Dear Phog,
Happy New Yeart

As much as I was distressed by the recent Brooklyn-Akron tamper-
ing, I was delighted, too, because it came at a time when your
honest charges needed more specific example.

You know, as well as I know, that truth in most of its forms is
more than unwelcome by most human beings, and I am certain that
your fearlessness (based upon a love of good sport) would
necessarily bring some noisy denial.

But may your right arm be strong whenever and wherever you dare
to continue to speak the truth.

Yours sincerely,

KGR~-4

good company, because enrolments at Wittenberg College,
even before Pearl Harbor, were in such sharp decline that
there is not much more than a shelf left of faculty and
student body. phil
