LAW OFFICES TINCHER, RALEIGH & CUSHENBERY PHONE 62 J.N, TINCHER OFFICES AT CLYDE RALEIGH MEDICINE LODGE, KANSAS HUTCHINSON, KANSAS LEAFORD F, CUSHENBERY ‘ MEDICINE LODGE, KANSAS Bill's father was up to see me this morning to talk about the prospect of Bill coming up te you. As I told you his parents can send him to school, but he has never been away from home before, was raised here in a small town ‘ where there is little excitement, and they do not want him to have too much idle time on his hands. For that reason they are very intent on him having some part time work his Freshmen’ year at least while he is getting settled, and I agree that they have the right idea. If you can arrange some kind of work for him so he could earn $25 or $30 a month I can guarantee you that you will have the boy next Fall. Understand, I am not trying to dictate to you about this, nor am I saying you will not get the boy anyway, but I thought you would appreciate knowing how the family felt, and this is a sure way of getting him. I am sure he will come to the Relays on your invitation and you can then have an opportunity of talking things over with him. I can't tell you hew much I enjoyed the opportunity of getting acquainted with you and trust that some time I will run into you again. With kindest personal regards, I am, incerely yours, A f . Cushenbery LC :MC P.S. Bill played football here, but intends to devote him- self exclusively to B.B. in college which should give him lots of time to learn the game.
