August 26, 1941.

My’ Ed Hall,
Sublette, Kansas.

Dear Eddie:

On my desk this morning I received a wire from
Otto Schnellbacher as follows: "Have decided to attend
Kansas State. Thank you for your consideration,"

He told me over the telephone last night that
he was coming up to be a Jayhawker. He certainly made a
kaleidoscopic change from feathers to furs Maybe the cool-
ness of the weather last night due to the shower caused
him to make a hasty change of raiment.

IT am sending you a carbon copy of the letter I
wrote the young man, and I mean it. Some fellows sell their
académic birthright for a mess of pottage.

We will be happy to see you when you come in.

With all good wishes, I am

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recreation,
FCA:AH Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach.
