Dear Capt. Haskins

I acknowledge receipt of your communication of the
7th instant.

I doubt if we will have any opening for you in our
Department of Physical Education. Mre Ee Ce Quigley is the
Director of Athletics and I would suggest that you address a
letter to him if you are interested in coaching, We have

work for the Department of Physical Education, with intramural
sports for a foureyear undergraduate course in Physical Education,
_ with a B.S. degree and all of its allied intramural and service
work, as well as the academic credit for work taken in Physical
Education. 5

I find that we will use a lot of graduate students who
are working on their masters' degree in Education, with a major
in Fhysical Education. We have a sizeable steff of full-time ;
teachers at the present time and I hardly look for an enlargement
of that staff, .

I wish for you a very successful and happy New Year.

Sincerely yours,

ae | Director of Physical Education,

Physical Education Work with the emphasis on Intra-mural
Sports and possibly some coaching in Track, however, £
can assist with Football.

ized training that I have had and some personal data in

Dear Mr. Little;

I acknowledge receipt of the shoes, as well as your
letter, which indicates that I owe you $10.50. Please find
enclosed a check for this amount.

Also, I wish that you would mail me at least one=

dark tan if you have the laces in that colors Maybe the dark
tan would do for all of them, I find that I have difficulty
in obtaining the right length laces for these shoes. The extra

for Jordan to have it. When you write him, congratulate Jordan
on his splendid achievement in being one of the eight plebes
that made West Point basketball squads. You tell him that I
think it is quite an honor for him to make the training table
and have a private lockere P

I know how rough that West Point eurrioulun ise
Ogden Jones, the Chairman of the Selective Service Board, has a
son at West Point now, They flew him back from Europe last fall
and Be writes that it is rougher than pig iron. I served with
Ogden Jones on the Selective Service System, being the secretary,
so «we see a lot of each other. He tells me all about the situation,
Ogden Jones is the geologist in the Health Department for the State
ef Kensas but is located in the Engineering Building. Ogden and his
family drove back Christmas to visit Ogden, jr. It might be that
Harvey could look up Ogden, I ‘think Ogden is on the track team under
Leo Novak. 4

Dear Dr.Allen:

I noticed in the Topeka Capital that the
University had published a Basketball 3rochure
for this season,and I would like one very much
to send to Jordan. If there is any charge,I
will be glad to remit at onee.

Jordan is at West Point and enjoying the ex-
perience. He is one of eight plebes that has
made the basketball squad,is eating at the
training table,and has a private locker,which
seems to impress him. He missed out on the
Math preparatory because he was in high school
last year and since this is almost essential
he is having a rough time and may be back at
K.U.for the next semester.

Dear Professor Hart:

Our Robinson Gymmasiun for men and women was built in 1906.
While it was a very fine building of its time, I believe that you
would rather have somthing more modern and up to date. The state
architect at Topeka, Kansas, has blueprints which you ean obtain
by —— hime

The siiiaiinia where we play basketball is built as a com
bination auditorium and fing arts auditoriun, so that would not
do you much good.

We have not constructed a field house and we are not was

far along where we would have blueprints. I am sorry that I ean
give you no better inforretion. :

Dear Dr. Allen:

Like hundreds of other Kansas University mothers
I,too, read Landon Laird's article on your generous
methods of supplying the servicemen with university
news. And like most of the mothers I am sending you
my boys .name and address. I do not. know if you
may remember David Hax but I have heard him speak

of you so many. times; Fog Allen, I believe.

David is an ensign on the island of Guam. He has
been there since last March after being stationed
at Pearl Harber for three months. David is in the
sound - sonar - dept. on Guam abd has at present
about 40 men under his direction. He doesn't have
very much to do except when @ne of the 40 hitsa snag.

Before V J Day however he worked as much a 20 hours
at a time without rest. This he did ofetn because
the ships docked at Guam were serviced there.

David majored in Electrical éner. and before he
entered the service he had six monthsin industry
with T.W.A. and they are holding an opening for
him on his return. He entered the service in June
194%, David graduated , I think it was in June 1943,
but did not finish his studies until the midyear
graduation had there been one.

if you have any extra copies of Rebounds wé gya}44
be very grateful to have David on your mailing list
or send the news to us and we will send it O06 to Him.
