Dear Gwinn:
I am submitting to you for your approval the basketball

schedule as tentatively arranged by m@ée I believe the tig-Six Conference
schedule has been approveds

We have had great difficulty in scheduling the games with
Oklahoma A, and Me becau se after we had them scheduled here at Lawrence,
Mre Raymond Nichols, the Chancellor's Exeoutive Secretary, stated that
there was a lecture course that evening and we could not use the
auditorium. That forced us in a position of scheduling the Oklahom
Ae and M. game after the season is closed, on March 11, to be played
here at Lawrences. We are playing Oklahoma As and iM. at Stillwater on

February 17s

‘The games with Fordham, Temple and Loyola have been approvede
That leaves but the one gane with Wichita University that is not approved,
which we scheduled between semesters on February 4« ‘ :

I might state that our guarantees of receipts fron Stillwater
jast year was a few dollars in excess of $1000, so the Oklahoma Ae and
Me game, so far as we are concerned, is a money maker for us, while we |
give them $400 with an option, but the guarantee is always taken because
our income is less than the $400. Consequently, we made $600 net off of

the Ae and Me games ' : ;

_ Wiehite University has been angling for a game and while at
Wichita I agreed with Mr. Gebbart and his Athletic Board to play the
Wichita University on February 4e They insist that we play a double
header; the varsity playing the “ichita University varsity, and our B.

_ team playing their fresimene They are to give us a $300 cmarantee with
oe iy estimate is that our income will be between $600 |
and $800 because the Wichita boosters are getting behind this game, and
as the game is to be played in the Forum, their home court, we should have
@ great crowde ‘They insist that we play a double header for the $300
guarantee and since B games are legalized in the BigeSix, and since we
have played 5 ganes, I believe it would be a fine things Bspecially since
Kansas did well in the Big-Six playoff, and too, it will give us an
opportunity to develop some boys who do not get to play on the regular
