Mra. A. 3. Ness,
‘Brazil, Indiana.

Dear Mra. Nees:

I find that I have failed to acknowledge receipt of this
lovely snapshot of Wayne. Thank you so much for the same. I am
going to have it enlarged and hang it in my office.

One of our former basketball captains, Charlie Black, is
now director of personnel for the Illinois-Owen plant at Toledo,
and Alton, Illinois, was Charlie Black's home before he entered
the University of Kansas. Certainly we could have arranged it
without any difficulty in having him transferred from West V
to Alton.

I know how Wayne loved the University, and he was much be-
loved here by all of his fellows.

Trusting that your philosophy and your faith are sufficient
unto the day, I an |

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
FCA:AH - Varsity Basketball Coach.
