sincere regret to you for the wmfortunate incident that happened
on the football field at a time when Kansas had essumed the mastery
of Missouri, both mentally and physically. I wanted to compliment
you on your ability to take a very light and less capable football
team as far as experience and power are concerned, end convert it
imto a real threat and a joy unspealimble to the Kansac fanse

The reason that I an writing this letter is to
ecamiserate you on having your hopes blasted by such en wunfortumte
occurrence. You certainly were in the ball game and were definitely

have donee But naturally this thoughtlessness on the part of one a
man caused a state of mental depression and a situmtion in which our
boys could Yet stem the tide of this catastrophe.

I am umable to extend these wrde to you persomily
due to the fact that I am leaving for Cleveland, Chio, at noon to-
day to meet with Le We St. John of Ohio State, and Olsen, coach of
basketball at Ohic State, as well as with Floyd Rowe, of the Cleve-~
land public schools, on a mtional basketball rules interpretation
