May 25rd, 1941 Mr. Gwinn Henry - Director of Athletics Robinson Gym Dear Gwinn: I wish to recommend the following men for their Varsity "Ek" award in Baseball for the season of 1941. I have been especially pleased with the interest and endeavor of these men. ‘Sansas has faced the most difficult schedule under the most trying conditions. Practically all of last year's team either left school or graduated and the fact that Kansas did as well as she has done under, the most adverse conditions is a real tribute to the moral and fighting courage of these nondescript youngsters. At one time I had a line-up in which the entire infield had never participated either on the Freshman or Varsity team. it is with pleasure that I make this recommendation. ' Sineerely yours, Director of Physical Education and Recreetion-Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach. P.S. I am herewith inclosing a list of men who have been recommended to me by Ralph M. Dugan, freshman baseball coach. I desire to compliment Ralph Dugen for his untiring and enthusiastic work with these boys. i am Okaying his list in the hope that these boys will receive their freshman numeral award for baseball, 1941. Forrest ©. Allen.
