NEWS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS.

This article presents news clippings and announcements related to American Sociological Association (ASA). The members of the Committee on International Cooperation of the ASA stand ready to advise members of the ASA planning a foreign visit as to sociologists in other countries with mutual interests whom they might wish to contact. It is recognized that many ASA members will already have the contacts that they need. Should a member wish to use the services of the Committee on International Cooperation, he is requested to write to the Executive Officer of the Association, stating the countries he expects to visit, the estimated length of stay, and whether or not he is chiefly interested in becoming informed about certain topics and the activities of sociologists in a given country. The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania have announced that three awards, each of $5,000, may be made for distinguished work in the humanities and the social sciences, to appear as succeeding volumes in the series.
