Dear Dr. Ely: 
We have just learned that we will he responsible for the procurement 
of all blood supplies for the June-July trip. W© will also have to supply 
the centrifuge and an operator to process the sample# on the ship. 
We have a brand-new centrifuge here in Washington that will be shipped 
to Honolulu, lhare is also a second-hand centrifuge in the blood supply 
trunk at Pearl City. 2his old centrifuge has 'teen taken on two previous 
trips and is probably in need of lubrication, cleaning and adjustment. 
Since we feel that it would be wise to take a spare centrifuge on 
the trip would you please have Larry Huber take the on® at Pearl City 
somewhere for a check-up? 
George Wisloeki has requested that Ammunition Bosses A, B, and C, 
that were taken on the Leeward trip, be left packed for future trips. 
I believe Maryanaa called about the door on the Piggy-Back Lab. It 
was becoming rickety toward the last part of the Peb-March trip and should 
be checked. 
Sincerely, 
C, Douglas Hackman
