Dear “Phog":

: I am reasonably sure that I wrote you once before but there
is nothing like trying again.

I still have about eleven or twelve red, white and blue
shirts lettered "KANSAS" which could be used by some of your basketball
squads and I am wondering if you would like to consider taking them
off our hands at a very ridiculous price.

These shirts lettered and trimmed as they are will range
between two and three dollars each and if you are at all interested
I will make you a price of $1-00 each on them. They have been slight-
ly used as salesmen's samples -- otherwise, are in first class shape-
If you are going to be in Kansas City any time soon I would be glad
to show them to you or will be pleased to send them out to you on
approvale Let me hear from you if you are interested.

Before closing I might add that one of our long lost mutual
friends was in yesterday. Believe it or not it was Johnny West, one
of your old-time Warrensburg stars who then weighed about 150 pounds.
He still has his pug nose but his waist line has expanded to about
my size, so you can visualize what he looks like- He is located in
some town approximately 100 miles north of San Francisco but I forget
the name of the towne He was on his way to Warrensburg, advising
that his mother is quite ill but he does not know just how long he
will be in these parts- Naturally he asked about you and we
reminised on the names of quite a few of the old-timers and I enjoyed
seeing Johnny a great deal.

Here's hoping you have a good (seventeen year 01d) squad this
season and can again come out on top.

Yours as always,
4G
