University of Kansas

Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Dr. Allen:

I notice. from the Madison Square Garden 19);2-)\3 college basketball schedule
that you are playing Fordham University there on December 28th, 19))2.

I have made 16 mm motion pictures for a great many of the teams that have
played in Madison Square Garden in the past eight years and would like to
offer my services to make one for you-of your above-mentioned game.

Among other coaches I have done work for are Nat Holman, Howard Cann,
Paul Hinkle, Frank Keaney, Howard Hobson and Roy Hawley. I refer you to
any one of them as to the:results I obtained of their games and of the
valuable use they have made of these motion pictures.

Most of them have 1,000 feet of 16 mm film made which covers approximately
90% of the action of the entire game. The only loss being necessitated by
the occasional changing of magazines in the camera. Your total cost for

this 1,000 foot motion picture is $100.00. As an alternative, you may have
an 800 foot motion picture made which will cover about 75% of the action of
the game at a cost of $85.00. Should overtime periods be required, these
usually take 200 feet of film and the cost of each overtime period is $20.00.

If you are desirous of having a film made I would appreciate hearing from
you as soon as possible as it is difficult to-day to get 16 mm film and I
would have to have sufficient notice in order to make arrangements for the
procurement of film.

I am enclosing herewith an informal contract. Should you want this film,
please try and get it back to me with the information noted thereon at your
earliest possible convenience.

Wishing you lots of luck for the new season, I am,

Very sincerely yours,
