W. 2nd Avenue Homestead, Florida 33030 Dear Alex, How nice of you to write! Yes, I share the dream about being able to enter the task with such competent administrative support and advice that I can still be largely engaged with issues of scientific direction. Moving Gast, I am sure I am going to be tempted to seek your own advice about winter refuges such as I am glad to see you are able to exploit. ‘ I hope you will have some occasion to visit New York and meet my family, and that you will not hesitate to let me know if there ever is such an opportunity. With all best wishes, Yours, JL: ek-£ “WY SH VIG
