Dear Doc:

We are making a slight change in our ROCKET
train schedule operating between Kansas City and
Des Moines next Sunday, and I am enclosing two of
the schedules as I recall you spoke of using this
service with the basketball team for the Drake
game December 29.

The round-trip coach fare from Lawrence to
Des Moines is $9.49 and if this service mets with
qo your requirements I will be glad to make seat
i reservation on the ROCKET for your party.

Please note this service operates into the
Grand Avenue station instead of the main statian
at Des Moines and it is necessary to take taxi in
order to reach a downtown hotel.

With kindest regards and best wishes, remain

Yours traly
