Dear Dr. Lederberg:

Thank you for reserving a room for me at the Union, I now
plan to leave Columbus on the evening of July 31, and to arrive
in Madison at 12:45 P M Central Standard Time, The time-table
was very halpful, A {

When I suggested experimenting with meningococci I had in
‘aind just isodating some biochemical mutants by the technic you
have used with E.coli, but perhaps even that would take more
than a week. I have a lyophilized sample of virulent meningo-
cocci with me, but shall not be disappointed if we don't use
them.

The agenda you list sounds very satisfactory, and I know
I'll profit from the fisit no matter what organisms I work with.

Sincerely yours,
