I know that if you were to book one of these teams for a ome night stand at your playing field the expense would be any- where from $1500 to 2500dollars for the cost of the visiting team. I am arranging a ten game schedule on the road for some of these Eastern colleges so that it will be possible for me to brhng them into your city for a few hundred dollars. Exact dates will be available in a number of weeks. At the present time I would like to get your reaction and also if you would be intrested in booking these teams for the coming season, Awaiting your early reply.

C. Allen 801 Louisiana Lawrence, Kansas My dear Doctor Allen: Paul Moritz is going to China, a messenger of goodwill from the college students of America to the college students of China. If ever the young people of @ nation needed help these Chinese students do, and if ever a young man was qualified to give the needed help Paul is the lad. Paul hopes to attend the World Christian Youth Conference to be held at Amsterdam in August and then go on across Europe for a year in China under the auspices of the . International Committee of the Y.M.C.A. This will cost some hundreds of dollars for traveling expenses alone. In view of his wonderful scholastic record, his presidency of the Y.M.C.A, for the last two years, his all-round leadership both on this campus and among the Christian | young people of the nation, and because he is one of our own boys who commands our strongest admiration and love, I am writing to ask a few of my friends if they would be willing to send me five dollars to help pay this wonderful lad‘ts traveling expenses and enable him to give himself to the needy young people of China for a year. I know that you are tired of being asked for money, but I honestly do not believe you could invest five dollars in a better boy or a better cause. May I hear from you?
