I am turning this M letter over to Mr. Howard Herbert who has charge of our Airfoam Sales and you will hear direct from him on the subject. You will be interested to know that we sell Airfoam in slabs to Ohio State University and they use it for their football players. They cut the pieces in whatever shape and size they want. This would probably be the best way for you to buy Airfoam. Having pleyed basketball for a number of years myself and also having hit the floor on many occasions, I am of the opinion that you have got an excellent idea here in putting Airfoam under your players' trousers to pre- vent hip injuries in case of a nasty fall in a game of basketball. © Cordially yours, Wrarg £. 5a Wenager lire Departments H.

With respect to the Rose Bowl tickets, at this early date you should write to the Tournament of Roses Committee, Pasadena, California. I am not sure whether they will accept applications for tickets at this time, but at least you ean get the full information. It is possible for me to buy a ticket or two through an agreement set up with the Conference schools here, so that if you cannot work out satis- factory arrangements with the Tournament of Roses Committee, let me know at the end of the season. We enjoyed having Bert with us this summer and feel rather complimented that he chose to come back here for his advanced work. You are going to have to do something to his back, however, or he is going to be an old man prematurely.

Please lay back about six good seats for me and advise me as to their cost and I will mail you a check.

Since the tickets will not be delivered to me until a late, I would be afraid to mail them back to Kansas. It would probably be best for me to leave his Megnet: at the "will call" booth. However, I shall await word from Arnold before making any moves. I wrote him last Friday and hope to have a reply from him soon; otherwise, I cannot hold the ticket. Cordially yours,
