Dear lire Hoovers

Our University of Kansas Basketball Team is playing
Fordham in Madison Square Garden on the 28ths also playing Tenple
in Philadelphia on December 30.6

On the moming of the 3lst, we desire to go to "ashington,
DeCe and visit as many points of interest as possible during our
short one-day stays I especially desire the team to see, in addition
to the other interesting place, the FeBele Building and its workingse

We have written our Senior Senator from Kansas, Arthur
Capper, asking if his secretary could communicate with your secretary
and make arrangements to take our boys through the Buildings —

There will be 15 or 17 in our party, and since these students
at the University are in the Schools of Business, “ngineering, Law
and Medicine, I would deem it an especially valuable experience in their
lives if they could be shovm the courtesy that wes extended our football
team this fall, when they pleyed George “ashington Universitys It was
one of the highlights in their eastern experience, and I desire the
same for our basketball groupe :

We have great confidence in the organization and the many
splendid things that you have accomplished We will consider ita
great favore |

Very cordially yours,

Director of Physical Fducation and Recreation
Varsity Basketball Coach
