The completecitation is as follows: "The William Brewster Award for 1973 is presented to the late Rudolfo Amando Philippi B., .M.D. (1905-1969), Alfred W. Johnson, and J. D. Goodall for their research of the birds of Chile, a work that representsthe culmination of their life-long study in the field and in the museum of the birds of this extremely varied land. Dr. Philippi, in addition to his career as a physician, carried on a tradition of distinguished scientific endeavor in Chile that extends back through three generations. Mr. Johnson came to Chile in early manhood, and his initial 387 The Auk 91: 387-410. April 1974 388 RICHARD C. BANKS [Auk, Vol. 91 enthusiasmfor the study of the birds of his adopted country remains undiminished although he, too, is a man of multiple careers. Mr. Goodall has shared this enthusiasm, participated in the field work, and illustrated many species never before figured. The investigationsof thesethree men were considerablyaugmented by able colleaguessuch as William R. Millie and Francisco Behn who were also responsiblefor many significant discoveries. The magnitude of the awardee'saccomplishment can best be measuredby the region in •vhich they have worked. Chile spans a breadth of latitudes and habitats comparable to those from southeastern Alaska to the tip of Baja California. The environment xvithin its borders ranges from storm-swept, sub- antarctic Tierra del Fuego to the rainless deserts of the north; from arid brush- land to temperate forests of No•hofagus and Araucaria; from a coast washed by the biologically rich Humboldt Current to the saline lakes and perpetual snows of the Andes that here reach the highest elevation in the New World. Philippi, Johnson, and Goodall personally investigatedthe avifauna of every type of habitat, often under conditions to tax the will and fortitude of even the most dedicated, and the birds they have studied have a diversity from penguins to condors and finches to flamingoes. Their discoveries--taxonomic, distributional, ecological,and behavioral---are too numerousfor a brief synopsis. Most impor- tantly, by their publications in both Spanish and English, they have provided the ornithologicalworld with their cumulativeknowledge of a great and varied avifauna, and in a style that combinesthe rigor of the careful scientist with the vigor and enthusiasm of the pioneer naturalist. For these qualities especially we honor them--as scientists and pioneers." The Elliott Coues Award was presentedto John T. Emlem, Jr., for his pioneer studies on the behavioral ecology of birds. The citation reads as follows: "The Elliott Coues Award for 1973 is presented to John T. Emlen, Jr., for pioneer investigations on the behavioral ecology of birds, including many original, critical, and significantstudies of the living bird in its natural environment, during the last forty years. By his early, extensiveand systematicuse of color- marking of birds as groupsand as individuals,simple but effective field techniques and experiments, combined with census techniques and habitat measurements, he was one of the first investigatorsto establishmodern approachesto the objec- tive study of bird behavior in the field and to the scientific analysis of social organization and distribution of natural populations. He has made important and original contributions on t.he role of habitat and tradition in distribution, and to the understanding of orientation, behavioral ontogeny and communication, as well as of behavioral factors in population regulation. Not the least of his many contributions has been the guidance and inspiration he has so often given to others,including his many students,for scientificunderstanding and appreciationof the natural life of animals." The Committee on Student Awards announcedthat Marcia Brady Tucker Travel Awards in support of travel to the A.O.U. meetingin Provincetownwere made to Cynthia Carey of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan; to Ronald Le Valley of California State University-Humboldt,Arcata, California; and to Ralph Schreiberof the University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida. One-yearmemberships in the A.O.U. were awardedto 51 students(40 graduate April 1974] Proceedingsof the Ninety-first Stated Meeting of A.O.U. 389 students,8 seniors,2 juniors, and 1 sophomore)enrolled in 40 institutionsin 26 statesand two Canadian provinces.

    "ROME'S RECRUITS" a Hist of PROTESTANTS WHO HAVE BECOME CATHOLICS SINCE THE TRACTARIAN MOVEMENT. Re-printed, with numerous additions and corrections, from " J^HE ^HITEHALL j^EYIEW" Of September 28th, October 5th, 12th, and 19th, 1878. ->♦<- PUBLISHED AT THE OFFICE OF " THE WHITEHALL REVIEW." And Sold by James Parker & Co., 377, Strand, and at Oxford; and by Burns & Oates, Portman Street, W. 1878. PEEFACE. HE publication in four successive numbers of The Whitehall Review of the names of those Protestants who have become Catholics since the Tractarian move ment, led to the almost general suggestion that Rome's Recruits should be permanently embodied in a pamphlet. This has now been done. The lists which appeared in The Whitehall Review have been carefully revised, corrected, and considerably augmented ; and the result is the compilation of what must be regarded as the first List of Converts to Catholicism of a reliable nature. While the idea of issuing such a statement of" Perversions " or " Conversions " was received with unanimous favour — for the silly letter addressed to the Morning Post by Sir Edward Sullivan can only be regarded as the wild effusion of an ultra-Protestant gone very wrong — great curiosity has been manifested as to the sources from whence we derived our information. The modus operandi was very simple. Possessed of a considerable nucleus, our hands were strengthened immediately after the appearance of the first list by 071 XT PREFACE. the co-operation of nearly all the converts themselves, who hastened to beg the addition of their names to the muster-roll.
