Forrest C. Allen, In re: Dave Shirk
Director of Physical Education

University of Kansas

Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Director Allen:

I g@m sorry to have been a little slow in looking up
Dave Shirk and his x-rayse 3

I saw him on March 1lst., 1938 and he stated then that in
July, 1937 he did a back flip dive and injyred his foot which became
swollen and uncomfortable and had had a little trouble sincee

On examination at that time I was not able to account for
the pain he complained of in the region of the right great toe joint
as the physical examination was negative ws were the x-ray findings.

I furn&sked him with an anterior arch pad, told him that
I did not see any contraindication to his playing football and if he
had any further trouble to let me know and I have not heard from him
since, so hope he is all righte

Yours sincerely,

A
