Yerhaps you are keeping & scrap book which probably enna into volumes. Small cance for you to place me as I was in ddieis -eecere the last war--quitting in my Senior year for enlistment, in fact. I did find time as an employed student on The University Daily Kansan to report at the begitning of the seasons both in basketball and football, same luck in baseball. But my quality was so inferior l hardly rated a second glance from you. However: I do remember you were kind to me, or you wouldn't be getting this epistle now.

C. Allen. E. A. Hecker acted as toastmast- er and the former mayor of North Kansas City who has a son of the lo- cal team, was quite at home in the role he assumed. Sharing equal glory and promin- ence were the loyally competent mo- tthers of team players who prepared the feast and saw to it that every- thing was just righttt. :| Mrs. Charles Bennett had charge of ‘| decorations. The school colors of red and white were carried out by ‘|the use. of spirea and japonica, and red candles lighted the tables. Three of the trophies won by the teams this /|year were also used as table decora- tions. Attractive place cards and |. nut cups, carrying out the basketball |: idea widea were made by Norma Jean |. Bennett. The programs added much ,: to the dinner. The teams wish to]. thank Jas. Tibbett who did such a fine job of printing. The Coach, Supt. W. K. Meek was presented a hand- some floor lamp by the two captains, Reese Pollard and Audrey Oberhel- 5 |man_ to show the teams’ appreciation of his work with them this year. : The committee of mothers who]: supervised the dinner were: Mrs. R. - BANQUET _ (Continued from Front Page) C. Wettherell, Mrs. C. W. Whipple, Mrs. Robt. Weir, Mrs. E. A. Hecker and Mrs. Chas. Bennett. Short talks on terms of the game with applications to life situations were made by Reese Pollard, Phyllis - Matlock, Audrey Oberhelman and Da- vid Whipple. Billy Hall and Kenneth Meek play- ed two trumpet duets, with Mrs. Meek as accompanist. Jack Reninger then sang ‘The Riff Song’, accompanied on the piano by Mrs. H. W. Reninger. Jean Marie Cleary gave two piano numbers. Coach ‘Phog’ Allen, of the Univer- sity of Kansas, was the. after dinner speaker and he thrilled his young au- dience with graphic accounts. Not only is he one of the nation’s fore- most coaches and developer of cham- pionship teams, but he is a polished speaker, well grounded in his presen- tation of facts. The program was arranged by Mrs. L. A. Robbins, who was instrumental in securing Dr. Allen as a speaker. His talk was a rare treat and one that the listeners, especially the young people, will not soon forget. He is a nationally known figure in basketball, and his striking personal- ity, vivid speech and clean sportsman- ship have done much for the game. ; Contents of this folder were as fol- OWS: The Band Piano Sole...-::.<8.-, Jean Marie Cleary |’ Trumpet Duet: “Whispering” “My Dreams Are Getting Better All the Time” Billy Hall, Kenneth Meek Vocal Solo: “The Riff Song” / Jack Reninger Line-up The Half The Fans Personal Foul Opponents First String Ball’s in Play Last Quarter The Referee Substitution: Out-of-Bounds The Game Toastmaster, Mr. Hecker’ Dy Ee cacckathccen tet Reese Pollard Referee’s Whistle........

His failure means that for a larger income, for fortify- ing his investment, he is willing to give up voluntarily the same thing that France, Greece, Norway, and others lost and must now spill blood to regain—freedom of expression, honesty of expression. ‘I could have said this whole thing in a few words.

If you should desire an autographed copy I would be glad to send it to you postpaid upon receipt of your check or money order for $4.10. In reply to your second question, regarding the award of ® letter, the usual procedure is for the coach to recommend a player to the athletic hoard, and the athletic board votes him @ letter.
