Dear Sir:

I have been checking into the paessibilities df
takin over Hapold Long's jov next year and I find
that I can only make up to $15 per month. It looks
as if I will be able to have help from home to
about that same amount.

As you may see, this wili prove an insufficiant
amount. I am sincerely desirous of attending the
University of Kansas to get my degree and to part-

icipate in basketball for the University if my abe
ility warrants it. Harold told me that there ws
a possibility that you would be able to line up

some sort of job for he that would allow me to até
tend the University.

I shall be very happy to hear from you as soon
a is convenient so that I may complete my plans

fo the coming year.

Very sine

E. MeSpadden
