February 26, 1949. 
Mr. James Zetek, 
Canal Zone Biological Area, 
Drawer C, 
Balboa, Canal Zone. 
Dear Zetek : 
I now have my tickets and reservations to leave Washington 
Saturday afternoon, March 5. 1 will come across from Miami on 
Pan American Flight No. 313, due to leave Miami at 8:00 p.m. 
Sunday evening, March 6, arriving at Albrook Field, if on schedule, 
at 12:45 that same night. I will be accompanied by W. M. Perrygo 
of the U. S. National Museum, as assistant. 
Because of the unearthly hour of our arrival please do not 
think it necessary to meet us personally. 1 will, however, appreciate 
it if you will notify immigration and customs of our coming, and also 
make reservation of a room for us at the Tivoli Hotel. 
Assuming that we arrive as planned we should be on deck around 
7:30 a.m. the next morning. If you are interested in eating breakfast 
with us we will be glad to see you. If you have already eaten you might 
enjoy a cup of coffee in our company. I will plan to go with you Tuesday 
morning to Barro Colorado Island, probably staying two days or more 
if necessary. Following my return to Balboa I will probably stay at 
the Officers’ Club at Albrook Field for two or three days while arranging 
to get into the field. I have things pretty well set up by mail so that 
after I get some food supplies we should be well organized. 
Looking forward to seeing you, I am 
Sincerely yours, 
A. Wetmore, 
Secretary.
