“re Donaldean Maison,
Lyons, Kansas.

Dear Donaldean:

I em amaged that you would write me the
letter that you did. I councilled with you, asked you
whet your difficulties were and you told me, and I used
the long distance telephone to contact your friend, Max
White. He saw the gentleman who made the loan to per~
mit you to continue in school.

Not only that, but I definitely checked with
you and esked you in the dressing room if you got the money
end if everything was quite satisfactory. You told me it
wese Then you did not think enough of the accommodations
and courtesies that were extended to you to come in like a
gentleman and tell me your intentions.

Donelidean, I am not much in the habit of re-
warding slothfulmess and cowardice. I think you were
slothful because of the way that you handled the matter,
and I think that you were cowardly because you were afraid
te face the issue. Wo, Vonaldean, until you change your
ways I am not for rewarding misconduct.

You have got te learn that when you deal with
men you must conduct yourself as a man and not as a fellow
who skulks when challenges are presented forcibly to him
You had better get hold of yourself and straighten yourself
out, and then start from scratch.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Phyeical Bducation end Recreation,
FPCA:AH Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach. :
