John Fairfield Sly, now chairman of the Princeton Local Government Survey, will be a special lecturer in the Government Department during the second half year, it was authoritatively learned yesterday.
Sly will probably teach Government 36, which is on State, Local, and Municipal Government, as well as a graduate course on public administration. Both these courses were given last year by Fritz Morstein Marx, then an assistant professor and now on the faculty of Queens College in New York.
Sly was a graduate student at Harvard between 1921 and 1926, receiving a Ph.D. After lecturing here for a number of years, he was professor of Government and chairman of the department at West Virginia University, and was rumored to be the principal braintruster for the governor of that state. After resigning, Sly went to Princeton to head the Local Government Survey. He is the author of "Town Government in Massachusetts."
