To Members,
National Basketball Committee:

By this time you have probably been notified that the annual meeting
‘of the National Basketball Committee is to be held in chicago on
| 6th and 17th.| Acting on the suggestion of Chairman St, 3

m send you a few more details relative to the meeting.
The committee will meet in the Pent House on the top of the tower
of the Morrison Hotel. The Morrison has offered to supply desir~-
oe rooms at the special rates mentioned on the enclosed card,

I suggest that you take sare of reservations at your earliest
opportunity although I do not anticipate any difficulty in con-
nection with ability to secure rooms at any tine,

the committee will convene for the first nesting at 7300 Palle
Tuesda) eee th, Those who arrive early will probs

| lobby on the second floor of the hote
in the caeanentine Lobby.

The Tuesday night meeting will be devoted to various reports.

These will include recommendations from the National Coaches Asso-

pe recommendations from various other organizations of a
tewide or nationwide character, report of the questionnaire

ree and the research committee and presentation of the

various rule comments which have come to the official interpreter

or to other x ber of the committee.

The annual basketball questionnaire is now on the press and we
expect to have it ready for distribution in the next few days.
®inee the time is short it will be necessary for each member of
the committee to plan distribution and to be ready to act as soon
as his supply of questionnaires arrives. In order that there be
a minimum of duplication I am suggesting that the plan used last
year be ee tant.

The essential features of this yhen wore that each representative
of the Nat . Collegiate Athletic Association attempt to get the
ate tient ree "im the hands of college men in his own district,
The Canadien representatives will circulerize membere in their
own orgonizations. Messrs. St. John and Tower, as representatives
at large,will use their own judgment es to wheré their supply
of questionnaires will do the most good, iach of the high school
representatives will be responsible for the Fes sh school men in
the territory as outlined on a map which is being sent to then,

Spoming sre ~ renewal of pleasant associations and a profit
