Mere Karl Klooz,
Bursar, —
University of Kansas.

Dear ir. Klooz:

The enclosed Purchase Request No. 26316 is for
rental of ten acres owned by Professor and Mrs. De Tie
Spencer, which we are renting in order that our intramural
program may be carried out this spring and next fall.

. Before negotiations were uade with Dr. Spenser
I took up the matter with Chancellor Malott and Mr. Reymond
Bichols, and obtained their approval for the department to
rent this property. Due to the fect that the Buildings ani
Grounds Department is doing extensive grading on our intra-
mural fields it is necessary that we use this Spencer trast
for softball and football fields.

imve been made with Mr. C. G. Bayles

Arvrengesents
to out and harvest the hay on this land during the sumer,
for which he will credit this departnent.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recreation,
Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach.
