Your patients are doing very well as

I have worked closely with Ali to bring up-to—date the draft

two or three "political“ sentences which it

Ali had sent notes on Ospolot to the Intercontinental. I
read the notes and it seerns to me that our decision not to send
an abstract to the Epilepsy Society is still a good one. Enclosed
is the abstract you dictated for the American EEG. I will hold it
until the 29th and if you make your corrections before then I can
send out a copy with your revisions.

both the funds and the equipmnt, and that your studies alone on
Ditren and anticholinergic drugs, let alone mygom part warranted
the transfer of the grant to either one of us. I reminded George
that the Institute has the right to request the redesigxatim of
