Our district includes Iowe and North Dakota. I wonder if you lmow the North Dakota persomel well enough to give me some information on that. I lmew that you would imow standing men in your Missouri Valley Conference, and we would know the outstanding men in the Big Sixe It would be up to us to in» quire concerning the stand-outs in Dakotas ca I would appreciate it if you would also tell Rollie Willdams outstanding men, but I presume that they will go _ under the Big Ten, although they are in our district. I would. / be perfectly happy to see them considered along wi é ; John, what I thought I would do as chairman would be to report to John Bumn, and use my office as the clearing houses Abl this stuff would come in to me and I am just augnenting my information by asiing you to give me your engle regarding the northern part of the Mifth District and your Missouri Valley Con- ferences With all good wishes, I am Very sincerely yours, FCAsAH Chairman, Fifth District, NeCeAoAe
