‘Doar Doe:

with reference to our peabencsss iu at the stadium before the
Homecoming Game last Fall about one Red Pemberton, I saw Red
at the Denver Nugget- Frueheuf Trailer game last night.

 

As you probably know, hea: is only a junior in high school this
for I am certain that you are familier with his athletie record.
[ He seems to be rather intrested in coming to Kansas, but there
is no need to go into that now.

However, your friend, Grady Skillern, has another boy, Peawl wooed:
who is playing his third and final year. If you are fam

with the Skillern coached teams, you are aware of the fact that
he turns out very few three-year men.

Paul was an All-State player last year, and he shows promise of
repeating this year. As the enclosed clipping will indicate,
Paul is a slow starter; but, he gathers speed as the season rolls
along. He has the sincerity and the competitive spirit. which
reminds me to a great extent of Ernie Vanek. Both boys and e#s
specially Red are better than the average base ball players. Red
is an out fielder while Paul playes first base. Paul has been

approached by Henry Iba of Oklahoma State but he is not. very
anxious to attend that school. I learned from Red that Paul in-
tends to write to you at the close of the cer season.

Thus, Doc, to a certain extent, you have the fact about tHe two
boys. If it is agreeable with you, I shall approach Paul, and
if my finances permit and beringunforseen incidents, I shall
make tenitive. i to bring them up for the Kansas Relays this
Sprite. |... 2

Yours sincerely,
