September 27, 1944.

Mr. Bruce Drake,
Basketball Coach,
University of Oklahoma,
Norman, Oklahoma.

Dear Bruce:

Once I heard of a Dutohman. He was not named
Hoff, but his name was Kloppf. He was to serve on the jury.
He got so excited and mixed up, and he said, "Good-by, wifey,
good=by. I got to leave my home in the country and go to
Kansas City and serve on the jury. I know I am going to run
over the car and kill somebody."

It is queer, when these Dutch have things explained
to them sometimes fairly clearly that they cannot get it. I
went in to talk to Ralph Baker, and Hoff dropped in. I was
going down to see Mr. Hoff later and explain to him, but I
wanted the dates held.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
PCA: AH , Varsity Basketball Coach.
