Our School will begin at 2:00 p.m. —e 15th and extend to
4:00 pem. August 19th. cere

 

 

If you would be willing to attend our School again and we could
get together on terms, we would like to have you appear first

on the program sometime Wednesday, August 16th, again on Thursday,
August 17th, Friday, the 18th and perhaps Saturday, the 19th.
There would be four appearances.

I have checked schedules of trains since I know that is a factor
in helping one make up his mind whether or not he can afford to
be away from his own work. I find that you could leave Lawrence
on Tuesday morning at about 6:30 aem. You would arrive in Kansas
City at 7:50 a.m. Leave Kansas City on the Rock Island Rocket at
11:00 a.m. and arrive in Des Moines at 3:00 pem. You can leave
Des Moines at 4:00 pem. on the Des Moines, Fort Dodge and Southern
interurban which you remember will stop at the camp. You would
arrive there at 5:40 p.m. Tuesday.

In returning, you could leave camp at 11:30 a.m., Saturday, August

19th and arrive in Des Moines at 1;00 Ppeme Leave Des Moines on the

Rock Island Rocket at 5:00 p.m. and arrive in Kansas City at 9:00
pem.e Leave Kansas City at 10:00 pem. and arrive in Lawrence at
10:50 pem.

We would be very happy to pay you for your part in the program a
fee of approximately $150.00 plus an allowance of $25.00 for your
expenses. The actual railread fare from Lawrence to Boone and
return is approximately $15.00. In addition to this, we would,
of course, provide you with food and lodging while attending the
school.

We regret very much that we are not able to offer you the fee that
we did in 1941. This is due to the fact that we have several
other men on our program this year and our budget just can't be
stretched as far. Our experience has been that our coaches pret er
to have several men rather than just one or two.

You have many good friends among the coaches in Iowa and we do
hope that it is possible for you to accept our invitation to
attend our Coaching School again.

Yours very truly, ;
