was writtens I had several coaching eshools during the sumer and I ~ ~
laid your letter aside thinking thet I would answer it laters As my
mail increased, I find that some of the letters that I had expected to
answer imuediately were pushed back for other matters that demanded
prompt attentions After I returned to town I failed to get caught up
on my wpa eacraniss I am apologising for my negligences :

: . i ‘smaik Sak ta Baily, Mowe: ‘nt Weter. Witey
4s here and I believe he is learning © greet deal as he seems tremendously
de He has not said anything about desiring work. Neturally
we have so many boys looking for work that unless e fellow pesters us
about it we never worry a great deale I will make it a point to discuss —
some of these problems with Wiley. I hed forgotten what you had emphasized
until I again read over your letter todaye

I am chairman of the Community Chest drive, and this
with the YMCA drive,in addition to my ether work have kept me extrenely
busye I en leaving today for Toledo, Ohie to address the Ohio High
School Athletic Association in connection with their teachers conventions
On Saturday I will be in Chicago to watch the Minnesota-llorthwestern games
Then on the 7th I go to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to speak to the Wisconsin
Teachers and = Wisconsin high school football and basketball coachese

I omly mention these fects to let you lmow that I have
been much on the move most of the sumer and fall, and if there has been
any justifiable excuse in not answering your letter, it is because I have
not boon able to etay at my desk long enough to got’ the job donee

Some of the Phi Psi's ‘told me of meeting you, and I had
to confess thet I was one of those guilty souls who bad not acknowledged your
lettere I do want you to know that I appreciate your kindness very very muche

Again thanking you and Assuring you that 1 did not
knowingly show euch « eons tesy, be &: heotnee, in,

Fraternalily _—
