THE ‘kONADNOCKVOLUME XXXI No. 2 MAY, 1957

This s the second in the series ofarticles either written by the rnemhers or the staff or devoted to theirresearch. These articles are intendedto broaden the scope and variety of themagazine for its readers. The following article deals with the current research in which Dr. Richard J. Lougee, Professor of Physiography, hasbeen engaged, it present, Dr. Lozigecis on Sabbatical leave.

Professor Lougee began his Sahhatical half ear after the examinationsin February, and says he relishes theexperience which is his first leavefrom classes in thirty ears of teaching. He has acquired a quantity ofresearch material in recent years thatneeds to be transcribed to publishedreports, and it is to this writing thattnost of his time is being devoted. Wesee him infrequently or late at nightin his office.

The fossil peat bog that Dr. Lougeeinvestigated in a deep cut on the TollRoad in Milibury has turned out tobe older than the Last Glaciation,since it was found to have been compressed by the overriding weight ofthe Last Glacier. Pollen analysis ofthe peat reveals quite a different kindof forest assemblage from that ofpresent time. Among twenty-five treetypes which have been identified, thepollen of oaks was predominant instead of pine as today. ProfessorLougee expects to make still furtherborings to ascertain the nature of thematerials beneath the peat which hadsixty-five feet of glacial till resting

on it. No other glacial deposits havebeen found under it; and it is thefirst pre-Glacial plant deposit yet discovered in New England.

Professor Lougee reports the discovery last summer of a region atthe head of the Bay of Fundy thatas uplifted above sea level whilestill covered by the ice cap—this circumstance causing the region to escape completely the marine submergence and the spread of marine claysthat are elsewhere widely distributedand characteristic of the rest of theFundian Lowland. Development ofthis marine driftless area in NovaScotia can he ascribed to the identical stage of land movement that Dr.Lougee has been studying in great detail in southern New England, Hisforthcoming reports are to documentthis and other evidence including hisdiscoveries in 1947 of the “FossilNiagara” in the Gorge of the LowerConnecticut River which also wascreated by a great emergence of landin late-Glacial time. Several studentsrecently made a trip with him tosee this natural wonder in southernConnecticut. In some ways it resembles the great Tophet Chasm whichhe and Dr. Raisz described and illustrated in the June 1956 issue ofippalachia.

On April 15 when Clark Universityentertained the Ambassador fromAfghanistan, D r. Najih-Ullah, Pro-fessor I.ougee renewed acquaintanceswith the Ambassador who was a ship-

AMBASSADoR FROMAFGHAN JSTA\ SPEAKSOn April 15, before an audience of

some 250 faculty members and stunents in Atwood Hall, His Fxcellency, I)r, Najib-Ullah, the Ambassador of Afghanistan, delis ered a 1cc-ture under the auspices of the CUGS

Lhe Ambassador” talk dealt withhis country and its past, present, andfuture geopolitical situation. Partcular reference sas made to the scopeand meaning of his country’s relations with its giant and ambitiousneighbor to the north.

Phe keynote of the address was thepermanent and historically evolvednature of Afghanistan’s foreign policyplank of neutrality. This was con-trasted with the recent emergence ofthe Afro-Asian bloc,

Dr Najib-Ullah was invited to Clarkby Mr. Dave Dichter, a member of theCUGS, tsho had spent a considerableamount of time in Afghanistan aftergraduating from Aligarh Muslim University in India, Mr. Dichter cx-tended the invitation to the Ambassador after a personal meeting withhim in Washington earlier this year.

EDITORIAL COMMEN’FAlthough the work of editing a pub-

lication as the M0NADN0cK can entaila number of pains and pressures, itis a rewarding experience. In the production of this magazine many of theoutstanding features of the ClarkGraduate School of Geography serenoted, First, was the response of theAlumni, xsho by supplying necessarybiographical information and financial assistance contributed to the pub-lication of the Spring issue. Second,sas the realization of the importantwork and research that is going onin the field as a product of Clarktraining. Third, and perhaps themost important was the spirit of cooperation expressed by the CUGS andthe staff without which 1he editor’swork would have been impossible.

It might be added that the financial problems in producing theMox tIVsOCK increase with the yea’sThrough the overwhelming generosityof a former CUGS member. the ‘dollar gap” was reduced enough to pub-lish the Spring issue without seriouscurtailments of space and quality ofpaper.

The Staff of the Mox’DNocK isever thankful for all of the assistancethat was gien by the Alumni in responding to the call for informationand funds. We feel that by a little“missionary effort” on the part ofthose isho are aay from Clark, inpromoting the cause of this magazine,would make the problems of production considerably lighter.Te be1iee in the M0NADN0cK as

the official publication of theSchool of Geography and we hopein the future to maintain thequality and the scope of it in promoting a closer bond between Clark andthe Alumni it serves,

April 1957 was a month for stimulating geographic thinking for men-bers of the Workroom, brought aboutby the appearance of three guest lee-hirers: Dr. Jean Gottmann, Dr. JohnK. Wright, and Dr. Nafis Ahmad.

Dr. Gottmann was first in the series.He is research director for the “Studyof Megalopolis”, a project of theFwentieth Centu Fund of New YorkCity. One phase of the research dealssith the theory that the eastern sea-board of the United States fromnorth of Boston to northern Virginiais actually a single urban area whichcreates many problems of a social,economic, and political nature.

Dr. Gottmann is also Professor ofPolitical Science at the University ofParis, France, and is a member of theInstitute for Advanced Study atPrinceton University. He deliveredlectures on the following subjects:

1. The French School of Geograph3’

2. Megalopolis3. Other Expressions of Megalopo

lis4. Recent Shifts in the Geography

of Raw Materials5. Afterthoughts on rirpinia at

Slid-Century (Dr. Con-mann’s most recent publicadon in the U. S.)

Second in the series was Dr. JohnK. Wright who recently retired asDirector of the American Geographical Society. He is now residing inNew Hampshire where he is teachinga course, The History of C3eogra-phy, at Dartmouth College. He presented lectures on:

1. & 2. Thinking Geographically3. Backward Aspects of Mediaeval

Geograph4. Some Grandfathers of American

Geography5. What is American about Amer

ican Geographi?

Dr. Nafis Ahmad was the third inthe series. He received his MA. atthe Muslim Unierslty, Aligarh, in-dia and his Ph.D. from the LondonSchool of Economics, London Universit3. lie is Professor and Head ofthe Department of Geogrnph at theUniversity of Dacca, East Pakistan.His major fields of interest are theeconomic and regional geography ofPakistan and India.
