Dear Bill:

I find that I have failed to answer your good letter
of the 13th instant and I'm sending you correction on the attached proof.

Bill, I believe that it would be well to make this read
"Doctor Forrest C. Allen, Director of Physical Education, Varsity Basketball
end Baseball Coach of the University of Kansas". If you want to leave Baseball
out, it's O.K. by me. ‘

I noticed that I won Championships in twenty one or twenty
seven years of coaching. I coached thirty four years and won twenty seven
Championships. I imagine this statement was concerning my coaching at the
University of Kansas, but in my all time record, I won twenty seven out of
thirty four Championships. You can handle that as you like. We tied for the
Championship again this year, you know.

Why not say that Doctor Allen was past President of the

Nationa] Basketball Coaches Association and for years was also Chairman of the
Research Committee of the National Basketball Rules Committee of the United
States and Canada and also Chairman of the Research Committee of the National
Basketball Coaehes Association. For nine years I was Chairman of the Rules
Committee of the Fifth District N.C.A.A. I am not now Chairman of Basketball
for the Fifth Digtrict N.C.A.A. but I have coached longer than any Basketball
Coach in the United States in any college that I know of and I have won more
Championships than any coach in any League in the United States. Of course,
Bill, I'm not boasting about this but you wanted the facts and these are facts.

My kindest regards to the Medart family, both personal

and commercial.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and
Recreation-Varsity Basketball and
Baseball Coach.
