Reduced fares on the basis of FARE AID ONE HALF for the round trip on
the "Certificate Plan” will apply for members only and dependent members of
their fattilies attending the meeting of the National Association of Basket-
ball Coaches to be held at Chicago, Illinois provided 100 certificates are
rresented shoving the purchase of one-way tickets from points from which
the one-way fare is 67 cents or more. The arrangement will apply from the
following territory:

The following directions are submitted:

1. Tickets at the normal one-way tariff fare for the going journey
may be bought on any of the following dates (but not on any other date.)

2 Be sure when purchasing your going ticket to ask the ticket agent
for a certificate. If it is impossible to get a certificate from the local
ticket agent, a receipt fer fare paid will be satisfactory and should be
secured when ticket is ] is purchased. See that the ticket reads to the point
where the convention is to be held and no other. See that your certificate is
stamped with the same date as your ticket. Sign your name to the certificate

or receipt in ink in the presence of the agente

3. Call at the railroad station for ticket and certificate at least
thirty (30) minutes before departure of train.

ae Certificates are not kept at all stations. Ask your home station
whether you can procure certificates and through tickets to the place of
meeting. If not, buy a local ticket to nearest point where a certificate and
through ticket to place of meeting can be bought.

5. Immediately upen your arrival at the meetings, present your certi-~
ficate to the endorsing officer, Mr. A. Ce Lonborg as the reduced fare for the
return journey will not apply ‘less the required number of certificates is
presented and validated.

6. No refund ef fare will be made on account of failure to either
obtain a proper certificate, or on account of failure to have the certificate
validated.

 

 

7. Wo. your certificate has been validated, you will be entitled to a
return ticket via the same route as the soing journey at one-half of the
normal one-way tariff fare from place of meeting to point at which your
certificate was issued ur to and including April 6, 19326

‘Members are urged to use the railroads which, considering safety
speed, comfort and convenience, provide a service not equalled by other
‘Sheds of transportatione these who travel to the convention by other means
cannet be classed as certificate holders. This works to the disadvantage of
those in attendance who have paid the regular one-way fare with the hope of
securing one-half fare on the return trip, in that it lessens the possibility
of obtaining the necessary minimum number of certificates to qualify for the
reductione

The special fare has been authorized at our request. It is only
fair that we should reciprocate by maling use of the railroads.
