Notes on the Development of the Linguistic Society of America 1924 To
NOTES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE LINGUISTIC SOCIETY OF AMERICA 1924 TO 1950 MARTIN JOOS for JENNIE MAE JOOS FORE\\ORO It is important for the reader of this document to know how it came to be written and what function it is intended to serve. In the early 1970s, when the Executive Committee and the Committee on Pub1ications of the linguistic Society of America v.ere planning for the observance of its Golden Anniversary, they decided to sponsor the preparation of a history of the Society's first fifty years, to be published as part of the celebration. The task was entrusted to the three living Secretaries, J M. Cowan{who had served from 1940 to 1950), Archibald A. Hill {1951-1969), and Thomas A. Sebeok {1970-1973). Each was asked to survey the period of his tenure; in addition, Cowan,who had learned the craft of the office from the Society's first Secretary, Roland G. Kent {deceased 1952),was to cover Kent's period of service. At the time, CO'flal'\was just embarking on a new career. He therefore asked his close friend Martin Joos to take on his share of the task, and to that end gave Joos all his files. Joos then did the bulk of the research and writing, but the~ conferred repeatedly, Cowansupplying information to which Joos v.t>uldnot otherwise have had access. Joos and HiU completed their assignments in time for the planned publication, but Sebeok, burdened with other responsibilities, was unable to do so. Since the Society did not wish to bring out an incomplete history, the project was suspended. -
Then and Now
PMLA PUBLICATIONS OF THE,MODERN,LANGUAGE,ASSOCIATION-0F,AMERICA Issued Five Times a Year VOLUME LXXI MARCH 1956 NUMBER 1 , t t THEN AND NOW By LOUISE POUND, President of the Association HOPE this microphone works. If you have to listen to me I hope you I can hear me. Once before at a gathering of a learned society, seeing an upright gadget before me, I talked with extreme care directly into it for half an hour, moving neither to the right nor to the left, only to find as I went down from the platform that it was a lamp. For half a century I have belonged to the MLA. My name first ap pears in the Proceedings for 1906, printed in 1907. Apparently I joined in a historic year. Percy Waldron Long, who became Secretary of our Association in 1935 and its President in 1948, joined in that same year, 1906, and our retiring Secretary, William Riley Parker, to whom the MLA owes its recent and long needed Foreign Language Program, was born in that year. Recently when looking over old volumes of PMLA I was surprised to note-I had utterly forgotten this-that in 1898 I was on the program of the Central Division, the earliest Division to splinter off for geographical convenience from the MLA proper. It was founded at a Chicago meeting in 1895 and was given up at Ann Arbor in 1923. Thereafter the general meetings were to alternate between the East and the "West," the latter usually meaning Chicago. By our day multiple divisions of our now gargantuan parent organization have arisen in the South and West, with the Rocky Mountain Division nearest the old Central.1 In 1898 Chancellor G. -

Newsletter & Review
NEWSLETTER & REVIEW Volume 56, No. 2 Spring 2013 For really bad weather I wear knickerbockers Then really I like the work, grind though it is In addition to painting the bathroom and doing the house work and trying to write a novel, I have been becoming rather “famous” lately Mr. McClure tells me that he does not think I will ever be able to do much at writing stories As for me, I have cared too much, about people and places I have some white canvas shoes with red rubber soles that I got in Boston, and they are fine for rock climbing When I am old and can’t run about the desert anymore, it will always be here in this book for me Is it possible that it took one man thirty working days to make my corrections? I think daughters understand and love their mothers so much more as they grow older themselves The novel will have to be called “Claude” I tried to get over all that by a long apprenticeship to Henry James and Mrs. Wharton She is the embodiment of all my feelings about those early emigrants in the prairie country Requests like yours take a great deal of my time Everything you packed carried wonderfully— not a wrinkle Deal in this case as Father would have done I used to watch out of the front windows, hoping to see Mrs. Anderson coming down the road And then was the time when things were very hard at home in Red Cloud My nieces have outlived those things, but I will never outlive them Willa Cather NEWSLETTER & REVIEW Volume 56, No. -
Roscoe and Stephen Pound
Roscoe and Stephen Pound The Pound family includes several notable Nebraskans. Roscoe Pound, a member of the Firm, is perhaps the most recognized in legal circles. He joined the firm in 1905, and the next year gave a speech to the American Bar Association Convention that brought him national attention. Roscoe Pound joined our Firm in 1905, while also serving as Dean of the University of Nebraska College of Law. During his tenure with the Firm, Pound delivered a controversial address to the 1906 American Bar Association Convention entitled “The Causes of Popular Dissatisfaction with the Administration of Justice.” This speech catapulted Pound to national attention and is often credited with igniting the spark of American legal reform during the Progressive Era. After leaving the firm, Pound taught law at Northwestern, the University of Chicago, and Harvard, and served as the Dean of the Harvard Law School for over twenty years. By virtue of his lectures and many writings, he became one of the most influential American legal scholars of the twentieth century. Roscoe Pound’s father, Stephen also practiced with the Firm from 1907 until his death in 1911. Stephen Pound was a delegate to the Nebraska Constitutional Convention of 1875, Lancaster County’s first District Court judge, and the patriarch of one of Nebraska’s most remarkable families. In addition to their son Roscoe, Stephen and his wife, Laura Biddlecome Pound, had two daughters, Olivia and Louise. Olivia was a nationally recognized educator who wrote more than 20 textbooks and contributed many articles to educational publications. Louise was a long time professor of English at the University of Nebraska, an accomplished musician and athlete, and a mentor to young Willa Cather. -
