Mr. George Edwards
Basketball Coach
University of Missouri
Columbia, Missouri

Dear Mr. Edwards:

We're making an electric clock for our basketball
court and the qudéstion comes up whether we shall make the clock
read quarters or quarters and a half. Of course, we're planning
to make it read halfs, but I'm wondering what your impression as
to the attitude of the Rules Committee in eventually having the
game played in quarters?

Will you kindly write me at your earliest convenience
as I desire to pass this on to the electrician.

I would also like to ask one other question. What
is your attitude and what do you think the Big Six coaches’ attitude
might be in playing our Big Six games in quarters?

This would permit two additional time outs.

Very cordially yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recreation-
FCA: re Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach.
