Dear Dr. Allen, |

I am wondering whether you have concluded all
negotiations for the preliminary game here when K.U. meets ©
Rockhurst College in Kansas City. The Athletic pevertent at
Rockhurstarather anticipated being asked to play that preliminary.
It seems that they have scheduled a game with Shawnee Missd@on on
that night and will go ahead and play it any way and I believe it
will hurt our crowd some as of course there is a folléing of the
Rockhurst crowd in the High School that would attend our College
game if the High School were not playing elsewhere.

However if your arrangements have gone too far with

the other teams, just forget about it.

Sincerely re

| ae Lan
