Dear Mr. Srennan:

Your very good letter of the 18th
received, and I will reply at once. i am happy to

know that you are still interested in the gaigo of
basketball, and incidentally in my new book "Better
Basketball, Ineorporating Technique, Tactics andi Tales".
It is now on the press of the MeGraw-Hill Book Company,
330 West 42nd Street, New York City. We are reading
the final proof on the book as the assignments are
coming in now,

I am very proud of this book, It is
by far the best one that I have ever published, if I
do say it. It is more complete and it is up to the
minute. i am sending you a deseription of the contents
which I hastily struck off for some one. You can get
an idea from this deseription what it is like.

If you would write to Curtis W. Mc~-
Graw, vice president of the UcGraw-Hill Book Company,
he could tell you about ‘when the book will be off the.
press. :

it is a pleasure to read your descrip-
tion of the great game that you played in your upset
victory.

ft feel pretty certain that you will
like the chapter on Tales as this deseribes six or eight
high light contests that were pulled out of the fire by
one means or another, I have used 163 photographic
illustrations and 83 diagrams, I trust that you will
like the book, and after you have read it pretty care=-
fully I would like to have your criticism of it.

I wish you lots and lots of guecess.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education.
