Dear Sirs:

We here at Monett High School are giving an all
sports banquet April Sth beginning at 6:30.

I would like to extend to you an invitation to
come and be our guest speaker. We are anxious

to obtain some outstanding basketball coach to

be our speaker and feel that you would make an

excellent one.

I also feel that this would be an opportunity for
you to have a talk with a boy whom I have coached
for the past three years. He is a boy who was an
all-state center last year and again repeated th’'s
year as an all-state man. He is 6ft Sin tall shoots
with either hand, is abo e the average as an student,
has scored over 1200 points in 4 years of high school
competition, takes coaching very well, and is a boy
whom trains like a real a thlete should. He has had
offers from a great many leading universities but I
feel that he should go someplace where he can get
excellent coaching and still play on good teams.

Would you please let me know by return mail whether
you will or will not be able to come to Monett on the

a bove date and be a speaker at our banquet.

Thanking you for giving this letter your consideration.

Sincerely, .

Pod Pacgtt

Athletic Director
