Dear Friend Forrest: . :
I have been trying for some time to write
you this long over due letter.

First of all, I want you to know that we
are all mighty proud of this year's team and
especially their coach. I think that you and
your team have done a remarkable job. You ~
know it is not easy to be out manned as we have
been this year and come back and give the really
outstanding teams a scrap as they have done.
So, will you please express to the team my thanks
for the old Kansas fight and spirit? I know that
it will carry them on to victory over Missouri.

Don is coming along in great style and I know
you would have been very proud to see him manipu-
late that pivot shot which you were showing him at
the house the other night. He did it beautifully
and his coach, Mr. Wedeen, is very enthusiastic
over his prospects. He really thinks that you are
tops, but of course we all do - as a matter of fact,
we think the whole Allen family is tops.

Please give our best wishes to all and we
hope to see you before very long.

Sincerely yours,
