Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Phog: Have your letter of November 8 inquiring about the electric scoreboard, and we are just about ready to begin printing some literature in support of this product. During the past several months we have been testing the board and have found it to be 100% right and only after that find- ing have we decided to approve the model that has been work- ing night and day in our sample room during this period, and offer it to the public. We are going to ask a price of $160.50 for the board delivered, and the necessary cable for electric connections is quoted at 20 cents per foot, delivered. I want to emphasize the fact, Phog, that this electric score- board of ours is comparable to our competitors top quality. In other words, certain of our competitors offer a range of score- boards from about $50.00 up to $300.00 or more, and a compari- son of descriptive literature with our product indicates that the Medart scoreboard offers all of the features that others have included in their $275.00 or $300.00 models. Just as soon as I get some photographs or some descriptive mat- ter concerning our board, I will see to it that same goes for- ward to you. I hope you can see your way clear to approve a Medart scoreboard at the University of Kansas, as I know of no place where I would rather have this board doing a job day in and day out.

I see you are on top —- and here's hop- ing you stay there the rest of the season. Incidentally, I have had word from Chicago regarding the Basketball Rules Committee meeting and I note that headquarters for your organization will be the Contin- ental Hotel. I would like to have a convex backboard of the modified size and design installed in plenty of time for the meeting, and am wondering whether you, as Chairman of the Research Committee, can make the necessary arrange- ments with the officials at the Continental Hotel. Na- turally we would arrange to handle the actual installa- tion but would like to receive permission from someone in authority and connected with the Rules Committee. Will you please advise whether you can handle this for us at your early convenience so that I, in turn, can make the necessary arrangements and have the board on hand and installed prior to the 28th?

Allen, Director of Physical iducation University of Kansas lawrence, Kansas Dear Doc: I thought you might be interested in knowing that I am today writing Dwight Keith, Editor of Southern Coach and Athlete, ad- vising him that we will run three 1/3-pages on Goal-Ii in his publication, beginning with the April issue. We intend to keep an accurate check on the returns we got from this publication and if it looks like a good proposition, we may continue. At the present time, inquiries on Goal-Hi are coming in at the rate of about 25 or 30 a day from the publications we are using, and think this is exceptionally good. In addition to the inquiries we are receiving from publication advertising, a great number of inquiries are coming in every day as a result of the N.E.A. Convemtion, held here in St. Louis the latter part of last month. Kindest personal regards. Yours truly, FRED MEDART MA TURING CO.
