Dear "Phog": I appreciate very much your letter of the 14th, relative to treatment for Bob's ankle. I did not like to bother you in the matter, but having once had a bad ankle myself I know what it means and Bob has had a little trouble for two or three years, although not serious. I was afraid he would be a little hesitant about coming around for treat- ment and I thought a word from you would be helpful. Anyway, I am most appreciative. You will not receive this letter until you are back from your southern trip. I trust your team gets to clicking and you have a successful trip and also a success- ful season. With kindest personal regards and the Season's Greetings, I am Yours sirwerely, x - RTO: KMF Return to DIVISION OF ENGINEERING Oklahoma A. and M. College Stillwater OKLAHOMA A. & M.

I just finishea covering the trial of Tom Graves which ended badly from The Star's standpoint. I have been watching your season so far with great interest and was disappointed at the Mis souri set-back though fearful of it ‘as I imagine you were. I know from experience how hard it is to win at Columbia but I never Have been able to figure out why that im is so. I saw the K-State game at Lawrence which was certainly a thriller. after ten minutes I figured you would be out in front by twenty points by the end of the game but aS it was I think you will agree that Kansas was fortunate to pull it out. What I particularly enjoyed was Bob's play. You know: I have always been very interested in Bob because he has much the Same sort of background as I had. I mean spending hours tossing an old ball at a backyard hoop and watching many great Kensas players as a kid. And if you will notthink me immodest (because [I think Bob is a great player) I think he plays much the same style of ball as I did and with much the same attitude. Because I work every night except Saturday and an occasional Friday I'm afraid I won't get to see another game. But I'll drop in for a practice session some Saturday afternoon and say hello. By the way I'm in pretty good Shape through keeping up my handball. I weigh only about five or six more pounds than I did when in school. B&B Agains thanks for your thoughtful lettere Give my regards to all the members of your family and to you and Bob best of luck in the games to came, Lid, Ted O'Leary Sincerely, DR. WARREN G.

Dear Dr. Allen: Annually, the Dayton District Osteopathic Society of Physicians and Surgeons invites all the coaches and their assistants, and athletic directors from this district to one of our meetings. This meeting is one that has to do with athletic injuries, their prevention, or some phase of athletic work. _ cast year Dr. H. V. Halladay spoke at this meeting. We had over one hundred guests present. It is our desire to put on a similar meeting this year, and would like to have you as the speaker of the day. This meeting will very likely be held in February of 1939. We would like to know if you will be our speaker and what would be the approximate cost to the district. We hope you can see your way clear to be with us at this meeting. Fraternally, Warring Oo WGB/G c.W. MOORE Commissioner First District Burlington F. L- VAN SCOYK, CHAIRMAN WILLIS W.

DALE M-COY, Secretary Burlington, Kansas November 30th, 1958 Dr Forest Allen Kansas University Lawrence, Kansase Dear Doctor Allen:- As you no doubt realize the fact that our profession has had an awfull jolt, and has been placed at the bottom of the heap, by the Supreme Court of the State of Kansas. We, the members of the Osteopathic profession of the State of Kansas are going into the comming legislature and have our profession placed back to the top, where it belongse We are asking the Legislature to clarify our law for us and we find the opposition, out numbering us, both in men and in dollars. Therefore, we must go to each D.O. and ask for his support. We realize the fact that you are a success, in your own right, and yet you are a menber of the osteopathic profession. I do not feel out of the way in asking you this same question that I have asked many other D.0se Doctor, can we, the members of the Kansas Osteopathic profession count on you for 500,00. towards this fund?? We do not want to close our hospitals in the State, or do we want to be compelled to move on towards some other State that has not had the trouble that we have had. We hope that this favor asked of you, for your and my profession will not be taken too lightly. Thanking you in advance. I am yours. Aubin £27 President, KeS.0.A.

KANSAS, THE BIRTHPLACE OF OSTEOPATHY Kansas State Osteopathic Association (Incorporated) A DIVISIONAL SOCIETY OF THE AMERICAN OSTEOPATHIC ASSOCIATION Executive Office, 721 First National Bank Building WICHITA, KANSAS MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE Clay Center, Kansas. November 4, 1938 Dr. Forrest C. Allen, 801 Louisiana St., Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Dr. Allen: We hope you are digging in a little deeper and telling your friends and patients just what the Gleason decision of the Supreme Court means. It is a set back in our fight for professional rights but it is also the spur which will urge us on to the fight for a better law and a better understand- ing by the people of Kansas. Doctor Allen, we need you in this coming battle. The last legislative seesion found the Chiropractic forces di- vided by Allopathic promises to a few who thought they could qualify as physio-therapists. Let us not be deceived into dividing our forces. A united front will be a prime necessity. Numbers will be important for the Kansas Association must speak for all D.O.s instead of for two-thirds or even three- fourths of those in the state. There is a lot of work to do and we need you to help. You need membership in the Kansas Association for sev- eral reasons. You may not be chosen as the 'guinea pig' for a test case, but if you should be, it would be much easier to fight with the KSOA in your corner. The Western Union and Montgomery Ward Companies have recently changed their regulations so that Osteopathic Phy- Sicians may practice under their Employees Compensation sys- tems. However membership in your professional societies will be a prerequisite. The WPA may now allow Osteopathic care for those on relief but your acceptance as a staff physician will depend upon your professional standing judged by your membership in your professional societies. Herewith is an Application blank which you should fill out and have signed by two members who can end will recommend you to the trustees. The dues vary with the year of practice and should be sent with the application to Dr. Hanna. Make your check to the Kansas “tate Osteopathic Association and help us win the battle for Free Choice of Physician. Yours fraternally, MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE, Lawton M. Hanna, D. 0O., Chm.
