| 8 Denman Drive Golders Green London N.W.11. 8th May 1934. Dear Sir Mr Robbins of the I.A.E. recommended me to write to you with regard to the vacancy you had in your experimental dept. as he had not heard whether you had filled it or not. I am enclosing particulars of my qualifications. I have covered the syllabus of the B.Sc (Eng) Lond. with a full time course but for the moment have had to stop tuition for this owing to circumstances. However I very much want to start this work again and sit for the B.Sc as soon as possible. I would be very grateful if the vacancy has not been filled, if you could give me an interview. Yours Sincerely T S Shelwen | ||
