is now head trainer at the University of Texms. He has been there a
number of yearse “Mike™ Kelley, as he is affectionately know there

over the cowrtry. Cox and Logan are at two of the big eastern schools,
in at Texas, the largest school in the south, Dees to Nebrasia,
the largest school in owr Missouri Valley (9100), and since Dean

traitiors at the University of Kansas before they went to yr be
jobs, leturally the home school does not pay them as well as schools
outside of the student's domain. All of these boys have graduated

my book, “Setter Basketball", I have written a chapter
sites Gpedmamk of OUdatie injuries. I am mailing to you a copy of
this book by parcel post. Since it is the property of the University
of Kansas, of course I carmot give it to you, but I will write my

the high sehool coach the proper fundementals, preparations for the
season, arranging schedules, and the technique and fumdementals of
basketball, but I also realize that these coaches know so little of
Inman anatomy that I thought it best to teach then something about
the care and treatment of athletic injuries.
