Dear Phog:

Congratulations on the outcome of the Kansas-Missouri
game last week. 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?

Kindest regards.

Cordially yours,
