Mr. Ying Chiun Lo
209 College Avenue,
Ithaca, N.Y.

My Dear Lo:

Your letter with enclosures reached me just after my return to Andover from my vacation. I have looked up the correspondence and your office record and am somewhat at a loss to know just how to handle your case. I am anxious to do you full justice and to aid you to every way in gaining admission to Cornell, at the same time, our rules prohibit me from granting admission certificates to you since you are not a graduate. I have, however, signed your recommendation of moral character and am returning it with the Technology report herewith. I am also enclosing you a copy of your complete record with us, which you may use in any way you deem fit. If any obstacles still remain in the way of your admission to Cornell, please ask the Registrar to state to me just what is desired and if I can in any way make exceptions in view of the fact that you are a foreigner, I shall be only too glad to do so.

Trusting that you are having the best kind of a summer and with every good wish for the year ahead, believe me,

Sincerely yours,

Principal
