gentleman but he has a lot of fire, and although we would hate to Lane
him as assistant to Shenk this fall, I believe every young man is en-
titled to his chance. eee te ree nae eae :
want a big-time coach here at Kansas, and now he believes he should get
out while the getting is good, while he is assistant coach at the Unive
sity rather than coaching in some high school. Schaake has the qualifi-
sations for coaching a big-time football team. ‘You remember he played
one year with Potey Clark's Detroit Lions after he finished his competition
here. He did this to get enough money to pay his college debt. He did
not care for the professional game although he was one of the outstanding
players in the professional league.

I will appreoiate it if you will keep this confidential in Denver,
yet use your uncanny resources in getting the lay of the land. Wilmer has
asked me to write you feeling that I lmew you better than he, but he wants
you to know that he will appreciate everything you oan do in his behalf.

I trust that you and your family are well. J think of you often and
would certainly enjoy a nice long chat with you on some 18-hold golf course,
if such things as that exist. We cut ours here in Lawrence from 18 to 9
to keep going and we have done it pretty well.

With all good wishes, I an

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
PCA: All Ue Varsity Basketball Coach.
