Dear Distinguished Presidente Garoia: I feel very guilty in not answering your very splendid letter of November 20, 1944. My successor, President Gerald Hesse, took office on July 1. Our administration in ow Rotary Club elects officers every July and they function for one year. I am the Governor-elect of our Rotary pistrict #123, and go to Chicago on Sunday to attend a small meeting of Rotary Internat- ional which meets in that city from June 11 to 14. We are limited to less than fifty members at a meeting, so they plan to have four of these - 49-member meetings. I am hoping that this terrible war will be over and that we may have our old and wonderful meetings such as we had before the Ware I acknowledge with thanks your bulletin. It certainly was ' interesting. In our University of Kansas here we had Miss Maude Elliott, oux Spanish teacher, translate yow good letter, and I want to assure you that 1t was nice for you to express the sentiment regarding friendly and cordial relations between Rotarians of other countries. Please do not feel that my failure to write you sooner reflected anything other than the fact that I am engrossed in war work continuously. I happen to be secretary of our Selective Service Board and chairman of our War Nursery Board; also have headed up the War Bond drives and the Commmity Chest drives for our University, which has a normal enrollment of 5,000. As head of the Department of Physical Bducation we handled ten thousand man hours per week in our department in building better bodies for our boys of the enlisted forces. We had both Army and Navy personnel here who were carrying on their work of higher education, and at the same time condition- ing themselves for war efforta. Things are looking so decidedly better that we can at least see the end in sight. : | Again thanking you and trusting that in the not too distant future we may have the pleasure of breaking bread with you, I am Sincerely yours, Governor-elesct, District pias, FOA:AH — : - Rotary International.

ESB9ZO SUGERIDO PARA ESTUDIO DE LOS PROBLEMAS DE LA POST-GUERRA Extraemos de un boletin distribuido por la secretaria de Rotary International, una de las sugestiones preliminares para un estudio efectivo, tomadas de libros, articulos en revistas y folletos que acerca de este tema han sido publicados, la que estimamos de interés como informacién sobre lo que piensan sobre el particular, escritores y co- mentaristas rotarios y no rotarios, del mundo. Transcribimos a continuacién el pensamiento del Dr. J. A. Rose representante de Rotary International en el Distrito 12, (Inglaterra) acerca de la habilidad de Rotary para crear una determinacién inte- ligente de obtener Paz. Dice Rose: “Por medio de agrupaciones de estudio, los hombres pueden ad- quirir ese gran conocimiento y mutua comprensién que forma una parte de las obligaciones de todo rotario. Donde las agrupaciones de estudio resulten del todo impracticable, todavia queda e] camino de la lectura concienzuda. Nuestra causa merece que nos esforce- mos por discernir, no los detalles, sino un esbozo de las posibilida- des de esta nueva fase de aventura humana. ;COmo podriamos rea- lizar esto en mejor forma que por medio de lectura y discusiones? PEUSER S, A. TRANSLATION Distinguished friend fresident: It gives us great pleasure to write you, in the hope that this, our first letter, may be the begiming of a more frequent corres- pondence which will permit us to increase our friendship and our cordial Rotarian re- lationship. As an expression of this feeling, and thinking that, hereafter, our letters to each other will increase our understanding of each other's problems, we are sending you a copy of our Bulletin, which we shall continue to send each month, and we shall be grateful to have your Club send us everything that may help us to attain our goals. We greet you with the most distinguished consideration. “DAR DE si “SE BENEFICIA MAS ANTES QUE PENSAR EN Si” EL QUE MEJOR SIRVE" CLUB N® 2192 Kotary Club de La Plata LA PLATA (REPUBLICA ARGENTINA) CASILLA DE CORREO 111 La Plata, 20 de noviembre de 1944, Al Sefior Presidente del Rotary Club de Lawrence, don Forrest ¢.

