- Letter from F. Douglas Lawrason, National Research Council, to LP RE: Travel vouchers are being sent to LP in order to reimburse
him for his trip to Washington. Also discusses LP's conference on Oxypolygelatin. [Filed under LP Science: 14.016].
- Letter from LP to Dr. F. Hilton RE: is getting ready for a trip away from Pasadena and is
participating in a meeting of the American Chemical Society in L.A. and therefore is not able to
prepare a proper discussion of the question raised in Dr. Hilton's last note. Goes on to discuss the
benzene ring as it relates to quantum mechanical theory and Lapworth's theory. [note from Dr.
Hilton to LP 3-14-53].
- Letter from LP to Prof. Holger Hyden of the Histologiska Institutionen, Sweden RE: sends some
reprints on the structure of proteins, nucleic acids, etc. Is unable to summarize it as there is too
much info. May see him when he visits Stockholm for the International Congress in July and
August.
- Letter from LP to Tomoji Tanaka RE: writes that he has read the material that Mr. Tanaka sent
him, and he does not really understand it. Says that he believes that the existing theory of atomic
spectra seems to him to be satisfactory and does not need correction. [sent Mr. Tanaka's
manuscript back to him] [previous letters from Tomoji Tanaka to LP 3-8-53, 3-20-53, letters and
manuscripts of response from Tomoji Tanaka to LP 4-8-53, 4-30-53].
- Letter from LP to Dr. Walter S. Vincent RE: answers Dr. Vincent's letter by sending copies of
the papers on the structure of nucleic acids as he requested. Goes on to describe his future plans
of work on the same topic. [letter from Dr. Vincent to LP 3-13-53].
- LP writes cheque to: Beatrice J. Wulf amount: $100.00
- AHP writes cheque to: Manor Market amount: $100.00
- Letter from W.H. Taylor of Cavendish Laboratory to LP RE: enquires about what programs are
going on at Caltech so as to not perform any research overlaps in their own laboratory. Mentions
their current work on the structure of complex alloy phases. [letter from LP to Dr. W. H. Taylor
3-30-53] [Filed under LP Correspondence: Box #328, file: (Taylor, W. H.)].
- Letter from LP to Dr. E.M. Weber, Pfizer RE: Pleased that interest was shown in the protein conference, but replies that abstracts
of the conference are not available. Includes reprints of faculty's papers on the subject of protein structure. [Letter from
Weber to LP 3-3-53, letter from LP to Weber 2-6-53]
