DearBobby:

I have subscribed to The Sporting News for you. I know how you
like baseball, and since The Sporting News has gone for basketball
in rather a big way this year I am asking Mr. Hugo G. Autz to send
you the copies on the All-American selection, which has Charlie
Black in it, and a story written after wo played St. Louis Univer-
sity in St. Louis, showing Ray Evans and Sclmellbacher's fast
combination, with. rather an interesting write up.

I believe you will enjoy the paper as I know what an avid reader
you are of that sheet when you have an opportunity to get hold of
ite. | po

Mother has been wanting me to come Bast to Eleanor’s graduation,
but it is nigh impossible for me as we are right in the throes of
changing over in the physical conditioning set-up that will find us
robbed of all our leaders corps students who have helped us, on :
account of their craduation and going in the Army or going into
some other type of service that will take them away from the cempus.

Therefore, I am sure that I will have to stay on the job and be
here when that transition takes place.

I have got to run over for an sppointment now, but wanted to drop
you a short note about The Sporting News. I hope you will enjoy it.

Affectionately, Your Dad, -

Direotor of Physical Education,
FCAAH Varsity Basketball Coach.
