He has met the requirements in all of his courses except that in Chemistry. This seems to cause him considerable difficulty and he is reported as having a grade of 1.5 which means that unless he does remarkably well during the present week he will be excluded from the examination. Probably a word of encouragement from you would be of real benefit to him just now.

I have had a talk with him and it seems that he did not thoroughly understand our rule regarding the number of unexcused absences which a student on Official Warning is allowed to take. He has taken several over the allowed number this term and, therefore, this action is necessary. He clearly understands that it will be impossible for him to take more than four more without making it necessary for him to leave the School and assures me that he will endeavor to make his attendance record more satisfactory. This Probation will naturally be removed at the end of sixty days if his scholarship record is satisfactory at that time. I was very sorry that you were not at Andover when I was there week before last.

I shall do my best to get hold of the boy during the vacation, and see if I can get at the bottom of the trouble.

I hardly know which one to bank on. According to Mr. Vreeland, your work is in extremely bad shape, and you yourself in a very dangerous position. From your letter I should judge that the situation was decidedly better than formerly. My advice to you is to consult the Registrar at once and make sure just where you stand. I am afraid you will find the situation is distinctly worse than you paint it in your letter to me. I am perfectly willing to accept your explanation of the probation situation. That in itself need not worry us greatly, provided you mean business, for the matter is wholly in your hands. The low standing in your studies, however, is a much more serious affair, and I cannot account for it. Boys who stood distinctly below you in Andover are doing much better work than you at New Haven. The only inference I can draw is that you have not been applying yourself with the serious purpose that should have characterized your effort. For Goodness' sake just stop up short and take a good account of stock and see where you stand. If you were to flunk out at Sheff. it would be a lasting disgrace to you, to the school, and a blow to your family and friends from which they would hardly recover. You certainly cannot afford to trifle with a situation fraught as this is with so many possibilities of evil and good. Faithfully yours, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns Harold Vreeland Tommy Y.C.

My advice to you is to see Mr. Vreeland at once and talk the situation over with him carefully and fully. If your work is as bad as Mr. Vreeland indicates, you ought to know it, and from headquarters. If it is as good as you think it is, Mr. Vreeland ought to know it and give you credit accordingly. In any case you and Mr. Vreeland should come to a clear understanding of the situation at once. I am inclosing check for $25. as requested. Kindly sign and return the receipt. I hope you will be able to get some rest and enjoyment out of the vacation. Your reference to the news you have had of Chang interests me greatly. I fear, however, that his father is making a serious mistake in putting the boy into school again just now, especially if the demands made upon him do not require him to study. In my judgment Chang ought to be put at some good hard work for a year, until he has had time to appreciate the opportunities he has thrown away and has developed a desire to recover lost ground.
