Mr. Leaford F. Cushenbery,
Medicine Lodge, Kansas.

Dear Mr. Cushenbery:

I appreciate very much your kind letter of
March 23rd. I am writing at once to Johnny Corrigan, a K.U.
graduate, coach of Pfeister and also Bruce Holman who played
@ great geme for Kansas State this year. Johnny and I are
good friends and he told me about Holman, but Holman did a
lot of shopping down in the Southwest Conference and finally
wound up et Kansas State. Now, it would be furthest from my
mind to even insinuate that anyone at Kansas State ever
offered Bruce Holman enything But a fine education. Jack
Gardner never does anything like that, so Mr. Tucker says.

| , I em asking Johnny Corrigan to use his
friendly influence with this boy, and we are hoping that the
University can present its educational claims strongly eough
to have him choose the University as his alma mater.

Thanking you for your kindness in thinking
of wn, and assuring you that we think Bill Yorayth in onkx,
I em

Very sincerely yours,

| a Director of Physical Education and Recreation,
FCAsAH Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach.
