• Letter from LP to Chancellor Frederick M. Hunter RE: Due to his sincere interest in the Department of Chemistry at Oregon State College, LP offers a few suggestions as to the development of the department. LP believes that Professor John Fulton is inadequate for the job of head of the department because he has done little if any scientific work himself. He goes on to suggest that Dr. Paul H. Emmett be a good candidate for the position. [Hunter's reply: July 21, 1936] [Filed under: H: Correspondence, Box #165.1]
