Not the best move.The Library of Congress is huge, and your detective trail will get cold in that direction.

Correct !
Finding aids, you remember, will tell you what is contained in collections, and the University archives will have manuscripts by or about Fritz. You can locate them by using ASA.
Wrong – Today Fritz Lab is filled with engineering students and professors, and will likely have turned over any archival documents by Fritz to university archives.
