Dear Dr. Allens

It was a pleasure to learn from Mr. Glen W. Fawcett that the University
of Kansas Basketball Team is scheduled to come East for a series of games
about December 28th.

We should like nothing better than to have the team make its headquarters
at the Commodore during their visits to New York and suggest for your con-
_Sideration the assignment of very large and attractive twin—bedded rooms
each with private bath at the special athletic rate of $2.50 per person.

We should be happy to assign for the accommodation of the coach or manager
an attractive suite consisting of a large parlor connecting twin-bedded
room and bath at the same rate.

You may rest assured that should the Commodore be designated as your
headquarters, every attention and courtesy will be extended all the members
of the team while with us and everything possible done to make their stay
with us as pleasant as possible.

May we be of service.

‘Very truly yours,

THE COMMODORE ,4—
