Where can I find the 1927 quote of JB Rhine ““I think, too, we are tiring of chasing the psychic rainbow or the philosophic pot of gold”

It appears in The Elusive Science: Origins of Experimental Psychical Research by Seymour H. Mauskopf and Michael R. McVaugh (The Johns Hopkins University Press, 1980).

It appears in chapter four, p. 79, footnoted: "24. Typed note, 'Summary of the Situation, Past Present, and Perspective [sic] Future, Jan. 23, 1927." The note is probably archived here: https://archives.lib.duke.edu/catalog/paralab
