LELAND E. HOLLOWAY, professor of physics, for two semesters, to investigate high energy proton-antiproton collisions at Fermilab. JAMES R. HURT, professor of English, for one semester, to write a book entitled, The Literature of Illinois: A Critical History. ORACE E.

1 Associates are selected in annual competition from the academic staff of all departments and colleges to carry out self-initiated programs of scholarly research or professional activity. The center is able to contribute only a modest fraction of the salary funds necessary to replace associates in their regular duties; thus, the appointment of associates is possible due to the cooperation of the departments with which they are affiliated.
