the summer of 1970, and now should be available the winter 1971-72.

There are a reasonable number of research assistants. technicians,
computer console operators; and funds for equipment and supplies
are adequate. Travel funds are virtually noneexistent, except on

invitation, and these are fairly frequent. Secretarial aervices are
also restricted, so that most of us do our own typing (except for
final reports). Calculators, typewriters, computer time, library

facilities and copy facilities are freely available. Our teaching
commitments are minimal and the Ph.D. staff devote 992 of their time
to research.

I trust you will join us and udll find the same satisfaction in the
that we have found. If you have some more specific questions

about the EEG work I suggest you address them to Dr. Volavka. If
you have some questions about our organization or attitudes, you may
wish to write to Stanley Feldstein, Ph.D., Associate Professor, and
project leader in clinical cannabis studies; or Rhea Dornbush, Ph.D.,
Assistant Professor and a project leader in ECT/memory and cannabis
