Dr. Forrest C. Allen
Director of Physical Education
University of Kansas

Dear Dr. Allen:

To say that I enjoyed your letter of December 28th and
enclosures would be expressing it mildly. The next best
thing to a varsity letter from K.U. is to know that some of
the athletic department officials hold one in high regard,
and your letter to Schlademann certainly removed any doubt
in that respect.

I fail to find adequate words to express my feelings
concerning your efforts in my behalf, and will only say
"you're tops" in my respect and admiration.

Unless Karl relents in his attitude in the matter, I
suppose we are through. However, I recall that John Bunn,
as freshman coach, awarded me a numeral in freshman foot-
ball, and I have renewed my friendship with him several
times at Stanford University when I was visiting there,

Kelly, who was trainer at the time, has always been a
good friend of mine, and I used to visit with him in Austin, |
Texas, when I was down there.

Knowing Potsy's attitude to be as you express it in
your letter to Schlademann, I suppose we would be wasting
our time to contact him. However, he was always very
friendly although I have not seen him since he left K.U.

Now, I have a very pleasant favor to ask of you. We
have a ¥. M. C. A. All-Sports Dinner, or banquet, each
spring in Cedar Rapids, honoring all of the community's
