Dear Phog: We just today received an invoice for a pair of sample basketball hose from Sand Knitting Mills that were shipped direct to you and we are en~ closing a bill for this pair of hose. Since this deal was made entirely through Harry Mudd and we do not know whether youwant to re- turn the hose direct to them or not, we thought it best to just send you this invoice and you can make your own decision in the matter.. From your telephone conversation with John Neill today, we assume that the hose you are getting from Sand are somewhat different and we have sent Sand a blanket requisition to send you the hose exactly as per your telegram today to Harry Mudd. We assume this is correct. Thanks a lot for the information on the goals which you gave me over the telephone. Best wishes. jre;m i ! o x 2 s b pa ie : DONS BALES Tpoaegnnunceares eieue euanaatg Saeeet ria ee f SS iol eA a eas be Deceniber 15, 1938.

Dear Phog: I know you are getting very impatient about those special socks that you ordered from us and we have been firing a letter to the factory every day or two for the last week. At the present writing we have not received a reply from them on the subject, but are hoping to get one by Wednesday of this week and we sincerely hope that their reply comes in the form of an invoice, indicating that these socks have been shipped. I just want you to know, Phog, that this is not our fault. We usually try to give a lot better service, but this as you will recall is a special sock. Best wishes for the New Year.
