Announcements

Ill When the proposed Seminar has been authorized by MLA, we shall notify ELT subscribers and provide additional details. We shall be particularly interested in papers on Conrad for possible publication in ELT, whether they are suitable for the Seminar program or not. Papers submitted for the proposed Seminar program should be so designated. 4. Contributors to the Annual Bibliographies: The annual bibliographies will not include authors on whom major projects for publication in the NIU Press Series have been contracted, nor those on whom projects are in progress for publication in ELT. After publication by NIU Press or in ELT of a bibliography in depth, we shall try to maintain a continuing bibliography on the author annually in FLT until a thorough supplement can be published . In order to continue the annual bibliographies, we shall need help with work on some authors. Professor James Haydock (Wisconsin State University, Oskosh) has agreed to maintain the Gissing listings; however, because of the number of items on Gissing now beginning to turn up, he will need some assistance. One volunteer 's name was unfortunately lost in an office move - may we hear from him again? and others? We are in urgent need of help on the Ford Madox Ford listings, which continue to be too numerous for our small staff to manage in addition to a fairly large number of other authors. It is time for another inclusive large-scale Kipling supplement. We shall be pleased to hear from anyone wishing to take charge of such a project. ANNOUNCEMENTS 1. Dr. Charles J. McCann, most recently Dean of Faculty at Central Washington State College (Ellensburg, Wash.) and a long-time ELTer, has been appointed President of Evercrreen State College (Olympia, Wash.).
