Dear Principal Myers:

Thank you for asking me to address your high sehool on
Thursday, May 18th. I assure you it would be a pleasure to
be with you, but with gasoline and tire rationing what it
is, it makes it rather difficult to make comections.

IT have been coaching the baseball team heretofore, but
tT am not certain at all that I will do it this year. I be-~
lieve they are hoping to have a team, but no definite
decision has been made as yet. It would be necessary for me
to endeavor to work this date in with my schedule.

I am wondering what honorarium you pay for your comence-
ment speaker.

again thanking you and with kindest personal regards, I am

Sincerely yours,

Direstor of Physical Education,
FCA: Ail Varsity Basketball Coach.
