I think it will but I want you to keep it confidential. yo The reason I wrote you about the rule book is bee cause I noticed in Jack Coombs book where there had been a change in baseball rules. It must be some special inter- pretation, or perhaps that which he referred to was not in- portant enough to make a reprint on. No, indeed, we haven't worn out the book. ‘le use it, end it is very helpful to us, and I thank you very much for sending it to us.

Allen Director of Physical Education University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Phog: ae too, am sorry that I missed you the after- noon I called. Although it is a matter that could better be discussed verbally than by correspondence, I would have taken up with you, the very unethical, as I view it, selection of two officials for the final N.C.A.A. game, and not one of them being an official from our area, Had the two officials been selected from the area of the competing teams, I wouldn't have a word to say, but as President of the Mid-Western Officials Associatign, I am heartily interested in the morale of the men serve in your conference and I don't think it did them any good not to have one of them selected. If you care to advise your $7.50 a week clerk how I feel about this, you may. There has been no change in the baseball rules since the 1940 book was published and we have not edited a new book on Interpretations. If you have worn out the 1940 book and the Interpretations, please let me know and I will gladly replenish your stock, My kindest regards to the Allen family.

Deax Ernie: The Chamber of Commerce is on their annual membership drive. Mike Getto is the captain and I am his lieutenant. Your name is on my list for a call upon you. ‘Por about 18 years I was a member of the Chamber of Commerce and paid them $25.00 a year for the privilege of their fine cooper=- — ation. When I was Direotor of Athletios I suggested that it would be a fine thing for Earl Falkenstien to be a member and for the Athletic Assooiation to pay his $15.00 fee, which is a special price for professors and faculty employees. The Chenber of Commerce holds itself ready to help in all foot- ball and athletic activities, and I would very much appreciate it if you could send me a oheok by return mail as this is supposed to ‘be a one-day campaign. Most business houses and organizations pay the membership of their directing heads, and frankly, I think this membership should be taken care of by the Athletic Association. At any rate, we would like to have you as a member of the Chamber of Commerce in Lawrenee, Kansas.

I got this conception from my experiences after the first World War. I came to the campus on September 15, 1919, and saw dear old Uncle Jimmy Green, who said, "“Well,Phog, I am glad to see you. I am glad to see you here at the University. I promised my boys when they went overseas that I would wait for them, and I am waiting witil they aera and when they get back my job is happily finished." When the boys went- away this time I was too old to enter ser- vice, but I thought I could render those boys a genuine service by keeping them informed as to the whereabouts of their buddies. Each month I have tried to appraise them of the activities and whereabouts of their Jayhawker friends. I have some back copies if you are interested in them.
