I am sure that we will have a nice crowd when you play here at Stillwater. Dean McElroy said that we did not have to have permission to open on the 9th of December, but I did have to get permission from Tulsa to change our dates with them on February 9 to make our series possible. Elwyn Dees was down here over the weekend and the depart- mental and faculty men he has met are certainly impressed with him. I am sure he is going to fit into our set up very nicely. We will send official contracts to Quigley and Jones for the games on:December 9, 10.

Allen, Basketball Coach, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Dr. Allen: I was talking to Cobb Burnside a few days ago in Oklahoma City and he said there was a possibility that you would mike a trip into the Southwest around the middle of December and possibly you would be interested in playing Oklahoma A. & M, College. As you know, we are going to have a new fieldhouse and I would certainly like to play you here, but we are not sure at the present time at what date we can get into our new building. Would you be interested in coming to A. & M. sometime in January? If so, what guarantee would you want? I would like to play you each year, as I believe we could draw a fine crowd here in Stillwater. I would » also be interested in playing you at Lawrence, if you would be interested. I had a conference with your Mr. Dees this past week and I believe we are going to offer him the position as trainer here at A. & M. I would like to have a letter of recommendation from you to present to my athletic board. Hoping to hear from you at an early date, I am ik Dy i HPI:1 Athletic Director.
