Dear Roland;

I have been informed that there is no diner on the train
on which we arrive from Buffalesg the same arriving at Vest Point
at 9320 Asiie in the morning, on December 26_ Since the boys will not

F possibly get to bed too early, leaving Niagara and Buffalo, I will

_ adept the Scoteh plan of letting them sleep a little late in the
morning so they will forget about breakfast until they awakens

I am wondering if you would be kind enough to make some
arrengenent for us for breakfast at one of the restaurants or ons
of the eating places nearbye Something like a 50g meal of the
kind that midewesterners are accustomed to will satisfy us perfectlye
Of course, if we cannot get it for 50¢ in the east, we will pay more,
but we countryefolks are accustomed to plain faree Therefore, we
will appreciate any arrangement that you might make in our behalf.

I have written Cole Hibbs asking that he make a reservation
for my daughter, Eleanor, who is a sophomore in the College here, and
who has a dance date with one of the Cadets for the 27th. I dislike
to bother him, but Eleanor desired to stay at the Thayer Hotel the
nights of the 26th and the 27th, and I thought I had better take
time by the forelock and endeavor to make arrangements before the
time of our arrival, which might be too lates Therefore, if you can
make this arrangement without disturbing Col, Hibbs, I will be grateful

Thanking you in advance for your kindness and hoping to ©
see you Thursdey morning, I an, |

' Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recreation