Je We Greene, Box 43, Dear Bill: — delighted to hear from you and to now nen of your activities at Goodfellow Field. — Thanks for sending Prank Pattee's address. We are sending him the latest Jayhawk Rebounds, and putting his name on our mailing list _ future issues. With best wishes to you and your fine family, I am Yory sincerely yours, : | Director of Physical Education, POA sh. Varsity Basketball Coach. x OFFICERS’ CLUB Goodfellow Field San Angelo, Texas 21 May 45: Dr. F, ©. Allen Dir, Phys. Educ, Univ. of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Doc: I have been enjoying your Rebounds all these months without so much as a word in return since my job is still cut and dried Ground School instructing. Nothing much happens of interest except a few extra-curricular sports in which I participate. Handball is the chief means of exercise we have down here at this field and I play almost every day. I heard from Frank Pattee recently and he wished to, recieve the Rebounds. You may remember him as a freshman football player there ~—— in '43, He was to have started at quarterback against Washburn in the first game that year but was transferred by the Navy just be-~ ‘fore the game, He is out in California now and weighs right at 200 pounds, aj1 of which is mounted on a 6%1" frame, Right now he's on the track squad and has been placing 1-2 in the discus. He paans to return to college after the war, and at the present time he is expecting to come back to K.U. He played basketball for me in high school and I can tell you that he wont hurt the team there a bit, although I think he'll go better in football than in basketball. Things are about the same with my family except that I have two little girls now in place of one, The oldest is 3, the youngest just past one, The oldest already likes ball games better than does her Wother, and although I had hoped for a boy I think I'11 have solid home support if I ever get back to the coaching game, . Things look as though I'm going to be in Army for some time to come. For some reason I seem to be on the ‘critically short' list at the present time and the army desires my retention re- gardless of accumulated points, I have been wondering if the sup- ply of coaches in the high schools of the state is any better than it was a year ago. I'm afraid by the time I get a — I'll be hard put to find a good job, The address for Pattee's Rebounds if you will send him one: Frank S, Pattee S1/e Casu 63 3rd Div. c/o Fleet P.O. San Francisco, Calif. OFFICERS’ CLUB Goodfellow Field San Angelo, Texas I know that he will really appreciate a copy since he has lost contact with a good many of the boys he knew there. It is certainly hard to realize that so many of the good boys are having to give their lives in this desperate struggle. Men like T.P., Freddie Eberhart, Gus Neiss, and other from both K.U. and K-State that we knew are boing to be sorely missed in the post- war world. Those are the men that we need to lead the peace and keep it. They are the ones that we shall have to try to replace. The sad part of it is that so many more will have to go before this war is over. The saddest thing of all is that even after final victory we have nothing concrete now to guarentee that in another generation or so others will not have to repeat this greatest of all sacrifices. The world peace efforts are rather disappointing to date, Keep the Reounbs coming, they are a fine contribuation to all of us who are away whether at home or overseas. Very sincerely y7 Lee Bill Greene Liay 28, 1945. Mrs. Alice Ke Griffith, The Athletic Journal, 6856 Glenwood Avenue, Chicago, Illinois. Dear Mrs. Griffith: | Thank you very mush for your letter and check of May 26. Yes, you may count on me for an article or two next year. But upon the particular phase, I would want to reserve a little ‘time before I make the announcement of the subject. I would pre~ — fer to look over the several basketball publications and fran a cross-section of all of them I may get something rather pertinent. i will write you again in the near future and see how my ideas mesh with yours. There certainly are a lot of articles that : Also, I would like to follow the same procedure regarding any suggestions that I might have in commenting upon the editorials. | You will also hear from me regarding this in the same letter. - Very sincerely yours, Direotor of Physical Bducation, FPCAsAH | Varsity Basketball Goach. _JOHN L.

May 26, 1945 Dr. Forrest C, Allen Director of Basketball University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dr. Allen: At this somewhat late date, I am enclosing a check for your January article. I wish to express again my appreciation of your co-operation in continuing to write for the Journal? May I count on you for an article or two again next year and upon what phase of basketball would you prefer to write? I would also like to ask another favor of you. Will you suggest how we may further improve the Journal from an editorial standpoint? Don't hesi- tate to criticize us, for adverse criticism will help us.

We are grateful to you for the information and for the interest which prompted you to write so thoughtful a letter. We are considering Mrs. Gray very serious- ly for a position here and hope that she is going to be interested. Sincerely yours, MES F. BUNTING General Secretary April 21, 1945. f ‘ Mr. E.G. Grannert, Superintendent of Schools, Lyons, Kansas. Dear Eddie: . | s I would suggest that you have a crown of 18 inches from the eenter of the field sloping to the side. If you ere going to have a track around the field I would suggest you have some crushed rock between the track and the football field. That takes care of the drainage better. The sodding, of course, is the best solution to the drainage problem. If you have a good sod field and a crow of 18 inches in the center, sloping to the sidelines on either | side, you will have a field that will drain well. Some think that 18 inshes is too much, but you searcely notice it and it is moh more efficient than a 12 inch crown. : ‘ I trust this gives you the desired information. ag Sincerely yours, & Director of Physical Rducation, FPCAsAH " | Varsity Basketball Coach. x E:G. GRANNERT, SUPT. LYONS FP elLic SCHOSELS OFFICE OF SUPERINTENDENT LYONS, KANSAS April 18, 1945 Doctor Phog Allen, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Mr. Allen: I am in need of some helpful suggestion in relation to our football field. Our elevation and drainage has not been good. We are now planing to move our field over on its present location some fifteen or twenty feet to make room for construction of teanis courts. While we are making this move, we plan to grade eur field for proper drainage. Also to sod same. Do you have any suggestion to offer as to how many inches drop we should have to get proper desirable drainage ?, Would you suggest the drainage slop be to the sides or lengthwise of the field. Any suggestion you may be able to offer us will be appreciated. Sincerely, Coda Pheweote R. H. WILLIAMS, PRIN. H.S.
