Dear Dr. Allen; Thanks very much for the order for two dozen pairs Kelley Knee Pads. Glad to hear that you are giving our new pad a trial. Believe this pad will make your team look pretty classy. We have intentionally used flesh colored pelts so that the height of the players will not be broken,+- in other words - the players will appear to be larger and taller. As you instructed, we are sending you a dozen pairs now and will hold up the other dozen until we hear from you again. Note by the paper that you are taking a whirl at Madison Square Garden this winter. Best of luck to you.
