Berkeley, Saturday Feb 29.
Spent the greater 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 Hill Mountain structure that of
a specialist can understand. Rainfall etc
record in lithology checked here at three
types. It all relates to the Cretaceous
and Cenozoic times. Finally left tired out
and retired to the hotel, he not seeing a single
one of my maps. Said I would do this at
some other day. Then he gave me arms
describing in formal 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 met Landon and Cread.
Late in the afternoon read the many letters
received here at Bruce Clark and answered 8
of them before retiring.
Rainy as a day.
