Dear Dr. Allen:

I am writing you this letter to apply for a job during the coming school year,

It is rather early to apply, but naturally I am doing so as to get the best

job possible. I would like a job in the stadium locker room if possible.

You see, I am very much interested insabhletics, but being too small keeps me
from going out for competitive ball, both basketball and football. I enjoy being
around the players and talking to them. I will be able to work at least twenty
hours a week during the fall semester. If it is possible to do so, I would be
only too happy. I am an ardent physical culturist, and hope to become a doctor
someday.

I also want to ask you a question. What do you think of berbells and dumbells
to build ones body and health? Also”what aretthe best exercises to develop ones
speed in running the dashes in track?

1 woulda appreciate it very much if you would consider me for a position. I know
you will do your upmost for me. If possible would you answer this letter.

Yours very on @

P. S. I have been a student at the University
since July,1944,
