Dear Mr. Allen:

We have recently completed a new physical education
building and are now in the process of purchasing
necessary equipment for its operation.

I am weiting you specifically to ask that you please
give me the benefit of your experience relating to
basketball bankboards. We are trying to make a deci-
sion regarding the merits of the glass, steel, and

wood backboards from the players! and spectators' view-
points.

If you will be kind enough to write me your impressions
I shall appreciate it immensely.

Sincerely yours,
Fe. . eer x
