Mr. Albert E. Heas,

Haas & Wilkerson Insurance,
912 Baltimore Avee,

Kansas City, Mo.

Dear Albert:

I thank you for writing me and enclosing the letter from
Ralph Dugan. It shows this - that Dugan although he had to
struggle severely for an education he really attained one. Too
few young men remember long the kindnesses that have been shown
them by their oldsters. Your kindness to Dugan was appreciated
and it is evidenced by this prompt letter of his to you. Dugan
is a fine young man of sterling qualities and I know how deeply
he appreciated the proffered help by yous

I received a letter from Don Ettinger and he wes exuding
enthusiasm for the coming football season as well as for his
second year in the University. With your kindly cooperation and
what help I can give him from time to time, with other associa~
tions that he will mke while in the University, I feel quite
optimistic regarding his fine possibilities for the future.

There is one young man without a job that I consider es
fine as Ralph Dugan, and that is Remie Beims. I am sending you
@ pamphlet that was put out by our Committee on Recommendations
in the School of Education. Of course, in reality our Depart-
ment of Physical Education put this out because we are boosting
our own people, especially the worthy ones. You will be interested
to know that Steve Meade, in this pamphlet, is returning to the
University for one more year of the varsity football wars. He
lacked one or two hours toward graduation but could have made it
up this sumer for his teaching position. He is a 240=pounder
end has two years experience so should help the line somewhere.
I think Vie and Gwim are pretty happy since they lost Jacks and

Relph.

Now, back to Ramie Beims. His address is Atwood, Kansas.
I am writing him today telling him of your kindness in offering
your help end suggesting that he write you at once.

With all good wishes, I am

Sincerely yours,

: ‘Director of Physical Miucation and Recreation
FCA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
