148 Prague, 15 January 1940. Herfn v. Burgsdor f. 16. 1. 1940 I notice that at present in the Protectorate there are again major sporting events on the order of the day, which are contested by German and Czech teams. I can say that my decision as to whether or not the events should be held in individual cases will not be taken at all. I must ask you to cancel this abuse. I have to say to the events themselves that the superiority of the German Nannnschaften must urgently be demanded. It has been reported to me that the course of the last ice hockey games in Prague has been downright pathetic in this regard. It is to be expected that the Czech public, which sees the Czech Hannschaften victorious, will easily make the event in question a political-demonstrative rally without even the slightest effort to intervene against this rally during the event. I would be grateful if you would pay your attention to the matter in question and henceforth take part in it in good time under all circumstances.
