Life

After graduating from secondary school in Landshut in 1925, Friedrich Hutter trained as a sports teacher at the state institute and at the University of Munich . He passed the first state examination in 1928 and the second a year later.

From 1929 to 1934 Hutter worked in Freising at the Karl-Meichelbeck-Realschule there as well as at the Theological University and the University of Agriculture and Brewery in Weihenstephan . In 1934, Hutter was transferred to Cham, where he worked with a war-related interruption until his retirement in 1969 and then for another three years with a few hours per week at the Fraunhofer Gymnasium .

In 1936 he married his wife Mathilde, a son Fritz was born to him in 1938 and a daughter Irmtraud in 1940. From 1939 to 1941 Hutter served in the German Wehrmacht and was dismissed in 1941 because of a serious illness. In 1941 he was back at school. In 1943 he was called up again.

On the way from the front ( Bulgaria ), most of which he covered on foot, Hutter was captured by the Americans in Patersdorf near Viechtach and handed over to the Russians. He was taken prisoner until he returned to Cham on January 9, 1948. Hutter reported back to his school and began to work as a sports teacher and sports pioneer.

The school ski courses that he had already introduced quickly became known for their good organization and targeted training. In addition, Hutter earned great merit through the several years of training courses for teachers at elementary schools . In addition, he made important contributions to sports clubs for several decades. The "Hutter Fax" was given due recognition by being awarded the Federal Cross of Merit on Ribbon in 1970 and by being made an honorary citizen of the city of Cham in 1985.
