02100	Dear Mr. McAllister:
02200	
02300	
02400	
02500	I am writing in response to your request for a reference for Harry
02600	Grove Barrow.  Harry Barrow is a very talented young man whose
02700	research work I am familiar with.  He is outstanding in research
02800	on visual perception by computer, certainly one of the top four or
02900	five.  He has also a broad background in artificial intelligence and
03000	a solid knowledge and background of computer techniques.
03100	
03200	I have not had occasion to observe his teaching, but I judge from his
03300	care and organization that he would teach well.  He makes clear and
03400	capable presentation of material and speaks well. 
03500	
03600	I find him very pleasant to be with and to work with.  He seems easy
03700	in manner, solid and aware and considerate of others in professional
03800	dealings.
03900	
04000	In summary, I think very highly of him and recommend him as one of
04100	a very few distinguished researchers.
04200	
04300	
04400	
04500	
04600					Sincerely,
04700
