¢ 7 ¢. THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA IOWA CITY ; OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS DIVISION OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION April 8, 1942 Mr. Forrest C. Allen Varsity Basketball Coach University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas My dear Phog: I am sorry to have delayed getting in touch with you in regard to arranging a date for our basketball game this coming season, but I have been waiting to hear from Major Griffith relative to our Big Ten schedule. To date he has not sent me any scheduled playing dates, but I was happy to note in your recent letter that you would be interested in playing us just prior to your Christmas holidays. I am anxious to pley Nebraska and the University of Kansas on the same trip, if possible. I am writing Lewandowski of Nebraska to see if he would be interested in playing us at Lincoln on December 19th. Would it then be agree- able if we played you on the following Monday, December 2ist? If this date is satisfactory, I would appreciate hearing from you as early as possible. Very sincerely yours, “tes, el Mle ed Re F. Williems Basketball Coach RFW:ES
