Like so many classics, once the solution is pointed out, it seems simple, and most of the pieces fall into place. The trick of course is to point out the solution. It was good of you to ask for our reprints on tissue culture. ‘hey were sent under separate cover yesterday, and I wish you could be enticed into this field. I was sorry to have missed you last Saturday. Next time, please let me know you are coming and plan either to stay with us,or at the very least, to spend an evening if time won't permit more. My best to Esther. qoratatty, Aw yHearry Eagle, Chief T axperine tal Therapeutics National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases HE: bfb
