Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, it ssouri_) Dear Dr. Allens Thank you very kindly for your letter together with the copy of your book entitled “Better Basketball". I shall enjoy reading it and I know Jack can spend some of his time very profitably looking into it. I have never been to Missouri to look at the institution and I hope to go there the first part of next week. After that, Jack and I will reach some sort of a decision about what he is going to do next year. I enjoyed visiting with you the other day and I hope, regard- less of where Jack may go to school, that we may have an opportunity to again sit down sometime and discuss people whom we both knowe Sincerely yours oe : John W.
