Dear Mr. Hyames:

’ Thank you for your very nice words regarding my work when
you spent the time with us at Springfield, Ohio. I remember you very
well, s i e

In answer to your inquiry regarding the Lang Foot & Arch |

Normalizer, I would like to state that I use this machine every morning
and night and have done so consistently every since I had the conditioning
school at Georgia Tech at Atlanta, Georgia, about ten or twelve years
ago. Mrs Lang met me one hot August afternoon just after I had finished

with my classe I was very.tired and was on my way to the Ansley Hotel “
where they had the only aireconditioned coffee shop in tom. He wanted
to know if I would give him five minutes of my time. I said, "no" because
I was wanting to get cool. He said, “three minutes then". I thought what
kind of a fellow wouldn't give a man three minutes of his time. I said,
* "yes, three minutes.” He said, “take off shoes." I looked at him
in a most quigical manner, $hen he said, “now take off your socks." The
thought ran through my mind that I had just put them on and I was in no mood
to take them off again. My feet were aching and my legs were tired. ie
said, "now get on this normalizer and roll your feet across it. The
subeuteneous tissues on the plantar area of my feet felt as it they had been —
subjected to the most painful pressure that I had ever experienced, but
after rolling ten times across that normalizer, I got off and I felt as
if I were walking on airs I said, “please send me one of these things."
I have had one every since and have used it for years. It has rehabilitated
my feetal extremities, My feet are ten years younger than they were ten
years ago. 2

I believe that is the best recommendation I could give you. I
have one in my dressing quarters for the men and one is installed in the
women's department. They all are very enthusiastic about it. With all
good wishes, I am es

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education
