Athletic Director,

U. 8. Naval Air Base,
Olathe, Kansas.

Dear Lieutenant Ely:

We have been endeavoring to purchase a cargo net for
our obstacle course. Feeling that you would know the
source of aupply of these I thought I would write you.
Of course, the University wants to purchase this, and I
realize that we could not get any from the goverment,
but we do have trainees here that would permit us to get
a priority requisition for this.

What I desire to know is - who makes them, what firm

or corporation? Our Navy personnel is also putting in
for one for their own benefit, but we desire one for our
civilians and enlisted men. I will appreciate very much
any information you can give me.

With all good wishes, I am

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
FCGA:AH Vareity Basketball Coach.
