Dear Bob:
I am glad to have your letter, and to know how things are going. I wish that I could see the N.F.I.P. exhibit - I am sure that it is first-rate. Despite the inroads on research time, the work is probably worth while.
I have written to Badger, asking him to talk with you about the possibility of using polarized infrared radiation as an aid in the structure determination.
The drawings that Mrs. Reinecke has been making will be hare just in time, if they arrive in a week or so.
I have continued to work on my theory of metals, and have been doing nothing about proteins. However, I am looking forward to being back home, and to thinking about that subject again.
Sincerely yours,
[Linus Pauling]
