. June 9, 1944. Mr. William Lindquist, — ‘121 North 13th strect, ; Kansas City 2, Kansas. Dear Bills I acknowledge with thanks your check for $25.00; also your very interesting letter. No, Bill, I had not worried in the slightest about your meeting your obligation. I knew that you would. I know that a young man has to have a few clothes and a little entertainment, and so forth, but these college boys have an unusual reputation for paying their debts. | : George Spears, the Greek immigrant who is a fine American citizen, the owner of the Deluxe Cafe, showed us a check the other day that he had received from a boy who had run quite a bill with him in 1924. George still had the bills and said, "Don't worry, the boy will pay me when he gots it,” and in came the payment. Merchants up and down the street have great faith in the boys' desire and willingness to pay when they can. Your sister paid $10.00 on your indebtedness. ‘This makes $35 paid on the obligation. : iam glad to know that you are still working at Chrysler Motor Co., and that they recognized your worth to raise you a dime an hour. I am 7 hoping that they again will do likewise in the not too distant future. I am glad that you like your new home. It must be a lot of fun to get into a home after you have lived in an apartment. One of our little ) ago in ransacking through our house, said like this house. It is full of so many surprises." | another there were so ¢ adds to the appreciation of your home. When a fell does something to make life more pleasant he appreciates his hone a lot more. Please give your ded and mom and your sister my kindest regards. 7 felt as though when the Lindquists were not there we were not going to have @ game. I enjoyed then very much. I*1l bet when Dean Corder and Bill Lindquist put their heade together there was something popping at 121 North 13th Street and the environs of Greater Kansas City. 7 : | ~ You shouldn't let a nine-hole golf game get you down, Bill. Maybe it was your score and not the fatigue of the course. Mrs. Allen is in Kensas City shopping today, but I certainly will pass the good word along when she returns.

Dear Carl: Just after you phoned me yesterdey afternoon regarding bringing Lucille and I trust Mrs. Land with you, with the in- tention of discussing Lucilie's enrollment in the University, I received a telephone call from Professor Coombs announcing a Phi Delta Kappa educational banquet at 7 p.m. on Monday, the 24th of July. He is aaking that I be present, and I am wondering if it would suit you just as well to come Tuesday evening at the same time, ~ say between 7:50 and 8 o’clock. We live at 801 Louisiana Street, and we will be mighty happy to see you. Howe ever, if you cannot come on Tuesday, you write me and we will pass up the banquet. It will always be a pleasure for me to serve you in any way because you served your country in such a wonderful fashion in World War I. It will be good to see you and yours. Very sincerely yours, Director of Physical Education, FCA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach. June 22, 1944. Dean Paul B, Lawson, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, University of Kansas, Dear Dean Lawson: Thank you for your footnote which you wrote on Dolph Simons' letter addressed to Adolph at the University of Kentucky. I am returning the letter to you. 3 I did not know that Adolph went down to see Dolph Simons, but i did enjoy the visit with Adolph here in the office. There is a bit of in- formation that he gave me which might clarify the angle of McDonald and Hill being approached by a representative of the University of Kentucky. When Coach Rupp told me that he had never heard of Hill, I did not doubt him in the least, but I said, "Adolph, there was a representative from the University of Ken- tucky here." "Well," he said, “it might have been the football represent- ative because the University of Kentucky is paying a football scout who is connected with the University a salary of $3,600.00 a year just to scout foot- ball material.” And I said, “There is the answer, no doubt. Both Hill and McDonald were football players." The Journal-World never did say that Coach Rupp or any of his emissaries were contacting these Lawrence high school boys, but they did make a point out of it that a University located in this town was faced with a situation of other scouts coming into their own environment and making a pro- position of $90.00 a month, To substantiate further that believe, Mr. C. EB. McBride in his last Sunday's column heads up his Sporting Comment with these headlines: "Kansas City Boys Listen to Sales Talk of University of Kentucky Emissaries". . « The artist sketches an outline of a stadium against a background of university buildings. It shows two young itinerants on the road with their satchels, and above one's head it says, “Board - Room = Tuition!" And the other solilogquizes, "All this for nothing!" The point that I am getting at, P.B., is this = that we are scheduling games with several teams this year in football, everyone of which is doing exactly what the University of Kentucky is doing. Yet if Kansas would or could go half way between the position the University of Kentucky has and the University of Kansas is at the present and has been doing, they. doubtless would make better athletic showings. | ; . _ There certainly must be something wrong when so-called respect= able people and respectable institutions break every law that is written in the book and nobody does enything about it. Yet when things like that are discussed ‘on the campus of Mount Oread - tsk! tsk} What's wrong? Sincerely yours, Director of Physical Education, FCA:AH ee. Varsity Basketball Coach.

