Dear Dr. Allens: Mr. Reid has returned from his little trip north and has told me of the very pleasant visit that he had with you and the boys and how thrilled he is with the prospects this year for you and your team. And, of course, it is needless to tell you how very much interested I was, or how eagerly we search the papers each morning for any little bit of basket ball news from Lawrence. We are looking forward with a great deal of pleasure to seeing the games in Stillwater, Friday and Saturday, and I am sure they will be good ones, and of course, I am praying that our team comes out victor- ious. Mr. Reid and I are coming and Mrs. Engelman, Howard's mother, is coming along with us, so I am wondering if you will be so kind as to get three tickets for us. We may not get there very early, because I will not be able to leave my office before five o'clock, and in the event that we should have any car trouble, it might be that we could not get there in time to see you all before the game. Among the pleasant anticipations of the trip down there, stands out prominently, the pleasure of seeing you again. I am most sincere, Dr. Allen, when I tell you that the contacts I have had with you since you have had Bruce, have been the source of real pleasure and satisfaction to me. You have not only helped Bruce over the tough spots but you have buoyed me along as well. With very kind regards and best wishes, I am ee yours, \ 307 South First Street. ace ders December 2, 1938.
