Dear Phog;

Thought you might be interested in knowing just how your
radio basket ball dramatization was received by the radio sudience.
I, for one, was a very interested listener. I thought the material
snd the manner in which it was presentedwere of the highest order.

I could just close my eyes sand visuslize the prospective new student
in your office, receiving fatherly advice from you. Also Had a
mental picture of your blaeck-board talk snd session on fundamentals
that was briefly portrayed in the gymnasinn. From this point the
listener was very smoothly carried in to the suditorium where the
game was presented. I could visualize the packed auditorium and
your boys performing snd carrying out your plans to perfection.

Was also very much impressed with the intermission pep-
talk. Again I could just see the group of perspiring basketeers
behind closed doors, listening to your instructions snd corrections,
and finally the howling audience, carrying on through to the victory.

I was very much impressed with the manner your boys de-
livered their parts, to the radio listener it appeared ss though each
performer was ad libbing, but of course I do not believe they were.

Let me take this opportunity, Phog, to thank you for the
service you rendered me when you recently adjusted my leg injury. Have
been able to fill 911 engagements on my schedule thus far. Of course,
the knee appears to be wesk snd there is still some Swelling but
believe when I get off my feet and give it a rest it will be okay.

Many thanks to you, Phog, and I am voting for more such
radio brosdecasts from KFKU.

Very sincerely yours,

Lol foe
