Dear Doug - 
Just a quick note about supplies - you want the following which 
1 have written followed by the price we pay here. If our price if 
lots better than yours, we’ll order here. Otherwise, if you will send 
us the name of the manufacturer (dealer) you use out there we can 
send a purchse order from here "not to exceed $1,000" and you can 
order directly from him. Each time you buy from him, he should sub¬ 
mit an invoice to you (to check for accuracy) and you in turn would 
send it back to us here. It would then go to fiscal with payment 
authorized and it should get paid fairly quickly. 
8lOS 10cc disposable syringes - $8.00C in lots of over 1 5 000 
Yale 1.5" 21 Ga. dis. needles - $37-35M 
Vacutainers, lOcc - $3*30 per can of 40, $19.80 per case of 240 
Vacutainer needles, 21ga. 1,5" - $64.00M 
Dispopettes (also called Pipette) - 9", 230 mm - $3*87 gross in 10 Gross lots -K 
(Have already ordered these) $3.44 gross in 30 gross lots -K 
3.13 gross for 45 gross (Thomas) 
The forceps have been ordered, we’ve sent out the first letterhead, 
2 drums of sawdust are on way, the Bouin’s Fluid is ordered, whirlpafes ordered, 
gloves sent, cotton sent, pliers ordered, return and recovery sheets sent, 
time tape ordered. Intermediate sheets sent. 
The 652-27001-27100 string of bands was issued to Paradiso across the 
hall for bat banding. I haven’t been able to find him but I'm going to check 
to see if he still has his string. If it is unaccounted for I think that 
we’ll assume that somehow we got it here (l banded a bat last year and can’t 
remember where I got the band!) and sent it out to you - it all seems un¬ 
likely and the next part of the serial will come when I find out what 
happened. 
Do let us know pronto about the prices above - if you can get them 
there for approximately this price (even if it is just a little higher we 
would be saving shipping costs from here to you plus Jan’s time) I think 
we should put in the purchase order with your local people."; Send a full 
name and address for them and we can get it through here very quickly. 
You could order at once out there if they would be willing to wait for a 
while for their reimbursement. 
Best regards.
