Mr. Forrest C. Allen,
Director Physical Education,

Lawrence, Kansas.

My dear Phog:

I am in receipt of your December 11th letter and
first let me say that I am truly sorry that any remarks that
I am quoted as having made, were such as to have caused you
any grievance.

Only a portion of a conversation that I nad with
@ certain party was quoted, in an uncomplimentary manner
and in such a way as to fail to express my true feelings
with regard to you or your remarks.

You, Phog, have known me for some time and should
know that there is nothing malicious in my make up which
would call for my making any statements intentionally, with
the view of causing any one the least of harm, ill will, or
hard feelings.

Unfortunately the best of us are some times

misunderstood and I feel this is one of those regrettable
