Dear Dr. Allen:

I have been away from the office the past two weeks on
@ vacation and when I returned I received your letter.

I seems as though we have reached a point where your
Athletic Cabinet and ours differ on the terms of the
eontract for our basketball games. I brought this
matter up in our Athletic Cabinet meeting Wednesday
afternoon. They were of the opinion that the games
should be played on a flat guarantee basis, as we
play other teams. I explained to them that Kansas
would draw for us here at Stillwater and that I felt
and recommended to them that we pay you 4 guarantee
of $400.00 or option of 50% of the net gate, student
tickets not to be prorated. This was passed by our
Cabinet.

We have never played Kansas at Stillwater on a suitable
night. We have either had bad weather or had the game
too close to another important game on our schedule,
which has cut our attendance. I am sure that you will
find that you will always get more than your guarantee
when you play A. & M. at Stillwater.

I hope that it is possible for you to play us under the

above contract.
COE,

He P, Iba
HPI:1 Athletic Director
