January 2, 1946- Dr. Lawrence E. Pilkin 7025 North Washington S$, reet -gunction City, Kansas ; ) | Dear Dr. Larrys f am enclosing a carbon copy of the letter that I have written to Frank Myers, the ticket manager at Kansas State College, He will be at the ticket booth and I am sure he will take care of yous ‘= \ There is only one catch to this and that is if the Aggies would refuse to admit anyone other than students. Then, of course, they don't sell any tickets, but I am writing Frank Myers early enough to ascertain that. However, this rule has been in affect for quite some time and they have always taken care of us with a few special guests. I am sure nothing will come of it, so you expect to go unless you hear otherwise. Our team was not powerful enough against the Oklahoma Aggies because those boys down there match the G. Ie Bill of Rights dollar for dollar for good ball players. We had two ‘good ball players and they had eight, five regulars and three in reserve which are good enough to beat a college team where no special inducements in an athletic way are offered, as is the habit here at the University of Kansas. They just doubled on Black and Schnellbacher and our other three boys were not. potent enough to get the Aggy power, With all good wishes, I am Sincerely yours, ine Director of Physical Education, FCA:MF ‘ Varsity Basketball Coach.
