Delong 1371 King George Blvd. Ann Arbor, MI 48104-2657 Dear Trevor A news item in the Detroit Free Press indicates that you will be graduated from the university at midyear. With honors, no less! Congratulations! When you were a student at Hillside High, I worried that you might never put your potential to work in a serious way. But evidently you have been able to continue your athletic goals and at the same time pursue an academic major successfully. I am glad you have done credit to yourself and to us at Hillside. We’re proud of you. What are your plans after graduation? What ever they may be, your former teachers at Hillside wish you well. I would enjoy a note from you that I can share with others on the Hillside faculty. Cordially yours Mrs. Barbara Snodgrass
