Dear Sirs

Norman Meeks once told me Dr. Forrest Allen is aswell
fellow", Taking that as an introduction I am going to ask your
advice on straightening up a little misunderstanding.

When Norman was studying advertising he became in-
terested in our revolutionary skin toughening method of
athlete's foot prevention. He was so enthusiastic that when
he went back to K. U. he got the approval of Trainer Nesmith
on a trial order of Onox for a 60 day test. Results are so
outstanding with this product that we make a prepaid shipment
subject to approval test. If it is not found to be better
than old methods and 0.K. in every way, then you pay nothing
either for the Onox or the mats.

For some unknown reason Nesmith has not answered any
of our letters and we know nothing of results of their test.
You will realize, of course, that we have been to considerable
expense in making this shipment and in providing the sponge rub-
ber foot-mats. Naturally we are a little jealous of our reputa-
tion and would at least like to have a report. If Nesmith
understood it was a straight donation of the Onox and the mats
we will accept it that way although you will see from the signed
copy of the order that it was apparently on our regular terms -
60 day approval test.

For your information, I will enclose one of several
letters that we have written Nesmith.

Now, Dr. Allen, let me say a word to youe Basketball
coaches pretty well over the country have written us very highly
complimentary letters on the condition of the feet of their
players where they use Onoxe Many of them have told us that
benzoin toughener was unnecessary and that Onox kept the feet in
better shape than benzoin. Regardless of the outcome of the
Nesmith matter, we would be very glad to have you make a test
with your basketball players. I can truthfully say to you that
