    31st May, 1972 Dr. George W. Corner, Executive Officer, American Philosophical Society, 104 South Fifth Street, Philadelphia, Pa. 19106, U.S.A. Dear Dr. Corner, Thank you for your letter of 25th K ay confirming the invitation to give the jayne Lectures on April 4th-6th, 1973. The arrangements you suggest in your second paragraph will be very satisfactory. I have been invited to attend a meeting at Gatlinburg in the week following my visit to Philadelphia. They have also offered to pay my travelling expenses so I imagine the best way would be to split them between you. I do not normally travel first-class so I hope the total cost will be rather less than the sum you mention. I think it unlikely that my wife will be accompanying me on this trip, but perhaps I could let you know about this nearer the date. I am orresponding with Britton Chance about possible subjects for the lectures. Perhaps you would 1st me know the latest date I could let you have the titles for them. It will also probably be necessary for you to apply for an HI visa for me but this has caused little trouble in the past so we can perhaps leave it till towards the end of the year. With all good wishes, Yours sincerely, F.H.C. Crick
