Mr. Robert Fuoss,
Managing Editor,

The Saturday Evening Post,
Phladelphia 5, Pa.

Dear Mr. Fuoss:

I nod not toll you that T was Smmensely pleased to have
your letter of the 25th instant. |

Your diagnosia of the situation was exactly correct.
Already Ned has sugar-coated the proposition so far as he is —
concerned. And there will be sporadic backer-uppers in the form
of sports writers who will say that God is still in His Heaven
and all is right with the world.

I can appreciate your position regarding an article.

_ However, I think an editorial could be mich stronger than an

article because it would show that the Post has taken a stand
and the influence wielded by your publication would be many
times stronger than an article. Certainly an editorial on the -
subject for publication around Christmas time would be climactic.

It will be several days before I can get you the full
gist of the stuff I desire to send you. But I will mke it fulsome .
and informative enough for you to give them plenty.

My kindest regards to Ben Hibbs. We have always been in-
tensely fond of hin.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
FCA :AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
