to clarify: alexander doesn't date 'the children's
echelon' to 1946. only that it is included as one of
the 20 stories (alexander lists the 20, at least i
think it was 20) that jds and whit b. compiled in 1946
as a possible table of contents for the
story/lippincott volume of short stories, titled 'the
young folks'. the t of c is at princeton according to
the notes in the back of alexander's volume.
