selected EFT authors were actually being taught in what courses and whether reprints or library copies were being used; (2) which works of the same 20 selected EFT authors would be used in what courses if inexpensive reprints were available. This survey is by no means complete, although the response was excellent, for I must still compile and analyze the results. With my discussion of these results I also hope to publish a list of available American and British inexpensive reprints of al1 works by al1 EFT authors. In the meantime, Ronald Freeman has agreed to make a thorough study of various kinds of textbook anthology for the inclusion or exclusion of writers in the EFT period, poets, short story writers, dramatists, essayists and critics. If all these activities can be concluded at about the same time, I shall try to make up one issue of EFT out of this material. EFT in the Biblioqraphles and Checklists: Items appearing in EFT are now being regularly noted in Maurice Beebe's Newsletter in the general issues of MODERN FICTION STUDIES; in the annual PMLA bibliographies; in ABSTRACTS OF ENGLISH STUDIES; and in BOOKS ABROAD. It is also pleasant to note that Jarvis Thurston, 0. B. Emerson, Carl Hartman, and Elizabeth V. Wright list EFT as one of the journals examined in preparing their excellent compilation SHORT FICTION CRITICISM (Denver: Swallow, I960). ANNOUNCEMENTS 1.
