Mrs. Dean Nesmith,
Yates Center, Kansas.

Dear H

Thenks for the letter, and I am glad to kmow that Dean is
planning to be home July lst. So far as I am concerned, if
he desires to stay three months more and has the ooke from
you, it will be o.k. with me. |

We will be mighty glad to see Dean when he does arrive.
Things are not the same without him in his habitat < the
treating room and the gymasium, I kmow he is having a srand
experience and it will be delightful to have him back and have
him tell us about the ragamffins of italy. What a heritage
we possess, ani how often and how little we appreciate all the
blessings that we have! —

I am glad that you have written Mr. Quigley because I believe
Mr. Quigley is going to take over Dean's full time when he re-
turns. Dean did eo swell job for us in helping out during the
energenoy with the Nevy rush.

With every good wish to you and your good folks, I am

Sincerely yours,

Direotor of Physical Education,
FCA: AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
