DR.. Green attended the University
of Chicago where she received her
bachelor of arts degree in 1889, her
masters degree in 1941, and her
dOctOrate in 1948 She was a Junior
Fellow at Dumbarton Oaks from
1943 to 1916.

Professor o. A. Saunders, Univer- |!
sity of London, will visit the Univer- /
sity of Delaware campus in Newark |
on December z and under the |
auspices of the Departments of !
Chemical and Mechanical Engineer
ing. Professor Saunders will be in |
this country to lecture at several !
different universities in the east /
and midwest and to hold individual /
conferences with graduate students. |
Professor Saunders will give a |
public lecture on Monday, Decem- |
ber z, at 8:15 p. m. in the Brown |
Laboratory Auditorium. His topic !
will be Some New Developments |
in Heat Transfer Research" The
public is invited to attend
Professor Saunders was appointed
to the University of London chair
of mechanical engineering at the
Imperial College of Science and
Technology in 1916. He is a grad
uate of London and Cambridge and
was a senior scholar at Trinity
College, Cambridge, during 1926-29.
After leaving the University he was
trained at the Fuel Research Station
under DR.. o. H. Lander and Eng
Capt. J. Fraser Shaw, after which
he specialized on the thermO-
dynamical side of fuel and power
appliances. His work on industrial
heat transmission is well known,
and in 1921 he published in cOllabOr-
alton with DR.. Fishenden a standard
book on heat transmission. In 1882,
he took up the post of lecturer in
applied mathematical physics in the
Mechanical Engineering Depart
ment at Imperial College, and in
1897 became the first ClOthwOrkers'
reader in applied theTmOdynamics.
During the war his services were
lent to the Ministry of Aircraft
Production for special Investigations
on internal combustion engines,
and later joined the Directorate
of Tubine Engine Research, in
which he was in charge of research
on jet propulsion and gas turbines.
Professor Saunders has published
numerous original papers including
fundamental investigations of heat
transfer by convection in gases and
liquids, radiation and the phenOm-
enOn of exhaust gas disharge from
internal combustion engines, and
also various papers in engineering
journals. He has contributed con-
sideTably to the science of heat
transmission and the flow of gases.
and to the theory of the internal
to
modern developments. His interests
lie in both fundamental thermO-
dynamics and fluid mechanics, and
in applications of the gas turbine
prime mover to the propulsion of
aircraft, ships and for the gener-
alton of power on land. He is
chairman of the Propulsion Sub
Committee and a member of the
Council of the AerOnautical Re-
search Council, Chairman of the
Mechanical Engineering Panel of
the Ministry of Supply Gas Turbine
Collaboration Committee and chair
man of the Submarine Propulsion
Subcommittee of the Admiralty
Scientific Advisory Panel.
You will hear ensemble playing
such as you have never before heard
when the VirtuOsi di Roma play
in Mitchell Hall at the University
of Delaware on Thursday, December
10. at 8:15 p. m. in Newark.
Two years ago, during their 2nd
American tour, the Virtuosi ap-
peared at the University of Della
ware. By popular request they are
appearing once again under the
auspices of the Artist Series in
their third American tour.
Fourteen musicians, each of them
a virtuosi in his own right, make
up the ensemble, which plays as a
chamber orchestra in perfect pro-
portion, while any one of the men,
bers may be called on to be a
sOlOist. The instruments represented
are six viOlins, two violas Zone
doubling in the viola d'amOre), two
'cellos. a cOntrabass, a flute and
a piano
