At 9.15 I am off on the Southern Pacific, having
lown over in can go. Will get to Houston at 8.30
tomorrow morning.
Sunday enroute to Austin, Jan 3-1926.
Got to Houston on time; the day is dark
and all nature is quiet. Had breakfast at the
station and at 9.15 A.M. I am off for Austin.
Doctor Blesocrell formerly of Yale and of the Univ.
of Texas is also on his way to Austin and we
spend the six hours together talking about college
things. He now teaches Spanish instead of German.
The Univ. of Texas has 3000 students in Spanish.
I have taken a room in the new The Austin
Hotel and I am thinking of making this my home
during the next ten weeks.
Blesocrell said I would have no trouble in
talking all sorts about evolution, only I should not
turn down religion and speak against the
little. He thinks I should give a lecture on the
evolution of man.
