Dear Doc:

I have been away from the office during the month
of August and just got the accumulation of mail Saturday.
This morning I duscussed with Veenk the possibilities
of a basketball meeting this week end. He said the
directors are polling the conference now about either
a meetings of the directors or the basketball coaches or
both.

Itelative to your question about playing two games
at each place, I believe that will be out of the question
because of the 48hr. limit put on all Navy trainees. [I
am pretty sure we cannot get around thay rule as the Pre
Flight at Iowa City has had to observeafor their baseball
team. Here are the possibilities as I see it, a round
robin playing only one game on a trip, or disresarding
a Big 6 championship and playing a limited number of
conference games, filling in with teams intthe near vicinity
of our respective schools. My team will be made up almost
entirely of V-12 boys.

Our athletic council is having a siete * ae sees
part of this week to aaeuee among other things the above
matters.

I will write as soon as I learn anything.
Best wishes to you and yours.