The University of Kentucky is a member of the conference that permits the solicitation of athletes and pays tuition, room, beard and other emoluments for athletic services. - Everett Shelton Returns to College Basketball. HE name of Everett Shelton may mean little to you, but if you happen to be one of Kansas City’s thousands of tournament basketball patrons you’ll remember the .great Wyoming university team he brought here in 1942 to win the western playoffs in a Madi- son Square Garden championship game and, victorious there, went on to beat St. John’s in the great Red Cross benefit game that netted more than $35,000 for the Red Cross. Everett Shelton was the coach of that Wyoming team. Shelton was in Kansas City last week. He was on his way home to Laramie where he will take up the mantle of basketball coaching on a 10-year contract the coming winter. When Wyoming aban- doned all intercollegiate athletics after the season of 1942, Shelton took a job with the Dow Chemical company at Midland, Wis. He took his powerful player, Kominich, with him. This lad was 4-F in the draft, and all because he stood one inch above the army regula- tions of 6 feet 6. Kominich has another year of college competition, and we’d hate to be offering any odds that he’ll not be back at Wyoming when the 1944 college schedule opens. Shelton is one of the most experienced coaches of basketball in the profession. His coaching wisdom is a balance between what he has learned in college basketball, and the trickiness of independent basketball as demonstrated by the best of the A. A. U. teams. He was coach of the Safeway Stores teams of Denver, McCracken and all that gang, and as you know he has won a national championship in the intercollegiate world. He knows all the answers, inciuding that of getting, an opposing star out of the game in a perfectly legitimate manner as far as the rules are concerned. Let him foul himself out. If the opposing coach sizes up the situation correctly he can make his moves to counter and quite likely successfully. Wyoming is now going back to intercollegiate competition, and Everett Shelton is returning to the college brand of basketball. Bunny Oakes, former Nebraska line coach, is head football coach at Wyoming. Elton Davis, the athletic director who has made many _ friends here on his visits with Wyoming basketball teams, has a leave of absence from the university and is managing the Connor hotel in Laramie. KANSAS STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE REES H. HUGHES, PRESIDENT PITTSBURG, KANSAS February 25, 1944. Mr. Forrest C. Allen, Lawrence, Kansas Mr. Reaves Peters, Kansas City, Missouri. Gentlemen: I have just read the communication from Dr. Allen relative to play by Paine late in the Kansas game at Norman and his impression of me as formed from unreliable information obtained from Don Barrington. I am surprised that Dr. Allen did not see ALL of the play that resulted in a goal by Paine. It started as Dr. Allen has stated but it certainly did not end as he states that it did. The truth of the matter is that Paine received the ball at the center of the free throw line, he pivoted and went into the air for a shot. For some reason or another he decided not to shoot and dropped the ball to the floor while both of his feet were still in the air. After both feet were on the floor he caught the ball as it rebounded from the floor and without further movement, shot it into the goal. Had either foot touched the floor after his jump before the ball left his hands, he would have been called for having traveled. As it happened, he had dribbled and was eligible to shoot. It is true that Don Barrington came to Pittsburg to see our school and planned to enter K.S.T.C. the fall after he graduated from High School. He did not enter college that fall but went to California instead. I heard from him that winter and the following summer after he had returned to Kansas City. I saw him in Kansas City during the summer after he had attended Kansas