My Dear Mr. Allen,
I want you to know that I appreciate the letter that I received
from you today. I wish now that I could have known before the things
IT realize today. But as it is impossible to recall our high school days
I want you to know that I am taking your advise as I enter College,

I believe I could have made good in your school and in the past
few months had hoped it would be possible for me to enter there, But |
as time drew near and I failed to hear from you I made arrangements to enter
O. U. I just completed all arrangements yesterday.

Coach Harold Schmidt is a splendid fellow and has benn grand to me.
I want to show him that I can make good in athletics and also in academic
studies.

Since I graduated last spring I have been in the emppoy of Phillips
Petroleum Company and the contact with such men as Schmidt, Boots Adams,
Paul Endicott and hundreds of other successful men does something to you.
It makes you want to do your dead level best at all times. I realize at
my age of seventeen that all the future is mine to make the best of and
the letter from my Dutch uncle, Po@ Allen will only help to make that
future more sucessful.

Someday I hope to meet you and thank you personally for your kind-

nesse

VOFRPTICE OF THE DIRECTOR

Dr. Forrest C. Allen
Basketball Coach
University of Kansas
Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Mr. Allen:

I received your letter of September 20th in
regard to a proposed Big Six tournament at the Univer-
sity of Nebraska during the Christmas holidays, and
also your letter of the 23rd in regard to the Bask-0-Lite
goal. In regard to the goal, I don't believe Nebraska
is interested as far as this season is concerned. The
guestion of the tournament is worth considering and we
will keep it in the back of our minds to discuss some-
time in the future.

At the present writing the pressing details
of a football season are keeping me very busy and I have
not had an opportunity to do much thinking about basket-
ball. We are trying to leave no stone unturned to make
a good showing against Minnesota this Saturday in Lincoln.
I saw them play last Saturday and they certainly have
the finest squad and the most brilliant array of backfield
talent I have ever seen.

If you are in Lincoln Saturday, I would enjoy
seeing you, at least for a few moments of greeting.

incerely yours,
