Dear President Mertin:

Tt am very happy to commend for your consideration Mr.
Warner A. Coffin who graduated from the University of Kansas 3

education. :

Mr. Coffin was one of ow better students in the departe-
ment. He lettered in varsity baseball in 1957. He was oa member
of my freshman basketball team and the freshman football team.
Wis laboratory experience én these varsity teams has given him an

observing student. lie has a fine personality with boys. !is work
ig not of the mere adoidental type, but is founded upon experience

spring of 1942 to enter the service of his comtry. Lieutenant
