| Description | Says that, once Frank [Drake] has returned [from Arecibo Ionospheric Observatory], he will, as Associate Director, CRSR [Center for Radiophysics and Space Research], take over most of the responsibilities that Gold currently has for the Observatory. Says that he will clear Dr Pettengill's appointment with the funding agencies and the Bracewell committee. Says that, once that has been done, they can make the announcement [probably about Dr Pettengill becoming Director of the Observatory] whenever Frank and Dr Pettengill think it appropriate. |
