My face you don't remember because I met you during the rush week when your nephew 'Hub' Allen pledged Delta and told you so in the front yard of the house. Date--fall, 1929. My check is inclosed for $4.10 for your latest book On basketball; please autograph and every Kansas City jad who reads it will sign it in the back. My hope is that they shall receive their collegiate =— in that game at U of Kansas, and under you. Henry Shenk will hear from me later as I believe my friend, Otto Rost, the KU football guard & tackle spoke rather highly of him some 10 years ago, If Shenk needs any help to work his team up to an all-out fighting piteh for the Nebraska feud, I shall write Manhattan and see if they can help those Jayhawks lick the Huskers. Must leave for work now, Mr Allen, in this Indian Summer downpour. Will try to make each cover interest- ing enought to be put into your cover collection. If you are interested in American commemoratives, I do _ have access to a large variety you might like. Keep up your splendid work with the youth on Mount Oread, and keep teaching them to never admit defeat un- til the final gun is fired. © Your frien acy Leonard B. S. in Business '29
