Description
Summary:The Fellows of the Center, Nicholas B. Millet, and George T. Scanlon, will keep regular hours at the above address from 8:00 to 1:00 daily, excepting Friday and Sunday. An added note, of interest to our readers, is that three of our members will participate this year in a joint expedition of Yale and the University of Pennsylvania Museums, which has just been announced. The expedition, in charge of Professor William Kelly Simpson, Vice President and Trustee of the Center, will establish a camp in Nubia, in the shadow of the famous temple of Raineses II at Abu Simbel, twenty miles north of the Second Cataract. Professor Simpson will be joined there by (among others) Edward L. B. Terrace, of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, a member of the Center, and Nicholas B. Millet, the present Director of the Center in Cairo. Dr. George T. Scanlon will represent the Center in Cairo during Mr. Millet *s absence.
