lawrence, Kas,

Dear Phog:

Sorry I didn't get to at least say hello dow at Stillwater
the other night when your club played Oklahoma Aggies. But mking
connections te tween that town and any other is extremely tough so
I had to leave immediately after the contest,

Frankly, that was a tough one to lose. I thot yours was
the better club ,altho the Aggies did show plehty in those first
five minutes. However, my book showed fourteen set shots for
Kansas in the first half and it has always been my observation
that good basketbali clubs don't pemmit such things to take
place. ,

Both clubs looked a little tight,altho the maneuvering of
K.U. was much better than tmt of the Aggies. It was the first time
I had seen Bob play and I know now that all the things they have
been saying about him weren't falsehoods, That kid has it. In his
quarterback role he's something of a combination of Chuck Hyatt and
old Harold Hewitt, Am happy to hear he has no desire templay
independent or A.A.U, bal. I've seen that end of the sport mke
tramps out of too many worthwhile youngsters.

Would you be so kind as to have the public relations bunch
ut aside a couple of press tickets for me to the Missouri game ?
i realize this is asking a lot in view of the fact that you're
probably already sold out,but I'd like one seat at the press table
and one other reserved, é 3

Kindly drop me a line on the matter.

Wishing you lo

is)of success in your @ight for the Big Six
crown, remin,
