Dear Dr.Allen: We surely appreciate your nice letter in regard to Joe Giannangelo and are sure that he would make us a very fine trainer and. stockroom man if we were able to employ him. However we are very hard pressed for jobs end find it necessary to use some of out athletes in that capacity. It is not a very satisfactory arrangement but it seems to be the best we can do. Of course the boy gets some valuable experience slong with the mistakes. I know that I would personally be glad to have Joe here for we need some one like that and I anpreciate your information about him. I will be glad if we ever get to the place where we will be able to use some one who has had the training in that field,it will certainly relieve me of that responsibility.

Dear "Phog"-- The cool fall winds are beginning to blow, and I am reminded of the fact that 'ere long that heavy red sweater will come in very handy. Perhaps the manufacturers have been harrassed with labor troubles or perhaps the sheep themselves have been on a no=pro- duction basis--at any rate, my sweater has not come as expected. I am not at all alarmed by this failure, and will continue to love my alma mater until it really does get cold and I have nothing to ~ wear duck hunting. This is a good excuse to write to you, however, and to wish you, and your colleagues in the athletic dept. the best of luck and the most successful of years, The newspapers téll us that Ad is expecting an improved team this fall--I hop e so. No one could reasonably expect a worse one, I'm sure--and no one can reasonably expect any revolutionary change in this years team such as would make Notre Dame a bit apprehensive over their coming series with us. You are to be individually complimented on your activities during thé summer by which you are no doubt prepared to inaugurate the new dept. on a high standing which will reflect credit upon’ you, the students, and the University.

He requested that we send you a complimentary copy of Turner's "Personal Hygiene," which we published a short time ago, and accordingly one was mailed to you on July 27. If your course is to be one semester's length, and is to in- clude a thorough treatment of all the important phases of personal hygiene, then this book will fill your needs very _well indeed. Probably, also, every professor likes a text ‘that has an air of being addressed directly to the student, and speaks in language students understand and enjoy reading. Here Turner measures up again. In fact, we think you will agree, when youexamine it, that it isn't lacking along any line at all which is necessary for the making of a good textbook. We always appreciate comments on our books, and would like to have you write and tell us how you like it. If it impresses you favorably, try it out in your classes this fall.
