College Entrance Examination Board&#13;
COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES &#13;
&#13;
July 18, 1907&#13;
Mr. Yik Sing Wong,&#13;
Ithaca, N. Y.&#13;
&#13;
Dear Sir:-&#13;
&#13;
Replying to your letter I beg to say that it is impossible for the College Entrance Examination Board, to give you a rating for your examination in physics owing to the fact that you failed to submit a laboratory note-book in connection with the examination. Under the rules of the Board the submission of a laboratory note-book is an essential part of every examination in a natural science.&#13;
&#13;
The only course that we can suggest is that we should forward your answer-book with an explanation of your case to the authorities of the College that you expect to enter.&#13;
&#13;
Faithfully yours,&#13;
&#13;
[signed Thomas S. Fiske]&#13;
&#13;
Secretary&#13;
