Dear *Phog":

Mrs E, S. Liston of Baker University
at Baldwin, Kansas, has been contacting me for
@ long time to take charge of Distriet 23 along
promotion lines in the National Intercollegiate
Championship Tournament, and organization problems.

i have sort of felt that this organiza-
tion is ‘not to my liking and perhaps detrimental
to our National Association of Basketball Coaches.
Perhaps I am wrong and am. writing you for your
confidential opinion on the matter. :

I am not adverse to working on anything
worthwhile in basketball but want to be sure of
myself as to the importance and real value of
this new organizations

Very truly yours,

Ben 7 Van Alstyne

Coach of Basketball
