Dear “Pog” s :

Sorry to keep you waiting so long for en answer to
your letter concerning bakketball dates.

Right now it looks as if 1t will be impossible for us

to play you between Christms and New Year's. However, it may
work out a little later that we could play at that time.

As I stated in a previous lotter, we are contemplating
pleying Missouri at Missouri on January 29th, and the January
date at Kensas City would fit right into that program. Would
Jenuary SOth date suit you?

If you think a double-header is necessary to draw a
crowd, what would yo think of the idea of getting a couple of
smaller colleges around there to play a game, or possibly Phillips
66, or somebody like that? Anybody who wouldn't require moh
money might be suitable. :

Y would be glad to hear from you again concerning this

z eg

F

matter.
With best porsonal regards, I an
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) PAUL D. HINKLE
