Dear Burr:

Cleaning out the rest of last year's mail I just
realized I had never acknowledged your very nice note
of December 4th. I had lost track of where you were
and was interested to know where I could now find you.
I will be very disappointed if I do not have an occasion
to visit Woods Hole sometime during the spring and if
so I hope I can take the occasion to look you up.

Yes, this is a fun place; and although moving my
family and myself back across the country had its trying
moments, I am quite unabashed to report that I am enjoy-
ing the situation very much. Being at an institution
which is, on the one hand relatively uncomplicated, and
on the other has a substantial scope and mission, offers
a positive contrast to the complexities of the universi-
ties where I have spent most of my academic life.

a

I certainly recall with great pleasure my first en-
counters with zoology on Morningside Heights and will
continue to be grateful to you for the sympathetic in-
terest that you offered beyond the call of duty.

Yours sincerely,

soStua Lederberg
