Dear "Fog":

Sorry to keep you waiting so long for
an answer to your letter concerning basketball
dates.

Right now it looks as if it will be
impossible for us to play you between Christmas
and New Year's. However, it may work out a little
later that we could play at that time.

As I stated in a previous letter, we
are contemplating playing Missouri at Missouri
on January 29th, and the Januery 30th date a
ones at Kensas City would fit right into that
program. Would the January 30th date suit you?

If you think a double-header is nec-
essary to draw a big crowd, what would you think
of the idea of getting a couple of the smaller
colleges around there to play 4 geme, or possibly
Phillips 66, or somebody like that? Anybody who
wouldn't require much money might be suitable.

I would be glad to hear from you again
concerning this matter.

With best personel regards, I am

Sincerely yours,

Sfaul 0, eh
