Harvills this year was their trips to Latin America. On behalf of the Carnegie Corpora- tion and the Institute of International Education, Dr. Harvill visited Guatemala, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, Chile and Brazil in order to study the systems of educa- tion in Latin and South American countries. On his return trip he was met by Mrs. Harvill in Puerto Rico where they both attended the Conference on Inter- American Exchange of Persons. In pursuit of their current joint hobby which is studying Spanish, the Harvills visited the Guadalajara summer school last summer.
