Dear Dr. Allen:

Greetings to you! I presume that I will see you at the
convention in New York but I thought that I might make a tenta-
tive arrangement with you for next year prior to the convention.
I have the following dates in mind for our program in Chicago;
starting Saturday, December 20th, we will play every Saturday tte.
night up to and including the 14th day of February, 1942;-with
a lapse of ohne week. Starting February 25rd or thereabouts we
intend to conduct an East-West basketball tournament scheduled
so as not to interfere with NCAA or any other collegiate tourna-
ment. The object will be to pick two teams to represent the
West against two teams to represent the East, in what we hope
will become an annual affair in Chicago.

I know I can count on your cooperation but I really want
more than that, I want your advice. I have not asked anyone but
you for advice because in my opinion you're the one man who is
best qualified to render suggestions regarding the advancement
and progress of our great game.

Hoping to hear from you with the next few days, I remain

Very sin

Y,, yours,

AM: DP
