Your inforgant, an attorney of Wichita, is willing to believe statements
about the University of Oklehoma and its athletic department, coming from a man
he immediately accuses as being umreliable end a worthless braggart.

Referring to Mr. Allen's letters of February 9 and 10, 1942, we find that
Mr. Allen refers to the Burton Cossey case which in no way concerns the University
of Sensas. I made a complete statement of this case at the Big Six Conference
meeting held late in February. The athletic authorities of Oklahoma A. & M. College

tir. Allen refers to the Leyton case in his letter, and I wish to state
that 1 have before me a photosta copy of an affidavit, signed by Lester Layton
end by both his father and mother, denying the existence of « professional baseball
contract between Lester Leyton and any baseball clube :

t want to state thet it will require some other proof other than the u-
supported statenents of Mr. Alien or the statements from his attorney friends, who
base their information on hearsay and rumors, to make the University of Oklahoma |
