Dear Colomel,

T have advanced you fron a sergeant to a colonel.

Thank you for the golf tees. If you keep on honoring me
I will advance you to Commander in Chief.

Regarding our taking ancther train other than the
Rock Island to Wichita, may I say that at the lact minute
_I discovered that the last day of enroliment for the second
semester was February 4 and it wes necessary that we get
back to Lawrence as soon as possible so the bors could enroli
before too many classes were closede I was under the impression
that the Rock Island left Wichita in the morning, but when I
fod out it left sonetime soon after noon, we mde arrancenents
to teke another train thet would get us out of Wichita SOONCT's

i believe this explaine why it was necessary for

uz to change our plans at the lest minutes You can rest
assured that I will renember you in my willd

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical #ducation and Recreation
Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach
