Dr. Marvin L. Goldberger
President

California Institute of Technology
Pasedena, California 91109

Dear Marvin:

I just received the note that your inauguration ceremony will be
held on Friday, October 27. My calendar for this fall is already about
as firmly booked as, unhappily, yours is likely to be-and I find that
I am already firmly anchored in Washington for that particular date.

I am sure that you know my earnest good wishes for you and for
CalTech far transcend this unfortunate conflict.

Yours sincerely,

oshua Lederberg

President
