Municipal Auditorium

Kansas City, Mo. .

Our team expense for the trip was, I belive,
$302.99, This was smaller than my estimate
given you in Wichita as that was amount was
figured on the possibilities of maximum cost
of two games in Wichita.

However, I am out some personal expense
on my trip to Kansas City to attend the 5th

District Committee meeting on March 9. For
this trip I am submitting:
265 miles driving of personal
car @ 34¢ per mile ----------- $ 9,27
two meals 60% and 55¢ -------- 1.18
1 4

_ Inasmuch as the trip was exclusively for
N.C.A.A. Tournament business I cannot obtain
refund from the University. I would appreciate
if if this expense could be met by the N.C.A.A.
and the check sent to me personally.

I will be in Kansas City Friday noon to
see the western sectional games. I hate to
bother you with details of the coaches meeting,
but would like an opportunity to see you sometime
during the two days relative to a report for
the Research Committee. In this connection I
hope you will be able to bring along such in-
formation as you have regarding experiments in
basketball which might be incorporated in my
report to the coaches.

Your contacts with these subjects through
your Rules Committee Research have given you
a great amount of information which is closed to
mee In all probability you are planning to
submit a report to the Rules Committee covering
experimental work. I don't care to exhaust this
material before the coaches, but believe that
a digest of essential findings would be worth
while without robbing your report of any of its
importance.

You have so many other things to attend
to that I am not asking you to do any more. If
you can bring along your material I will work up

The World Series of Basketball
