Subject: Status of Elmer Riddle
Dear Sir,
Elmer Riddle has problems at AA Hagerstown Hilltoppers!
He has an ERA of 6.55, so you might
want to demote him soon, before his attitude suffers!

Regards,
Scouting Director



Date: Monday, 5/1/1942
Subject: Status of Irv Bartling
Dear Sir,
Irv Bartling has an AVG of .222 at AA Hagerstown Hilltoppers!
That's definitely no good sign. I suggest demoting him soon.

Regards,
Scouting Director



Date: Monday, 5/1/1942
Subject: Status of Steve Peek
Dear Sir,
Steve Peek seems overmatched at AA Hagerstown Hilltoppers!
He has an ERA of 5.12 over there, so I think
you should demote him.

Manager,
I am not very happy about my playing time recently.
I think I deserve a starting spot!

Subject: Progress of Chuck Stevens
Dear Sir,
Chuck Stevens has nothing more to prove at AA Hagerstown Hilltoppers!
He has an AVG of .278 over there, so I think
a promotion wouldn't hurt him at all.

Scouting Director



Date: Thursday, 5/18/1942
Subject: Status of Al Glossop
Dear Sir,
Al Glossop has an AVG of .245 at AA Hagerstown Hilltoppers!
