Mr. C, Ae Clingempeel,
Central College,
Fayette, Missouri.

Dear Cling:

A thousand times I have started to write you but
each and every time I have led. ‘This procrastination is
terrible and shameful. But I am getting around to it now -—
just merely to say hello to you and to wish you in writing
the thing that I have wished you in thought a thousand times.
‘The best of luck in everything, always.

Cling, I met a friend of mine down in Oklahoma
City who said that Arthuw B. Adams, who is now dean of the
school of business administration at the University of Okla-
homa, was a former coach at Central College. I cannot place
Adams «- when he was there and what sport he coached, but know-
ing that you have been at Central from the beginning as an
athlete and a coach, sans the time that you were coaching at
S.M.U. and Kemper, I felt that you could give me more definite
information than anyone else. I em very interested in knowing
the time that Mr. Adams coached down there end the time he was
on the faculty. I will write you further as soon as i get
your information because it is rather important. I will apprec-
iate hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

i have written Dean Puckett and I lmow between
the two of you, you will be able to give me all the information

necessary «

With all good wishes to you and your lovely family,
I em ‘

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education end Recreation,
FCA: AH Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach.
