註釋The collection focuses on material related to Dr. Sutton's work in various aspects of the city government, and on his work as a professor of English at Ball State University, and is divided according to these two sections. The first section, MSS 28, contains archival materials dated from 1926 to 1979, and is divided into five series. The City Council series contains agenda and minutes of meetings and other documents and letters related to Sutton's terms as councilman and as president of the council. A sub-series of committees includes correspondence, newspaper clippings, and documents associated with the committees. The General series consists of newsletters, newspaper clippings, and other sources of information concerning such areas as Boy Scouts of America, the Chamber of Commerce, Delaware County Safety Council, Race Relations, Religious Affiliation, and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Issues dealing with a revision of the Indiana Constitution comprise a large part of the Indiana Municipal League. Also included in this series are newsletters and correspondence focusing on various aspects of legislation. Resolutions presented for recommendation at League Conventions are also contained in this series. The Metropolitan Planning Commission series consists of agenda and minutes, annual reports, and miscellaneous documents associated with planning and development. Also included are various petitions for zoning changes and questionnaires and proposals related to the Muncie-Delaware Property Responsibility Code, and environmental code designed for the areas mentioned. The final series, the Republican Party, outlines aspects of Sutton's work as a Republican precinct committeeman. This work involves the use of questionnaires related to various issues such as the redistricting problem in Muncie. Other sub-series involve elections, including pamphlets about candidates, the Women's Division of the Republican Party, and the Young Republicans. The second section of the collection is a part of the University Archives. One series within this section includes newspaper clippings and articles by and about famous literary authors. Minutes of meetings of the Ball State English Department and other correspondence related to that aspect of Sutton's work are included in the Departmental Matters series. Sexual Fairness includes manuscripts, notes and correspondence related to Sutton's pamphlet, "Sexual Fairness in Language." Similar to this area of interest is Sutton's concentration on Manglish, including clippings showing examples of sexual discrimination through language. An addition to the previously mentioned addition is a collection of photographs depicting various aspects of the life of Robert Frost, Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winning poet, from the age of nine months to the age of eighty-eight years. Other additions to this collection include photocopies of correspondence between Margaret Bourke-White and her family, friends and business associates, and twenty seven hand drawn color slides from her materials (S 1). Twenty six black and white photographs depicting various aspects of Muncie during the 1960's comprise the photographic series (PSC 22). One more addition to the collection is a cassette tape of an interview with Bill Sutton by Penny McJunkin on May 27, 1980 (R 15). This interview concerns Sutton's research on Carl Sandburg.
