-THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS OMAHA, NEBRASKA E. SS. HICKEY HEAD COACH OF BASKETBALL October 15, 1942 Dr. Forrest C. Allen Physical Education Director and Varsity. Basketball Coach University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear "Doe:" We are fully in accord concerning the dates for our two games in spite of the variation in the original contracts. Concerning officials, I am in the dark as much as you. 1 did hear from Eilers on July 25th and he stated that Van Reen was defnitely out because both games were on school days. Then on August lst he wrote that both he and Peters hed secured Gibbs for both games. When he wrote that Van Reen was not available (this being our first choice along with Curtis or Gibbs) I have assumed that they would follow Our second choce as outlined on July 2@. In fact, I have urged this with Eilers amlsuppose we should both ‘require them to follow our previous. arrangements. I. have written to Eilers today and we should have this settled shortly without any further delays. . We are greatly concerned about travel but are looking forward to completing our schedule even if we have great inconvenience in doing so. If I can help in any way let me know. With kindest regards, I an, Siscerely yours, . e san ijckey Basketball. Coach cere
