Letter from Leonard Rieser, Jr., Dartmouth College, to Robert Oppenheimer, Princeton University, inviting him again to speak to the students of the Physics Dept.

 

February 11, 1959

Dr. J.R. Oppenheimer
Institute for Advanced Study
Princeton, New Jersey

Dear Dr. Oppenheimer:

           I wrote to you on November 4 concerning your prospective visit
to Dartmouth during the first week in March. It is my understanding
that you will be giving a lecture Thursday evening, March 5. In my
letter I asked whether you would be willing to speak informally
on a physical topic to the faculty and advanced students in the depart-
ment. In the absense of any word from you I am writing again in
hopes that you will agree to this.

           I look forward to meeting you again and shall await word regard-
ing the above.

Sincerely yours,
Leonard M. Rieser, Jr.
Chairman

LMR/DS
