Dear Sir:

I am principal and coach of Marthaville High
School in Louisiana. This year I am coach a group
of basketwall boys who should win the State meet
if I can give the proper information.

Would it be possible for you to take a few
seconds of your time and draw out me a system whereby
a blocking offense could be used to go against a
man-to-man defense. High school boys find it difftcult
to set up different plays, so I thought you might
give me some good points or a system that would be a
continous one in which plays will naturally come.

I will appreciate it very much and consider it

an honor if you will give me what you think high school

boys should use in going through a man-to-man defense

I have read and own your book,but I thought you
might give me something for my case. Thanks a million

for your time and trouble.
