Dear Phog:

No doubt by this time you have heard that I have been selected
as Director of Athletics and Head Coach at Yankton College,
Yankton, South Dakota. I feel very fortunate in having been
chosen for this position. I wish to thank you at this tine
again for the letter that you wrote to Dr. McCorison, the
president of Yankton College, for I feel that it did much in
helping them make their final selection.

Yankton is a typical college town. It is a-little larger
school than our Kansas Conference schools are, but a little
smaller than the Central Conference schools. It has the
usual college groups and organizations. We have a nice
athletic program with good equipment. We have also a very
effective intra-mural program which has been in force for
the last few years.

I have always had the desire to ask you for a personally
autographed picture of yourself to hang in my office. I

have always admired Dr. Naismith's picture that hung in

your office because I knew that you were a great admirer of
his. JI would like to have your picture hanging in my athletic
office for the same reason. If there is any eXpense con-
nected with such a favor I would gladly reimburse you for

the same.

If you are ever in the vicinity of Yankton I would consider
it a privilege if you could drop in for a visit.

Hoping this finds you and your family in the best of health
and with kindest regards to them all, I am

Very cordially y,ours,

Was of glade.
