FROM THE DESK OF........
MIKE GORMAN

April 8, 1986

Dear Ed:

| enclose the requested comments on ATTACHMENT
G -- the Topics Discussed at the January 16th Dinner
Meeting of the High Blood Pressure Coordinating
Committee.

1 want to be very frank about this. | think that
this kind of arrangement in which a half a dozen
-members congregate at a series of tables does not
produce much. This was proven back at the 1977
Houston Annual Meeting. It was really a bust then.

} presume that you stuck me at the lousiest
table. There were two absentees, SO we had four
people talking around in circles. Only two people
-made any sense -- Dr. Roper from the National
Medical Association and your humble correspondent.

Looking forward to seeing you on April 21st.

Cordially,

ikea

Mike
