April 8, 1946 Mr. Russell Denbery 110 Bast Wallace Avenue ¢ New Castle, Pennsylvania Dear Mr. Denbery: Your letter concerning the persuasion of athletes to attend large institutions was very interesting to me. I appreciate very much your comments concerning my career and my attempts at cleaning up basketball. : Under the present seteup there is very little that can be done to alleviate the situation which you deseribed. ‘However, big men in the field of athletics are wopking daily on the situation. I hope that soon we shall have a set-up that shall better protect small institutions from so-called "robbery" of their material. . I am sorry that this letter was so long delayed. With sincere regards, I am Cordially yours, Director of Physical Education, PCAs! Varsity Basketball Coach,
