Mr. James Lewis,
Assistagt to the President,
State University of New York

Dear Jim:

Here is an item that might be squeezed for a little publicity: I've
just received notification that I've been awarded a summer post-doctoral
fellowship under the National Defense Language Fellowship Progr am to do
advanced study in Portuguese and Brazilian Area studies. It will be for an
8-week session at the University of Texas in Austin.

I thought it might be used as favorable publisity for the University -- and
for the Center for Inter-American Studies. Since Portuguese and Brazilian studies

will almost necessarily be an important developing portion of the program there,
this work is a particularly important in that area. -

Sincerely,

instead of a click—on

By DOC RIVETT
Times-Union Staff Writer

Two Albany men who have
evolved a new theory of hear-
ing—that it’s the organization
of sound that counts most—
are finding further support for
it in tests on youngsters with
speech problems.

To make their tests they had
to design an audiometer which
would supply tones in meas-
ured bursts of time so that the
ear’s power of organization

rather than its perception of}

volume alone could be tested.

The new audiometer—only
one of tis kind in the world—
permits timing as precise as
a millisecond, one one-thou-
sandth of a second. A dial
splits it into periods from 10
to 300 millisceonds.

have been working together so
long they speak almost as one,
It is not unusual for one to start
a sentence and the other to
finish it.

They have experimented sev-
years with musical tones in
developing their theory that
hearing actually is an organiza-
tional process, They have as-
sembled a roomful of instru-
mentation—in the form of re-
tooled cast-off organ parts—at

forming various tones. A by-
product of that research was
a new mathematical theory of
music.

Dr. Boomsliter, who also_is

on_the faculty of Albany State,
and Mr. Creel are using the new

split-second audiometer at the
speech center on youngsters
who have such problems as

articulatory disorders.

Such problems, Dr. Boom-
sliter said, are ‘characteristic
. + . of abnormally long inte-
gration times.”

“This is the first time we've

stimulus a person needs to
hear.”

They demonstrated the test-
ing device for a reporter. With
the tone at 1,000 cycles a
second, Dr, Boomsliter took
the controls. “At 10 milli-
seconds, this should sound like
a click,” he said. It did.

“With longer pulses,” he
added, “‘you should distinguish
the tone.” At 15 milliseconds,
the tone could be detected, At
30, it was all tone.

“We've checked one young-
ster,” they explained,” who
had very bad integration times.
He heard clicks at 150 milli-
seconds. You should hear him
talk. Completely unintelligible.
tYou can understand why. He's
never really heard what he’s
trying to say; he has no pat-
trn to follow.”

Other youngsters, with less
severe lags, nonetheless show
adverse effects of slow organi-
zational time in their speech.
“Times available for identifying
speech sounds in ordinary talk,”

from 20 milliseconds for short
consonants to perhaps 200 milli-

along to be identified.”

They're also using their
machine to test patients of an
Albany doctor, before and after
a certain type operation, The
patients tested have complained
before the operation, of hearing
trouble, although ordinary tests
showed their hearing normal.};
But the timed bursts show they
really have slow integration
time before the operation. It
improves after the operation,
tests taken to date indicate.

250 Cycles

“We can produce about any
cycle (of sound waves per
second),” they explained. “But
we use 250 cycles in our tests.”

That is about the same pitch
as normal conversation—about

ularly in the cities and so-called

Dear Jim,

The purpose of the National Science Foundation Faculty Fellowship that
I have been awarded is to pursue my work in graduate mathematics, The award
is for a 12 month duration. I plan to take about 30 hours of graduate
mathematics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. The program is definitely
designed to lead to a doctorate but the doctorate will not be attainable in
this one year period. The Fellowship is of the matching salary type. Since

I live in Schenectady I would appreciate it if the press release could be

given to the\Schenectady Union Star }f at all possible. This request, however,

is not of any great importance,
Thank you,

Campus Shift to Spawn

A New ‘College Town;

By DAVID GARDNER

‘HE ASSISTANT to the president of the
State University, speaking to the Mc-
Kownyille Improvement Association, said
that when the new State University College
is completed, it will be both a blessing and a
‘curse to the McKownville area.

“Jt will mean many joys for you,” said
Col. Walter M. ‘Tisdale, who is playing a key
role in the planning of the new campus.
“And it will mean many problems for you.”

Construction is underway on the new in-
stallation, which will accommodate 10,000
students before 1970 on a 300-acre site at the
border of Albany and McKownville.

the Award is being used to replicate the study of the charac-

by Hicks and Hayes 25 years ago with the children presently attending
the Milne School using questionnaires, standardized tests, personal=-

ity ratings, and other data obtained by the school.

The amount of the award is $500, I intend to use this money to
do research in Virginia next summer (approx. 6-8 weeks). The
subject of my work is George Wythe (1727-1806). This men was

the youngest Attorney-General in the history of Virginia (1754),
a member of the Colonial House of Burgesses, law teacher of

Th omas Jefferson (ca. 176), the writer of the Remonstrance to
the British House of Commons against the Stamp Act (1765),

a Signer of the Declaration of Ind. (1776), @ member of the

2nd, Continental Congress, a member of the Virginia House of
Delegates and Speaker thereof (1787), a Revisor of the Laws of
Virginie, (togdther with his former pupil, ZT. Jefferson and
Hamugd Pendleton), Chancellor of Virginia's High Court of
Equity. He attended the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in
Philadelphia, left it when his wife became 411, and subsequently
was Chairman of the Virginia Constitutional Convention which
adopted it. He taught lew at the College of William and Mary
meanwhile, The Chair of Law there is the first in America and
the Second in the entire vorld. : While professor there, he intro-
duced modern methods of teaching (the lecture system, the holding
of student courts, model legislature, etc.) He taught John
Marshall, Littleton Waller Tazewell, St. George Tucker, etc.
Henry Clay wes his private secretary and protegs for several
years. His students ultimetely became the law professors, judges,
politicians, senators, governors, etc. who governed Virginia,
Kentucky, Louisiana, etc., for the next generation, His influence,
in short, was tremendous, When I've completed the research, I
intend to write a biography of this man.

I am very grateful to the New York State Educational Foundation
for this help. It will buy a lot of microfilm, photostats, etc.

From: Ashley M. Bryan
Re: Statement on Research for which Research Corporation Grant was awarded.
Title: Sequence of Nucleic Acid and Protein Synthesis in maige root tips.

This investigation is being undertaken to determine the sequence of events
in the synthesis of DNA, nuclear RNA, cytoplasmic RNA and protein in order to
demonstrate whether the findings are compatible with the hypothesis that the
information from the nucleus is transformed in the above mentioned order and
to correlate these with the growth and development.

Most of this work has been done on bacterial systems and it is difficult to
extend the generalization to higher organisms without further experimental
evidence. It is intended here to conduct research using plant material-maize
root tips.

. ONY

The Grant-in-aid I received is too small
to make an issue of. It is in the amount of
$300, and will be uged for the purchase of

equipment which will anable me tommmmnt
grow certain plants (Zebrina plants) under
varying periods of light Zor daylength
(short, medium, long dayZlengths), with
lighting periods autmothtically controlled.

Purpose is to ascertain daylength,
(photoperiod) which results in maximum productid
of flowers. Flowers in turn will be used
in_studies onalongevity, ami Gerbain cells
within the flowers, called stamen hair cells,
will be used to study metabolic effects of
