the Museum, but also included 
in the total are 473 prints, enlargements, and stereopticon slides for 
sale on orders received from the public. 

The important task of cataloguing the Museum’s extensive col- — 
lection of negatives, now numbering approximately 87,000, was — 
continued by WPA clerks. This work makes the negative collection | 
much more accessible and convenient for filling the constant stream | 
of requisitions received. 

The Museum Collotyper produced a total of 634,925 prints. — 
These include collotype illustrations for publications and leaflets, | 
covers for various published works, picture post cards, and poster — 
headings. | 

The Museum Illustrator filled 647 orders for various types of art © 
work received from various Departments and Divisions. Included in | 
this total were more than 100 drawings, the coloring of 365 lantern — 
slides, and various items of photograph retouching, lettering, map- 
making, ete. 


DIVISION OF PUBLICATIONS 


The publications of the Museum, as in previous years, were 
generously distributed during 1937. To institutions and individuals 
engaged in scientific work there were sent on exchange account | 
| 


15,604 copies of scientific publications, 1,264 leaflets, and 933 miscel- — 


DIVISION OF PUBLICATIONS 247 


laneous publications and pamphlets. Also, 3,898 copies of the 1936 
Annual Report of the Director, and 648 leaflets were sent to Members 
of the Museum. Sales during the year totaled 840 scientific publica- 
tions, 9,170 leaflets, and 11,363 miscellaneous publications and 
pamphlets, such as Guides, Handbooks, and Memoirs. 


Forty-two large boxes containing 6,454 individually addressed 
packages of publications were shipped to Washington, D.C., for 
distribution through the courtesy of the exchange bureau of the 
Smithsonian Institution, to museums, research organizations, scien- 
tific libraries, and individuals in foreign countries, from whom 
valuable material is received for the Library of Field Museum. An 
equally large quantity of books was sent by mail to domestic institu- 
tions and individuals on the exchange list. 


Thirty-seven new exchange arrangements which were established 
with institutions and scientists during the year should pious of 
mutual advantage. 

For future sale and distribution, 29,894 copies of various publi- 
cations issued during 1937 were wrapped in packages, labeled, and 
‘stored in the stock room. 

The continued popularity of two anthropology leaflets, The 
Races of Mankind and Prehistoric Man, necessitated the issuing of 
new editions of each. The Museum in 1937 sold 2,195 copies of these 
two leaflets which were first published in 1933. A second edition 
was issued also of the botany leaflet Spices and Condiments, originally 
published in 1930. 


Of the books published under other auspices and handled on con- 
signment at the Museum, sales for the year totaled 1,690 copies. 
These are books on natural history subjects written in popular 
style. The authors of some of them are members of the Staff of 
Field Museum. 


POST CARDS 


The total number of post cards sold during 1937 was 127,827, of 

which 26,510 were grouped into 1,291 sets. The increase over the 
preceding year’s total sales was 43,777, covering both individual 
_ cards and sets of cards. 


| A new set was added to the cards issued for the Department of 
Anthropology. It contains eighty views of the sculptures by Miss 
| Malvina Hoffman of the living races of mankind—all that have been

DIVISION OF PUBLIC RELATIONS 


The publicity received by Field Museum increased to a notable 
extent in 1937 as compared with several preceding years. Not only 
were the articles and photographs printed in newspapers and other 
publications more numerous, but they were given more prominent 
display. There were many full-page and half-page feature articles, 
and layouts of pictures of Museum subjects. Outstanding especially 
was the newspaper space given the arrival of the twenty millionth 
visitor to the present building and the special exhibits arranged in 
connection with this event. The Chicago Sunday Tribune gave a 
full page to an article and pictures on this subject, and the Chicago 
Sunday Times devoted two full pages to it, while major space was 
given to it also in the news columns of the daily editions of these and 
other newspapers. On other subjects, three full pages of photo- 
graphs appeared in successive weeks in the Saturday rotogravure 
section of the Chicago Daily News, and a number of page and half- 
page features were printed at various times in the Chicago Hvening 
American and the Chicago Herald and Examiner. Outside Chicago 
also extensive attention was given to Field Museum, especially note- 
worthy being displays in the New York Times, the Illustrated London 
News, and the pictorial magazine Life, to mention only a few. 

To keep the public informed constantly of all Museum activities, 
both news and feature stories, and many photographs, were released 
several times each week by the Division of Public Relations. These 
were distributed not only to the local press (metropolitan and 
suburban) but were also circulated nationally and internationally 
through various news agencies such as the Associated Press, United 
Press, Universal Service, International News Service, Science Service, 
and others. The total number of news and feature articles released 
was 296, or an average of more than five per week. ‘To illustrate 


these articles, several hundred photographs and captions were — 


also distributed. 

