N.Y., one of our varsity basketball Jayhawkers of '34 and '35, has not received his
Jayhawk Rebounds. We are checking back on our old files, and making an effort to
bring Bob up on his Jayhawk Rebound reading. Uncle Sam has done a good feb of
delivering the Rebounds, but for some reason he has failed in delivering, to the
Judge Advocate General's Office, this sport dope, Bob Oyler was Couty Jttorney
of Douglas County, and a successful practicing Attorney at Law here when he entered
the service. He has made a fine record, and Bob, we are doggono sorry somebody
shorted out on you.

"This evening ‘I have the old southpaw warned up so thought it would be
a most opportune time to attend to a matter about which I have been most. dolinquent.
A very short time ago, among a bundle of letters which followed me to Europe then
back again to California, arrived your nice letter to me in France, dated January
3, 1945, Believe it or not, some of the letters I've been receiving are over a
year old. But, a still enjoy reading them and catching up on all the nows I nissed,"

"You ehbtaanedt sending. me the Rebounds, but I still have never received
thas and if the mailing list hasn*t already exceeded your supply of paper, I'd sure
appreciate one next time you go to press. Outside of a very fow of the fellows whose
names appear from time to tame in the Journal-World, I've just about lost out on
their whereabouts."

"Rope! Engleman must have received some nasty burns in his mishap. I sure
hope he is coming along in good shape. as for me, I think I have about six more |
months in the hospital. Since I was home last. winter, my ‘arm has been worked on twice,
, but to date the median nerve has not been successfully sutured. Altogother, about
six centifteters of scar tissue have beon removed from it, .and."next time" the neuro-
surgeon says he will be able to get good nerve bundles for a permanent suture, ‘Today
I removed a cast I've been wearing. fom five weeks, .so asl obT ated it with a swim Ay 4

‘We have quite an extensive. pedanetbbedines program hero.-- a fine big well-
equipped gymnasium, beautiful swimming pool, and various diamonds and courts, plus |
fishing and hiking trips in tho mountains. Oh yes, out by the swimming "pool arg two
Goal-Hi courts. I never shoot out théro without thinking of you. Ny left-handed
shooting and passing, like Englemen's ponmanship, is improving slowly but surely.
Sure wish I could have had this lett= ais meena) a few years ago.” —

"With the Athletic Department in its sitive sgtebdiie financial, condition, I
