September 26, 1944. Mr. Forrest B. Cox, Basketball Coach University of Colorado, Boulder, Colo. Dear Frosty: Your letter of the 18th was delivered while I was in St. Lovis dealing with preliminary details — for our game with Arkansas last Saturday. It was mis- — placed by the stenographer and has just been handed to me. Glad to know that Colorado will again be back on the basketball map this season, end hope you are fit enough to do your usual good job of coaching. Kansas State, Kansas and Missouri have some tentative plans to play in Kansas City, December 22 and 23, in a series of two double headers with a fourth team to be selected. We thought Shelton would be interested but find he can't come. fhe three Big Six schools have delegated Dr. Allen to act as chairman of arrangements, and I do not have definite information at this time as to what moves he has made to obtain a fourth team. With this letter I am mailing him a note telling him that you may be available. I should know in a week or so whether or not another team has been chosen and just what plans have been devised. You can expect to hear from me or Dr. Alien in less than two weeks as to a possible spot for Colorado in this series. In the meantime, I would like to know if you definitely are available for these dates, and if you Will hold them open until about October 7. Yours truly, — George R. Edwards, Coach of Basketball. copy to Dr. Allen