City Junior College one winter. He told me that He had -been at a big —— the evening before when the athletes of ee Kansas City had n entertained by the Kansas University coaches and that he had decided to go with some of his friends to Kansas University. I certainly said nothing that was not complimentary to the coaching staff at K.U. or of the school, I have always liked Don Barrington and have been pleased with his success at K.U. I have enjoyed meeting him at such times that I have seen him and know of no motive for him to | have fabricated the tale that I have it in for him. If I had it in for him, I certainly would have called a fourth foul on him early in the second half at Norman for he certainly gave me many opportunities, I was not at all pleased with the game at Norman,in question. The attitude of the players, the coaches and the crowd always influence an official's feelings about a game. I have officiated for over twenty-five years. I can recite the rules, I know the proper interpretations and I am fearless even tho Dr. Allen might think otherwise. In this game, I KANSAS STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE REES H. HUGHES, PRESIDENT PITTSBURG, KANSAS called all of the fouls that were called except three. I called several fouls that were made directly in front of the other official. It never works for the best when this becomes necessary. The Oklahoma bench was quiet and took decisions as they came as they always do. The Kansas bench was up protesting many of the decisions and there was a constant flow of advice to the players from the Kansas bench. I do not expect a coach to sit quietly on the bench and do not think him much of a coach when he does. I have never objected to the manner that Dr. Allen conducts himself on the bench but I have never liked the conduct and attitude of Dean Neismith, the Kansas Trainer. He is abusive to the officials and in this game at Norman, I called a foul on the Kansas bench for remarks that he made. Officials have had this problem to contend with when working Kansas games for quite a number of years. I feel confident that Dr. Allen will get better officiating and that his crowd will react better just as soon as he is able to control the conduct of his bench. I was in Norman last week to work in the Oklahoma A.& M. game and heard many expressions from individuals relative to the attitude of Dr. Allen following the Kansas game at Norman the week before. Strange as it may seem, the individuals whose names Dr. Quoted in his letter as having agreed that the officials had failed to callan all important violation, were the very individuals who expressed to me their entire satisfaction that the game was well officiated even though Dr. Allen did not. I am very sorry that Dr. Allen was not satisfied with the game at Norman but do not feel that the outcome of the game was determined by any mistake or mistakes that may have been made by the officials. I am scheduled to work the Missouri game in Lawrence Saturday night and I shall be very happy for Dr. Allen to arrange for me to see Don “arrington in his presence and if the boy is at all fair, I am sure that I can convince both Don and Dr. Allen that I do not dislike Don and that I have not been guilty of having madefincomplimentary and unprofessional remarks about the University of Kansas Athletic Department. With kindest regards for all concerned. I am Mést Sincerely, F. Lanée,. J KANSAS STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE REES H. HUGHES, PRESIDENT PITTSBURG, KANSAS January 10, 1944. Dr. Forrest C. Allen, Coach of Basketball, Kansas University, Lawrence, Kansas, Dear Dr. Allen: Just a line to let you know that the check covering the guarantee for our game in Lawrence January 3rd, has been received. We play in Topeka Friday night and since I am working in your Nebraska game Saturday night, the boys have decided to accept your invitation to be your guest at the game so we will be at the Gymnasium by a quarter of seven as you suggested.

