Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Phog: SIDNEY M. COOKE, CASHIER GEO. W. FARRAR, Asst. CASHIER WM. J. KRAXNER, Asst. CASHIER -I met Wesley Loomis this noon and he told me to write to you and ask you to send to me $5 he contributed some months ago toward a memorial for Dr. Naismith. He said that as nothing was being done now toward such a memorial, he would rather have the $5 go toward a fund we are raising for Alumni Place. I am sort of looking after the Kansas City end of this, and the $5 will be very welcome, indeed, oo a le P.S. Wesley said that if a movement were launched in earnest for the memorial to Dr. Naismith, he would send you another $5.
