Mr. Lacy Haynes, —

Kansas City, Kensas.

Dear Lacy:

; Agein I want to thank you for helping Mit. It was
you and a few other of his friends that helped him out so

that he could obtain his comission. He is tickled pink to

be able to serve his country.

Many times he said to me, “Dad, I can't beal to walk
along Massachusetts Street in civilian gar”, and yet he
realized he had a wife and family and a home that he must
finish peying for, and he was torn between two great emotions.
I am so happy for him and I just want again to thank you a
theusend times for helping hin. ;

ee tie haven't seen much of each other, but we are hoping
thet the war years will soon cease and that we will have a
chance for one of these good old-fashioned visits. My admiration
and affection to your lovely fanily and yourself. .

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Bducation,
FGA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
