C. Crane Brinton '19, associate professor of History and chairman of the Department, has been appointed a Senior Fellow of the Society of Fellows, the University announced yesterday.

Brinton's appointment was made under an amendment of the plan for the Society increasing to six the number of Senior Fellows selected by the Corporation. Formerly only five men besides the President of the University and the Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences were appointed.
