Hocank texts and recordings by Amelia Susman (1943)

[Johannes Helmbrecht]

Dear Siouanists,

Amelia Susmann mentions in the preface to her PhD Dissertation "The Accentual 
System of Winnebago" (1943) that she had recorded "ritualistic and narrative 
(Hocank) texts amounting to some fifteen thousand words" as well as a dozen of 
"records on the phonograph" together with Dr. Herzog. Does anyone has an idea 
whether these materials still exist somewhere, or where it makes sense to look 
for in order to find them. Does anyone know who Dr. Herzog was?

Every hint is wellcome - with my best wishes and seasonal greetings

Johannes
