Mr. Thayer Thorndyke, President

Alhambra, California
Dear Mr. Thorndyke:
I am sending you the enclosed copy of my letter to young Mr. Wawra in the hope that you can be of help to him with the problem which confronts him, in case that it continues to be a problem. The matter is, of course, not a serious one at present, but I have been afraid that Mr. Wawra's youth, inexperience, and lack of familiarity with American customs might lead him into difficulties, unless he were given some advice now. I am sure that you will understand that men who have worked hard to obtain the degree of Doctor of Philosophy are interested to see that the title is properly used.
With best personal regards, I am
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling
