November 27, 1944.

Lt. Commander A. H. Buhl,
Nevel Training School,
University of Kansas.

Dear Commander Buhl:

T want to report to you that we have our basketball backstops
up in a very favorable looation. We used the concrete tennis
 gourts, by using a large upright which serves as a post for the
attachment for the tennis net, and which also supports the back-
stop. Ve put them across the center line and this in no way
interferes with tennis, and yet it provides untold opportunities |
for basketball pley in all seasons of the year.

I want you to know that I appreciate yolir thoughtfulness, as
well as the gift. Some time when you are down near the stadium I
wish you would glance at them and see to what good use they are
being put. They are juet south of the west end of the stadium.

Very sincerely yours, .

Direstor of Physical Education,
PCA: AH Varsity Basketball Coach.

Dre le lis Boughton,
Cramer Chemical Company,
Gardner, Kansas.

Dear Dr. Boughton:

I am mailing you the basketball shoes that I
promised yous I believe they will fit, and I know they will
wear forever and forever.

I know these are over ten years old, and my
prediction is that the youngster will wear them for a long,
long time without showing any wear. Now it may appear that
they will feel heavy to him, but they are not heavy because
all the weight is on the bottom of the shoes and the uppers
are light. Tell him to wear two pairs of sox and they will

do the job.

I am liking your product immensely. The #5
hair oil is my favorite, but there is just one thing on the
after-shave lotion - I detect some odor, it seems to my un-
trained olfactory sense more of a bichloride of mercury
This does not manifest itself in Irving Hill's shaving lotion,
if you know what I mean. This is a friendly suggestion.

 

With all good wishes, I an

Sincerely yours,

; Director of Physical Education,
FCA :AH Varsity Basketball Coach.

Mr. Robert Burnett, Principal,

Dear Mr. Burnett:

fhe University of Kansas Extension Division hes
a fine teaching film, made by the Bastman Kodak Company, en=
titled “Basketball FPumdamentals". ‘The rental, as I understand,

hello for mes ae ne a eee

 

At 2330 we leave by bus for Ardmore AAF where we play our 4th basketball game of the
Season, o far we haven't even been pressed, Some of the officer players are flying
over, it being only a 40 mile hop. Two more have quit the squad, so my chances im-
_ prove as the season progresses--and elsewhere it-has hardly begun. The Army-Navy
game comes on when we leave so unless someone brings along a portable radio I'll just
have to read about it in the papers. JI have played in the last three games.

Iam enclosing a PILOT, yesterday's edition, My contributions are checked, Next

week the editor, Sgt. Dana Blocker, will be on furlough so Sgt. lilax Stokesberry and

i will have more work to do. The basketball team will leave Monday afternoon for

Denton to play North Texas State Teachers so one "writing" day will be interrupted.

Also, classes are going to be started Monday in radio code and aircraft identification,
So, if I know what is best for me, I had better get in them, Pre-flight will be

rough for many wash out for failure to pass courses, Santa Ana, Calif., pre-flight /
and Maxwell Field, Alabam, pre-flight have been closed and only,SAACC will remain open, _
So Joe Starke and I may be together yet. Only the Central AAF T aining Command,

thus, will remain. They will probably close the Eastern and Western Commands Fields.

I went before the CO, Capt. Lagather, to talk about my bond purchase in the 6th War Loan
Drive. Since I take out a $25 bond each month I was more than doing my share, He is

the finest CO I will have in the army. He got us lined out on these jobs, did away with

a lot of chicken stuff, He referees the basketball games, is a phys. ed. grad. from Minne

The Schmidt boy, who collided on his motorcycle with the mule, didd yesterday morning of
-a@ blood clot on the brain, ‘The boys in the trainee section gave $225 to Mrs, Schmidt,

925 to buy flowers, I knew Duane quite well since he was in my flight; he was a fine
fellow, One mercenary, tactless, dumb trainee rushed to Mrs, Schmidtts home to tell her
when Duane died, to ask if he covld accompany the body back to Reynolds, Ill, In that

way he covld miss shipping to SAACC Sunday, and stay here where he is living in town with |
his wife. Mrs, Schmidt is an expectant mother, Yesterday morning a field bus ran into

a mule on’ the highway, turned over in the ditch, Some one should be sued, and hard, for
the range law does not apply to Grayson County. No one was hurt in the bus aacident.

