M. W. KELLEY P, oO. BOX185 AUSTIN, TEXAS October 31,1940 Dr. Forrest C.Allen, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. 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. Sincerely, 7,
