The headmaster, or principal as we would say, was Hugo Wyttenbach, whom was a friend of Karl’s father.

At the age of 18, Karl was released from military duty. He was labeled with a condition known as weak chest. During Karl’s stay at Bonn, he joined the Poets' Club. The poets club was a group containing politicals that were being observed by the police. Karl also joined the club, Trier Tavern Club drinking society. He was serving as the club’s co-president at a short duration of time. During this period of time Karl was involved in a lot,
