Dear Mr. Strickland: ri’ v eS

I am writing you with reference to one Hyle Lownan who is interested
in going away to college. He is interested in Kansas University.

I feel free in giving this boy one of the best reccomendations that I
have ever given an athlete in the thirteen years tha I have been coaching.
He is an aggressive, clean living type of boy who has the desire to win.

I believe that he would make any football team in the country. My reason
for this hie is because he cmdo the things that it takes to be a
great player. He is a good blocker, sure tackler, passer, punter and 2
fine ball carrier. He played fullback for me the past two years. He weighs
around 170 and will weigh more as he natures a little more. He is also a
basketball, baseball md track man. He is at present playing on the town
team in base¥all amd is hitting L354. This past spring he hit 452% on the
high school ‘team.

From a scholastic. standpoint he will never be ineligible for he is a

_ good sedenk, The school that gets this boy will probably get his younger

brother who is a straight A student and en excellent football player as well.

If you have any questions regarding this boy I would be glad to answer
them for you at .ny time. Hoping the boy can get lined up at Kansas I remain,

Very sincerely

     

irector
