Dear Dr. Allen:

Thank you for your good letter of March 20th in which you
mention the name of Charles Cooper, sixteen-year old son
of Postmaster C. 0. Coover of Saluda, North Carolina,
From this boy's record he is doubtless a strong student
and the type we like to bring to the University. You
will find enclosed a copy of my letter to Charles, which
I hope will have some influence in swinging him this way.

The boy seems to have had considerable success in the
field of sports as well as in the field of band,

Thank you very kindly for calling this matter to my atten-
tion, x
