Dear Lawrence;

Permit me to congratulate you, your coach and
your school upon winning the Class A State Championship
in basketball. Of course I was delighted to see you do
it. I have been especially fond of your coach because
not only is he a fine coach but ho is a grand centleman,
and I kmow thet you must heve’ gotten much delight from
being cosched by s man like Coach Shirk.

Doubtless you will want to continue in college
if possible to fit yourself for this scientific war, if
you get into it. If I were a young man I would get as

e mush schooling as possible under the conditions. of
course, this war will end some day and the fellow who is
best fitted to serve will get the call. :

With congratulations and best wishes, I an

Sincerely yours,
