Dear Mr. Dole:

As Chairman of the Researeh Commit-
tee of the National Basket Ball Rules Committee, I am endeavor-
ing to do a bit of research work on exceptionally tall men in
the various National Collegiate Districts of the U.S.

Would you kindly list for me the
names of all men in your district whether members of your con-
ference or not who are taller than 6 ft. 3 in.? I especially
want those over 6 ft. 5 in. and better. Will you please give
me the school that they are affiliated with and their year in
college as far as competition is concerned?

I would appreciate your writing me
at once giving the names of the outstanding tall men that you
know of and then write the other schools that you have heard of
having tall men for definite confirmation.

I will appreciate youwe early coopera-
tion.

With every good wish, I am

Sincerely yours,

Representative 5th Dist.
Nat'l Collegiate Ath. Ass'n.
