Dear Doctor:

Thanks a million for your kind letter of
a few days ago and the enclosed clippings. McBride
probably did'nt like our going East; especially since
he is on the Committee. Actually our heart would be
in the Kansas City Tournament but we could not turn
down the group that took us in last, year*when the NC-
AA Committee was listening to Allen and leaving us out
in the dark.

I hope that we can do a good job back east
and that everyone in the middle west can benefit by our
games I surely would like to see some of those games
but with our own program and preparction to leave Monday
it is impossible to get away.

Sincerely,

Hddie Hickey
