Merrian, Kansas.

Dear Harold:

Yes, we are planning on some games in Kansas City.
I have written Rockhurst for the 12th of December, but have not
heard from then.

We are also planning games for the 15th and 1éth of |
 ‘Becember, and the 22nd and 25rd of December. Kansas may not play
in the 15th and 16th games, and yet there is a possibility they :
might. But for the 22nd and 23rd we will have Missouri, Kansas
State, Kansas, perhaps Colorado, and some other team as Colorado
ean only play one game.

For the 15th and 16th - neither date is closed en-
tirely, but Oklahoma and the Iowa Seahawks will play one game,
and we may have Wyoming and some other team to fill in the other
games. ‘They are tentative and I will ask you to keep it confidential,
but you can rather plan on the 12th, if possible, and the 22nd and
23rd. I am sure we can arrange something for those dates, and we
——e I will advise you when we get further
ONE e

Our basketball prospects are not alluring, but we
will take them in stride and hope to get going before the season
is over.

I trust to see your game in Lawrence Friday night.

With all good wishes, I am

Sincerely yours,

Basketball Coach

Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Dr. Allen:

I am completing my basketball schedule for 1944.
1945. We have three games yet to be scheduled. I
was wondering if you are planning on having your team
down at the hall as you did last year and will want
a high school warm up game. If so, we would be happy
to take part in one of these games,

I notice by the papers that you have started
practicing. I trust that you have lots of Evans
and Blacks this year. My football team certainly
needs lots of work, but they are swell kids and we
are enjoying our practices and games,

Sincerely,

bial,
