Dear HES, I was wondering if anyone on the list knows the story behind John Hicks' visit to the University of Chicago in October of 1946. It is known he gave three or four seminars there that fall (at least one attended by Friedman). Another seminar given that fall was by Koopmans; again why he was visiting is unknown. It has been speculated that Hicks was there as a guest of the Cowles Commission and that the Koopmans lecture following those by Hicks makes that connection quite strong. Does anyone happen to have more of the story? Thank you. Marianne Johnson
