Dear Phog;

How is your basketball yehoauie/ 46 there a spot or two on
it for a service team that would giveg youg fair competition? The
Rosecrans Field Flyers from the a.F.T.C. base here are looking for
games and would like very much to book one or two with Kansas, they
have a fair club composed principally of former college am univer-
sity» players but like ren service clubs they @e handicapped in
getting time for practice and in keeping the squad together inasmuch
as the pilots are coming and going all the time,

The Flyers would like a home and home series, with each team
providing its own transportation «nd taking the home game rec@ipts
er a single game at Lawrence for a moderate guarantee. ihey have a
fine big court here but cannot charge admission hence they cannot
give guarantees. Possibly the game might be arranged for the city
Auditorium if a satisfactory date could be arranged,

I doubt very muéh if they could beat your club but they would
give you fair competition,

Sincerely

Arthur i#,Hughes
