Dear Joes

It has been our custom in the past few years to invite out-
standing seniors who are proficient in basketball to come to the Uni-
versity on the morning of our Relays, April 18, about 10:00 o'clock,
and work out with our varsity and freshmen basketball players in
Robinson Gymnasium. It is not necessary that you bring any athletic
equipment. We will check out equipment to you and you will have a lot
of fun ——- goals end playing informally from 10:00 to 11:50.

Our varsity basketball players will be dressed and will put
on a few drills, but nothing elaborate. You merely check out equip-
ment and go with the boys on the floor and have a lot of fun shooting
‘baskets, then take a shower, and you are ready for an _ start sand
the outstanding Kansas Relays.

We will have a ticket ready for you for the Ransan Relays
in the afternoon. Our purpose in having you here is to give you an
opportunity to meet our varsity pleyers.

I trust that at will be possible for you to come. Please
let ne hear from you at your convenience. |

If there is anything that I can do in the way of giving you
information or rendering you any service that _ should need, i+ will
be a pleasure to have you call on me. gadiae:

With all good wishes, I am,

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recreation
Varsity Basketball and Basetiall Coach
