Dear Gord:

Thank you very much for your good
letter of the 25th ultimo, enclosing money order for
$40,00 which entirely takes care of your financial —
obligation with mm, |

Concerning basketbell, I am afraid
that we do not have prospects for another champion-
ship basketball season. Two years ago we lost Ebling,
Kappelman, and Milton Allen from the ever-victorious
outfit. Last year we lost Noble, Rogers, Wellhausen,
and Holliday from the tied championship team, That
isaves but 6 from the eight stars of the two years.

Ye were very fortunate last year to
come through with a tied championship, I thought.

Ckleshoma and Kansas are the two schools
that iost four out of their five regulars. The Aggies
lost Groves, but they have all the rest of the team
back, And fievrasia Ost Sorenson, but they have Parsons,
their star guard who-is a senior, al with the other
seniors ~ Amend, Dorman, ee aoe foot center, and
other fellows. “heir team is s a with seniors.

They should clean up because last year they had some
exceptional talent coming up.

_ We, of course, will make a fight out of
it, because any time you have 2 boy like Pred Pralle
as &@ regular on which to build you should not fecl down-
east. However, we do have too many inexperieneed men to
compete with Nebraska. Missouri and Iowa State, as well
as Kansas State, have a good chance to go far,
