- you immediately.

tren Would it be possible for you to attend our coaching school
and to give instruction in the field of basketball?

Would you be willing to come to our school for your expenses
only?

If you answer No. 2 in the negative, what would be your fee a
for attending our school? =

‘From reading the information above, you will no doubt come to

the conclusion that we are trying to operate the school as
economically as possible. The point is that this is our first

year in attempting a program of this kind and we are extremely
anxious that it be successful so that we can have some justification
for making it an annual affair. The association is willing,

Iam sure, to spend some money in sponsoring the program but for

the main part, we would like to have it be self supporting.

It will, therefore, be necessary to charge a registration fee
sufficiently high enough to pay for at least a portion of the
expenseSe

Our coaches here in Iowa are very anxious to have the opportunity
of attending your lectures in the field of basketball.

I hope, therefore, that it will be possible for you to be
with us August 18 to the 22nd.

 

Iam enclosing a self addressed stamped envelope for your
convenience in replying to my questions.

Very truly yours,
