Dr. Samuel Eliot Morison '07, lecturer on history at the University, has been granted leave of absence from his duties for two years beginning next summer, to enable him to accept the Alfred Vyvyan Harmsworth professorship of American history at Oxford, to which he was recently elected. The Harmsworth chair was founded not long ago by Lord Rothermere, brother of Lord Northcliffe.
Professor Paul J. Sachs '00 of the Fine Arts Department has been granted leave of absence for the second half of the current year, to collect books, photographs and works of art in Europe for the Fogg Art Museum, of which he is the assistant director.
Two new appointments announced at the University are those of Mr. Arthur Davison Ficke '04, widely known as a poet, to be curator of Japanese prints at the Fogg Museum, and of Mr. Ingersoll Bowditch '97, to take the place of the late Charles P. Bowditch '63 on the faculty of the Peabody Museum.
