Mrs Ned Irish,
Director of Basketball,

New York City, N.Y.

Dear Ned:

I am confirming ow game with St. Bonaventure in
Memorial Auditorium, Buffalo, for December 26, and Fordham Unive
ersity in New York on December 28, as per your letter of Appil
23rd. We are following your suggestions of taking on st. Bonae
venture instead of Temple, as I quite agree with you that the
_ gate receipts will doubtless be better in Buffalo.

You state in your letter you will conform to our ~
| of 1940. In your letter as of April 15, 1940, you
stated that you will give us for expenses $2080. Of this amount
$1500 would be reimbursed by Fordham and $580 by Temple. You may
have the athletic directors of St. Bonaventure and Fordham send
contracts to Mr. Gwinn Henry, the Director of Athletics at the
University of Kansas. I desire to bring my customary fifteen men.

I believe that our boys will give a better accoumt
of themselves this next year than they did in their first venture
in New York and Philadelphia. Although we have an entirely new
personnel, the boys are a little more aggressive and I believe
can stand the elements better. We had a rather sad experience
trip to New York of each one of the boys taking flu. We

who were flat on their backs most of the way to New York.

With all good wishes, I a

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Biucation and Recreation,
