History 61b will be taught this spring by the co-author of the textbook used in 61a, Myron P. Gilmore, chairman of the History department, announced yesterday.
Harry J. Carman, retired Moore Professor of American History at Columbia University and author of "A History of the American People" with his former colleague, Harold C. Syrett, will give the course on a one-year appointment, Gilmore said. He succeeds Kenneth Stampp, professor of History at the University of California.
The opening in History 61b came two years ago when Arthur M. Schlesinger, then Francis Lee Higginson Professor of History, retired. Starting next year, the course will be given by Frank Freidel, who will receive a full professorship in American History, according to Gilmore.
