“SAFE - PLAY” Football and Basketball Goggles BELOIT, WISCONSIN L, E. MEANS DR. DON T. RYAN ° : Athletic Director Optometrist Beloit College November 28, 1940 Dr. Forrest Ce. Allen oi prt “t + AY gZ University of Kansas Se Lawrence, Kansas : Dear Mr. Allen; I regret to learn about the lens breakage suffered by Marvin Sollenberger. These are absolutely the first lens we have had broken to date, and I am certainly sorry to hear about it. I may say that we decided to use Motex lens on about twenty orders, Sollenberger being one of them. We did this solely because of the insurance guarantee which sounded good to us. I may say that in all our later orders, and those before this, we used our case-hardened lens which has never been cracked or broken, and shall continue to make them up in this lens from now on. We are proceeding at once to make up for Sollenberger a new pair of basketball glasses with the case-hardened lens. You should receive them very shortly. We are also taking up the matter of the cuts from broken lens with the insurance company and you will hear from them or us very mortly. Please advise me on the use of Sollenberger's new pair . after he has a chance to tiy them out. Sincerely yours, 5a les Director