The series of articles and pictures entitled “Exhibit of the 
Week,”’ begun in the latter part of 1936, was continued through 
the greater part of 1937. By applying this designation to them, 
renewed interest was created for forty-eight especially selected 
Museum exhibits which no longer possessed other elements of time- 


liness. These articles were designed to carry out a special aim of | 


Museum publicity to supplement the announcement of current ac- 
tivities with general educational material which fits into the 
basic program of disseminating and interpreting knowledge. 


DIVISION OF PUBLIC RELATIONS 249 


The releases from the Museum, by keeping the institution con- 
stantly before the eyes of editors of newspapers and magazines, 
stimulated them frequently to assign their own writers and camera- 
men to obtain additional material about the Museum and its activi- 
ties, thus increasing the total publicity. Occasional favorable 
comments on the work of the Museum appeared also in the edi- 
torial columns of various publications. 


The monthly bulletin, Field Museum News, published for the 
Members of this institution, was carried on for its eighth year and 
eighth volume. The preparation and distribution of this periodical 
is one of the duties of the Division of Public Relations. A number 
of innovations in editorial content were made, while the main object 
of presenting the widest possible variety of articles and photographs 
in the limited space available was pursued as in previous years. 
Copies were delivered to all Members at the beginning of each month. 
While maintenance of constant contact with the membership is the 
principal aim of this publication, it performs additional functions 
also, as an exchange item with other scientific institutions and 
libraries, and as an additional medium of general publicity. Copies 
are sent to newspaper and magazine editors, and as a result articles 
in it are frequently reprinted in full, or quoted. 


The Division of Public Relations assisted in publicizing the 
Museum’s series of dramatized radio programs, “From the Ends of 
the Earth,’ which themselves constituted an outstanding achieve- 
ment in attracting public interest. In addition to this series, the 
Museum received other radio publicity through programs offered 

_by network systems and individual broadcasting stations. Another 
_medium contributing to publicity was the motion picture newsreels, 
which on several occasions made films of Museum subjects. 


As in many previous years, various organizations controlling 
' advertising media made them available to the Museum without 
charging for their services. The Illinois Central System and the 
Chicago and North Western Railway displayed at their city and 
suburban passenger stations placards announcing the Museum’s 
spring and autumn lecture courses. Several ceiling-cards featuring 
Field Museum exhibits appeared in the street cars of the Chicago 
Surface Lines, and both that company and the Chicago Motor Coach 
Company posted in their vehicles other placards suggesting that 
their patrons visit the Museum. 


Information folders about the Museum have been widely dis- 
tributed by hotels, clubs, libraries, schools, department stores, and 


250 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY—REPORTS, VOL. XI 


public institutions, and many of these have also displayed posters 
advertising the lecture courses. 

In addition to the aforementioned activities, a large part of the 
time of the Division of Public Relations has been devoted to numer- 
ous other duties, especially editorial work on certain Museum pub- 
lications, and special articles requested by a number of periodicals. 
A volume of correspondence and other tasks involving detailed work 
of various kinds is also handled in the Division. Several hundred 
invitations were sent to the chairmen of conventions held in this 
city, and through them thousands of Museum folders were dis- 
tributed to the delegates attending their meetings. 


DIVISION OF MEMBERSHIPS 


Although a slightly larger number of new Members was enrolled 
in 1937 than in 1936, the losses incurred by death and cancellation 
also were greater, resulting in a smaller net increase in membership. 
The total number of memberships on record as of December 31, 1987, 
is 4,266. 

Field Museum wishes to express its appreciation and gratitude 
to all its Members, who, by their loyal support, help to make pos- | 
sible the continuance of the institution’s great educational work. 
An expression of appreciation for their past support is due likewise | 
to those who found it necessary to discontinue their membership, | | 
and an invitation is extended to them to resume their association | 
with the work of the Museum whenever they may find it convenient _ 
to enroll as Members again. 

The following tabulation shows the number of names on the list | | 
in each of the membership classifications at the end of 1937:

CAFETERIA 


Meals and other refreshments were served to 146,951 persons 
during 1937 in the lunch rooms operated in the Museum. This was 
a notable increase over 1936 when the number served was 118,841. 
Of the 1937 total, 103,682 patronized the main Cafeteria and 43,269 
used the children’s room. These figures compare with 81,534 and 
37,307 respectively in 1936.
