LECTURE GROUP 1 (lectures 1 - 4 of the series) contains materials such as copies of transparencies and other printed information prepared as handouts for the lecture audience. The report covers the following presentations.

Lectures 3 and 4 of this group were videotaped. The videocassettes and are in Box 67 of the John N. Warfield Collection in Fenwick Library. The first two lectures, Number 1 and Number 2, were not filmed because Warfield had not planned on any videotapes of the series. However, after the lectures began Professor Ben Broome suggested videos and it was he who lined up the student video outfit which taped most of the lectures.
