Dear Jim:

last

met productive and, at long last, I feel
It has been a year since I visited
England and I still recall that trip with great pleasure.
Miss Walton has started to work with us and, as you and the other referees
indicated, who is a conscientious worker. There may be some difficulty in training her in the use of some of the newer equipment which we now have, but Dr. Itil
likes her and I think she will mrk out very well.
The

that I

am

few months have been

getting back to the laboratory!

Dr.

Ulett received a letter

from Dr. Driver reconnending

the consideration

of Dr. Serafetinides for a position here. George asked me to" handle this and
I have written to him, separately, suggesting that he discuss with you your
visit to our laboratOries. In. the event that he is interested in joining our
staff, I have asked that he send me a. copy of his curricular: vitae. ; In; addition,
I should be grateful for your mommdation cmoerning' the“ pessibility of his
making a contribution to the development of our units.
Our computing unit is now fmctioning- and my own facility is increased to
a point where I have written some simple programs. The first project was to write
a period analysis program, following the model of Neil Burch. This-has been done
anditworks verywell. WearenwabletotakeanBBGandoarryoutallthe
steps of analysis up to the final drafting of the graphs. We are now trying to
deveIOp some simple style procedures that will handle the large number of calcula—
tions and provide us with some simple measures of the changes of the EEG. The
major advantage of this form of analysis is the apparent dependence of frequency
and mnplitude, as well as the ability to reflect changes in frequencies higher
‘

"

than 30 cycles per second. Of course. with such a sensitive method we are now
faced with the problems of our amplifiers and find that the frequency responses
of even the newest and best, is limited to a small band. We are going to apply
this method first to the simple problem of defining the changes in pentothal and
as soon as I have some definitive information, I should be pleased to send it to
you

for your
My

connnents.

best regards to Sheila.

Sincerely yours,
