Dear "Phos":

Thanks so much for your very kind letter of October 10
enclosing an edition of the "Rebounds" compiled and circulated by
you among K. U. eratbowies in the armed forces of this country. I think
that you are performing a great and worthwhile service and enjoyed
reading it although I didn't know any of the men discussed by you
in this edition. This " Teep" T. P. Hunter certainly must have
been a great guy, and I know that his death was untimely and a great
shock to his many fréends everywhere.

"Phog" to my best recollection the K. U. graduates
attending the luncheon given in your honor and the rest of the
coaching staff were: Walter Kimmel, Fred Haddock, C. I. Johnsm,
Hunter L. esis Zeke Burton, Forrest De bickecei, 2. H. Hamilton,
Malcolm L. McCune, Henry Duncan, M. M. Lawellin, Martin D. Wallingford.
Dr. E. F. Ammons, James A. Brouk, Vic Hutt cok acess. i know that
all of these gentlemen would like receiving an issue of the
Rebounds you sent me and all future issues 4 would be kind enough
tosend them. I really think that you are doing a great job at
Lawrence both for the city and the University, and I am amazed at
the energy you seem to possess and theenthusiasm you have for your
various duties.

I am hopeful that Henry Shenk and his assistants can
get the football team in the right frame of mind and condition to

beat Nebraska Saturday. If I can get anyone to make the trip with me
