THE COMPANY WILL APPRECIATE SUGGESTIONS FROM ITS PATRONS CONCERNING ITS SERVICE S November 27, 1940 Dean Frank A, Neff Faculty Manager of Athletics Mmiversity of Wichita Wichita, Kansas Dear Dean Neff: I ablnowledge receipt of your letter of the 25th instant enclosing deatinte ar of the contract for a basketball game between the University of Kansas and the University of Wichita, After seanning over the contract in ~ presence of Mr. Earl Falkenstien, our Financial Secretary, there are same considerations in the contract that should F be further discussed. One item is that messes should not be counted. All athletic associations recognize the fuct tmt there are a certain number of necessary passes, but the feeling is m the part er that a sortain musber of passes should be speci fieds It is also desirable perhaps that the University of Kansas should have @ certain number of tickets for parents of the pleyers who will participate in the game. I mow this is a practice for the home team and doubtless the courtesy should be extended to visitors because we will have two full teams there and the parents of the boys will be desirous of seeing the eatest. The item in regard to students of the tniversity of Wichita being admitted free, is a moot point in the mind of Mre Falkenstiene In all of our contracts student tickets are counted at 20¢ gross and they are figured in the gross income. At no place where we play are students adnitted freee Another: Steu ‘whieh states that if there is a ietabet from faneas for a financial statement, a financial statenent will be mde. The University of Kansas does request ea financial statement on all athletic emtests as it is necessary to lmve this when the certified vublic accountent comes annually to audit the bookse It would be better to make a check payable to the University of Kansas, Athletic Association, than to pay in cash. The check then, of course, is a receipt and the financial statement can be filed with the secretary cf the Athletic AGROSIEE a I en returning the cuntiact so that these slight alterations can be mde if agreeable to youe However, if you desire to correspond regarding some of them before the emtract is revised, please feel perfectly free to write use Thenking you for your cannunication, I am, Sincerely yours, Director of Physical “ducation and Recreation FCAs:lg | Varsity Basketball Coach .
