U. S. NAVAL RESERVE AVIATION BASE GARRNEROSANSAS. Olathe, Kansas November 19, 1942 Dear Dr. Allen: I was sorry to hear that you are not going to bring your band or cheerleaders, but I realize the difficulties of the added travel arrangements. Ina great many cases such travel is practically impossible these days. I have been in touch with Lieutenant O'Leary regarding en= tertainment between halves and have discussed some plans with him. I have also talked plans over with Louis Lower of the Auditorium. As matters stand now we plan to bring down a band and we are trying to arrange for the services of some of the Iowa Pre-Flight-Missouri football game entertainment. I think this will give us a sufficient program without the school bands. Lieutenant Gardner has an understanding with Bill Powell of Schooley's and Louis Lower to the effect that the preliminary games are to be arranged by Mr. Powell between his Schooley team and opponents of this choosing. Powell has been working on this and I thought I ought to let you know as you mentioned a game between Argentine and Rockhurst high schools in your letter to me. We are planning to begin the preliminary game at 7:30 on December 5th, That will allow a sufficient warm-up period in be- tween games. According to latest arrangements our game will begin at 9:15, This is the time station KCKN has allotted to us for broadcast- ing. We plan to introduce each player in a spot light just before the game begins. Lieutenant Gardner and I would like to accept your kind invitation to come up to Lawrence, December Ist. Would you write and let me know at what time the game begins? We can talk over any necess- ary arrangements at that time. Sincergly yours, Henry C. Hart, Jr. Lieutenant (jg), USNR Dr. Forrest C.
