- Letter from Fritz Laves to LP RE: writes that he read their note in Nature on the crystal structure
of Mg32(Al, Zn)49. Looks forward to their publication of results on this compound. Makes
suggestions for a note they plan to include about not being able to determine the structure. [note
in pen at bottom: "P.S. We didn't even start to try to solve the structure, for several reasons."]

- Letter from LP to W. Albert Noyes, Jr. of the University of Rochester RE: writes in response to
Prof. Noyes, Jr's letter requesting information about stipends paid to graduate students.
Describes the stipend procedure at Caltech. [letter from Prof. W. Albert Noyes, Jr. to LP 3-27-53] [Filed under LP Correspondence: Box #222. Noyes, W.A. 1926-1963].
- Letter from Prof. John C. Slater of the Physics Dept., MIT to LP RE: writes that he probably
heard from Meckler saying that he is not planning on making calculations on either nitrogen or
carbon monoxide similar to the oxygen calculations. Comments, as LP requested, on LP's paper
"A Theory of Ferromagnetism." Hopes that LP will refine his theory. [letter from LP to Prof.
John C. Slater 11-30-53] [Filed under LP Correspondence: Box #296: File (Slater, John C.)].
- Memo From W.N. Lacey to Dr. Niemann cc:LP RE: requests for budget outlines to be submitted.
