Wr. Claude Kissick,
Superintendent of Schools,
Wellington, Kansas.

Dear Mr. Kissick:

Your inquiry regarding Mr. Cade Suran is at hand.
You will pardon me for not knowing the exact location of
Mir. Suran at the present time. I have had him in my coach-
ing school classes, but for the moment I cannot locate hin
in his present position.

As I recall he is a Southwestern graduate, but I
cannot intelligently describe his work until I can place
him in his present and previous positions. A few years
ago I had quite an extended correspondence with him and
with his employer, but it is rather hasy for the moment.
Will you be kind enough to amplify his background so that
I may write you promptly regarding my opinion of his qual-
ifications?

I em leaving the latter part of this week for the
Towa State High School Athletic Association )
school to be held at Boone, Iowa, from August 18 to 23.
Clark Shaughnessy, Bernie Bierman, Henry Iba and I will
attempt to instruct the coaches assembled there. At these
eoaching schools which I have each summer I meet hundreds .
of coaches and it is so easy to confuse them that I cesire
to be as specific and as accurate as possible in my recom
mendations. :

With appreciation and best wishes, I am

Very sincerely yours,

Direetor of Physical Education and Recreation,
FCA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
