Deas Taft:

Thenks very much for your very thoughtful and generous
present of a shoe horn together with two dozen of these
aifficult-to-find and hendyeandy golf spikes. Santa Claus
really knows what to give a fellow in need ~- of spikes.

We wish for you a very prosperous New Year and a happy
one, especially do I wish this more than anything else -
the safe return to our shores of your and Mrs. Talbot's two
fine and heroic sons.

Gratefully and appreciatively yours,

Director of Physical Education,
FCA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
