Dear Doc:

I have not yet seen a copy of your new basketball book but
I understand it is a dandy. We would like to give you a
write-up regarding the book in the Kansas Athlete which
goes to all the coaches and officials in the state and if
you can furnish me with some appropriate material I shall
be glad to prepare a story.

Of course, I would like to look over the book and if you can
furnish me with a copy for a few days I shall appreciate it.
t am not asking for a complimentary copy and do not wish you
to feel obligated to furnish one. Perhaps there are some
copies here in town which I can see.

One of our high school principals who seemed to like the
book very much suggested that we should encourage our coaches
to purchase it and if you think a story of this kind will be
desirable I shall be glad to see that it is printed in the
next issue of the Athlete.

Very cordially yours,

EMS:
