    Director August Schou

    The Nobel Committee of the Norwegian Parliament

    Drammensvei 19

    Oslo, Norway

    Dear Director Schou:

    I am writing to tell you that all four of our children have now decided to come to Oslo for the Nobel ceremony. At first some of them were uncertain, but the importance of the occasion caused them all to decide to come, and each will bring a member of his or her family.

    Could you reserve rooms for all of them, for a few days, beginning 7 December? Those who will come are the following:

    Dr. Linus Pauling, Jr., from Honolulu, with his eldest son Linus Fowler Pauling.

    Dr. Peter J. Pauling, from London, with his wife, Julia.

    Mr. E. Crellin Pauling, from Seattle, Washington, with his wife Lucy.

    Mrs. Linda Pauling Kamb, from Pasadena, with her husband Professor W. Barclay Kamb.

    I trust that it will be possible also for them to attend the banquet.

    I apologize for the delay in sending the copy of my Nobel Lecture. I am, however, sending the copies to you by air mail today.

    Sincerely yours,

    Linus Pauling:hpg
