Dear Doc:

Please pardon the delay in answering your letter of
September lith.

I believe that we are all set now for a Basketball Team
as we have eliminated the uncertainty and it now appears as if we
are definately set for a Basketball schedule.

I sincerely appreciate your including our Team on your
schedule, and as much as we are so late in getting started, we will
arrange the game with Kansas at a time that will be of the most
convenience for youe

We are confronted with the sitwation of having no gym-
nasium here at Leavenworth, as the gymnasium which we planned on
using is now in use for the student Officers in the Command and
General Staff Schoole Would it be possible far your team to play
us at the High School gymnasium in Leavenworth, the Auditorium
in St. Joseph, Missouri, or the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas
City, Missouri?

I feel that it would be profitable to both Kansas Univer-
sity and to ourselves if we could arrange to play our game in either
the St. Joseph auditorium or the Kansas City Auditorium.

I fully agree with you that both the financial problem
and the automobiles will give all the Schools engaged in athletics
many additional problems.

I will appreciate a reply from you at an early date.

With kindest personal regards and best WL I am
