Dear Dr. Leopold: 
 
     We are expanding our game management and research work and 
hope to employ about five or six additional men. Two types of 
positions will be available: one is titled Assistant Biologist, 
and the other Assistant Biologist-Clerk. The Assistant Biologist 
will work under the immediate supervision of the Game Manager on 
Pittmxan-Robertson development projects and part time on research. 
The Assistant Biologist-Clerk will be primarily concerned with 
office work of the Game Manager and a limited amount of field 
work. We prefer that he have sufficient training so that he may 
be promoted to a higher position when one becomes available. 
 
     We intend to pay the Assistant Biologist 4'1,500.0O a year, 
with an expense account of about $100.00 a month and the Assistant 
Biologist-Clerk $1,200.00 a year, with about $300.00 expense ac- 
count. 
 
     If you have any men that would be interested in these jobs, 
I would appreciate it if you would give them two sheets of the 
enclosed personal memoranda and have them fill them out in dupli- 
cate and return them to this office immediately. If possible, 
I would like to have a photograph and transcript of their work 
with the application. 
 
     Dr. Henika says that your Mr. Busse is a good man. It will 
be necessary that the Assistant Biologist-Clerk be able to use 
a typewriter, and it would be better still if he had had some 
experience in clerical work. 
 
                               Sincerely yours, 
 
 
 
                               Phil Goodrum, Director 
                               Wildlife Restoration
