DEAR PHOGS

LOOKING THROUGH A QUITE ANCIENT COPY OF A SUNDAY KANSAS CITY STAR, | |
NOTED Bossy'S ENGAGEMENT TO M1ss JEAN MCFARLAND, AND WAS ASTOUNDED TO NOTICE
THAT THE KID | USED TO SEE AROUND LAWRENCE ALL THE TIME WHEN HE WAS IN GRADE
SCHOOL AND THEN IN HIGH SCHOOL, NOT ONLY WAS A FINE. BASKETBALL PLAYER BUT A
PH! BETA KAPPA TO BOOT. 3 ,

I*LL JUST WAGER THE OLD pocTor's BUTTONS BURST. ALL OVER THE VALLEY IN
PRIDE AND JOY, AND | SURELY DON'T BEAME YOU A BIT. MY GOSH, WHAT A KID. AND
TO THINK | USED TO LITERALLY PAT HIM ON THE HEAD A COUPLE OF TIMES A WEEK
WHEN | USED TO WALK BY YOUR HOME ON MY WAY UP THE HILL.

BOBBY SURELY WENT TO TOWN, DIDN'T HE? | AM WONDERING IF MISS JEAN IS
A SISTER OF THE GLAMOROUS BETTY, WHO WAS A RELAYS QUEEN ONE YEAR AFTER | WAS
OUT OF SCHOOL? WHO DID BETTY EVER MARRY; | HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT Dick EDEL-
BLUTE BUT NEVER FOR SURE. |

| SURELY HOPE BosBY GETS A CHANCE TO PRACTICE MEDICINE, BECAUSE | THINK
HE PROBABLY WOULD BE A FINE ONE, AND.| IMAGINE LAWRENCE COULD USE HIM.

WHERE IS-THE REST OF THE ALLEN.FAMILY NOW? JANE WENT ON THE HILL JUST
AS | WENT OFF IT AND. | AM WONDERING ‘WHERE SHE 1S AND WHAT SHE 1S DOING AND |
IF SHE 1S MARRIED AND TO WHOM? MIT,. 1 UNDERSTAND, 1S. 1N LAWRENCE, BUT MAJOR
Bit CLEMONS, CorPS OF ENGINEERS, FROM PIi1SBURG, KANSAS, WHO TOLD ME DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT MIT IS DOINGse |! HAD_A TELEPHONE CONVERSATION WITH HIM IN 1840 WHEN
| WAS IN GREAT BEND AND HE tN ELLINWOOD. HOW MANY CHILDREN HAS HE NOW?

| WAS yuST THINKING THAT ONE OF THE DAMNDEST JOBS YOU WOULD EVER HAVE
WOULD BE TO NAME NOW YOUR ALL-TIME K,U. ALL=STAR BKB. TEAM. BOY, WHAT A
TASKS YOU HAVE MADE SO DAMN MANY STARS THEY WOULDN'T FIT ON FOUR TEAMS,
WOULD THEY, DOING EVERYONE JUSTICE? JUST FOR FUN, HOW WOULD YOU OFFHAND
LINE UP TWO ALL=STAR, ALLTIME, S.U. IASKETBALL TEAMS AS OF THE PRESENT TIME?
I'LL KEEP IT UNDER MY HAT, OF COURSE; BUT | WAS JUST CURIOUS. IT WAS HARD
ENOUGH IN 1931 BUT WHAT MUST IT BE NOW? |

How ARE THINGS GOING FOR YOU THIRE NOW, PHOG? | GUESS THE WAR HAS JUST
ABOUT WRECKED YOUR TEAM, HASN'T IT? OR DO YOU HAVE PROSPECTS?

| IMAGINE THE CAMPUS 1S PRETTY NCH THE SAME BUT | IMAGINE THE STUDENTS
ARE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN WHEN | WS THERE. DO THE FRATERNITIES STILL USE
THEIR HOUSES, OR ARE THEY ALL TAKEN GER? | 7

| HOPE THAT YOU AND MRS. ALLEN AD ALL OF THE ALLEN CLAN, INCLUDING
INLAWS AND GRANDCHILDREN, ARE IN FINEHEALTH AND DOING WELL.

MRS. Coogan (NéE HELEN TOWNSLEY,GREAT BEND) HAD A BABY GIRL MARCH 27
IN SKO PAULO, BRASIL, AND OUR BOY WAS3 LAST JANUARY 3]. ALL GOES VERY WELL
WITH US UNTIL NOW--RAPPING ON WOOD. ET ME HEAR FROM YOU--ALL THE BESTsg dq.
