Dear Josh:

Dr. A. Kleinschmidt from the University Frankfurt am
Main visited our department recently and gave a seminar on
electronmicroscopy of isolated DNA and DNA in situ (in lysed
protoplasts), He would like to meet you and talk to your
people. His photographs are rather good, his English is
satisfactory and he is a jovial sort. He is (to use his words)
eager to advertise his work, He will be in Berkley to see
Robley Williams and has tentative plans to be in Palo Alto to
see Arthur Kornberg.

I find it difficult to conceive how his DNA model can
replicate, but I have that trouble with any "chromosome'! I
can contrive.

Best wishes to you all,

Sincerely,

S. Gaylen Bradley, Ph. D.
Associate Professor

P,S, He may be contacted until October 1 at Stoeckenius' Laboratory,
Rockefeller, New York.
