Q:

And how do you spell his last name?

Stanton:

Yntema? Ted was his first name, that's easy. Y.N.T.E.M.A.

Q:

Thank you.

Stanton:

Bob [Robert R.] Sears, a psychologist from Stanford; Ed [Edwin E. Jr.] Huddleson, a lawyer from San Francisco. Excuse me.

(PHONE INTERRUPTION)

Q:

Okay.

Stanton:

Alan Waterman was on the board. He was the head, I believe, of oil research in the Navy, a physicist -- first class person, great human being. Alan served longer than I did on that board. Clark Kerr who was chancellor -- or later became chancellor at Berkeley. It was a good board, a distinguished board.

Q:

The Ford Foundation had proposed the make-up of the board? Or did you do it?

Stanton:

Berelson and others had been picking and choosing. And we had to solidify it by having the group get together and see whether we could get going. I think there were a few others that we added that I invited on the board and so forth. But it's a matter of record. I don't -- I'm doing pretty well for -- what was that? That was damn nearly forty years ago.
