Dr Forrest C. Allen,
801 Louisiana Street,
Lawrence, Kansas.

Dear Dr. Allen,

We have a boy from our school, Bill Wade, who is a Freshman
at K.U. this fall, who should by all means be out for
basketball. He is working his way partly thru school, and
just now is tied down by a job which takes him thru the
Supper period and has prevented him from reporting for
practice. I am taking the liberty of sending him over
to see you personally, in hope that you can iron out or
have someone help him iron out his daily schedule so that
he can make his appearance daily for Freshman Practice.

Bill was an excellent boy in High School and should, with
the good coaching he shoufld receive at K.U., continue a
splendid athletic career. Bill went his Freshman year at

Colby High School where he lettered in basketball and

track. His last three years here were years in which he
topped the surrounding territory in general basketball
ability. Last year he was our captain and made around
200 points during the season. Our team played in four
tournaments including the State Class B tournament at
Salina. He will play his heart out for anyone he likes
and he is fairly aching to get a crack at Freshman
basketball at K.U.

I shall ask Bob Raugh, Coach at Colby, to drop you a
line relative to Bill, and I am sure that you will be

doing the boy a good deed, if you will help him arrange
his schedule so that he can compete.

Sheldon Wingerd, Supt.

Rexford, Kansas.
