Berkeley, Saturday Feb 29. Spent the great part of the day with Prof. Bruce Clark trying to talk Paleography, but he insisted to tell me if what he is doing in structural geology and tectonics. All which is detailed Hercul Mountains structure that of a specialist can understand. Dayfall I got tired out on lithology, checked her at there by fossils. It all relates to the Cretaceous and Cenozoic times. Finally I got tired out and retired to the hotel, he only seeing a single one of my maps. Said I could do this at some other day. Then he gave me arms describing mineral terms the tectonics, and in reading this I got to understand better what he tried to tell me. Had lunch with Clark at the Faculty Club and had one Lanson and Bread. Late in the afternoon send the many letters received here at Bruce Clark and answered 8 of them before retiring. Rainy as day.