I received a fine letter from Jerry Richard who is in the infantry at Camp Hood, Texas.
Should we have a basketball trip down south that way I might work a pass with it and
visit Jerry. Our section first serg-ant said we WO.LD NOT cet six day Christmas furloughs
unless we lived at Denison or Sherman, even if we had private transportation home, Always
a chance for a change in ruling, but not likely, It has been pretty cool the past few
days, and it is rather dark yet when I wake up about 7:30. I'll get to see what the
end air force chow tastes like at Ardmore tonight. With the navy at McAllester the
last basketball trip their food was little better, but 90% of their enlisted personell are
colored. The niggers load shell’, do other manual labor on the reservation, an ammunition
‘dump, seven miles square, They surely have two fine recreation halls there, one for the
havy and one for the marinese At present we have basketball trips scheduled for Denton,
Texas; Ft. Worth AAF; Paris Jr, College, Paris Texas; Harmon Gen. Hosptl, Longview, Texas;
Norman NAS; Red River Ordnance, Texarkana, Texas; Waco & Blackland AMF, Waco Sirk. | |
Also, if I am here long enough, I will make trips to Frederick Okla, ppl eae |
at Dallas, and perhaps games with TCU, SIMU, Baylor, or some other college téatml ~~.“ -
I plan to go to the Cotton Bowl game between Okla. A&M and TCU at Dallas New Years. I
have already seen TCU when they were trounced by Oklahoma U. So the Aggies, with
Bob Fennimore, shovld triumph. I might take a three day pass--I'm entitled to one.
_ anyday--and go to three day basketball tourney at Okla. City, It is just too much work

Civilian Employee Here With Eight Sons
In Army Is 10 Percent Plus Bond Buyer

Have you met your sixth war
loan bond quota yet? Machine
Shop foreman Edward O. Brown
has more than met his! What's

more Brown and his wife, residents

of Sherman, have two four-star

-service flags hanging in their win- |

dow, are looking for an eight-star
flag and may need still another
star before this war is over.

A 10-percent-plus bond man all
through the war, Brown buys a $50
bond every month and a $100 bon
each war loan drivé:

Two of Brown’s
ert, 29, and. Cpl.
in France; and Pfc.
and Pvt. Edward @,Ar., are infan-
trymen in N. J. and Va., soon to
ship overseas. Brown’s stepsons are
M/Set. J. W. Sterling, 28, stationed
in N. Y., S/Sgt. Abury Sterling, 26,
France, Pvt. James Sterling, 18,
Camp Wolters, Texas,. and Sgt.
Cheston Sterling, Ashburn general
hospital, McKinney, Texas. The lat-
ter, holder of the Purple Heart

  

 

award, was wounded on the Nor-

 

Edward O. Brown
mandy beachhead D-Day plus 13

 

when he lost the use of his left
army from mortar shrapnel and
received bullet wounds in his left
side and his right hand. Charles
Sterling, 16, who is in war work
making shells for Hardwicke-Et-
ter expects to don Khakis in a year
and a half.

The patriotic Shermanite, whose
eight sons, sportsmen all, have yet
to see Lake Texoma, says a grand

j} outing and fishing trip is planned

when. his boys come marching
home.

The 53-year-old Texan, resident
of 611 N. Walnut, Sherman, and a

| Marylander by birth, began work-

ing in his present position as fore-
man of the machine shop and the
hydraulic and cable dept March 6,
1942. He was formerly employed
as grinding dept. foreman for
North American Aviation, Dallas,
and prior to the war he worked in
the cotton gin manufacturing busi-
ness for Dallas Cotton Mill, Sher-

|man Manufacturing Co., and Hard-

wicke-Etter, Sherman.

leaves tomorrow for SAACC to be-

eatly weeks in July at PF boosted

Married to a Charleston belle in
August, 1941, Al hopes someday to

Two A-Ts Spend —
Precious Shells
For 2 Bunnies

By A/T BOB BOCK
We bade farewell to 36 of our

| brothers Monday who entrained
|for SAACC and at the same time
| welcomed Back CLARENCE
|STAMPFER, HOMER STAHLE
and CECIL DAVIS, who, with bags
packed, were boarding the train
|when T/Sgt. JAMES ADCOCK
told them it was a mistake. Reluc-
tant to go, these three believed
they were having to fill in as al-
jternates, not realizing 38 A/Ts
| had left the field.
Practical joker of the week:
HERB BANGERT, wearing M/Set.
VILJO SALO’s flight jacket, ord-
| ered the new group of trainees to
fall out with helmet liners one
night last week ,marched them to
the orderly room and told them to
wait while he “went-to get the CO
at the day room.” The Sheppard
| Field mewcomers, two months
army-wise, think everything is
| jake here, see an improvement in
chow. They think they have a bet-
| ter deal than those sent to Altus,
'Okla., and Pampa, Texas, except
| that the latter were being granted
|furloughs despite their being four
ijmonths shy of the required half
| year service.
| JAMES PITTS says, “Food will
win the war, but the question is
| how we'll get the enemy to eat it.”
... Cage star PETE CALDWELL
hit the bucket with a bite-size
piece of cake and was invited into
Mr. Nieman’s office. Caldwell, ex-
| Navy man, surprised-the mess of«
| ficer when he said, “Yessir, I’ve
had to eat beans for breakfast.”
| Trainees agree Mr. Nieman’s food
conservation program is successful,
| Speaking of waste, ED CHAP-
| MAN, LLOYD NICHOLS and RED
| MADDEN squandered a box of
| hard-to-get 12-guage shotgun shells
Sunday, bagging a couple of bun-
| nies, a wild “dove” and a buzzard’s
| tail feathers. Red-eyed Red’s aim
