service and salary to begin September 1, 1944,

From a list of thirty-six names prepared by a faculty committee who surveyed
the Classics situation in America, we have selected their first recommendation
in the suggested appointment of Dr. Ullman. He is Senior Professor of Latin at
the University of Chicago. He was born in Chicago, August 18, 188Z, received his
Ph.D. from Chicago in 1908, studied in Munich and in Rome. He has been profes­
sor and head of his department at Pittsburgh and at Iowa, in addition to his present
position at Chicago, where he has been since 1925. He stands at the top in linguis­
tic work, is an authority on Latin manuscripts, and is, in addition, a distinguished
and popular author on our debt to Greece and Rome. Dr. Ullman stands so high
in the classical world, that his visit to Chapel Hill for a conference with us has
given us many pointers on our Department and our Library which would be worth
his trip, even if we had not succeeded in attracting him to the University.

2. We desire authority to appoint DR. EDWIN PEELE HIATT, now Assistant
Professor of Physiology at New York University, to the position of Associate
Professor of Physiology in our Medical School, at a basic salary of $3675, service
and salary to begin September 1, 1944. This position is a replacement of Dr. A. T.
Miller who moves up to the senior position vacated by the resignation of Dr. H. Ward Farrill.

Dr. Edwin Peele Hiatt was born in 1911 in Ohio. He is an honored graduate of
Wilmington College, holds his M. A. from Haverford College where he was a dis­
tinguished fellow in Zoology. He was a graduate assistant in Zoology and Physio­
logy at Duke University, 1934-36; was acting professor of Biology at Wilmington
College, Ohio; research fellow at the University of Maryland; instructor in
Physiology, University of Maryland School of Medicine, 1936-39, at which time
he received his Ph.D. in Physiology from Maryland. He has been instructor at
New York University College of Medicine, research worker at Vanderbilt College
of Medicine, and assistant professor of Physiology since 1943 at New York Univer­
sity College of Dentistry.

3. We request authority to appoint Dr. John B. Miale as Instructor in Pathology
at $3500 net, service and salary to begin September 1, 1944. This is a replace­
ment of Dr. R. T. Shields who resigned.

Dr. Miale is a graduate of Cornell University and a graduate in Medicine of
the University of Rochester. He served an internship in Pathology at Rochester
and was a practicing pathologist in New York City for two years. He is at present
