Whitlock, Co-Chairman Writers Branch Executive Committee Norman Corwin rom The President This past year has seen enormous strides taken by our Academy and I feel a great sense ofpride and accomplishment at having had the privilege of being at the helm during these exciting days. The teamwork that typifies the Academy; the strength and dedication of its leaders, members and staff; all have come together to make this time of my life the most exciting and productive period imaginable. I thank you all for your cooperation, your professionalism, and your caring. As Bob Wise begins his presidency, the most important legacy I can pass on to him concerns our recently­ concluded negotiations with ABC. We now have a contract covering the next five Oscar shows, and future Annual Reports will reflect the fact that our revenues over that five-year period will be more than twice those ofthe previous five years. The challenge ofco-producing this past year's Awards Presentation was one ofthe more enjoyable experiences of my life. The creative unity that characterized the collaboration with Larry Gelbart, Gregory Peck and Bob Wise was exhilarating and-I hope you'll agree-beneficial to the show. The past year has left me many other pleasurable memories. At the invitation ofthe United States Information Agency, I had the privilege of visiting China as the head ofa delegation representing the filmmakers ofAmerica. This second such cultural exchange in the past few years has already been effective in spreading appreciation in China for our nation's motion pictures and the enormously talented people who make them. And writing of the wonderful and gifted people in our ranks, I am reminded ofour superb tribute to Myrna Loy-an event that was equally a tribute to our New York Academy members who felt, many for the first time, that we are truly a national Academy. I am also extremely proud of Salutes to Hitchcock, ASCAp, Robert Flaherty, John & Faith Hubley, Norman McLaren, Shirley Temple, and a Duck named Donald.' Our lecture series, our scholarships, our Student Film Awards-all have added up to fulfilling for me a dream come true: the opportunity to put back a small share ofall that this industry in general. and this Academy in particular, have meant to me. Thank you.

The artistic success resource for the organization to draw upon. ofthe 57th Awards show seemed a striking endorsement ofthe case Allen made in his second year for involving the Academy'S leadership more fully in the day-to-day planning and execution ofthe program. He and his co-producers Larry Gelbart, Gregory Peck and Robert Wise have set a strong precedent for careful Academy oversight of all future productions. Since the Annual Academy Awards Presentations provide our institutional lifeblood, and are the single most important influence on the world's perception of the Academy, Gene Allen has urged that we keep those facts in mind, and that we act to ensure a continuance ofsuch supervision over issues that affect the look, the length or the general quality of our ceremonies. Gene Allen's presidency was an impressively active one. Keenly interested even in relatively modest areas of the institution's work, he often put in days that started with breakfast meetings, continued through an active schedule at Academy headquarters and ended with his hosting an evening program for the Foundation. Few ofthe paid staffwould claim to have matched the hours he gave to an honorary, uncompensated office. Mar aret Herrick Library The 1984-85 Acquisitions list is headed by the personal papers ofa pair of master direc­ tors, Alfred Hitchcock and Fred Zinnemann. The Hitchcock Collection, which includes correspondence, scripts (including Thornton Wilder's handwritten draft of SHADOW OF A DOUBT), photographs, storyboards and other sketches, was donated to the Academy by Patricia Hitchcock O'Connell. The gift was presented at a December event which marked the formal reopening of the library, and which also included an exhibit oftreasures from the Daughter Patricia Hitchcock o'Connell presented a script representing collection. her father's papers to Gene Allen at the reception in honor of Alfred Hitchcock.

Other important contributions to the library's Special Collections area in the 1984-85 year include Edward Stotsenberg's donation of a large body of documents relating to Mary Pickford's career, Mrs. Henry King's gift ofpapers , scripts and books of Henry King and a gift from Edwin Neal of more than 4,000 production and biography stills.
