Typescript letter, signed, from William A. Fowler (California Institute of Technology) to FH

Has read Maltby, Matthews and Moffet 'fairly carefully' and is 'impressed by the number of cases where they find a galaxy located at the centroid of two strong components of the radio source'. Discusses this idea, and asks that if FH wants to include a paragraph about it in their article in Nature, he should send such a paragraph to the editor.

Typescript letter, signed, from W.H. McCrea (Warner and Swasey Observatory) to FH

Thanks FH for his letter and citation for W.A. Fowler. The citation sadly did not reach the Society in time, but Hermann Bondi might use it to renominate Fowler next session. Found in Proceedings of he International School of Physics 'Enrico Fermi' cource XX, June-July 1961 (London: Academic Press, 1962), Hoyle Collection QB 178.V3

Typescript letter, signed, from W.H. McCrea (Astronomy Centre, University of Sussex) to FH

Is sorry to have to inform FH that he has not been re-elected a member of the Royal Astronomical Society Club. This is partly because some people were not convinced that this is what FH wanted. It would still be possible for FH to be elected if he made it clear that this was his wish. He is anyway welcome as President of the Society to the privileges that the Club gives to Presidents who are not Club members.

Typescript letter, signed, from W.F. Thomas, Brisbane, Australia, to FH

Sends FH part three of 'The new astronomical cosmology', and hopes to send him 'The moon puzzle solution', 'Nature's telescope' and 'Nature's microscope' at a later date. Explains how 'The new astronomical cosmology' shows that 'Steady-State is not only saved - but wins!'. He did not work his view himself; it was 'revealed' to him by God many years ago, and he 'simply worked out a few details'. Comments on an article by FH about ice ages, and suggests that ice ages might be caused by 'disturbance' in the sun.
