Dear Doctor Allen:

Shortly after the receipt of your recent letter
in which you enclosed a carbon copy of a letter sent
to Mr. Louis Touton, I had a talk with him about
Camp Soso. After consideration of the matter he
offered me a summer at his camp with transportation
and expenses paid, but no salary. He did, however,
offer me a substantial commission on each boy I
could induce to attend the camp.

After some consideration and virtual assurance
of a loan in the event I am unable to get some boys
to go, I accepted his offer.

I had a long talk with my father recently and
told him of the low tuition rates offered to residents
of Kansas. He assured me that he would give the matter
serious consideration.

John Hallberg and I are playing on an average of
three games a week. Thus far, however, we have the
low winning percentage of about .40, but we have lost
three games by only one point. John has been scoring
an average of three baskets a game and looks much
improved over last season. —

May I again thank you for using your influence
to aid me in getting my job with Mr. Touton, and for
your interest in John and me.

Sincerely,

duwm Bo Srtiar
