Dear Phog:

Thanks for your letter of January 14. I was very much
surprised to hear what you had to say about Frosty Cox. You
would think that he would appreciate all you have done for him.
However, apparently he is one of the persons who have no
gratitude for help which has been given him. I have know of
other people who have had the same attitude.

I appreciate your enclosing the clippings from the
Journal World. I think it was unfortunate that the Athletic
Board did not determine the matter of the coaches before the
Board of Regents met. I do not know that anyone is especially
to blame for the board's not having done so. As you know, we
met in December to do this, but the meeting was called on a day
Gwinn Henry had to leave for Chicago, and why it was called at
such time I have no idea, nor do I know why the matter was not
taken up at the next meeting because I was unable to attend it. .
Karl Klooz advised me there #ould be a meeting Friday afternoon
at two o'clock. At this time I am not certain whether T can
attend. Anyhow, as I told Karl over the ‘phone, it seems to me
that there is not much use in attending as the Board of Regents
has made a decision for us.

Sincerely yours,

TMV:SS
