Dear Dr. Vere:

\J	Thank-you for your letter of June 16, 1973 concerning your interest in
Artificial Intelligence and professorial openings in the field.  My sincere 
apologies for the long time lag in response.  The summer has been a busy one,
and your letter was misplaced accidently.  I shall be interested to read the
paper you enclosed at my earliest convenience.\.

\J	In regard to possible openings at Stanford, I suggest that you contact
Professor Robert Floyd, Department Chairman, directly if you have not already 
done so.  Professor Floyd has knowledge and interest in your area, as well as
information about position openings, and I feel he would be best able to assist you.\.



					Sincerely yours,



					John McCarthy
					Professor of Computer Science
					Director, Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
