Dear Coach McCord‘

On the sixteenth of Yetober you wrote me asking
that we send the book "Better Basketball" C.0.D.
On October 18 my secretary Miss “snes wrote you
stating that if you would send a eheck for $4.10
I would autograph the book and mail it to you.

. This morning I am in receipt of your letter |
dated November 1 in wich you state th&& a week ,
ago you had sent the money. Now in the meantime
we have sold all of the books we have on hand but
this past week we ordered an additional shipment
from MeGraw-Hibl Book Company in New York. These
should be here any day. If I had one on hand nd.
would send it and let you remit later because you
state that you are in great need for the book.

Your letter has never arrived here. Check up
oan your checkbook and your correspondence and
determine if possible what happened. You could
stop payment on a check or money order that you
have sent] I suggest that you make an additional
check and stop payment and write anyther one.

This new moniker "Brog" is a new one, Change
that "r" to an "h" and you have it. Or if you want
to delete the first letter and leave "h2 in their
you' have another one. Silent "ph" I have gotten
also, but # get them all ways,2Max. Thanks for
your compliment regarding the coaching school at 5
Boone. I enjoyed all of you fellows a lot.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
Varsity Bgsketball Coach
