are concerned, is to add to the y Relief Pund, it is my belief
that the games scheduled for © om the 29th and 50th should be
moved to Kansas City so that the four teams could play on those two

nights under a double header arrangement.

Queries have gone forward to the managers of the two service teams
to obtain their reactions to such a plan. Unless I I misjudged Uinkle's
romarks mide when he was here r » - om sure he favore it.
Please give this suggestion your immediate consideration, and let me

know if you don't think that four games on the two nights in Mumicipal
Auditorium won't be beneficial to 11 concerned.

Yours truly,
(Signed) OHO. R. EDWARDS
Coach of Basketball.

P.Se Our Committees on Intercollegiate Athletios has ——
informed me that they will approve such contests.