Lance, oe se: February 8, 1944. — Mr. Al Sutphin, President, Cleveland Mockey Club, Dear Mr. Sutphin: It was very nice of you to write me as you did in your letter of February 5th. You certainly have been very thoughtful regarding Norman Locking's future. if all employers were as thoughtful con- cerning the welfare of their e@aployees as you have been I am sure it would be a very happy world. Yes, you are quite right. I em the basketball coach here at the University of Kansas and have been for 28 years. I taught five summers at Springfield College, Springfield, Mass. I was giving a course in the Strategy of Basketball and another in the Treatment of Athletic Injuries. During one of my clinics Eddie Shore with a bad Imee. IT was able to fix his kmee and I learned after his knee had mended he went back in the came and made about $40,000 - so I am told. About five years ago he phoned me and sent one of his players from Springfield. I was fortunate in fixing him up and felt very happy about it. I hope that we will have as good luck with Norman, although I told him that his age combined with the pounding that his knee has taken made his case not as favorable as the boy who came from Springfield, Mass. I will be happy to know how he is progress- ing. And I do thank you for your thoughtfulness in sending the check. ~ Very cordially yours, Director of Physioal Education, PCA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach. 3700 EUCLID AVENUE CLEVELAND, OHIO February 5, 1944 Dr. Forrest C. Allen Director of Physical Education University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Doctor: Your letter to my secretary, Miss Ansel, has been forwarded on to me at our farm at Ft. Myers, Florida. I want to thank you very much for the interest you showed in Norman Locking. He is, of course, a veteran player whose use to us in the years to come is rather doubtful, still I hated to see him not have an opportunity, in fact every opportunity, toward recovery for the future. I Should not like to have him feel that hockey has been injurious to him inasmuch as so many finish rather brilliant careers without serious mishaps. Please know that we will watch Locking's recovery very carefully and advise you. Also please Know that you were recommended to us by Eddie Shore, General Manager of the buffalo Hockey Club, and who, in his days, was the greatest hockey player to have ever played the game. I believe you are the Dr. Allen of basketball fame and if so it is rather a coincidence that hockey people should go to a basketball personage for relief. Always yours, THE sARGNA President Peo. If you have not already received a check from The Arena it will be forthcoming within a few days. "Bictated at Bre 5 ; Dictated at Sraden-Sutphin Farms, Ft.ulyers, Fla. by Al Sutphin.

Miss Ann Ansel, Secy., Cleveland Hockey Club, The Arena, 3700 Buclid Ave., Dear Miss Ansel: i am writing you concerning Norman Locking whom you sent me for treatment of his injured knee. i went over the history of lir. Locking’s two previous injuries end would naturally suspect a ruptured semilunar cartilege. 4fter several thorough examinations I found a very acute synovitis (inflemmation of the joint) and a fascia of the long head of the biceps which permitted an edema (accumuletion of serum in the cellu- lar tissue) around the outer side of the knee joint, Mr. Looking was suffering from a sacro-iliae sprain on the right side of the back which retarded the healing processes to the knee. part of his trouble came from the previous injury and not all of it from the last fall on the imee joint. I adjusted the sacro-iliec, used diathermy daily, taped it with adhesive to encourage action and exercise with a view to reducing the excessive swelling and then had my trainer thoroughly massage pulate it twice daily to aid the movement of the joint and increase the circulation. | The internal semilunar seems to be in good condition and in ny opinion he should be able to get back inte practice scrimmage in a very short while. | I would advise him to do pleasure skating for a while in that it may tone up and strengthen the capsular ligaments of the mee. I have given him a set of exercises designed to strengthen these ligaments fur ther. ad s% t would advise him while he is exercicing on ice to wear the ace bandage reinforced by an elastic bandage over the right knee. Tn addition to this he should take diathermy treatments during the convalescent stage at least three times a week or every other day. in two weeks time he should be able to enter game competition, this injury has been a very stubborn one but I am happy to say that I believe that he is now mech on the mend. If there is anything that I ean do further in the way of advise or suggestion, do not fail to call upon me. later I should be happy to know how he performs in competition and also to learn if he has any recurrence of his previous trouble. Sineerely yours, | | Director of Physical Education, PCA:AH | Varsity Basketball Coach.
