Dear Phog:

In view of the fact that the
proposed committee is an honorary one and
I thereby assume you would not be expected
to get out and raise money, and in view of
the fact I cannot see how your serving on
the committee would jeopardize any activities
we might care to underteke in regard to a
Naismith Memorial, and furthermore, in view
of the fact this project is going ahead
anyway and I don't see how we could graciously
avoid participating, I don't see how we could
refuse to serve.

In other words, I don't believe
that participating on the committee would
jeopardize at all our chances of a field
house, and certainly we need one and must
have one. I wish they weren't so expensive!

Sincerely,

[I_B. ae
