However, do you have a list of Valley basketball champions from the first year, probably 1908, up to 1920. I also need the games won and lost by the championship team each year. If you do not have such a list, do you know if one is in existence. I*m sorry to bother you about this, Phog, but I'm trying to compile Valley records in all sports and these early basketball records are the only ones which I have been unable to get. Since you have been the basketball king of this section so long, I thought possibly you might help me.

Dear Phog: Artie Wilers writes me that he stopped off and had a talk with you recently and that he told you that I would contact you in regard to the dope for the basketball guide as well as some records of Valley basketball which I thought possibly you would have. Although I regularly earn my living as a member of the Register sports staff here, I do a little sideline work for the Valley conference. I that capacity this summer I am endeavoring to get together the basketball records of the past. I have the league standings and all the scores from 1929 to date, but I have only the name of the championship school from 1923 to 1929 and not a darned thing before that, First of all I need the names of the champions from 1908 to 19235, Then, if possible, I would like to get the final standings in all the years between 1908 and 1929. Of course, I would like all the scores during this period but I doubt very emggx much if they could be secured. I assure you that I will appreciate any of this information you can supply without going to too much trouble. I know that if any- body in the country can give me the dope on Missouri Valley basketball history, you are that man, Artie said something about stories for the 1937 guide. Several months ago I sent in a review of the Valley season. Me said that you might combine the Valley and “ig Six in another story. If there is anything I can furmish you on our end of it don't hesitate to ask it. You probably don't remember me, but I accompanied you, Sec Taylor, and Mr. and Mrs, Hartley back from a basketball game at Ames a coupte of years ago. Thankx for anything you can do to help me out.

Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dr. Allen: I am glad to have your letter of June 21. I have had in mind all along that no matter what else came out of the investiga- tion I made at Lawrence it would be a great pleasure to have a@ new warm-up suit made for you. I have been definitely planning to ask Mr. Heinrich at Lowe & Campbell to duplicate the suit he made for you in 1929. If this is not the detailed specification of the suit you would like to have at this time, please let me know. The attorney who is handling the matter for the other side has tentatively agreed to a settlement, and we are waiting now to have his client make up her mind whether she will accept his recommendation. If she does, the matter will be disposed of, and I can then return all the property I have borrowed. If she does not agree, then it may be necessary to make depositions, in which case I want to keep the jackets in various orders until that has been done. For this reason I had planned to hold up the matter of ordering the suit until the final termination of the affair, because I have Lowe & Campbell's original orders, including the specification of your suit. They could undoubtedly work better after I have returned this to them. I will let you know just as soon as anything definite has happened, one way or the other. Yours very truly, wl 6 load ox T. L.

Dear Dr. Allen: I have just come home from the trip on which I saw you and have received your letter of June 3, which came after I had left for that trip. You must have thought it strange that I did not re- fer to the portion of your letter which suggests that we make some reciprocal agreement whereby you could obtain a number of the hooded jackets or some other suitable compensation for the trouble you have been put to in collecting this data for me. Of course, I never intended to ask you to go to any trouble on our account without showing our appreciation in some suitable manner, and the reason I did not take up the question with you when I saw you was that I wanted to wait until the matter was closed. It is to be hoped that the material and information you let me have will dispose of the matter but it is always possible that something will slip and that further work or additional informa- tion will be required. I am writing this hastily immediately upon receipt of your letter because I wanted you to have my thoughts on the matter before I leave again tonight for another prolonged trip. I will consider it a great personal favor if you care to write me a personal letter giving me your ideas about compensation for your services. I feel that this is a matter in which you should personally benefit rather than the team or the University, although I shall be glad to be guided by your suggestions. I very much appreciate what you have done and it is a great source of personal satisfaction to find what I was seeking.

I am glad to know that you have the jacket that Lowe and Campbell made for you in 1926. I should like very much to see this jacket, and if I have the opportunity of being in your part of the country soon, I should like to talk to you about it. A number of our customers are interested in making various forms of hooded jackets this year and we, of course, are selling fasteners for them. There is a patent attorney in New York whose client has a patent on a different form of hooded Jacket and he is causing our customers and us considerable annoyance by trying to stretch his patent to cover the jacket we are promoting, and threatening to sue us. We believe that the jacket you have which was made many years before the patent was applied for, is like the jacket our customers are now making and not like the patent. We have taken this matter up with the attorney in question, and we believe if we can satisfy him that Jackets such as we are now promoting were made prior to the date of filing application for his patent, useless litigation will be avoided. For this reason, I should greatly ap= preciate your sending me the jacket as you suggested. I should like to show it to this attorney and I should also like to know how we can prove you bought the garment before, let us say, 1951. I shall appreciate it if you will, before sending the jacket, mark it in some inconspicuous place with your initials or some other identifying mark so that if it ever should become necessary, it will be possible for you to sign an affidavit that this particular gar- ment identified by this mark, was purchased by you at a certain time. I do not wish to put you to any trouble or inconvenience, but if you have any records handy that you can refer to, I should very much like to know what they are. It is quite possible that I will be out in that part of the country some time this Summer, and if I am I should like to talk to you about this matter.

