Dear Sir:

In an attempt to make the coming basketball season one
of Kansas City's most colorful and enjoyable, the Heart of
Americe Sports Association is extending your university a
cordial invitation to play basketball here.

We realize that most basketball schedules are arranged,
no doubt yours is completed. It is not our intention to try
to break into your schedule, but if you have open dates or
scheduled games in this section, we would appreciate an oppor-
tunity to present your team to the Kansas City basketball fans.
This could be accomplished by means of an exhibition game be-
tween either a college of your choice or a team of your caliber
selected by our association.

Several teams of your classification have expressed their
desire to play here and we are seeking a suitable opponent for
these teams.

Arrangements will be made for play in the Main Arena of
the Municipal Auditorium which has a seating capacity of 10,000
persons. Further information may be obtained by writing this
association at the above address. ~

 

ARTHUR LEWIS,
President.
