November 14, 1942.

Manager,
Hotel Lincoln,
Lincoln Nebraska.

Dear Sir:

Since your manager has gone to war and your
assistant manager also, I do not know to whom to write.
I cannot recall the name of the married lady with a family
who is on the switchboard in the evening. She has been
there for fifteen years or more. My purpose in mentioning
her is to identify myself. I have been coach at the Univer-
sity of Kansas for 25 years end we have alwayé stopped at
the Hotel Lincoln.

We will have six people from our Department of
Physical Education who will be in attendance at the Regional
Training Institute on Physical Fitness Programs to be held et
the University of Nebraska on November 19, 20, 21. Miss Ruth
Hoover, head of the women's department, Miss Joie Stapleton,
supervisor of practice teachers, Miss Jean Bliss, dance teacher,
Mr. Henry Shenk, supervisor of practice teachers, Mr. R. R.
Strait, swimaing instructor, and myself will desire aecommod-
ations.

I am wondering if you would give our peopl: in
this department the same rates that you give to our basketball
and footbell teams when they stay with you. Please quote uw
rates for three in a suite, rooms with bath, or single. and
double rooms. I imgine it would be more patriotic to double
up, would it not, if you are crowded? I will appreciate your

prompt response.

Very sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education,
FCA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
