"June 7, 1973
Dear Buzzie:
Thank you for the Editor and Publisher article on the NFL publicity team. We have seen the article and are checking out the NFL budget and details of their operation. In general we know that it is large, efficient and fearfully expensive. Unquestionably, in my judgment, we have got to improve our operations in this area which principally means the quality of service we give the sports media. I know you will be interested in the details when we get them.
Best regards,
Bowie K Kuhn"
