Dear Doctor: ;

 

Will have to take off the old hat to you. Beating the
1940 teams of Mo.; Okla.; Iba; and then So, Cal., all within
a few weeks,is quite an achievement in my book! Congratulations,
and more power to you against Indianasg. 7

You probably don't remember, but about twenty years ago
I rode part way over to Columbia "with you on the M.K.&T. when
you were going over to referee a game, at which time, I dis-
cussed with you a foot-ball knee injury I had suffered several
years previously. You are the only one that ever convinced me
you knew what my trouble was, and had you still been in War-
rensburg at that time, I would have come to you for treatment,

The knee has always been a little weak but given me very —
little trouble in recent years, However, last August I twisted
it playing golf and since that time it hasn't Showad much im- —
provement. Doesn't seem to me it has again lined up right inside,
Have decided I want you to make an examination of this knee som
time soon, Have a hunch you can either correct or greatly impr
it, at least, I want your advice on it. If you will set a defi
time and place you can see me I'll drive out to Lawrence anytime
during the next two weeks, and will wire you a day ahead so you']
know I am coming, I feel sure you will have too many other things
on your mind but in case you are going to K, C. as early as Fri
or Sat. morning and think you would have time to look this knee
mine over for a few minutes, just wire me collect and tell me
where and when, Would like to run up for the game anyway, which -
the only reason I mention this, but don't consider it if same wov
inconvemience you any. Shall appreciate hearing from you and hope
to see you either this week or next, whenever it best suits you.
