Irene Noel

Sir: I plan to spend the coming autumn term at Churchill College, Cambridge, working on a biography of my late mother, Irene Noel of Achmetaga, Euboea, later the wife of Philip Noel-Baker of Derby city, statesman and Nobel Peace Prize winner. Many of my mother's diaries and papers are now in the Churchill Archive Centre at this college.

I would be most grateful for any person- al recollections of my mother or other relevant material to be sent either to the Centre or to my Greece address, where I should also be happy to meet those con- cerned. All material will, of course, be acknowledged and returned.
