BR TO FULBRIGHT PROGRAM, 24 FEB. 1949
BRACERS 132316. AL(C). McMaster
Proofread by K. Blackwell

The applicant,1  is well known to me, and I have had ample opportunity to judge of his work. He has great seriousness of purpose. His personality is agreeable and he shows no lack of adaptability,a as is evident from the fact that he is popular with English students. I have no doubt that both socially and from the point of view of intellectual output he abundantly deserves a scholarship.

  • 1applicant Irving Lavin (1927–2019), art historian.
