Mr. *Phog" Allen
Lawrence ,Kan.

Dear Mr. Allen:

By way of introduction,I will say that I used to coach in
Kansas and wanted to attend one of the coaching schools that you
had charge of this summer but could not because my little boy
was ill.

I wonder if you could send,me a summary of the details that
you use in your defense? I am very much interested in it and thot
possibly you might have some material left from some of your
coaching school courses that you would let me have cheaply.

Our practice will begin — next week so if you could
supply me with that I would appreciate it greatly.

I might say that Conger and I used to play each other up in
Smith County. If it isn't handy for.you to let me have this, it
is perfectly OK.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely yours,
