  Dear Bea:

  Things are going along well. The ceremonies were fine - we enjoyed the King's dinner and everything.

  Now we are taking off for Amsterdam.

  Would you send Prof. E. Hylleraas, University, Oslo, a ferromagnetism reprint & a 1949 sickle-cell reprint?

  Also, send the note below to Bill Bergmen.

  Norway has been fine - not very cold.

  Otto B. sends his greetings. Also we too.
