Dear Mr. Allens

I think that the suggestion in your letter of May 6
is the best thing to do. I am turning over your
letter today to Mr. Stewart.

Last week I had a talk with Mr. Mike Brumbelow, bas-
ketball coach of T.C.U., and he said that they might
be able to give you one game but the guarantee would
be very low because basketball in that school has
run down until it would be impossible for them to
make you a good offer. However, he is going to have
a better club another year and he suggests that you
write Howard Grubbs, business manager of T.C.U. in
Ft. Worth.

Had you thought about playing Centenary at Shreve-
port on your trip? You will recall that Curtis Parker
is one of our Rules Committee Members and coaches
there. Shreveport would be enroute to New Orleans
from this vicinity.

Very truly yours,

PFA. Clan

W. St. Clair.
