- Letter from John S. Snyder of John Wiley & Sons, Inc. to LP RE: Thanks LP for letter of Aug. 21st commenting on the proposed test on crystal structure by Dr. W.H. Zachariasen of the University of Chicago. Comments that Dr. Zachariasen is highly regarded in the field of crystal structure and a book by him would be expected to be well received. Adds that other comments they've received on the basis of the outline submitted by Dr. Zachariasen were very similar to LP's own, and they will undoubtedly urge Dr. Zachariasen to submit a substantial portion of his manuscript when ready so it can be reviewed in the usual fashion.
