Dear Mr. Allen:

On arriving home from Oklahoma this evening, I was happy
to receive your letter and to know that Hillyard's has
received the contract for refinishing your floor.

When I was in Lawrence, my understanding was that we
were to start on the floor on November 24. Possibly you have
set this date up to November 21. I know Hillyard's will
keep me posted as to when I should be there.

_ Mr. Allen, I am sorry but I left the drawing of
Hank Ipbats floor with rHank. I am getting in touch with him
and asking him to send me this drawing, and, as soon as I get
it, I will forward it to you. The A. & M. colors are, as you
know, black and orange. I made the sidelines for his court
three inches wide in black with orange-colored round dots the
size of a silver dollar and 15 inches apart. The two inch
lines were decorated the same with an orange dot the size of
a 50¢ piece. We put in the center of the floor an "A & M."
This made a very attractive floor, and I know we can finish
your floor just as attractively as A. & M.'s court.

Thank you again for your letter. You will be hearing
from me, or seeing me, in the next few days.

Yours very truly,

\
