THE KANSAS CITY STAR

Febs 5, 1939

Dre Fe Ce Allen,
Basketball Coach,
University of Kansas,
Lawrence, Kansase
Dear Doctor:

Just a line to thank you for taking the time to straighten
out my back yesterday afternoon. It feels normal again for the first time
in several weekse

I enjoyed very much my visit with some of your boyse I picked
up @ load of them and hauled them down to the hotel where they were going
to have dinnere I thought they were an unusuably fine group and I couldn 't
help envying then. Few things in my life have I enjoyed as much as the
three years I played basketball for youe And my longing to play the game
at Kansas for just one more year seems to grow stronger rather than weaker
aw the years go One

I doytt think you are in a hopeless position. Remember in 1932
we were three down and two up at the half way marke Then we whipped everyone
in the conferencee If your boys can win their next four it looks as though
they will get at least a tie. Anyhow best of luck to you and all of theme

Next time Itm up I hope I can see & practice sessione
Sincerely,

Ted O'Leary
