Dear Doe:

Well, we played this Naval Station team
quite a game.  =Led them at the half 24-18 - tied up 42 all
with thirty seconds to play. A free throw in the last fifteen
seconds finally beat us.

Now as to their personnel. Calihan will
probably start at center. He did egainst us. In the elutch
he will be in the ball game. He is left-handed, plays in the
hole position and will swing off to his owm right using ‘a left-
handed hook. Will play deep enough so I think you can put your
guard in front of him. Schneider did pretty well on him. Klein
will probably start at one forward and he also will play close
around the basket. A very good tip-in man. You must have a
big man on him. He is one of the first men down in the break.

- In the clutch he, too, will probably be in the game. Klein is a
right-handed shooter and you can play him to whirl off and shoot
with his right hand. Lobsiger started at the other forward and
did not look strong at all. When Baumholtz comes into the game
have a darn good man on him. He is just 5'10", and very fast.

Very shifty and a good scorer. He is one of the first men down on

their break. Andres will probably start at guard. Fine long shoot-

er. We did a good job on him to hold him to one basket. Incidental- 4
ly I think Baumholtz is their leading scorer. Currie is their team 4

captain and started at the other guard. A fine defensive man but I
do not think too good a scorer. Did not score against us. Andenr-
son will come in at guard and he is a fine dribbler and a good shot.
Hit three baskets against us. Adams, from Arkansas has that two-
handed jump shot. He looked great last year when Arkansas played
in Kansas City, but did not look too good against us. Can be played
close, - has to be in order to stop that shot of his. Menke, whom
