KANSAS STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE AND APPLIED SCIENCE MANHATTAN DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND ATHLETICS March 12, 1940 Dre Forrest C. Allen Director of Physical Educ. and Recreation University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dr. Allen: Thanks very kindly for your congratulatory letter. Mrs. Gardner and James Bruce are getting along very nicely and to say that we are proud to have a son is putting it mildly. Naturally, I am in hopes that some day he will be a basketball player, but I'm afraid that he will never attain the accomplishments of Milt and Bob. 3 Will you kindly drop me a line telling me at what time the final NC2A championship game on March 30 will start? I would appreciate this information at an early date as I am withholding the acceptance of a banquet Jaa pending the starting time of this game. With best wishes to you and your play-off series and congratulating you again on your fine season, I remain Sincerely yours, ck. ek Gardner asketball Coach
