Dear Dr. &llen:

When I was in the camp at Boone, I vowed to my-
-self that I would write you an expression of my appreciation of
your fine part in that coaching school. And then your letter
came to me before 1 managed to get my letter off. As far as. the
autograph is concerned, I would like to have you write same as
you desire. I will certainly treasurethe book and make much,
use of it, I am sure. The book will be mine, not the schools.

I considered your part in the conference to have been ex-
tremely sensible and practical and certainly helpful and + look
forward to receiving your book “Better Basketball". I am the
fellow with the lame back who was about to return home when by |
your skill I was relieved of the pain and improvement continued =
from that hour. So I am anxious to see the part of the book
that has to do with the care of physical injuries.

Dr. Allen, I feel that you have been and are continuing as
a potent factor in advocating clean and right living and doing
more for boys than just winning games. I like your fine attitude
and energetic approach to clean living and thinking and assure you
that I greatly enjoyed and profited from our contacts at Boone.

Wishing you continued success, I am, ;

Sincerely your
