Presidio, San Francisco, California.

I trust that you will be able to have him help you for whatever
you may ask.

It is indeed a pleasure to write a letter in your be-
half. IT am glad that you are well satisfied under the conditions,
and I sincerely trust that you will be able to earn an officer's
commission. It certainly does look as if many of the young
married men of America are going to be called into the service
right sway. All of us are in this war up to our necks, and I em
happy te do anything that will be constructive for the service.

I wish that you might have dropped in on us any time
this winter and had seen some of our red hot gemes. Bub, it-
seems as if none of these games ever cool off here in Lawrence.
For the last three years we have had double overtime games or
overtime games with the Aggies. Then we go out to Manhattan
and knock their ears down emphatically. But they have certainly
given ue a lot of trouble here. We didn't lose a game here, but.
the game with Denver was won in the last 30 seconds of pley and
the game with the Aggies in the last 15 seconds went into an over~
time and then we went on to win, but it had everybody limp and
almost lifeless. The people here at home say that it is necessary
for thom to bring their physician with them.

When you write hime please, give my kindest regards to
