Dear John:

\
fhank you for your letter of May 8 and the enclosure. I
quite agree with you that these youngsters are making an
unusual request, and it is apt to be unfulfilled. .

Wool is too critical a material to be mailed about, even
though someone might desire to pay for the same.

I am eurxe that all of us were delighted at V~B Day, and
now we are waiting for V-J Day. That will meke things complete
and we gan once again go back to at leagt a partial normal way
of living. The young boys have had to pay such an excessively
high price for the mad antics of a mess of crackpots.

It was good to have Ray lance with us. He is a fine boy and
@ real gentleman. I enjoyed wy contacts with him very much.

With all good wishes, Ien

Very sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
FOA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
