Dear Mr. Allen:

T am writing you in regard to a cartilage in-
sary oe right knee. After seeing the doctor I
would like to have your advice on whether you think
it would further injure it if I continued to play

basket ball.

k

I injured my knee about the first of December

and have not exercised it strenuous since. It does
not ain me and when I run it annearently does not
hurt it. 1 was eo wondering if you thought a
bandage of any sort would heln. I am now wearing
an elastic bentacat

The besure is on the outward side of the knee.
The doctor said it was a disarrangement of the ex-
ternal condyle.

1 would apperciate it very much if you would
tell me what you think about it.

| Wishing you luck with your ball team I remain

Sincerely yours

ames G SKidm oKe OR.
