ALIEN, Lawrence, Kansase Dear Dy, Allen: Just a line to say this. T am interested in Max being Jocated in next stop at some school where basketball is going good, that is some service set-up of the Navy which he is in. He is due to move I think from Mt. Yernon, Iowa, at Cornell about Sept. loth to 20th. I do not know where he might be sent but likely there are spots which are better in basketball than otherse Of course you know that I do not ask any favor as regards his work or service in any way but thot that might be he could be sent to differeat apots and if could get to a basketball spot I think he would like it. Tf you know of anyone to suzgest this to, Iwould be glad and if not no harm donee Mex is very busy and getting along well at Mt. Vernon so far as I know. Sorry do not have time for further discussion noOWe Spose you will have a basketball team there this year. When you get a schedu&@é or any advertising matter, send me some. Glad to hear from you any time and if you have any tough problems I think I can solve them. \ Very a Ga © a, es ees ek
