  Dear Mamma,

  How are you? I'm ok. Today I got the post card with a picture of an airplane on it. Will you please send the ten bucks for class dues or a check? Tommy Midgley is getting anxious and asked that all the borders bring it this weekend. I can't, so do the above. Please. Rolls Royce engines are noted for their power they are good engines. What kind of plane was it? On Monday evening (it will leave Tues. morn.) I will not write after that because we'll see you before you would get a letter. Tomorrow I will go home!! Oh I can hardly wait until I go! Linda was complaining in her last letter that she did not have any money. I think she got my letter today or will get it tomorrow. Gotta go,

  Love,

  Dear Mom,

  How are you? I am OK. On Friday I got the "Folkard" you mailed Halloween. On Friday (next) I will be at the airport with Pete to pick you up. The Chadwicks said I could come home on that weekend. I got my laundry done at the Coxes yesterday. Their washer does a wonderful job. This will be my next to the last letter. I will mail one Tues. (write it Mon. evening) to you in care of Dr. David E. Green, 1702 University Avenue

  Madison, Wis.

  This morning I put leaflets on peoples doorsteps advertising Esterman and Spears (I was helping Chas Cox). While doing so I met I. H. Spears. He is running for #47 assembly. He is a negroe but that doesn't make any diff. I gotta go to bed.

  Dear Mamma,

  How are you? I am ok. To-day I got two letters from you from Philadelphia and a post card from some-place in New York. I also got a letter from Linda. No, you didn't tell me Sue was sick. What is the matter with her? It is too bad. I am feeling fine now. I do like my new roommate better. Dunno when I would get work done if I came with you. You won't have time to come and see me at [?] but I thought you could work it with Commander Chadwick that I come home that weekend. If I don't come home (which is improbable) Sat. the 11, would be better because I get up at 6:30, eat breakfast at 7, start work at 8, finish at 10:30. I might be able to get lunch away so we could go some where. On Sunday we have vespers which takes over an hour (getting ready takes a half an hour and vespers starts at 5). My Xmas list: 2 sweaters, 1 of them navy, the other some nice color of your choice. Be sure to get them large enough. I'd like a nice leather bound dictionary (a good one). Other wise I can't think of much more so anything you think I will like. What do you want for Xmas? When I go home over the weekend I think I will spend Friday nite at the Coxes and Sat. nite at home. I gotta get ready for dinner soon. I am going to write Linda tonite and Peter Busch and Peter Pauling.

  Gotta go,

  Love,

  Dear Mom,

  How are you? I'm ok. Today I received your "Folkard" with a picture of your hotel in Ottawa on it. This morning I wrote a letter to Linda, a letter to Doug, and a letter to Pete Busch. I know that you will not get this letter until Sunday but no other addresses were given until Sunday's. Do you speak French to many people? I will not write you on Friday but will send a letter to the Drake at Chicago on Sat. morning. Never mind writing Commander about me coming home on the weekend you come home, because Minnie and I can work it. Today is Hallow'een! WE get off of some of Study Hall (1 ½ hours, to be exact) to go to some shindig. I tore one of my new T-shirts a little bit, but I can sew it up if I want to. Can you read my writing? Danny (my English teacher) can't. I weigh 110 lbs. and I am 5 ft. 4 in. tall. Is Linda 5 ft. 7 in.? If so, I think that by the end of the school year, I will be taller than she is. My 110 lbs. makes me on the highest limit for the B basketball team. On Thanksgiving, let's go up to [Chalao?]. I gotta go get ready for dinner.

  Have fun, cherie,

  Love,

  Dear Parents,

  How are you? I'm ok. Today I got the "Folkard" from Ottawa showing the Interprovincial Bridge at Ottawa. Last nite the faculty staged "MacBeth." It was very good. Yes, Pete comes to see me and he "bringed" Daphne. I am feeling fine now. I like my roommate better than my old one. Have you ever been in Canada before? The beavers must of been very interesting. Did you take any pictures of the beavers? Did you take many nice pictures? Is the food good? One of the boys asked to let me let him ride my [??]. My face is quite good now. When I write you I feel like I am talking to you. My roommate feels bad now. Idon't know what is the matter with him. Day after tomorrow I go home. I will write tomorrow (it will leave Fri.) To the Drake. Gotta go now.

  Love,

  Dear Mamma,

  Because I do not have your addresses yet, I will write today's letter and tomorrow's letter and send them in the same envelope. The package will come tomorrow, I'm sure. I received your telegram this morning. I was very surprised to get. The reason the address is spelled wrong on my last letter is because I asked Minnie and she did not know how to spell it. I am waiting to take a shower. Now I just took it. I am ready for dinner. Dinner is in 35 mins. My tummy ache is well. I think that it is going to rain here tonight. When your itinerary comes, I will write tomorrow's letter tomorrow evening and send it to your first place in Canada. I will go now.

  Love,

  Crelly

  P.S. I will write tomorrow.

  Monday Evening

  Chadwick School

  Dear Mom and Pop,

  This letter is an answer to your letters of Nov.3 and Nov. 4 and also is the last letter that I shall write to you because I will see you before you would get another letter. Yes, our class dues are $10.00. I presume that you have mailed it by now. I am OK. I sent a letter to Guelph at the [Communith?] House, and you say you did not get it. I had a wonderful time at home this weekend. Yes, I like my roommate. No, his father is not an architect. He is an M.D. I will meet you at the airport on Friday. I am getting along fine in school. English makes a little better sense, but not much. I didn't go to the folk-dance because Doug Cox didn't want to. He acted in an opera on Sunday. I didn't see it. Mrs. Chadwick and Pierre thanked me for your greetings and said the same to you. I got an A- on an Anc. Hist. It P.O.D. me [?]. I should of had an A. There, I just finished my ice cream sandwich. I will see you on Fri. I gotta go.

  P.P.S. The Coxes say hello.

  Tuesday

  Chadwick School

  Dear Mom,

  How are you? How was your plane trip? What airlines did you go on? Will you write to me everyday? I will write you every day.

  This morning I changed roommates. Now I room with Bob Coates. I wanted so much to go with you on this trip, but I didn't ask you ‘cause I knew that the chances were nil. My tummy ache is better, but I do not have much of an appetite.

  Minni will not believe that I have a tummy ache. She says that I was just trying to get to come home and see you.

  What time this morning did the plane leave? I might not write tomorrow because I probably will not get your itinerary till Thursday. Will you be back on Nov. 10? On that day Chadwick plays Flintridge at Flintridge. I was thinking that I could go to the game and you could come also and I would see you but maybe it would be better if you came down and saw me for a longer time. After I mail this letter, I will read my new Readers' Digest.

  Much Love,

  Crelly

  Sent from Drake Hotel Chi.[cago]

  I approve plan generally. However I strongly urge change of regulations pages 10 and 11 which severely handicap institutions such as CIT. We admit 180 freshmen selected by examination from about 1000 applicants. I believe practically all students would be in top half of class in average school. Very small number of failures or D grades. Could not required standing be left to discretion of regional boards?

  Thank you for your letter, which arrived while I was away on an eastern trip.

  I am very glad to hear what has happened, and I hope that you come out all right, without suffering serious consequences for adherence to your principles.

  I haven't heard anything more about my local situation, nor have I talked to anybody about it. There has been some indication that it will become lively a little later this winter.

  With best regards, I am

  Mr. Sidney Weinbaum

  PMB 21593

  Steilacoom, Washington

  Dear Sidney:

  I have just returned from an eastern trip, during which I talked before some sections of the Chemical Institute of Canada, and also attended the meeting of the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia.

  I have been pleased to learn from Lena that you are getting along all right. If there is something that I can do for you, please let me know.

