THE INSTITUTE FOR ADVANCED STUDY PRINCETON, NEW JERSEY OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR 24 September 1954 Dear Miss Evans: Thank you for your letter of September 2nd. I was quite unaware of any delay, as I spent the month of August with my family on the coast of Maine, which was very cool this year, but as delightful as ever. I have myself delayed in writing until I could tell you that we are mailing more of the transcript. Nothing was sent after July 27th until today, when the following are going out: The first four reels of the May session; Original and carbon of the transcript of the May session; Carbon of the December session; and carbon of the February session. On the December carbons, you will find that both tracks of the first reel, and all but the last page of the first track, second reel, are missing. These were mislaid when Dr. Oppen- heimer took the session home to read, and we have been unable to find them yet. As you can imagine, I am quite unhappy about it, and shall keep on looking. We now have only the March session, which is being transcribed. I shall hope to send it to you in less than a month. With best wishes, S. Sincerely, is AND SERVICES Verna Hobson (Mrs. Wilder Hobson) Secretary to the Director Miss Barbara Evans Covington and Burling Union Trust Building Washington 5, D. C.
