Dear Captain Heinlen:

It was gracious of you to write me as you did
in your January 15th letter. I an very happy thas your
‘appraisal of Otto Schnellbacher as a soldier and an ath-
lete is very high.

We are very fond of Schnellbacher, as he is a
great Dutchman. He is a competitor and a real gentleman.

I congratulate you also on the fine record that
your outfit made.

 

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
