VINCENT THROOP Acting Chief, Designation Division, Economic Development Administration, u.s. Department of Commerce, Wash­ ington, D.C. M.S., 1934; Ph.D., 1948. Vincent was pleasantly surprised, recently, to receive a request for permission to use a Physiographic Diagram of New York State. The request originated in The New York State University with the paleon­ tologist. Perhaps this is something of a record as the work was produced thirty years ago, or maybe it is just due to the efficiency of the university, in that it never "loses" a graduate.

"'lliE TRAVELING SCHOOL OF GEOGRAPHY"

Last summer four graduate students in residence, Miss Marilyn Silberfein, Mr. Stephen Tweedie, Mr. James Allen, and Mr. Larrie Dean spent two months traveling through Europe with the Westminster Travelling Seminar, under the direction of Rev. Lee Klaer of Elmira. The seminar's mobile headquarters were in a converted "cattle truck," especially outfitted for camping purposes. This self-reliant unit enabled the group to wander into areas not reached by the average tourist.

Countries visited by the group were Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, Yugoslavia, Italy, Switzerland, and France.

The group was impressed by the interest and friendliness of the people in the various countries and managed to communi­ cate well with them in spite of the language barrier. Many of the people whom the group met have offered to serve as guides for a similar group which hopes to travel to other countries such as Czechoslovakia.
