. Dear Bill:

It certainly is good to hear from you and I was

delighted to know that you have really stepped up in the world because
the advertising game is a dandy and you have always been tops, in my opinion,
in this line,

| Well, Bill, times haven't changed much, The title is
still Director of Physical Education and Varsity Basketball Coach of the
University of Kansas. I am not coaching baseball now, My coaching record
is 20 out of the last 29 years here at Kansas and 7 straight championships
won out of 7 years at the Teachers College at Warrensburg, Missouri, making
27 championships out of 36 yanees

It is still good copy to say that I was one of the
founders arzid president of the National Basketball Coaches Association.
This other data is still good, although I am not now 6hairman of the
Pifth District NeCeA.A. I was president of the National Basketball Coaches
Association for two years. I was also founder of the Kansas Relays, which
is our famous spring classic here at the university. I also obtained, al-
most single handedly, basketball for the olympic games in Berlin, Germany,
in 1956. Iam still the oldest coach in basketball in the United States.

I think this Goal Hi will have a tremendous sale
in the postwar era. -I spoke a couple of weeks ago at Springfield, Ohio,
and the boys tell me there that they ate going to want a lot of them
for their play ground. I am speaking at Fostoria, Ohio, on March 25,
So I see a great revival in this sort of thétg for school play ——-
and public play ground,

Iam returning the letter that I wrote you on
June 24, 1941, 4! :

With every good wish to you and yours, Iam

. Sincerely,

Director of Physical Education,
