Many alumni wrote to tell us they were not receiving TOWERS. We liked that, for it meant they actually missed the magazine. The fact is that we made the New Year’s issue a view book and it took longer to prepare. We hope you liked our efforts. It was designed for the admissions office, but we felt you would want to have a copy. Keep it where your friends will see it, or give it to some prospective student. If you want another copy for your office or if you have given yours away, let us know and we will send you another copy. We hope you will like rhe two new features in this issue— the faculty page and Highlights from the Campus. How did you like that Development Fund report? Wasn’t it a dandy? Thirty thousand dollars in a year from alumni. Let’s catch those Harvard boys (60% participation). The next issue will reach you between May Day and Com­ mencement.

It begins by discussing similar ‘stay- behind’ operations in Europe in this era and the conditions that led US officials to develop one in Iran. It then explains what this stay-behind operation consisted of and why US officials eventually abandoned it. The paper concludes with a discussion of how the stay-behind operation in Iran differed from those in Europe and the important role it played in the decision-making that led to the 1953 coup in Iran. Introduction On 2 August 1951, the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) approved a plan to develop ‘stay- behind’ capabilities in Iran in cooperation with the Qashqai tribal confederation, which was based in south-central Iran, around Shiraz.
