Athletic Director

Dear Coach:

Perhaps you will not recall the writer of this letter, but

I was in your a agama at Kansgs University one summer and you were
also in my own homeywhen came down AEP, Kansas, to work with
the high school team.

Regardless of your memory on these two occasions I am informed
that a young man, Lynn Greeley, will enroll at your institution this com-
ing fall. This boy's home, as I understand it, used to be in Hutcheson,
Kansas, but he later came to Little Rock, Arkansas. He is one fine
basketball player and really a grand fellow.

I was talking with Lynn the other day an d he indicated that
he was going to your University and I would like for you to take this
as an expression of appreciation for anything you can do for this young
mane There is no doubt in my mind that he will mske you a valuable
player and at the same time I know that a little information beforehand
doesn't hurt a young man who is planning on entering school.

I do not want you to construe this as an attempt to pressure
you in regard to this young man. As I understand it, he is fully able
to pay his entire way through the University. I merely use this as an
entrée between the young man and youe

Thanking you, I am,
Sincerely yours,

Ret Brose
