Dear Phog,

I am sorry I am late with this material for the
National Basketball Guide. Although it is past the deadline
I am sending it anyway, with the hope that you will be able
to use it.

I have been away from my work here and that is
the reason I failed to get the story in on time,

Very truly yours,
