[[preprinted]] RUTGERS UNIVERSITY NEW BRUNSWICK NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY [[/preprinted]] June 3, 1941 Dr. Waldo L. Schmitt U. S. National Museum Washington, D. C. Dear Doctor Schmitt: In reply to your letter of May 31, I would like to recommend additional items of apparatus as on the attached sheet. (Some of these merely increase the number of pieces of items already listed in my note of March 11). With regard to a sterilizing oven the Sargent Electric oven No.7766 (AHT Company) would be suitable for me, - its list price $35.00. This makes a total supplementary amount of $181.95 which could be reduced to $150.00 by eliminating some of the items above such as items no.1, 5, 6 on the list. As far as optical equipment is concerned you must ask someone else better qualified than I for my own work requires only dissecting binoculars. Yours sincerely, [[signature]] Alan Boyden [[/signature]] Alan Boyden Associate Professor of Zoology
