Dear Virginia:

Hoeber Publishers have asked me to act as

guest editor for one of their publications of CLINICAL
OBSTETRICS ANI> GYNECOLOGY. As you probably know there
are four hard bound volumes of such symposia per year.
Enclosed is a copy of the proposed format of a symposium
on Human Teratogenesis which I have outlined, Would you
be willing to put some of your pearls in print for obstet-
ricians and gynecologists who use these volumes extensively,

The length of the article would be about 10

printed pages. I probably do not have to tell you how
honored I would be to have you contribute to this particular
issue on this particular subject. The deadline for getting
the manuscript to me would be about March 15.

I will be looking forward to hearing from you

soon and hopefully, favorably. Best personal regards,

Sincerely,

Elsie R, Carrington, M.D.
