Roger Hayward Papers, 1899-2007

2. Manuscripts and Publications. 1937-1977.

Unpublished manuscripts and published reprints of articles written by Roger and Betty Hayward are arranged within this series. While the earlier writings tend to be more scientific in nature, Hayward's later work often assumes humorous tones, many of the later pieces having been developed for publication in the often-satirical journal The Worm Runner's Digest.
