Dear Phog:

It am convinced that there is a good story behind the
plans for the proposed national basketball tournament of the
National Collegiate Athletic association to be held here in
March. In what respect will these eliminations differ from
the qualifying tournaments used to determine the entries for
the National Intercollepiate tournament, scheduled here for
March 13 to 187 Will these two tournaments conflict in any
manner, or is there any possibility that they may be merged
into one? Naturally, to me, the idea of twonational college
tournaments in Sansas City is an intriguing one and seemingly
worth a good story. Can you enlighten me?

With Kindest Personal Regards,
