Dear. Fogg:

-. I want to thank you for your fine
letter of February 5th and the basketball

., schedule. which both dad and I have appreciated.

The press out here is pretty poor and quite
often doesn't print the results:of gamese We
saw the Southwest Conference finals, but never
did see an announcement whem the Jayhawkers:
captured the Big» Sixe. The enclosed article
is probably old stuff to you, but: I thought
that possibly Lt might be of some values This
was in tonight’ 3 San Francisco Chromiclee

Also I? would like to refer you to am
excellent basketball article that I picked up
in one of the industrial publications which is
on my company's exchange list. This was an
article by Hubert M. Dustim in the Gould Battery
News published by the Gould Storage Battery
Corpe, Depew, Ne Ye,VoloVIII, Noe De $There is
a@ picture of Naismith in the article and a faire
ly good article on basketball as a whole - its
_ past and future portrayed quite well.

Since I commute sbout seventeen miles
to work each day, I almost always pick up some
of the hitchhiking: sailors to or from Camp Shoe-
makere Last week I got one who was at the Iowa
clinic and knew youe I don't remember his name
but he told what a great guy you were and how
swell your clinic wase Speaking of clinies i
see you're in charge of ‘the ten foot basket’
show at the coming Kansas City, NCAA meete Hope
you trounce the aggies - but (as you know) they're
plenty hote
