Dear Phog:

I certainly enjoyed seeing you in Kansas City and I think
you did a marvelous job in training your team for the Finals.
They gave a good account of themselves but I guess, in the
long run, were not quite husky enough to contend with the
big Indiana boys.

Incidentally, Phog, I wonder if you would be kind enough to
send me a play which we could reproduce in the booklet we publish
each year called "Basketball Hints."

Yours very truly
