Dear Jim:

past two weeks. since laaving you, have been exceptionally
thought provoking. my visit with you was a stimulating one, to
say the least. for I think you made clear tho importanto of
oraativa work for people 11kt ourselves. While I have had many
doubts during this year ragarding the significance of what I
may hava accomplished since coming to lissouri, the clarity
The

with which you criticized my work made on fuel that I had little
recourse but to go back to tbs laboratory immediatoly and perhaps
justify the axistoncc of this laboratory, not by the work of
others. but by my own. Perhaps this can bc done in the scat yoar,
and I look forward to matting with you at coma near future time
with more data and laws: administrative explanations.
Tho mastinsa in Birmingham ware fair from our point of View. us
missed tho presents of many-of tho slottroancaphalographars and
nourophysiologiats who hava had oxpariancc with quantitative EEG,
drugs. and clinical populations. ‘Ihors were only a few of us who
could carry on the discussions and as wo loft. Turns. George and

Indeed. we thought we would like to suggest it to you ~ since
London is such a central-location, that you might try to organize

spent s most pleasant two hours. I knew little of his application
of Isndell' s concordance but would like to see how this may be
related to our own work.

Perhaps most important is the pleasant visit that George and I had
with John Dawson. we spent a most pleasant few hours discussing his
work and at the end of which. with your kind permission, I asked
whether he would be interested in coming to our laboratories. He
seid he would like to consider it. so we tried to arrange for another
meeting just before we left England. As you may already know. we had
great diffioulty in getting to Rnnwsll and it seemed most expedient
to here San Gershon, our pherneeologist. visit withhhtm. Sen ceme‘

encouraging him to consider an appointment with us., Our procedure in
processing such appointments at the present time is somewhat simpler
than two yeers ago since the relationships with other agencies have
been olerified; however. I would like very much to have s letter of
referents from you concerning the extent of your collaboration. your
estimate of his abilities as a bio-chemist. and any other comments
you wish to make which I can use to present to the Dean and the ep~
propriate committees of the University.
.

with regard to a major portion of our discussion concerning your own
future, I on sure, indeed I so confident, that you must and will continue your research programs even if you have to devote s good part
of your energies to becoming e "£amous nan". Good luck. and my many
thanks to Sheila for her hospitality and dinner. Jonathan extends
his thanks to hell for the cricket ball. which has become a center~
piece in his bookcase and I hope an object that we will use this
coming weekend.

my

best regards.
Sincerely yours.
