Herewith find enclosed a check for five hundred fifty dollars ($550.00) for your further college expense. Please sign and return the accompanying receipt. I realize that you have had extra expenses this year, though I am at a loss to understand how a college coach can justify his encouragement of extra if not perhaps unnecessary expenses for the members of his squad in connection with their football trips. There is bound to be added expenses for a boy on the football squad, I suppose, but certainly no coach has a right to add unnecessarily to this burden, which is a real burden to some boys. However, that water is already over the dam, so I won't discuss the matter further. On the whole, I think you have done pretty well with your expenses, though I note that they have been running somewhat higher than those incurred by Charlie at Amherst. Indeed, at your father's request, I have just sent Charlie in London a draft covering his balance, which amounts to a bit over thirty-five hundred dollars. Yours is very much less than that, as you will note from the statement recently sent you. So do be careful, for I hate to have to report to your father any very noticeable differences in the amounts that you boys are spending, and it naturally seems as if living at Middlebury ought to be if anything a bit cheaper than Amherst. I don't know what your father plans for your further study in this country, but I shall be only too glad to talk the matter over with you at your convenience and discuss with you all the pros and cons. Frankly, I don't see why you could not secure the German and French, if that is what your father wishes, about as well at Middlebury as at Harvard. This should certainly be true in the case of the French, which Middlebury has always emphasized. Anyway, let's talk the whole thing over when you can get down here. Let me know in advance, though, when you plan to make the trip so that we may be sure to hit a date when I am to be here. With all best wishes, believe me Faithfully yours, Dr. Alfred E.

Whether the New York plan is altogether wise or not, I am not in a position to say. That must be determined by yourself and the way you take hold of the job there and resist or give in to the distracting influences that are invariably found in a big city. The final judgment, therefore, will have to be left until fall. As to the expense involved, it seems to me to be pretty heavy. If your money is spent wisely, however, I am not averse to allowing you to meet all legitimate charges. On the other hand. I think it better to send the total sum in installments rather than in one lump. This will give you a chance to figure a little more closely what you are spending and how you are coming out. I am sending herewith, therefore, a check for three hundred dollars to help you close up the year at Middlebury and to take care of the opening expenses of the summer. With all best wishes, believe me Very sincerely yours. AES/C Enol, (check) Dr. Alfred E.

Evidently it does not pay to let your bank account drop below fifty dollars for that involves a needless expense, so I am sending the larger amount. I have Just written Charlie and would make the same suggestion to you also that Ifhyro have any problems to discuss with me and are going to be in this general vicinity during your Easter holidays, come out here some day and let's have a good old-fashioned talk.

M. House Middlebury, Vt. Dear Tom: I have just received your letter of March 20 with the accompanying copy of your sister-in-law’s letter to me. Of course, I share to the full your anxiety about your father, but I regret to say that I am not able to add anything to what your sister-in-law has written, for as you will note, her communication to you is only the copy of her letter to me from which I learned for the first time of your father’s serious illness. I did gather from the latter, however, that it was the feeling that the real crisis had been passed in your father’s condition, and that he war regaining his health end strength, though vary slowly. Indeed, the letter of which you have a copy, was written on February 17. In the same mail came another brief note from your sister-in- law dated February 20, three days later, in which she added, "Regarding my father-in-law’s health. He has pulled throws and is now out of danger. He is still so weak and takes a little soft diet, We all hope he will soon be recovered to his usual health". In view of this last note, I think you can rightly cheer up a lot, for certainly it is much more encouraging than the first report, and I am sure that if things had grown worse you would have heard something direct from home. Trusting that the next news you get may be even better than this last, and wishing you every success for the rest of your college year, believe me always Sincerely yours Dr. Alfred E.

We have had Chinese here at Phillips Academy who have made the baseball team, as you know, and quite a number have proved excellent soccer players. I think, though, that you will have the proud distinction of being the first one to make a varsity football team, if you are successful in attaining that goal. Good luck to you! By all means, we must arrange to have a good talk together some time about your future work. When the rush is over, just keep me posted about your future work.
