December 5, 1942.

I have delayed answering your good letter of the 2¢th
ee ee ee ee eee
have taken so much of my time.

ing Boots Adams, Jr., he has not reported as
yet for basketball, and in my opinion it is dowbtful that
he will, I am not very long on taking on a trip a boy whe
reports late for practice. I have eleven men from the
football squad now who are reporting.

Boots, Sve, wes on my freshman basketball team here
in 1921 and I would have been glad if his son had come out,
but I learned that he only reported semi-spasmod itt 7 for the
football squad, and that is ouphatically against ry principles
to pemit a fellow to continue basketball on that schedule.

I am delighted to know that you had such a fine turn-
out when you opened your Service Tournament, partioulerly

 

Very cordially yours, y

Director of Physical Education,
FOA: AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
