Mr. Forrest C. Allen:
Lawrence, Kansas

Tae Sirs

: It was no. trouble finding Gene Anderson. He is working
temporarily at the bakery, He says that he intends to come —
to K, U., however, I don't feel certain about these boys.
until they are on the campus and in the class room. Gene is

a big boy and he won "+ be eighteen until October or November.
He handles himself well and moves around fast for a big boy,
With the improvement that should come with experience, I
‘think he has unusual possibilities,

I just checked with 0, wen ‘Hodgson, high school prinéipal,

his grades were C and his 2.9. as 0,.K, “He has not bed bis:
transcript sent to any school, Jack Lippldt, a member of
last years (1945) team has sent his transcript to Kansas State.

“We had an outstanding sophomore on dass yes first team,
Dale Eugel, He is a "comer®, I am hot sure that he was even
Sixteen at tournament time last spring. “e is rugged, 6 feet |
2 inchés, weighs at least 170, and was good for 10 to 12 points
in several games, He hada bad knee at Emporia and you "worked"
on him, Mr. Engel, Dale's father told me he understood Colorado
U. had been after Gene Anderson, Of course, that would not be

news as we have come to expect Mr. Cox to point out the "ad-
vantages" of Colorado U. to our good high school athletes,

ae Thank you very. jueh: foecthe: time you er with us. =
wishes for the coming season. Here's hoping that some good.
experienced former K,U. servicemen-lettermen will be calling
on you in the near future,

Very truly YOR,

Dies HEATH
