decided with no interpretation, but would follow strictly to the letter
the rules as printed in the book. These.and other acts of yours caused
me to feel very uncomfortable when I was dealing with you. |

I had stated that I was not interested in playing in the
tournament, and it was only because the boys desired to ole thet I
calatgscas. I can assure you hoe that it will take more than that to
ever get me into another tournament where the Universi oy loses a large
_ sum of money and ‘the N.C.A.A. takes 55% of it. The 55% * lug” of: the
NeCeAch. is an Solracieue discrimination against the sport of basketball.
In no other sport that the N.C.A.A. supervises do they take more than
10% = swirming, wrestling, boxing, track and field.

In order that the average layman can see the unfairness of
this "ue" >» Let us anv a $5.00 bill the same.as the N.C.A.A. divides

Umar
First, the N.C.A.A.

 

hea. 10% of the $5.00, which is 50g. Then they divide the reanining
amount, $4.50, the N.C.A.A. taking 50% of that, which 4s $2.25. The
N.C.AA. “show! ots 50g plus aes 25, making a totel of $2.75. The other
$26 25 is divided ai ohteus eye, 2/18 going to each of the nad teams
which play two games in the Western and the Eastern N.C.A.A. play-offs.
That leaves the peteiolee 2/48 for the two teams in ie finals, such
as dcstova and Dartmouth. One-eighteenth of $2.25 is 123¢. Therefore,
Stanford «nd Dartmouth get three times 124¢, or 374¢ for pleying in the
final NeCeAeh tournament and the two previous games. Colorado, Rice,
Penn State, Kentucky State, Illinois and Kansas would Geran receive
2/18, or 25g foe playing two as, The most by wenoel wants get would -

be 374¢, and the least any school would get would be 25¢, and the

N.C.AA. would get $2.75. If that is nota "lug", what is it?
