Dear Dr. DeBakey:

| received a request from Dr. Edward Dempsey
for copies of an article | recently published (copy
enclosed for your convenient referral). He apparently
saw a relationship in this article to the report of the
President's Commission on Heart Disease, Cancer
and Stroke, and sent me a copy of Volume | of the
report.

| very recently reached a decision that this _
medical school is still many years away from adequate.
development. There are many problems of town-gown
strife, lack of funds, lack of a physical plant, etc.,
and I have concluded that | had bes: seek elsewhere.

Dr. Dempsey's letter turned my attention to
the possibility that some of my academic background
and views on medical education might coincide with
your interests and that you might know of an opportunity.
| am therefore taking the liberty of enclosing my
curriculum vitae and bibliography and hope that you
will not find this inquiry burdensome.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely yours,
