Dear Ray:

After I returned from your very wonderful banquet at Bur-
lington last night I called Edwin Browne, our University publicity
chairman, to find out what happened to the mats. He is oheoking
on that with his secretary and is to aall me back. I have asked
that he write you so that you would know that I earried through

my part of the detail arrangements. — ;

The publicity chairman of the University has all the inform-
ation and it goos out from that center. We make a request of hin
for sending out the mts, and the liaison apparently broke down »
over there. But I did want you to know that we had followed through.

It was great to meet the many friends at Burlington and also

to meet the fine athletes of your tom. It was a very onjoyable
evening. ue

Sineerely yours,

Direetor of Physical Education,
PCA :AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
