Dear Dan:

I am sending you a letter in confidence from
Adolph Rupp, the coach at the University of Kentucky. This
is regarding one of their star freshmen, Hallie Hudson.

If you care to use any part of this letter in
clinching the point that I struck at in proselyting in
basketball as well as in football, then here is evidence of

such a thing.

These letters are a regular thing, and not an
exception, but coming so close on the heels of my statement
regarding in football and basketball I thought
it might help the rabbit brothers who think I am only hitting
at football te show this as a reguiar thing in traffie of
athletes.

This boy has nothing. He needs board, room,
tuition, beoks, clethes, medical expenses, and what have yous
If a coach does if for one he is forced to do it for the others.
Then multiply this amount that it tekes to take care of this
bey by the number of men on the first squad, and you have the
answer for basketbell.

Tappreciate your kindly interest and attitude “n
all the things that I have presented to you.

With every good wish, I am
Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Edueaticon and Recreation,
PCA: AH Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach.
