IOWA STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE AND MECHANIC ARTS AMES, IOWA December 31, 1943. DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION FOR MEN Dr. Forrest C. Allen Varsity Basketball Coach University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Doc: We were very glad naturally to get Brookfield; he is quite a ball player as you know, However, within the next two or three weeks we are going to lose two of our regulars, one of whom Kester is in the Air Corps Reserve am is to be called in January and the other is Naylor who will go sometime in January. I think the team to watch is Oklahoma, and who ever heard of figuring the dear doctor shat of a championship. That leaves me with Ray Wehde and Oulman as Roy Wehde is just fair, Ihave a Pittsburgh boy, but he was just a freshman sub on the team there last year. He won't help us any. Best wishes to you and yours for a happy and successful _/ Fouls Menze , ‘ Basketball Coach year, tv /sm
