Also in the mail today we received an additional ball which is a composition cover ball, but we do not have any instructions regarding it.

Mr, Jim Addison, Order Supervisor, | Lowe & Campbell Athletic Goods Cos, 1509 Daltimore Ave., Dear Jin: We have on hand two archery "practice" targets \ which were bought from your firm last year some time, costing 97290 eache They have never been umwrapped. Pour of these targets were ordered at the time, and two have been used. We find that these targets ere not the quality that we need for our archery classes. < am writing to ask if it would be possible for you to give us credit for these two new practice targets on the purchase of two new “tournament” targets. I shell appreciate hearing from you at your early con- venience. — Sincerely yours, Director of Plysical Education and Recreation, PCA: Ali Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coachs i ie We have on hand two Archery practice targets which were bought last year some time, costing $7.90 each. They have never been unwrapped. Four of these targets were ordered, and two have been used. Miss Stapleton says they are absolutely no good for her class work -- that tournament targets are needed. These will cost $1125 each. Would you suggest that e ask Lowe & Campbell to take back these new practice targets that we have now, and give us a credit on an order for two new tournament targets (we would have to pay them approx. $6.70 if oa would make this wxntonae) ? or -- do you think we might reserve these for summer use, and buy two new tournament targets for class .work this spring?

MILLER, Pusticity Director 1509-11-12 BALTIMORE AVE., June 23, 1942 Dr. F. C. Allen Physical Education Department University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dr. Allen: Our re-string department advises us that the two rackets sent in to us to be re-strung are not worth the ex- penditure of $1.60 each. These rackets are quite old and the frames are in such a weakened condition that it would be impossible to pull the strings tight without completely breaking through the wood. Please advise us if you would like to have us ship you two new low priced rackets to replace these. We are holding the two rackets, your property, until we hear from you. Our sug- gestion would be that you instruct us to destroy them rather than go to the expense of having them mailed back to mo as they are absolutely useless.

Dear Jim: I notice in your fall catalog that the largest Medicine Ball you list is only 12 inches in diameter. I realize it would be impossible to make up any at this time on account of the shortage on leather, but I an wondering if you can’t cast about and get some of the larger balls from some other sources from stock on hand. We have several of the larger ones that are nearly worn out, but since we have both ee eee ee ee feel that the Ser ball will fit into the service training better than small one.
