July 19, 1946 Cple Ralph Wygle - 17177020 Hg and Hgs Sqdne 24th Gth Ae Se As Co Ae Pe Oo 264 San Francisco, California Dear Bills - Undoubtedly you have heard from Coach George Sauer by this. time about your football eligibility and prospects for next year. I turned your letter over to him and asked that he answer it because jou will be playing for him this fall, if you get back. I am sure you will like Coach Sauer and you will find that he is a great coach. , The fall term begins September 26, but registration and enrollment will be the week previous. Of course, there is a football game with T.C.U. on September 21 in Kansas City, Missouri, and so if you could get back by the first of September for practice, it would be well to do 80. There will be no short term before the regular term this years Prospects look very good for the football team, There are some excellent backs and ends, but tackle positions are a little -weake You could help them out a lot there. _— The weather here has been almost as hot as it is over there. It was 104° in the shade yesterday. If it continues, we will all be @s sunburned as your children, By the way, you developed quite a family over there in a short time. I got a bang out of the pictures you sente Joe Ryan was in this week on leave from Fort Benning, I: expect the Army down there will go to pot until Joe gets back. He told me he had had a visit with you before he came back to the States. I think you whll be eligible this fall without any question, since you left school to join the armed forces, We will be looking for you to bolster up that left tackle position and I will try to toughen you up for it in a physical education class. Yours sincerely, Henry A. Shenk, HS MF . Director of Physical Education.
