Major Events
-
Dan Campbell arrives in Pasadena as a Rockefeller Fellow (his fellowship begins on January 1). Although he comes to do crystal structure studies on hemoglobin, he ends up in serological work and eventually obtains a permanent position in immunochemistry. He and Pauling will collaborate on several papers.
- Pauling publishes a paper in JACS, which will become his ninth most cited, on the theory of the structure and the process of formation of antibodies. His view, later called the instructive theory of antibody formation, postulates that the antigen acts as a template that directs the folding of the nascent antibody chain. In his model, antibody molecules of a given amino-acid sequence have the potential for forming combining sites of many different specificities. The particular one formed depends on the antigen present at the time of folding. A consequence of Pauling’s theory is that a specific antibody cannot be formed in the absence of the corresponding antigen, but this prediction differs from experimental results that are obtained in various laboratories.
- Beginning in the summer, during the Battle of Britain, CIT devotes an increasingly large part of its personnel and facilities to the furthering of national defense and the war effort.
- On July 23, Pauling delivers his first important lecture on something other than science: He speaks to the local chapter of the Federal Unionist Club in Pasadena on Union Now (this organization, in which both Linus and Ava Helen Pauling are active, is devoted to bringing British children to America to escape the threatened invasion of Great Britain). Pauling tells his audience that the war going on is one between democracy and autocracy, that the United States is in a precarious position, and that if England is defeated, the United States will become an economic slave of Germany. Pauling wants to stop Hitler quickly, before he does more harm.
- On July 26, Pauling and Max Delbrück publish a paper in Science on the nature of the intermolecular forces operative in biological processes. Their paper is a response to the German physicist Pascual Jordan’s advocacy of the idea that, because of quantum mechanical resonance, identical molecules attract one another more strongly than nonidentical molecules. Pauling believes, because of his work on antibodies, that biological specificity results from the detailed molecular complementariness of the interacting groups. Furthermore, the extra energy from quantum mechanical resonance is less than the energy of thermal agitation. In the opinion of Pauling and Delbrück, the processes of synthesis and folding of complex molecules in living cells involve such intermolecular interactions as hydrogen-bond formation which provide stability to a system of two molecules with complementary structures in juxtaposition (rather than Jordan’s two molecules with identical structures).
- In the fall, Pauling signs an open letter to Congress that states that he and the other signers believe that "the Axis powers—Germany, Italy and Japan—have clearly demonstrated that it is their purpose not merely to defeat their present enemies, but to conquer and dominate the world and to impose upon the peoples of the world a form of physical, mental, and spiritual slavery designed solely to perpetuate the domination of the Axis Powers."
- Pauling believes that the Axis Powers can and will be defeated if the American people do their part. He begins to do his part by becoming involved in various types of war work in explosives, rocket propellants, and medical research.
- At the invitation of Pauling, Laszlo Zechmeister comes to CIT. He is widely known for his research in chromatography and spectroscopy.
- The second edition of The Nature of the Chemical Bond is published.
- On October 3, Pauling attends a meeting in Washington in which mention is made of the need for an instrument that can measure the partial pressure of oxygen in a gas. In only three days, Pauling is able to devise the basic idea for a simple and effective instrument fulfilling this purpose based on the magnetic susceptibility of molecular oxygen. At CIT, he and his collaborators build this oxygen detector, whose main component is a small glass dumbbell with hollow spheres to which a mirror is attached which is suspended on a quartz fiber in an inhomogenous magnetic field. Hundreds of these instruments will be built for use in submarines and airplanes.
- In October, Pauling has a severe sore throat and feels very ill. A month later, he notices that his neck is so swollen that he cannot button his collars.
- During the November elections, the CIT students organize a debate on the Democratic and Republican candidates. Pauling ably defends the positions of President Roosevelt against Wendell L. Wilkie.
