Dear Alfred:
Thank you for your good note received this morning.
The question of your admission to Andover next year will depend almost wholly on the extent to which MU are able to carry your English and Arithmetic by that time. Your English is still pretty much below par, and I am afraid not good enough yet to enable you io do our work here successfully. Further, you will need a strong foundation in Arithmetic in order to handle the Algebra of our first year. I shall talk your case over with my brother at the earliest opportunity and see what he thinks your chances are.
With all good wishes, believe me
Faithfully yours,
Mr. Alfred P.K.Tsai
