Dear Dec:

Received your weleome letter and was very glad
to hear from you. I have been getting along very nice-
ly with my correspondence work, but he University does
not keep me supplied with lessons and I often have sev-
eral days with nothing to do. I wish that you could pur-
suade the correspondence study bureau to send the remainder
of the course to me so that i will not have any days with
nothing to do. I will only send in eight lessons a week
if that is their ruling but, I do not have any time to waste
on these courses if I want to be eligible to play basket-
ball next year. 7 :

I have been getting B and Bplus on my assignments
that I have turned in to the bureau.e. I like the course
very much and do not have any extreme difficulty in
preparing my assignments. In regard to that other course
I have never heard any thing from the bureau about it. In
your letter I understood you to say that you had told them
to enroll me in the course as soon as possible. If they
will do this I will send them a check for the tuition
as soon as I hear from them. So far I have only received
12 lessons from the university and at that rate I will never
get through with the courses in time for enrollment at
the proper time,

If you will see what you can do about the holdup
of the lessons I will greatly appreciate it. Also if
they are enrolling me in Foods and Nutrition please notigy
Rowlands to send me the Texts for the course, and to bill
me for the same, Used texts will be alright. Will be
looking forward to heraing from you very soon.

Yours traly,
