The Editor's Fence

IV. THE EDITOR'S FENCE 1. Kipling Continued: This entire issue is given over to Part Two of the Kipling bibl¡ography,, It continues the alphabetical listing and pagination from the point at which Part One ended., So that the entire project can be paginated consecutively, this is Number 4 of Volume 3 (i960). We hope to conclude the Kipling bibliography with Number 5 of Volume 3, also dated I960. 2. In the Meantime: We are preparing Number 2 of Volume 4 (1961). This will include material on George Moore, a note on Ford Madox Ford, an article on H. G. Wells's ΤΟΕ Ο-BUNGAY, a number of reviews, miscellaneous bibliographical information on some 30 to 40 writers, and other material. 3. Advisory Committee: In Volume 4, Number 1 (1961), we listed four persons as members of our Advisory Committee,, We have since then added two more names: Morton N. Cohen (City College of New York) and Ronald Freeman (University of California). This committee, its members located near major research centers in various parts of the country, will help us in the process of searching out the source materials for our bibliographies, judge papers submitted for publication, and advise on plans for future issues of EFT as well as programs for the MLA Conference on English Fiction in Transition.

The names of all the members of the Committee will regularly appear in all issues starting with Volume 4 (196l)o ANNOUNCEMENTS 1. Graduate Assistantships: On an earlier page we print a notice of the availability of graduate assistantships at Purdue University. One graduate assistant will regularly be assigned to ENGLISH FICTION IN TRANSITION. In fact, we are fortunate this term to have Jacqueline Eisen as the graduate assistant on our staff. We think it Is a two-sided good fortune. We can give the graduate as-sistant a great deal of valuable experience in the use of basic research tools, in proofreading and editing, in fact, in most of the problems that arise in the course of research and the publication of a scholarly journal. Vie would appreciate it if subscribers would bring this opportunity to the attention of especially well qualified holders of bachelor's degrees. 2. EFT Conference for 1961: The discussion topic for the MLA Conference on English Fiction in Transition in 1961 is The Writer as Hero: 1880-1920 Since papers that serve as the basis for discussion are printed in EFT in advance of the meeting, the editors look forward to hearing from scholars who wish to submit papers. Vie shall consider papers on the general problems of the writer of the Artist-Hero novels, more specialized papers on specific novels or writers in ...
