Dear Dre Allen:

For some time I have been very much interested in means of
building cardiac reserves [Aceunulated evidence in the last few years
would indicate that the giving of vitamin B compound, glycine, and dex=
trose would aid in restoring cardiac reserve when it is lost through
various types of disease. For several years now we have employed these
methods in our practice and have been impressed with the improvement shown
in many of these patientse

Tt occurred to me that this improvement can be brought about in
exhausted hearts from disease, why wouldn't it be possible to improve
cardiac reserve in those who are under great physical strain, and with your
cooperation I would be very much pleased to try it on some of your playerse
I would suggest that we start with a few members so that we will have some
method of control as to the value of our resultse

The following is the method I would like to follow:

One capsule of betulin compound three times daily after meals

A tablespoon full of dexin (destrose sugar made by Burrows &
Wellcome) in glass of lemonade ten minutes before game time
and between halis.

A tablespoon full of glycolixer by Squibb (glycine) three
times dailye

Please let me know your reaction and if you heve any suggestions to adde

Sincerely yours,

(Signed) Don Carlos Peete, Mes
