My dear Dr. Allens

May I offer my sincere congratulations on the fine showing of
your team? There was such a big crowd around you Saturday
night that I didn't try to get through. In playing ability,
I presume the University of Kansas has often had teams as

‘good or superior to your present groupe I had, however, never

seen a team represent the university that displayed more of
that will to win than the team of this year. They were beaten
a half dozen times in that last ten minutes and simply wouldn't
quit. I think that's a tribute to the university and perhaps

most. of all to your coaching. May I thank you very kindly for
“the tickets you sent us. I am glad our band could participate

in the festivities of the evening and I hope they performed
to your satisfaction. I hope to see you soon when we can
sit down and talk over this fine achievement of your team.

Very cordially,

/ Ah
