Dear Dr. Allen:

The reason I have been holding off on answering your letter concern-

ing basketball schedule is that our Athletic Cabinet feels that we

should make a change in financial arrangements of contract. Since the
money received for our student season tickets is not prorated to individual
sports, but is put in general fund, our Cabinet feels that student season
tickets should not be counted in net gate receipts.

Uur student tickets are sold to the student at the beginning of each school
year and we do not think that any one game on our schedule in any sport
materially helps the sale of these tickets.

In the past it has been necessary for us to pay Kansas more money from
our basketball account than we deposited into the account for our share,
due to fact that student season tickets are not prorated to our basketball
account.

1 would be glad for you to think about this and take it up with your
Cabinet if you think it necessary. ie are ready to enter into agreement
for games this coming season on same basis as in the past with exception
of counting student season tickets in figuring option. Naturally, we feel
that public season tickets should be counted.

I am enclosing copy of our schedule and would appreciate hearing from you
at your convenience.

With very personal regards and wishing you a pleasant summer, / an,
Sincerely yours,

H. P. The
HPI:I Athletic Director
