Dr. Denis L. Fox
Scripps Oceanographic Institute
La Jolla, California
Dear Dr. Fox:
This is a belated answer to your note of October 9. I had an interesting talk with Professor Zechmeister about your plans, which seem to me to be entirely satisfactory. I am glad that you are applying for a Guggenheim Fellowship.
I was pleased to learn about your work at the Corona meeting, and I am looking forward to talking with you further about the scientific problems in which we are both interested. Perhaps when the war is over, and we are not so busy, we can have additional discussions. I am looking forward, in fact, to stopping to see you in La Jolla when the gasoline situation permits us to drive around more freely.
Cordially yours,
Linus Pauling
