Adzope happens to be a little bigger and richer and more important than most of the other towns. It prides itself as an important center for cocoa, coffee, and bananas. MG trucks load up in the surrounding forest with giant teak and mahogany logs for the export market. The town is the administrative seat for the surrounding sous-prefeture--a government unit including about 65,000 people.

More serious, Mr. Moss disputes the judgment of the judges. I felt they were extremely well qualified: Dr. Yannatos and Mr. Corley are experienced conductors, and pianist Luis Vosgerchian, though carrying a heavy teaching load here as Lecturer in Music, has yet maintained an impressive reputation.

A number of administrative officers, including Dean Ford, and other faculty colleagues have gone out of their way to enable me to maintain this arrangement which is strictly one of my own choosing. Barrington Moore, Jr. Lecturer on Sociology
