Mr. John Doe,
Osborn County,
Kansase

Dear Mre Doe:

I am sorry too delay answering your letter of sometime ago but
have been out of town for over ® month.

Your son has an enviable record in athletics and we at
are extremely interested in having him attend our school.

We have a few Alumni Scholarships that we give out to basketball
prospectse These Scholarships are submitted too the school by

& group of wealthy alumni. They include a boys room, board,
lautidry, tuition, fees, bookse All it costs the boy to attend

is for his spending money and clothes. If your son accepts one
of these scholarships he does not have too wait tables or do any
other work around the campuse This alumni board feels that if
the boy does a good job in this studies and basketball that is
about @ll he has time fore The alumni board wants the athlete
too fulfill three requirements in order too maintain this scholare
ship: = 1) Satisfy the Dean of Discipline, 2) Satisfy the Dean of
Studies, 3) Do a good job athletically. By the later I mean that
he has to be of some help to the squad.

I wish that you would heve your son fill out the enclosed applica~
tion blank and also send in a copy of his officiel transcript of
record, which has to go from one registrar to anothere I would
like to have the above information sent as soon as possible as

the time is drawing nearer to registration, which takes place on
the 16th of August to the 20th of Auguste

Thanking you kindly for your cooperation and with best wishes to
you and your son, I am

Sincerely,

(Signed) Richard Roe.
