Dear Chancellor Malott:

_ . This is to confirm ott ihe conversation of this morning regarding
our possible slese cooperation with the University of Kansas Student Health
Service and Hospital. I desire to state that it will be a@ great pleasure for
me to do everything possible to encourage and’ eG8O Os mich.as possible
the friendly relationships between our Department of Physical Education and our
branch of athletie coaching, basketball, and ire Canuteson's department.

Mey I state that 1 had well in mind the acbien of the University
of Kansas Physical Education Corporation, Athletic Board when I visited

Dre Anderson lest Sundays I went you to know that there was no other reason

in my mind than to visit an old old friend who for twenty-two years had taken
care of our Varsity athletes without one penny compensations Dre Mott and

Dre Arthur Anderson had for a limited time received $500.00 with compensation —
for taking care of the football team, Their services did not include profes<
sional care for any other sporte All these years the teams of other sports

have gone to Dr. Anderson's office, received “inoculations of all sorts,
emergency surgical treatment of all Kinds, with the exception of major operations,

without his charging one pennys

For the past three years we have been closely associated with Dre
Don Carlos Peete of the faculty at Rosedale, Kansas. Dre Peste attends all of
our basketball and football games, even though we play away from home,in the
BigeSix Conferencee He had rendered exceptional prefessional skill to Richard
eidll ae & peyohintriat, bo @ Engleman last yeare Due to Dre Peete's exceptional
as @ psychiatrist, he did a wonderful job for both of theme

  

_ two years ago Dr. Peete suggested that on account of the strain of
basketball on the cardiac muscles that we give our boys glycolixir, betalin
and dextrine I give Dre Peete credit more than anyone else for the phenomenal
showing of our basketball teams in the play-off games with Southern California,
Rice, Oklahoma Aggies and Oklahoma. None of our boys are endowed with powerful
physiques, and it.was Dr. Peete's close care and professional guidance that
helped us more than any other one things

Before we started cast Dre Peete made a special trip to Lawrence and
prescribed and furnished us medicine for flu and bad colds, This medicine came ~
to us at the most helpful time and doubtless saved some of our boys from going
to the hospital enroute.
