Otto says that Ed Sayers is located there with him. Ed was here for his
freshman year and played at Rockhurst College in Kansas City last year.

to hear from you, Otto, and glad to know that you are still able to sign
the payroll} :

Mighty glad to hear from Jim Reed. His address is:
Pfc. Jim Reed,

Jim writes, “You are doing a grarid job with the letter and believe me I
know how much it is appreciated. Letters from home or news from our friends
come first to a service man. I was glad to get the K.U. football schedule
and also was happy to see a couple of games with Washburn. Wish I could
get home for a game or two, but it looks rather doubtful now. If nothing
happens, however I'll] get back to see your basketball team in action."

Lt. Chester C. Gibbons wrote us on September 6. I quote a part of
his letter; "I just received your copy of Jayhawk Rebounds. It certainly
contained bits of interesting information as to where the fellows are and
what they are doing. First all perhaps you will notice my address.

(Dept. of Training, Tyndall Field,

I've been here nearly 6 months and am one of the officers in charge of
Aircraft Recognition. . .. I do some teaching, but most of the work is
supervisory and administrative. . . . Denzel is now a 2nd Lt. Navigator in
a B-24. He expects to be flying the English Channel before too long.
Best wishes to 'you-all’ - Southern accent."

You are a great guy,.Gibby. You still have that old competitive spirit.
Answering your inquiry, Max Replogle's address is Lt. Max Replogle, Naval

correspondence when you write! I have conveyed your good wishes to Henry
Shenk, Elmer Schaake and Dean Nesmtih. I wish we might include all of
your letter, Murray, but I will quote a part of it for the other boys to
read:

"John 'Pflugerville’ Pfitsch is about to shove off for foreign duty.
I was trying to meet him in Los Angeles in the near future, but he wrote
and explained he would have to meet me somewhere else ~ he had a big
appointment to keep - will let you know when I hear. He also stated you
had written him which I know pleased him greatly. ‘'Kickapoo' Logan was
thru here the other day. He is going to a South Sea base."

And now, some of the best news of all! T. "Ham-bone™ Hunter is safe! ~
Rumor had it that he was missing in action.We quote T. P.'s letter in full:

"No, sir, Doc, you got me wrong, I'm not missing in action. Hope I
never am. I am still very much in the hands of dear Ole Uncle Sam. I
received your nice news letter and it was very inspiring as usual. You
got somethins, Doc, that everyone needs a little more of. I had letters
