Mr. Gwinn Henry»
Direocter of Athletics,
University of Kansase

Dear Mr. Henry ¢

Iam sending you a copy of the minutes of the Finance
Committee which was approved by the Athletic Board, as
follews: —

"Phat baseball as a conference sport be discontinued this
spring, but that we have a baseball team to play local
teams, such as Baker and Rockhurst, and conference toais
whenever possible to do so without much expense."

From my conversation with you, I believe that you
misinterpreted the motion. This leaves it open to play
the Kansas Aggies and Missouri, according te the discussion
while I was present at the Finance Committee meeting. ‘You
will recall that you left the Finance Committee conference
early to attend a meeting in Topeka that day.

I did not hear from you.or anyone else further con-
cerning the meeting, so took it that the baseball team was
to play « schedule of games. Am I correct in assuming that
when you wrote all Big Six teams that Kansas would not play
any conference schedule that this was hardly in conformance
with the notion? i :

I have been corresponding with Don Faurot on the premise
that we were to play a curtailed schedule. I will be glad
‘to have a conference with you at your early convenience.

Very sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recreation,
Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coache
