Dear Jimmy:

I am certainly glad to have your letter of the 22nd
instant and I assure you it will be a pleasure to have you
here at the University.

I note that you have been drilling oil south of
Lawrence. That's good tough work and will really make a husky
man out of you. I know of nothing better for young men than

_this type of work to develope themselves and to make some money.

I'm in summer session here for the next six weeks and
I will be in Lawrence most of the time. Won't you let me
know when it is convenient for you to come up and I will be
happy to go over the whole situation with you with the view of
helping you. I will be glad to give you a job so that with the
money you have you can make your way through the University.

Trusting to hear from you in the near future, and with
kindest regards and best wishes, I an,

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and
Recreation-Varsity Basketball and
Baseball Coach.
