Asks for information regarding Captain Abney's knowledge of mathematics as he has a meeting with him shortly regarding the syllabus WMO has to teach at the University. WMO regards the subjects he has been asked to teach as being too much, both for himself and the students, and wishes to make a case to Abney. Also complains vigourously about the hours he has to attend at the University and the amount of work he has to do. Is most aggreived at the situation.
