PUBLICATIONS ON THE REVOLVING FUND
Corinth, Volume XI, 'The Byzantine Pottery," by Charles H. Morgan II was
published on March 20, 1943. The completion of this work brings to an end a pro·
jeer with which the Committee has been occupied for several years and to which its
several members have given considerable time and thought.
Corinth, Volume VII, part 1, 'The Geometric and Orientalizing Pottery," by
Saul S. Weinberg, is in press as this report is being written. •
Both Mr. Morgan and Mr. Weinberg are now in the armed forces, and it is
gratifying that their books could be brought to completion while they were still
able to give final supervision to them.
•The volume was published on May 25, 1943.
CORINTH VOLUMES IN PREPARATION
Corinth, Volume XII, "Miscellaneous Finds," by Gladys Davidson Weinberg,
has been delayed by Mrs. Weinberg's temporary absence from academic life, first
with the Greek War Relief Association in New York, and now with a Government
agency in Washington . The material for her manuscript and the manuscript itself
so far as it has been prepared are being held by the Publications Committee pend·
ing the time when Mrs. Weinberg will be able to resume the study and bring it to
completion.
Corinth, Volume VII, part 2, 'The Potters' Quarter," by Agnes Newhall Still
well, is still in course of preparation. Mr. Stillwell, as the Committee knows, is on
leave from Princeton University and actively engaged in Government work. The
necessary change of plans caused by the removal of Mr. and Mrs. Stillwell from
Princeton has made it impossible for work on "The Potters' Quarter" to go forward
as rapidly as had been anticipated. Once again the inevitable dislocation caused by
war activity has brought delay to the publications program.
The projected volume on the North Cemetery by Mr. Stephen B. Luce is being
studied furth er by Mr. Luce with a view possibly to making its publication available
in Hesperia.

The budgeted amount for the Morgan volume was $3,910.00, rather than
$4,221.61 as suggested in the last report as an appropriate amount for the completion
of the work. Even so, it will be observed that a saving of $421.01 has been ef.
fected in the final publication. It is not as yet possible to give a final report on the
cost of Weinberg's volume, for which funds were provided last year.
Total receipts from the sale of Hesperia and its supplements from April!, 1942,
co April 1, 1943, amounted to $1,703.95. Receipts from the sale of books as re
ported by the Harvard University Press on July 1, 1942, amounted to $961.01. In
asmuch as the Harvard Press made no report of sales on April 1, 1942, this figure
represents a 15-month period. No report came in during the year from Otto Har
rassowitz in Leipzig.
