I continue to invite commentary on any article in any issue of TopCom or on any topic of general interest to topologists, including news about topologists or topological activity.

INTERVIEW

An Interview with Arthur Stone by W. W. Comfort
The interview of Arthur Stone that follows was conducted by Professor W. Wistar Comfort of Wesleyan University. Because of his modesty, Arthur Stone seems to be doing his best to downplay his many deep and significant contributions to topology, not the least of which was his proof of the equivalence of paracompactness and full normality, thereby answering in the affirmative Dieudonné's question about whether metrizable spaces are paracompact. W. Wistar Comfort has done his best to overcome Arthur Stone's reticence, and Topological Commentary is grateful to both of them.
