March 18, 1943. \ Dr. Forrest C. Allen, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Phog: I have been intending to write you for sometime mere- ly to add to the many other congratulatory communications I know you have received. It did not take a national poll to convince a lot of us old timers. We have known for years your abilities which other people are just admitting. May I add, too, I hope you have many more great basket- ball teams and I know you will. Best wishes and good luck. Yours v truly, Captain R. E. Jones, 2E 574, The Pentagon, Washington, D. C.
