Dear Doc.
I was very glad to see your basketball team come out so weal. I
know that you had a fine bunch of boys to work with,but I also
know that if it were not for your coaching and handling of men
it would have been just another team.
How does it feel to have Dees working against you again. It seems
he is Sent on seeing you get beat. I was pleased to have him get that
job. Although he did not say so I could tell by his letter that he
was glad to leave the East,
I had planned to be in Lawrence in time to see the Big Six track
meet, but we got rushed with work and all annual leave was canceled
until after June 30.
Doc. as always I am in need of a little advice. I don't like to Waste
my time and I am not saving any money ,so 1 have planned on going
to Geo. Town Law School. ‘there is one Question that is bothering
me. THE WAR. I have my commission in the R.O.T.C. and should go to
camp this summer. I owe my country somthing, yet I would like to
get this law training befor I get out of the mood. ‘the question
is should 1 go to summer school or should I wait until next fall.
I would'nt want to trust my self to a leader that did'nt know
agy moreabout war fare then I do. Do you think we will was tute the
war. | think that an older man can think a lot more clearly on
a subject like this. I am very much up a tree Doc. and would like
very much to have your opinion.

Give my regards to Squat when you see him, and to some of the other

people in the K,U. Athletic dept.
