Saturday, 08 April, 1961

Left Oak City for Boston at 0830, transferring to a jet at St. Louis. My seatmate from St. Louis to Boston was a Mr. Masselli of the Electric Power Cooperative in the Midwest that supplies power to the AEC; he must be an executive. I enjoyed talking photography with him as he was carrying a Nikon Reflex with an attached & coupled Light meter with an f2.0 lens. The rangefinder is brilliant. I wish I could get one of these cameras, but it costs $349!

Arrived home about 1900.

Found letter from Mr. Halaby’s office re: the Committee on Safety for the FAA.

Went on to Boston, getting home about 7 PM, after a $10 taxi ride from Harvard Square.
