Dear Governor Sehoeppel:

On behalf of the K Club, which comprises the lettermen
of all competitive sports at the University of Kansas, we desire
to thank you and your lovely wife most heartily for your wselfish
spirit in coming to Lawrence for the K Club dance. And fer the
crowning event, - the erowning of the queen. You must have crowned
queens before - you did it so artfully! |

Your and Mrs. Schoeppel's presence made the party the
‘grand success that it was. Each and every one of us who are var-~
sity men are mighty happy to have another great Kansas athlete as
Governor of the State. To have a Governor who has sympathy for |
varsity competition and who has been a participant, such as you
have been, delights us no end.

We know the sacrifice that you made to make this trip
and we trust that the trip was not too fatiguing on Mrs. Schoeppel
who, we understand, is convalescing from a severe illness. . Won't

you kindly convey our kindest regards and best wishes to her, and
sovept ow sincere thanks?

Appreciatively yours,

ae

Director of Physical Bducation,
FCA :AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
