SUBJECT: Du Val and Wilson Interviews

TO: Director, NLM

Attached are some materials for the Du Val and Wilson interviews.
For each of these interviews, I have provided the following:

1. Brief biographical information on each
interviewee, with specific identification of
his key position(s) with respect to RMP and
such relevant background information as the
HEW Secretary(ies) under whom he served.

2. A suggested opening statement for the
interview, along the lines of the brief
statement that I showed you earlier. I have
also given these to Bill Leonard for the cue
cards. You may of course modify the
statement as you see fit. Since both Du Val
and Wilson are retired, I have not given any
identification of a present position for
them. You may want to check with them at the
time of the interview if you feel some
identification is needed. During the course
of the interview, of course, we will
establish their former positions vis a vis
their RMP experiences (see the questions).

3. A list of eight suggested questions for each
interview (slightly different in each case).
These questions are similar to the six generic
questions that I submitted to you earlier, but are
tailored somewhat more specifically to these two
interviewees. I hope you will find them helpful
as a starting point, but you may of course want to
modify them and to follow up on comments of the
interviewees during the course of the interviews.
