    Oral history interview with Henry Tyler Hopkins, 1980 Oct. 24-Dec. 17 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Henry Hopkins on October 24, December 3 & December 17, 1980. The interview took place at The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco, CA, and was conducted by Wesley Chamberlin for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. The reader should bear in mind that he or she is reading a transcript of spoken, rather than written, prose. Interview WESLEY CHAMBERLIN: Henry, one of the things I want to ask is, and this is always a basic question, is there anything in the background of your family, or your beginnings in Idaho Falls, which would lead you to believe that we'd be sitting in the office of the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco? HENRY HOPKINS: Well, probably not anything that specific. But I would say in fairness that from the time that I started doing drawing, as many young children will, fooling around with paints, fooling around with clay and so forth and so on, I had reasonable support in that manner. My father, who was an agronomist, had in his late high school and college days enjoyed drawing. He'd never had any real training or anything else, but he did some cartooning for the yearbook in his college.

    FE ,BRUARY /1952 New Palomar Pictures . page 26 A nother page for For high-precision gear trains TIMKEN® bearings are iust the ticket Shaft deflection or end-movement in a lathe gear train causes inaccurate meshing of gears, excess wear and loss of precision. So to insure shaft rigidity, leading machine tool designers specify Timken® precision bearings for spindles and other shafts. Due to their tapered construc­ tion, Timken tapered roller bearings carry thrust and radial loads in any combination. Shafts are held in proper alignment. Accurate meshing of gears is assured. How to mount tapered roller bearings in a lathe head The two single-row Timken precision bearings on the spindle are mounted indirectly. On the spindle end, the cones are pressed to the spindle shoulder. The bearing on the opposite end is backed by a collar, gear and nut. A two-row, indirectly mounted bearing is used on the pulley end of the input shaft. The remaining Timken bearings are directly mounted, and shim-adjusted. How you can learn more about bearings Some of the engineering problems you'll face after graduation will involve bearing applications. TIMIENTRADE-MARK REG. U. S. PAT. OFF.
