amount to more than 28 tickets. To be perfectly frank with you, I gave
those boys 32 tickets for them and their own large families, and in my
opinion they deserved them. The other boys on the squad, with oar ex- /
ception, were i living in this state wi th parents who naturally waquld
desire to go to‘the gamed. The University of Kansas has a freshman team
that as desired to see the varsity in action, and being in such
close proximity to the game it took no stretch of the imagination to see
that Ba ther the. Athletic Association would be forced to purchase tickets
for them at A oeiee or else they would have to pay for them themselves
or be denied the right to see the game. |
Wie had no unpleasantries over the ticket situation, but

our whole attitude in all of these administrative matters caused me
to feel seiaremaccd in asking you for any relaxation of the rules.
You will nite éhat I went to the Auditorium end got the tickets, pre-

team was drawing quite a crowd, But you failed to be generous enough “Gof
to eer to give these boys the additional tickets for their efforts
in drawing this crowd. The bo hie not asking for tickets to sell or
: to make money from as so many of the, star athletes do when they get
extra tickets. But they were ie for them for tieik Folks, and me
was bent upon getting them because they were ene tron to them. Our boys

came from areas close to Kansas City. The boys of the other teams came

“from great distances, hence 28 tickets might be sufficient for some of

them,
