Dear Harry:

I am writing to bring you up to date on our Kansas
City basketball series between the University of Missouri, Great
Lakes Naval Training Station, Olathe Clipper Flyers, and the Univ-
ersity of Kansas,

Lieut. Tony Hinkle has asked that due to a difficult
traveling schedule his team be permitted to play the second game on
the 29th of January and the first game on January 50th, Inasmuch as
Missouri was ‘scheduled to meet Great Lakes in @olumbia on the 29th,
Kansas will play the Clippers at 8:15 pem. Friday, with Missouri and
Great Lakes meeting a t 9:45 or 9:50 peme On Saturday night Kansas
will meet Great Lakes at 8:15 pem, and Missouri will meet the élippers
at 9:50 pome Twenty minutes should elapse between the end of the
first game and before the start of the second.

I have tried to preserve all previous commitments
and arrangements as well as former promises, so far as possible.

Lieut. Theodore "Ted" O'Leary, of the Navy, will
have charge of 211 between halves entertainment of both games.

Reaves Peters, Athletic Commissioner of the Big Six,

will assign officials. I will report his selections in the next
few dayse

approval of all parties concerned,