  Dr. Corey and I have prepared and sent off to the Journal of the American Chemical Society a brief note on the different structures that we have found for the folded polypeptide chain, compatible with the structural information available. Dr. Corey is not continuing work on the comparison of predicted distribution functions and those reported for hemoglobin by Perutz. We are changing the calculations that you made of the radical distribution functions by including also a carbon atom of each side chain. The position of this carbon atom can be predicted without difficulty. There is, rather, one difficulty – we do not know whether the spiral is a right handed or a left handed spiral, relative to the left handed configuration of the amino acid residues, and so there are two possible sets of positions for the side chain carbon atoms.

  I don't know whether you had heard that Mr. Bergman had had to go to the hospital for an operation over a month. He had had one of his ureters clogged up by a kidney stone, causing hydronephrosis. An operation was performed to see just what was wrong and to remove the stone. Then, after he came back from the hospital, he continued to get worse, and finally had to go again for a second operation, which seems to have been successful.

  He and David Shoemaker succeeded in determining the structure of the sigma alloys. They found that these alloys have a tetragonal structure, with 30 atoms in the unit call. It is a very interesting structure, which can be described as obtained from hexagonal closest packing, through a distortion and rotation of alternate layers through 90º.

  Sincerely yours.

  Linus Pauling

  P.S. I hope that you will write to me sometime.

  P.P.S. I have just learned that Bob Smith has continued to have trouble and has had to withdraw from the Institute because of his health.

  Mr. Warren P. Chernock

  Argonne National Laboratory

  P.O. Box 5207

  Chicago 80, Illinois

  Dear Mr. Chernock:

  The determination of the structure of the sigma phase mentioned in your letter was made by Dr. David Shoemaker and Mr. Gunnar Bergman in our laboratories. A note about it will appear in the December issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society, and a detailed paper will be published sometime next year.

  I enclose a copy of the note. I may say that I believe the crystals used were iron-chromium crystals, selected from a powder obtained by annealing the alloy at a temperature somewhat under 900°. We have at hand powder x-ray data for sigma phases from a number of other alloy systems, and I believe that Dr. Shoemaker and Mr. Bergman will include the powder data, with the lines indexed, in their detailed paper.

  If there is other information that you would like to have, you might write directly to Dr. Shoemaker, at this address.

  Sincerely yours,

  Linus Pauling:W

  11-21-50

  To: Professor Pauling

  From: Walt Schroeder

  Subject: Number of Isoleucine Residues Per Molecule of Hemoglobin

  In the paper which described the analysis of hemoglobins, we stated that the minimum molecular weight of both proteins must be about 67,000 because there is only one isoleucine residue per molecule of thus weight but we did not comment further on this point.

  Recently, I have wondered whether we should not have called more attention to this fact because it does not show that in human Hb any dissociation by urea or in very dilute solution must result in dissimilar fragments. Dr. Corey and I think that a short to the JACS which stresses this result might be worthwhile.

  However, in looking up literature for this note I have been unable to find any statement which suggests that hemoglobin might disassociate into identical fragments of half or quarter molecular weight or that the molecule might contain four identical peptide chains & coincide with the four hemes although both Dr. Corey and I fell that we have heard or read such statements.

  Do you think that such a note would be advisable and are you aware of any published statements such as I have described?

  Walt

  Dr. Ralph Spitzer

  Brooklyn, New York

  Dear Ralph:

  Thanks for your letter.

  I shall write to H. Baker of Nottingham and District Technical College at once.

  I shall send off my protest to the Secretary of State at once, too. I have been kept so busy with various activities that this protest got put to one side, but I have decided that the time has come to get it in, and I shall do it now. I am planning to say in the letter that it is not my intention to release the letter to the Secretary of State to the press at the present tine, and to phrase my letter in such a way as to encourage the Secretary to give you your passport.

  Cordially yours,

  Linus Pauling:W
