Dear Dr. Sonneborn:

I regret very much that you have had to change
your plans regarding the summer, and I wish we could
do something to avoid the necessity for that chanze.

If it is a question of finances, I will be very glad to
let you have a fellowship of $60 during August, which
would more than cover your traveling expenses for the
Symposium. . *

We are talking a great deal about various
approaches for testing the physical basis of genes and
chromosomes, and your material might be just what we
are looking for to carry on some experiments. Your
presence here would help in our “A soussions.

 

In my letter of March 20 I omitted! to give you
the information regarding length of papers ‘that is
being sent to all participants. There is no set limit
for the length of single presentations; but it seems
preferatle to keep the time to between 40 and 50 min-
utes, and not longer than one hour. Last year the
lenzth of manuscripts ranged from 2+ to 25 printed
pages, so that you can see there is no set specification
for this either. However, I shovid like to keep the
average length of papers to about 10 printed pages.

Sincerely yours,
