Dear "Phog." :—

Just a note to thank you for the very good
seats you secured for us for the K U - Oklahoma game Saturday
night. We all enjoyed our visit while in Lawrence and the boys
thought everyone they met about the friendliest people they ever
came in contact with.

_ Their general’ treatment and the basketball game
just naturally settled things as far as where they will attend School
next Fall. They both said they had the most pleasant week-end they
had ever spent. Your talk to the boys wherein you stressed the fact
that K U was not a snap in any respect helped sell them a lot. Hall
said he believed you mold the truth in everything you said whereas so
many Coaches and students try to convince him that their Schools are
"nie" for a chap like him. Hall likes the plain facts and hates to be
made over and the treatment of everyone down there was just oneperfect
week-end to him.

I am enclosing a Portis Paper ( or rather mailing one
under separate cover) to show what J.E.Kissell, Editor and one of the
oldest and keenest basketball fans in this whole territory thinks of
Hall as a player. If you wish I will send you the dope on his play in
the District and Regional Tournaments.

Again thanking you for your courtesies, and with
best wishes for the Missouri finale, + an,

Sincerely Yours,

Ute Ae :
