Picked up a set of copies of specifications for the program and instruments used on the photo part of Press; they were made available by Mr. Guethlin (Getlin?) of Gp32. I may have to go to Kwaj to see how this program is progressing.
Finished another layout for the Photo Section. Some A people were in, E. Durand, Garblick, etc, to talk about a DPC. A meeting was held yesterday to decide what to tell them; not much more than generalities, of course. They are supposed to make a proposal to AF (BSD?) on 11 Dec. as to what they would do for a DPC. The blackboard had a list of a number of sources of data when they finished the discussion so that I think WW is now considering that there is a possibility that the DPC will actually have inputs from more than one source. I’ll move the Versamat closer to the film printer space, and put a darkroom adjacent to it.

Went into a CE Board mtg., where we discussed the CE Conference — principally to see why we are short $2400 out of the $20,000 budgeted; about 65 fewer members have pledged. It turned out that the average is $88/pledge, with few under $50, so it is the large number of small pledges that are absent.
CR went to Jordan’s to shop, but was impressed with the high cost of everything!
