Che National League of Vrofessional Base Ball Clits RCE A Building - 30 Rorkefeller Plaza New York St.Varys Kansas. Dec. 22nd 1939. Dr.F.C.Allen, Director of Physical Education, University of Kansas, Lawrence Kansas. Dear "Phog"; | I regret that I have not been able to give ybu an earlier answer concern~ the matter of broadcasting the Kansas games but I was not able to get the desired infor= mation until just recently and had in mind dropping down and seeing you “in the flesh". As I told you,and I wish you would give my reason as not being able to arrange my schedule so as to do the work in a way that the job would demand,but the real reason is that I am under contract to W.1I.B.W. until April Ist I940 and they do not care to have me identified with any other station. They can hardly be blamed for this stand; it may be next year that I may be able to arrange to do this work and I hope you will be kind enough,if the opportunity presents it= gelf again,to keep me in mind. I expect to see several oF your games---at least the first half and will be nappy to give your games all the “oir space” that I can. By the way "Phog" where can I get the Basket Ball Rule Interpretations as deter- mined by the Big Six Basket Ball coaches in Kan- gas City? If you have a draft of them I will be gled to have them. Officially---and unofficially; Many Happy returns of the Cgristmas Season to the Klien family. ji? 2
