14 November 1954
Dear Fred:
We were surely pleased with the Nobel Prize - also with your letter. We expect all of the children to come to Stockholm with us. Peter and Linda, of course, are in England already.
As to the Rhodes Scholarship, I probably was lucky not to get it, because I think conditions were better in Pasadena than in Oxford. The Oxford people were burned up too when they learned, in 1948 while I was Eastman Professor there, that I had been turned down in 1922!
Sincerely,
Linus
