Nevertheless, we avoid Weyl’s weak point. Up to now, the calculations I have made with respect to gravitational and electromagnet- ic fields have given results already known. As to the structure of electrons, the calculations are so complicated that I have not been able to obtain anything definitive up to the present. In a thundering round of applause, Professor Einstein ends his third lecture and, with it, the series he gave at the university.
