Rev. Thomas R. Mordy,

Dear Reverend Mordy:

It was nice of you to write as you did in your letter
- Of March 16, and I have let it lie here on my desk expecting each day
to sad tvnhecanleucnas! |

ins week ek UE fl He is a splendid chap and a
brilliant student. He came back after his boot training and we had a
nice visit. I think when Jim gets his toughening in the Navy that he
will do a swell job with us here in athletice. Jim got out an inforn-
ation brochure on basketball that was a classic, the best that we |
have ever had. He is a fine, clean young man and I an very fond of
him, indeed. We are hoping that he will be returned to you and Mrs.
Mordy, and that later he will come to us at the ‘University.

Thinking that you might enjoy a copy of the Jayhawk Re-
bounds, @ monthly publication we sent to ow’ boys, inoluding Jim, I
am sending you one for your perusal.

Again thanking you, and trusting to have the pleaswre
of meeting you in the near future, I an

Sincerely yours,

- Director of Physical Education,
FOA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
