We are very anxious to have you present at that school to talk to our coaches and officials on the subject of high school basketbal 1 coaching and officiating. We are trying to line up some other outstanding coaches and we are extremely anxious to have you a member of our coaching staff. We realize that this invitation is coming rather late. We don't want you to feel that we have can- vassed other coaches prior to inviting youe The fact is that our Association has just decided in the. past few days to conduct this school and thet is the reason for what appears to be a late invitation. We would appreciate very much in knowing what your fee would be should you find it possible to be pre=- sent with us on one or both of these day. Very truly yours, aS y Assistant Secretary LTQ: EMF
