Dear "Doc";

The dear old Navy soon will start mustering out
some of its members and I'm hoping to be out in time to

So, in anticipation of returning to my job ror //
Mr, Mac, I'm brushing up on my rules, nomenclature etc...
Will you tell mé-wnere~I-tan-procure a copy Of your book,

"Better Basketball?" I've seen only about a dozen games

Best regards to you and Mrs. Allen,

Sincerely yours,