As part of our service to our customers we are now engaged in making a study of the various forms of hooded jackets, by which we mean a jacket having a long collar which can be converted into a hood by a slide fastener. Lowe & Campbell Athletic Goods Company of Kansas City, Missouri made a number of these jackets for warm-up garments. They inform us that they were made as early as December, 1926, at which time they made a numberfor the University of Kansas and one for you. We have seen Lowe & Campbell's catalog, said to be 1927, in which you are pictured wearing what Lowe & Campbell say is one of the garments in question. A photostat of this page is enclosed. We would like to obtain, or at least see, one of these garments made at this early period, if one is available. Do you, by any possible chance, have the one made for you that long ago, or do you know anyone who has one like it? What we are interested in 4s the construction of the garment and the method in which the slide fastener was applied, and it is immaterial in what condition the garment may be.

U. CHAMPIONSHIPS DR. FORRES?r C. ALLEN Athletic Dir. and Basket Ball Coach, University of Kansas THE ZéC “PHOG” ALLEN OFFICIAL BASKET BALL Valve Type—Double Lace—Double Lined—Balanced No. 202—The ‘‘Phog’’ Allen basket ball is the direct result of our own manufacturing ideas coupled with the experience and advice of this famous coach. Dr. Allen advocates the use of a ball with a lace—there is an actual advantage, he says, in such a ball and he readily demonstrates the value of this lace in passing and free-throwing. His teams have won six suc- cessive Missouri Valley Championships and he is unquestionably one of the outstanding coaches of the country. This ball has had a thorough try-out and was adopted and used successfully in the 1927 National A. A. U. Championships. It is a valve type ball of the highest quality pebbled grain leather with the famous two-ply or double canvas lining, a positive assurance against stretching and a guarantee of durability. The valve is located opposite the lace, giving perfect balance, and is countersunk so that there is no dead spot at this point. A black and red double lace of leather is a distinctive feature used only in this ball. The construction is such that this lace is not prominent enough to cause variations in speed and direction of rebounds. This double lace—patented—brings the lips of the opening together evenly and perfectly so there is no cross pull as in the single lace. The ball comes ready laced and can be inflated or de- flated through the valve in a few moments.

Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Poctor Allen: Mr. Hunter, brought your letter and one from T.P. Jr. up to the office this morning so I thought I would write and tell you what progress we have made in getting T. P. Hr.'s residence established in Kansas. I note that what we have done is in accord with your suggestions. The committee refused to allow T. P. to enter as a Kansas residence. Yesterday I called 4enry Werner but was unable to get any satisfaction from him, except that the committee felt that the boy was merely trying to get mf out of paying non- resident fees. 1 then had my call transferred to Prof. Brocklebank, who though not a member of the committee, had sat in on the meeting and had objected to the boys admission as a resident. Brovklebank, claims that the boys residence and domicle is where his parents are located. I claim that due to the fact that his’. parents are. separated and have refused to care for the boy and being over seventeen he can have a different residence by declaring a new residence. After considerable more arguing it was agreed that Prof. Brocklebank, would ask the committee to reconsider this application. I then called Mr. Hunter and had him come up and sign an affidavit setting out the facts as I had related them to Brocklebank. I then sent this affidavit with a long letter to Brocklebank, In my letter I cited several Kansas cases which clearly show that such an exeeption to the general rule as I claim is recognized by the courts of this state. I asked Brocklebank to hand this affidavit and letter to the comnittee so that they would have the complete story before them, Personally, Dr., I think the boy is a resident of Kansas and that the law is on our side. The purpose of the guardianship papers was to show by a legal proceedings that he was a resident of this state. I finished my letter by stating that under the circumstance in this case the boy warrants receiving all benefit of any doubt. You know as well as I do Dr. that they.can let this boy in if they want to. I fully realizex your position 3 in these matters so I have refrained from mentioning your name 4 to either Werner or Brocklebank, wesw Yours truly, September 22, 1937. Nie» zs.
