Would Adorno have been aware of Heidegger's speeches as rector of Freiburg?

This may be a long shot as it's kind of a niche question, so here's hoping.

I'm writing a small paper on *The Jargon of Authenticity* and also looking through some of Heidegger's speeches as rector in *The Heidegger Controversy*, and they seem like a natural fit. I'm wondering, would the content of these speeches have been public knowledge in the 60's? Adorno doesn't mention them and mostly focuses on *Being and Time*. Did Adorno not see the speeches as worth referencing? Or were they just not available yet? Or...?

Thanks!

I did a quick pdf scan and Adorno's *Ontology and Dialectics* lectures of 1960/61 (published last year!) make reference to Heidi's Freiburg address (lecture 17 specifically, given in Jan of 1961). *Ontology and Dialectics* is an all out attack on Heidegger in general, so it might be of interest as a general point, especially if you're writing on *Jargon*.
