E. S. HICKEY BUSINESS MANAGER THE CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS OMAHA, NEBRASKA November 27, 19389 ‘Mr. Forrest C. Allen Varsity Basketball Coach University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Phog: In recent years there has been no specific conference rate for visiting teams in basketball. Our two best hotels are the Paxton and the Fontenelle. I have asked them to get in touch with you relative to rates. The Missouri Valley teams have recently paid $1.50 per man, single bed accommodations, two men to a room with private bath. There has been some complaint that $1.75 has been charged frequently. There has been no complimentary room for the coach as far as I know. Should I be able to assist you in any way, feel free to command me. incerely, Basketball Coach ESH : PH
