Contains a journal kept by Raymond Wallace in two notebooks of his hitchhiking trip around the western half of the United States from July to Sept., 1935 (forty pages of the first notebook are Wallace's notes from a chemistry course at San Jose State College). Wallace traveled through the Pacific Northwest, east to the Midwest, and as far as St. Paul, Minn., before returning to Calif.

The third notebook includes clippings of these articles, as well as published and unpublished letters written to the editor by various individuals in reaction to his writings. A fourth notebook contains a record of Wallace's trip to Asilomar, Calif., with other students during the winter break of Dec. 1935 to Jan. 1936.
