(3) we have redunea all the EEG cage: by perioa analysis, and huvu 16 sfibaocts camplete with 5 cxparimontn each. The initial proeessing has been done using our linaar rugreaaion analysis model. The drug eonditions are distinguidhdhle tram placdbo, in patterns similar to that reparted'by Vblawka and Dorubush in their earlier studias in v.3. voluntaers a& lower doses. The analysis was done. including fihn post-smoking period and the postnteating EEG in a single analysis. A: the varidhility is high postuteating. additiannl analyses are in prograaa using a quadratia regression modal, for the firnt pastanmoking period. In afldition, we are aarrying out sums npacial analysas to amplify the changes in the alpha bands. �Coatee Stefenis, M.D. February let, 1973 ~2— These date should be complete in two weeks. we would like to undertake correlative studies, of the EEG, heert rate, eelr~ reports, and some task performance data. volevke has used e "forced regression" analysis model for our heroin and cannabis date with success, and'we propose some similar studies here. Rhee has e list of subjects and date which we will need to carry out these analyses. ' (h) Ae‘I hawe written to RINK and discussed with you. the findings of these studies are of considerable interest and we must give thought to both the mode one time of presentation. we have dieoueeed the question end Rhee will discuss the enclosed memorandum of our suggestions, and hopefully we can outline e set of steps which one needs. eeooumodete our mutual contributions and Rhee is bringing the battery you requestea, es well as some cannabis materiel. On her return, we would like to send samples of heehieh, and residual marijuana end THC»A~9 to NIMH for assay, end I would appreciate your making these small samples available. (5) The initial threat for this study was the observation elowing reported by Professor Mites. The EEG records of the heehieh smokers were examined by h neurologists, and the controls by 2.‘ But, a critical reviewer could argue that the obaervers knew which records came from beehieh smokers and which from controls. Perhaps, it would be worth the effort and coat to code the 60~7o reoorde end ship these to an independent, experienced of EEG electroencephalographer of known reputetion.for a detailed report? Rhee has some suggestions for candidates in the v.3. and Europe. . (6) There are problems in our book~keeping thick is of the following nature. The auditor: will require "belk— ups" thet the salaries were paid as specified; and that the expenses for supplies were paid. I believe you are depositing our check and issuing your checks for the expenses. I need the processed check or its coyy for salaries; one the bills with checks for other expenses. It cash, your initials or one or your staff certifying e eeeh payment should be eatiefeotory. Again, my congratulations on e fine report and my best regards to Adele and your eeeooietee.
