Dear Dr. Lederberg:

Many thanks for your letter of January 16. We are looking
forward to your visit. As to equipment, I think you had better
bring tne ‘/O mm Petri dishes since we have none here. Any otner
Specializea equipment e1tner snould be brougnt or you should write
about it as soon as possible. I think we can supply most of the
standard eoulpment needed. It mght be well to pring any pet
Loops and needles whicn you have since one often nas difficulty
adjusting to new ones, more or less as one becomes accustomed to
a fountain pen.

If there anything we can do toward finding a place for you
to stay we would be nappy to try. Did you nave any particular type
of accommodations in mina? If you are driving tnrougn ,a motor court
mgnt be more converment tnan a hotei. I do not know whether we could
find an efficiency apartment on a snort term basis, they are hard to
find.

With best wishes, I am
For the Officer-in-Charge, Bacteriology Section

Sincerely yours,
