Malott, Fallen Leaf Lodge, Pallen Leaf, California. * Dear Bobs — Your letter of July 4th has been received and we are happy to know that you are hitting the ball arduously and long. I know it must be grand country out there, but do not get too disappointed af you do not put on weight because you will put on muscular attachnents which, after all, pulls the frame around. You remember what I told you - that activity and hard work develop the muscular attachments so necessery to locomotion and to good health in later life. You are bound to put on more weight as | you grow, but do not think that you have to eat a lot of food and drink a lot of malted milk to do the job. You will get stronger through activity, and that is, after all, what we want. e We have the basketball goal and the ball crated and will send it to you by express. I trust you will enjoy the ball, as I am very sure you will. All the mechanics of shooting and moving toward the ‘basket for rebounds will be very helpful to you, even though it may be in a crude surrounding. I am sure if you have a good goal and a good ball you will draw good associates like a magnet because every able- bodied boy in America, almost, has played basketball. Remember to erouch and to keep your feet under you, and then when you rebound get oa under the area where you are going to jump and go straight up and tap the ball out again, and then if you catch it don't start swinging out until you sink into a crouching pesition, pause for a fraction of a second, and then move away from the opposition. Does not that admonition om a familiar ring? But after all, - it is good fundamentals Le Oe re ee at your improvement. It is pleasantly cool here tenclagy. sol. ioe have a promise of a respite from the heat for a couple of days, at least, all of which makes us very happy. But it has not been so bad here. I am not kick- ing, I aa just celebrating our good luck. , Drop us a line and tell us of your activities and your surround- ings after you get the goal up. The goal and ball will come by express. Be sure to save the paper crate so that you can express them back when you have finished with them. Remember, when you express them, to express them to Robinson Gymasium to me collect. With all good wishes for your continued success, I am 4 Sincerely yours, Director of Physical Education, Varsity Basketball Coach. June 30, 1944.

I don't have a secretary to whom I can dictate private correspondence, although there are three or four girls in ny orange? along with a number of officers, who attend to official businéss. So, ‘itis. 1fftle hard to write letters. I do want to telt- you whatia swell job I think you are doing with your regular Jayhawker mimeographed newsletters about all your youngsters who are scattered to the 16 winds and of athletic doings on the Hill, Things of this sort serve to weld the distant, generally homesick hearts of the boys to K.U. and add to affectionate regard for you. I imagine you begin to get writer's cramp from the tas of signing all those mailings, don't you? But it's not mch trouble, after all, and a lot different from a printed thing. Many of the lads whose names appear in the letters are strange to me, but it's interesting to read about them, - and of course, there are ever so many whom I remember well, especially for the period when I was fellow-sufferer and enjoyer with you on the Athletic Board. Seemingly, there has been plenty of work to attend to there at the University during the past couple of years, but I imagine that it is different in many ways from the normal, It will be fine when old- timers of whom you write can get back, only some of them-won't ever. My work has kept me very busy but I don't think the lot of a Washington warrior has much to recommend it, necessary tho it is, I can't complain on the score of vagueness or uncertainty as to the aim and effects of work assigned me, and most of it is interesting enough, A large part of the materials and documents issued from our branch of Fuels and Lubricants Division (which handles petroleum and coal matters for the entire Army), and stuff coming to us from Command- ing General, A.S.F., Joint Chiefs of Staff, etc., are "secret" or "top sefret" and involve plans in all Theaters, There is call on technical training and experience, - yes, geological, as well as general, — so that I feel that I am fairly directly doing something. Nevertheless, I'll be very glad when I can resume research and teaching work along lines for which I'm most suited and give this full effort. I send you heartiest personal regards and say again that I think the work you are doing is not only a splendid contribution to the morale of an extremely important and widely disseminated sea soning, . the Jayhawks in Army and Navy - but it is carrying on for K.U, in ways that no one can do so well as you, Sincerely, cS Pig 7 Kee hoc, | 7 a Z. vus7 ReCleveoD YOUR tr was Son wAebeDdD Jin | Son, Seors7 _ = JI Have @ trie /O€A, AND be Atk Of we Kansans REM Tr evioy 7Hem, AS YOU CAN SEE van i wacis\| TRYING To Ger sary GOLD S425 Méeke Ap Saw An PaNi0. sa8) Sewoe 23 Being moveo Heee van Mh AND I am toerunare To BEL tHe ties 7 CLass NERC. * te | } THis 13 A TOUGH GEIND Bb You DONT?

At the present time, the schedule calls for a man who could handle classes in the social studies.

Lawrence Deever and I find upon good authority css gg is a very affable and personable young man. le is very energetic and meets people especially well. He is not of the back-slapping variety, but is one who moves easily and favorably into your personality. oe Ae ENS crt te Oe yng aA He is modern, but not too midern to do a constructive piece of work in a church. He doubtless would do an exceptional piece of work. Of course, five more years on his shoulders would enhence his velue greatly, as these added yeare of experience always do to a young man. He has served here as secretary of the Ministerial Alliance and they have now moved him up to the vice presidency. ile has also served on the recreationel council for the summer playground work. He is a re- presentative of the Ministerial Alliance. Prom the very authentic source that I have gleaned this inform- ation it is my opinion that he would deserve your very wise and care- ful consideration. He has great promise, I am told, and I beiieve he would welcome definitely a change to the Congregational Church. Doubtless with his se-called modernity there might be some unpleasantries associated with the fast aud staid United Brethren doctrine. From every source that I have contacted I found nothing but high praise for him. From one minieter who is not a member of either flock I asked him to rate him in his own church, if he were a member of this faith. The minister rated him ninety plus, so you can see that the estimation of him among ministers is. very high.
