Dear Dre Allen:

I should have written you a personal note of thanks long before this
date, thanking you for the many courtesies during my recent, hurried
visit in Lawrence. Please accept sincere thanks at this timee

The purpose of this letter is to ask for a quotation on your Hol-Hi
basketball standards. I should like to purchase one for my four
youngsters as a Christmas present, and, in addition, would like to
recommend the purchase of two or more for the use of our basketball
teams I feel that if we can get a few of them in circulation in
this vicinity, their use will spread very rapidly. I was greatly
impressed with the demonstration put on by the youngsters, between
halves, of your basketball game, and was quite interested in your
article which appeared in this month's Athletic Journale

Had a visit with John Bunn, at Rotary, yesterday, and told him all
about my visit with the Allens. He asked me to send kindest regards.

Trusting that I may have an early reply on the above, and with kindest
personal wishes to Mrs. Allen, Bob, your lovely daughter and Burt and
Ruth, I am

Cordially yours,

x vat &
