Dear Sir: s
It is possible that you are not familiar with the set up here at the university.

Our Athletic Department is known as the Physical Education Corporation. Then we

have ‘a Physical Education Department, Ordinarily, supplies bought through the_

Physical Education Corporation are purchased through Mr. Falkenstein of the Athletic

Department and supplies for the Physical Education Department are purchased through

state purchase requests, since state funds are used in these purchases.

However, the supplies we wish in this order are for use during the Summer
Session, for which we do not need a state purchase request. Please bill the sup-
. plies requested in our order to the Physical Education Department Summer Activities
and you will be reimbursed through our business office, The supplies should be
shipped through Obers, if that has been your customary procedure in the past. —

You wore wight in assuming that these supplies should not be billed to me
personally, but I am in charge of our Summer Activities Program at the university
and, after July 1, will be head of the Physical Education Department.

We want the three dozen 12AL soft balls for use in our summer program and
this is not a duplication of the state purchase order. . |

We should like the blue enamel on the raised letter "K". If you will send
us the exemption certificate on the 2 percent Federal Jewelry Tax when the order
is sent, we will fill out the certificate and return it to you. If you can send
us the items you have in stock at once and send the jewelry and other items as
soon as you can, we would appreciate ite

Sincerely,

Assistant Professor .
HS:VF ‘ of Physical Education,
