From lst Lt. Fred N. Bosilevac, Medical Corps, Millers Field, Staten Island,
Ne Y. = Fred says, "My official capacity is train commander for hospital trains
serving the N. Y. port of embarkation for wounded soldiers, I have been prace
tically all over the country riding and delivering these wounded fellows to
general hospitals in their respective states." Fellows like Fred Bosilevac de-
serve a great deal of credit for struggling for a fine education, Here's hats
off to him and men like him, : . me iy |

, Marvin Vandaveer, athletic director and former coach of all sports at Haskell
Indian Institute, writes from Fort Lewis, Washington, that he is in the medical
corps taking his basic training, The first and anatomy and physiology are

just a review, but the drugs and medicines are tough, he says, He also says he
oan easily see why the mortality rates have been held at such a low level, “It
was estimated that ten minutes after a man was wounded in the European Invasion
he was receiving medical attention," Vandy will finish his basic training and
then will go to school and come out a reconditioning instructor, He will be
placed in a hospital or convalescing camp to give the sick, wounded and crippled
corrective and reconditioning exercises and endeavor to restore them to physical
health, Vandy says for me to pass his congratulations on to Mit Allen who. did
what Vandy thought was a wonderful job with the Haskell boys, Good luck, Vandy,
and here's hoping we will see you back at Haskell before too many months roll by.

Es Ce "Ernie “ Quigley is doing a swell job on securing bonds and donations
for the liquidation of the stadium debt, which is $108,000, Ernie already has
over $25,000 and he says by June first he expects to retire a third of the stadium
debt. If anybody can get the job done, Ernie will do it. He is busy day and —
night, making contacts over the state and getting the plaster off the concrete
horseshoe which enclosed Memorial Stadium Field, |

The Red Cross drive in Devglas County went over with a smashing bans, having
gone over the top of its quota of $35,000 in four days, I heve charge of the Red
Cross drive here on the hill and the students, faculty and employees are responde
ing nobly, It is young people who are fighting this war, It is their brothers and
friends and sweethearts, and the students here are keeping the faith. In the
organization houses the girls spoke to the boys fraternities and clubs, and the
men spoke to the sororities and girls* organizations, The Jay Janes, under the
direstion of Mary Olive Marshall, made the collections, The slogan is a minimum
of a dollar from every student. The Jay Janes are a tried and true organization
and they always deliver the goods.

With the turn of every new day we are hoping and praying that that will be the
last for the outlaws of Germany. And after they are finished off, the little
brown men out west will be on the hot seat, Keep ‘em frying, boys, keep ‘em

frying}
Very sincerely yours,
