December 2, 1944. 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.
