- Letter from LP to Max Delbruck RE: Discusses Watson's upcoming trip to CIT for a virus symposium. LP states that he feels
the work Watson is doing with Crick is important enough to warrant him going back to Cambridge for the two months between
the symposium and his planned research at CIT in the fall. He then states that he was "very deeply impressed" by the Watson-Crick
structure of DNA. He goes on to discuss the problems that he had with the crystallography results, and how King's College
had a better result that enabled them to deduce the double-helical structure. LP closes by saying that there is a chance Watson
and Crick are wrong, but that it is not very likely. [Filed under LP Science: 9.001].
