Dear Phog:

I am hastening to let you know that your
letter of the 4th and the package containing your book entitled
BETTER BASKETBALL arrived last Saturday. I am delighted with
the book and greatly appreciate the friendliness of the auto-
graph. This morning Martin, now seven and a half, woke me up
at 6:50 to have me read all about the bandages. Apparently he
has been studying the book with great care and is looking
forward to a chance to see a real basketball game. I only wish
that I could initiate him into this sport by letting him see
one of your teams play Nebraska or Missouri.

Your report on Allen Wilbur and Alfred Hill
came as a surprise to me. I had been looking for Alfred Hill
in New York during the past week and I sincerely hope that he
did not pay his visit here during my recent absence. I always
look forward to a good visit with him.

With kindest good wishes, I am

Sincerely yours,

——
