PH! KAPPA PSI

Portis, Kansas
May 24, 1943

Dear Doe,
I have your letter of May 14 saving that the gold

basketballs had been ordered. When they arrive I wish

that you would send my ball to Miss Marcile Peterson, of

116 North F. St., Wellington, Kansas. I wear the gold
basketball which we won last year constantly and I am
just as proud of it as any of my college memories,

I have been at home now since I finished my exams.
I am waiting for my orders to the Navy air corps and I
expect to get them sometime during the first vart of June,

I will probably be sent first to Mt. Vernon, Iowa. I hope
that where ever 1 am stationed next winter I will be able
to ovlav basketball. I certainly do have some fine memories
of games and trips we have taken the past two years. I just

hove my competition the next two years could be as pleasant,
but it probably won't be.

Doe I want to thank you for everything you did for me
while I was at Lawrence. You were swell and I really did
anpreciate it. I consider it an honor to heve vlayed under
you and I always will. I only wish I might have helned a
little more along the basketball line.

Thanks again and I'll dron vou a line every so often

after I am stationed in the service. If I set the chance
I will drop in to see vou before I leave.

Sincerely:
