Dre FeCe Allen, Varsity Basketball Coach, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas, Dear Doc: I have been meaning to write you for some time, but am Shamefully late in doing so. At the time school was out you were very busy and hard to contact, so I didn't see you personally as I had hoped to. I want to thank you for all the assisstance you gave me while I was in school. As I look back now I realize it would have been almost impossible for me to finish had it not been for the work you gave mé« it was a great privelege to play basketball for you, and I cherish many memories and experiences which I shall never forget. I was having the best time of my life and didn't realize it. Now, I only wish it was ahead instead of behind me. I see by the papers that you have invented a new game, and that it is similar to basketball. However, according to Florell it is much faster and more exciting. It must be a game of fast action with ee of becoming a new national game. maestros a letter from Ralph Miller this morning and I am glad he is getting along so nicely. You should, barring unforeseen complications, have a successful basketball season. At least, more so than last year. I hope to see you at some of the games. Please give my regards to Mrs. Allen and to Bobe Sincerely yours, Seas eo eee ae Se Rete Se GTS DEN | eB Ree ey SUN TIE, UR pies aaa One (RS i eGR: eas ete: Rae ICS ETT ONT ee seats ke yy cree Cea eae te EIDE Pg See ie Sg ZUR ES, PRR Se AE TSS SN RSE ae ei a i oe ane aa Rare Te SAS UES hg aye 5 Ad ante lay etree asec MNUr At paaatin oy th raemg ane Aas eopeae ca MN: Sese uly
