Mr. Karl HH, nde
. Manager

Dea: Karl:

I galled the Colonel's office at the ROTC and find
of course they went the shoes, but like all Army matters they
move & lot slower than is anticipated. The OPA order had to
be signed by the Colonel, then the order has to go through the
Bursar’s office here at the University, the to the State
Business Manager's office at Topeka, and then it will come to
yous

_I know they want those shoes without fail, but you —
will understand that I am not even a buck private in the rear
venkse Iama civilian. I know the order was signed and has
gome forward, so hold them, Karl. The equipment was
ordered from other firms, so any bids on the other stuff you
cen release. We bought the cheaper pants at the price you
quoted in yow letter, 90/7 per pair.

Thenk you, Karl, for your cooperation. Be sure to

keep an eye on a bladder for the Push Ball because we want to
use it in the Army and Navy program only. :

Sincerely yours,

Direotor of Physical Education,
PCA:Ali | Varsity Basketball Coach.
