Mr. A. J. Van Citters,
716 W. 3rd St. No.,
Eagle Grove, Iowa.

Dear Mr. Van Citters:

I have just returned after a very pleasant visit with
you and your fellow coaches at Boone, Iowa. I acknowledge
receipt of your payment of $4.00 for my text, “Better Basket-
ball". I am writing you now te be very certain of the spelling
of your name and yeur address.

The reason I am deing this is that a letter will be re-
turned to me, whereas if I should autograph a book it might lie
in the postoffice umcailed fer, for quite some time. I can be
more accurate with a letter.

I would like to know if you would like any special auto~-
graph, such as “remembering the pleasantries of the Iowa High
School Athletic Association Coaching School at Boone, Iowa, on
August 15 - 19", and so forth. Or would you want me to autograph
it to the school, or what? If you have any special preference,
let me know. If not, I will just make a short introduction with
the autograph. If you have any special feature I will be gled to
follow that. If you do not want to write a letter just put a
footnote at the end of this letter and mail it to me, and if I
do not hear from you in a week I will autograph the book with my
own introduction and mail the same to you.

Again remembering with very great pleasure our fine assoc-
iations, and wishing you success for the coming year, I am

Very sincerely yours, ;

Director of Physical Education,
