Dear Phog:

After I talked to you the other day in regard
-to Gene Anderson, Ig ot in touch with Gene's father and even though
several colleges have contacted his son in regard to attending their
school this fall, I feel very confident that Gene and his father,
Mr. Carl Anderson, have a decided leaning towards Kansas University,
end I feel confident that when you come out that you will be able to
secure definite assurance from Gene that Kansas University is the
school that he is going to attend.

I also talked to Mr. Anderson in regard to
Gene's army status and He advised me that as yet there had been no
information that would cause them to believe that Gene would have
to enter the armed services in the near future, and taking into
consideration the fact thst the war is over now, I have my doubts:
that they will take a boy with ane height into the army e

I feit stemusity bad to hear that Mr. Quigley
has beet ill, but I am gled to know that now he is on his way back
to recovery. Wham I talked to Mr. Anderson, and told him that the
reason that Mr. Quigley had not been out to see him was due to the
fact that he wes in the hospital, he told me that he had seen the piece
in the paper about Quig's illness and knew thet was the reason he
did not get out to Salina to see his boy.

When you get in Salina, I want you to contact
me immediately and I will go with you down to the Andersonts or if
you think it best, I will make an appointment for you and you can
eontact Gene and his father alone.

Looking forward to seeing you sometime
next week, I am
