Dr. F. C. Allen
Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Dr. Allen:

In my school I have a boy who had infantile paralysis a few years ago
and as a result, he has one limb which is smaller than the other and
about one-half inch shorter.

He wants to participate in the gym classes and try and strengthen his
weak limb. I told him I thought you might be able +648 where he could
secure a basket ball shoe which would help relieve his difficulty.

He is a brilliant boy, is anxious to progress and wants to help him-
self. Any information concerning such a shoe, its cost, etc. will be

much appreciated.
