QD STANFORD UNIVERSITY yyy 1. 1962 STANFORD, CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY July 16, 1962 Professor J, Lederberg Department of Genetics Sehool of Medicine Stanford University Medical Center Dear Joshua: I think the evidence indicates that Eigen will not accept our invitation, nor do I think it is likely that he will take any other of the various offers tendered to him by other American universities -- at least not in the near future. ma) Marvin Chodorow's expansion of the Applied Ss Physics Division, and his strengthening of instrumen-_ ¥ tation here should be a definite asset in other cam- paigns we have under consideration. I look forward to meeting him and learning more of his plans. Thanks for your note. Sincerely, J. Flory
