Dr. Peter F. Bellinger, Associate Editor of the News since 1951, has accepted an appointment to the faculty of the new San Fernando campus of the Los Angeles State College in California. He will move to his new home during the coming summer (1958). Dr. BELLINGER will continue to be responsible for the literature abstracting and will take with him the Society library, for which he acts as librarian.
I will take a year's leave of absence from Yale University, beginning July 1958, for research, writing, and professional travel in several European countries. With the cooperation of Dr. BELLINGER and Mr. F. M. BROWN, I will continue to edit the News. Mr. BROWN has kindly taken over the task of mailing the News, an arrangement of great convenience to the Society, because our new printer is in Colorado Springs.
