Chambers, said that Harvey Anderson of the county forestry dipt. was keeping track of the condor reports from lookouts & others in the Santa Monica Mtns. Drove then to Encinitas to visit Ed Harrison. Ed says that Sid Peyton has told him he has a condor egg and has been offered $750 for it by Tufts of Canada. Stevens (Larry) egg was really obtained from an old collector in Monte- sito for $25 Ed said, & Ed had offered him $50/$50 for it on the spot. The National Geographi cas a condor article written by AA Allen but no picture for it. Pemberton has told Ed not to let them use any of his pictures for illustration. Ed wants to have some of his kadschrones print- ed in the N.G. or elsewhere & is worried about someone else beating him in this field. He has a poor opinion of Dan Bleitz & believes he is only interested in bird pictures because of the commercial angles. Ed has was nice to the old condor nest near the aqueduct that Jim Dixon knew of. Permission to go on the property must be secured from Dixon & Ed believes he can find the spot if Dixon will not go with me. Griffing Bancraft can be found at the Canyonora
