- Letter from LP to Dr. E. Bright Wilson Jr. RE: Thanks Wilson for this the list of publications. LP reports that he has found a lot of new errors in the Quantum Mechanics so he thinks before too much time goes by they should revise it.

Dear Thorfin:
I do not know of any man who is especially suited for the vacancy in your group working on spectroscopic biochemical investigations. There are some good young men around here, but noe [sic] at present who is trained as an organic chemist. Moreover, your qualification that the man should have ambition and drive is a very rigorous one. In this respect I could strongly recommend Dr. Coryell, who is also deeply at present in biochemistry, although trained as a physical chemist, but I think it probable that he would not leave his magnetic investigations here unless his salary were somewhat greater than $2400. If there were a good opening for Coryell at hand, I would be willing to see him leave us next June, although I hope that he will continue the magnetic work here for another year.
With best wishes to you and Phoebe for your trip abroad, I am
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling
- Letter from LP to W. C. Morgan RE: LP highly recommends Dr. George W. Wheland for the assistant professor position at the University of California at L. A. LP says there is no one more qualified in both organic chemistry and quantum mechanics as he is. [Morgan's letter: December 3, 1936] [Filed under: W: Individual Correspondence, Box #434.7]
