Dear Sir: |

I am preparing a speech for our local Rotary club about outétandi m
athletes who have been handicapped and who have come through as
champions even in the face of such conditions, As I recall,Glenn

Cu mingham your great mile runner of some years back suffered from
severe burns in his boyhood and that at ome time it was believed that
he might never walk. In the event that you have any available inform-
ation at the University concerning the handicaps of this athlete I
will appreciate having you forward them to me in the self addredsed
envelop attached, Thanking you most sincerily for your cooperation

I am,

ogee _very truly,

tlt Oa,
