Dear Coachs

By all means, change those national collegiate finals
all stars. I am a little enbarrassed that my error
left off your son, He is the guy who beat us at
Wichita when he took that ball away from Mesch with
us crowding you, 35-37 and possessing the ball in
your end of the court. <A corking player.

I seem, also, to have mixed you up a little on this
proof.business. Whether-they cut the article or
not, I want to see a proof of it. They sent me one
last year and I was able to catch a couple of errors
besides add the news that Jack Garnder had succeeded
Frank Root at Konsas State. So lI think it's a
good deal for that reason. Makes everything air

Coach, it's none of my business how they rum the
guide, but the Hast isn't the top circuit any more.

We all lmow that. I think that front position should
be passed around, Let the Big Ten have it one year,
the Big Six the next, the Pacific Coast the next, etc.
Also, how many readers of the guide over the nation
gives a darn about those Zastern tables, four pages

of 'em? Very few folks care what the Columbia-Penn
scores were back in 1912, I think they should either
be eliminated or cum everybody's should be
carried, I don't want to crab, and what I've written
here is just between us R,beccas, but just because

the editor is an easterner is no sign the other sect-
ions of the nation shouldn't get a break, I get so
tired picking up the guide year after year and Seis
reading, on page 1 or 2, why Ralph Morgan thinks the
coaches' all-star team is a flope Now. I feel bet=
ter already to have gotten that off my chest. Been
wanting to say it for years.

I am enclosing the picture. Bruce has as!ced me about
it twice and I mailed one to New York, but apparently
it is lost. How about complete records of the teams
