One of Ottawa University's greats, Lt. (jg) Gerald K. Barker, USCG,
is at Govt. Island, Alameda, Calif. "Bark" took his graduate work in our
Phys. Ed. department. He says, "It has been some time since I have been
around the campus, but sometime soon I hope I am able to come back and write
that thesis, the only remaining work needed for my master's degrees « « «
I was happy to see that Kansas finally whipped the Cornhuskers. There are
some fellows here from Nebraska and it gave me a chance to talk abit. I've
seen very few fellows frem Kansas since I've been in. I saw Kenneth Kell from
Topeka up in Connecticut about two years ago. . . I'd appreciate your saying
helle te Dean Nesmith for me, and also my regards te Milt and family."

"Papa" Curley (Irven W.) Hayden, whose first child is a boy, is at APO
492, New York. He writes, "I have been here (India) well over a year and
during that time have met only one K.U. man. Consequently the arrival of
the Rebounds has started a new era. To me they are just like a visit heme when
you tour Main Street meeting all yeur friends and acquaintances and stopping
fer a short chat with each. . .. if you would, please, I wish te convey my
greetings and best regards to ol' Dean Nesmith and his family; alse to the
recipients of Jayhawk Rebeunds that I may knew or know of, I'd like to send a
hearty helle and wishes for continued good luck."

We're glad te send yeur greetings, Curley. We were delighted to see
your wife when she stopped in the effice a shert time azo.

ef where we were playing. Frank says, "After traveling way out to New Guinea
and back, your Rebeunds fer July, I believe, finally caught up with me here
in Washington, D.C. But it was ne one's fault but mine for my complete failure
te notify you ef my change of addresse I was just so doggoned happy to get
back te the greatest place in the world that I forget all abeut it. They
finally decided I had seen enough ceuntry so shipped me back to be a
'Constitution Avenue commando’ for a while, but only for a while, for I am
already scheduled fer shipping back ovt in Jan. You can rest assured though,
