Dear Phog:

Thank you very much for your letter
enclosing the circular of the proposed new
organization. I am getting out a letter
to be circulated among our own membership
urging that we make our own organization
function efficiently enough so that a
second organization would seem to be un-
necessary. I can't very well say that
this looks to me like an attempt to promote
the Kansas City Tournament by means of
organizational activities which have
practically no other meaning than furtherance
of the Tournament itself. .

We were quite shocked at the sudden
death of Dr. Naismith, but I can imagine a
man of his vigorous personality would much
prefer a quick release to dragging illness.
He has certainly been fortunate in his later.
life to be able to see the fruits of his
endeavors and to enjoy these and the appreciation
which came with them from so many directions.
Basketball has certainly been a great boo to
many people.

In a few days I will be sending you a copy
of a letter which will be circulated among our
membershipe

Best of Luck to you,

Sincerely yours, .

Elurrs

EDWARD J. HICKOX
Secretary-Treasurer

EBJH:ic Basketball Coaches
