Mrs. French is the wife of Bud French, a returned veteran in the Navy who is studying to be a coach, and the brother of Bert Hall, who has also been discharged but has not ‘enrolled’ in a university yete So you see, I have several high recommendations concerning yous I want you to know how very much I appreciate a Missouri and 5 Purdue man referring these two fine boys to us here at Hansas,. You have been very generous in your praise of my son Bobs. who. is now a naval lieutenant junior grade on a flat top in the Pacific with the medical corps, If you will be kind enough to write to Albert Smagiel and Lee Storer, I would appreciate it very muche I would be delighted to have both of these boys with us and, if you think it would be helpful for me to era them, I will follow your advise in the matter. I want to congratulate you on your-fine service with the Marines. The Marine Corps has always been top in all arms of the service with me. We lost Lt. Te. Pe Hunter on Guam a year ago last July 21.

NAVAL AMMUNITION DEPOT HASTINGS, NEBRASKA - 29 January 1946 Dr. Forrest Allen Kansas University Lawrence, Kansas Dear "Phog"; This is a letter of business and yet in a way is one of pleasure on my part that I can even drop you a letter. Perhaps you remember me and yet the possibilitiés of that are slim. My name is Blaine Hibler, an old Southwest High in Kansas City man and from thereto Missouri, then to Purdue. I'm a Marine officer at Hastings, Neb. now but soon will be separated. Another | Marine and I are running the basketball team here and that is the main reason for this letter. We have two fine basketball players here and they are both from the Kansas City area. Their names; Albert Smagiel and Lee Storer. This Albert Smagiel is an ex Ward Hien boy, and is now a Pfc in the Marines. He is playing guard here for us and what I mean a sweet one, he can do anything with the ball and he has 1& head that can't beaten on the court. I've seen your boy,Bob, play and he reminds me of him the way he handles eur club. Defensively he is tops as far as he is now, and with a little of that coaching he'd get there he would be a hard man to beat. He's 5ft llin. tall, fast on his feet and rugged under the board. Lee Storer is from Central High in Kansas City, Missouri and stands 6ft. 14in and is the boywith the eye. He has a beautiful one harided shot that he can fire with either hand and I know you like that. He plays a smooth brand of bel. and + know would fit into a KU. system. Both of these boys are good students so that would be some load off of your shoulders. All they need is a little college Pete eTete and coaching and they would be fine ball players. If you are interested in these boys Phog please drop me a line and maybe we can arrange a meeting for them to come to see you. + aS RIE Ea Ee ee NAVAL AMMUNITION DEPOT HASTINGS, NEBRASKA My address is 4818 Roanoke Pkwy, Kansas City, Missouri after Monday due to my release from the Marine Corps on that day. Give my regards to my good buddy Charlie Black and tell him I'd like to see one real "hot" night soon. He certainly is playing nice ball this-year. I was with Jack Ballard just before he headed for the coast and I was so glad to hear he and Evans will be back next semester. Looks like another one for Kansas for sure--I hope so any way.

Next year Johnny will be right in there. He is fine, clean, intelli- gent, and a scrapper. Doubtless you have read about George Sauer being appointed football coach, Those people who have expressed an opinion look hopefully toward his bringing Kensas’to a higher plane than it has achieved here before. I agree with you that our football situation could be improved, It would help all of our high schools in Kansas.

In my estimation he is one of the most natural ball players that I have ever seen and I have seen several All-Americans play.

The last being against Soutmrest State Teathers College, who incidently has only lost one game this yeare His name is Henry Vaughan and he is from Ohio. In his Senior year in High School he was named as a forward on the All-State team. He is 20 years old and about 5 ft. 10 inches. He has heard a lot about your teams at KU and seems to be very much interested in going to some school that he can play a lot of basketball If you wonder why I am interested in this man going to Kanaas, well I am from Ellsworth, Kansas and am very much interested in athletics at Kansas University, I believe you know Emest Vanek, who was Freshman - coach with you some years back, he is also from the same towne If you would care to contact this man his address is.
