Dear Dr. Allen:

T have talked with Mr. Henry and Mr. Klooz in regard to a
"K" award in wrestling for myself.

Just a brief review regarding my athletic career at K. U..
I won my Freshman numeral in 1931-32 in wrestling. I went out
for Football my Freshman, Sophomore and Junior years and also
wrestling all four years. I have had varsity competition with
Missouri and Kansas State. I believe it was four meets in all.

I did not receive a letter while attending the University.
I am wondering at this time if you would recommend a "K"for me?
I am asking this recommendation in view of the fact that while
at K. U. I was very much interested in athletics and went out
for them all four years. I am also very much interested in
coaching basketball and football here at Garden City and a "K"
would add a tremendous amount of prestige. I also believe it
would aid me in having more influence with my boys.

Due to the fact that I am in the coaching field and expect
to continue in that field, you can see what a "K" award would
mean to me.

I hope you can see fit to make this recommendation.
Thank you for your time and consideration of this matter.

cerely yours,

ey ee
