Dear Johnny:

We use the liquid belt dressing which is supplied
by any supply company that furnishes belt dressings 8
belt dressing is a heavy, gelatinous liquid that is used on
the surface of wide belts that rm over rollers; of course,
the purpose ef it is te adhere to the rollers

I used this some twenty years ego on dance floors.
We had & paint brush and we daubed this stuff on the soles of
the shoese It marks up the floor terribly bade The floor
looked as if a group of tarehealed giants had ferociously
dug and skidded arowd on the floor, but it does the jobs

-If your Glen Falis beys are playing on a wax
surface and if you or the host care much for the looks of
the floor afterward, you had better try it out om some other
floor to see what you will do to a surface after 40 minutes
of plays It will look like Mephistopheles came up from Hades
and tossed some pitch around before he did his dirty worke

Thanking you for your kind wishes regarding our |
basketball team and trusting that nobody will shoot you
after using the belt dressing, I am,

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recreation
Varsity Basketball Coach
