Ezra Menachem Daniel Stadium Baghdad Telephone: 85267 Baghdad 29 / 11 / 1961 Honorable President of the Administrative Committee for Iraqi Jews After greetings, We attach herewith a copy of the income and expenditure account realized for the Ezra Menachem Daniel Stadium from 1 October 1960 to 30 September 1961, and we also attach a copy of the stadium's financial position on 30 September 1961, duplicated from the stadium's books which were audited by the members of the Stadium Committee. The salaries and workers' wages constitute the largest part of the stadium's payments and amounted during the above year to (1327/500) Dinars. The stadium's activities were seven days a week during most of the academic year, as training was conducted for Frank Iny School students as part of their school sports curriculum. The amount (254/740) Dinars is included under the heading (Repairs and various wages, materials for gardens and courts). (60/000) Dinars are the auditing fees for the stadium's accounts and (50/000) Dinars are legal fees, while the amount (99/340) under the heading (Sports Expenses) includes the value of cups distributed in sports races and nets for tennis, volleyball, and basketball. Electricity expenses during the year amounted to (99/365) Dinars and include the re-lighting of the volleyball court and the lighting of the badminton court and the garden. (20/000) Dinars were paid as transportation costs for moving Frank Iny School students to and from the stadium. Furthermore, the stadium still needs many pieces of furniture, sports items, and lights for the garden and tennis courts. We have already reserved for this aspect in our estimated budget as we allocated the necessary amounts, knowing that they were not all spent, and we must keep this reserve for the current year and it will only be spent if necessary and if it becomes possible for the Committee to devote itself to this aspect. The Stadium Committee had received during the year ending 30 / 9 / 1961 an amount of (2060/000) Dinars which was added to (500/563) Dinars remaining from the previous year, making the total (2560/563) Dinars. The total expenses of the stadium for the above year reached (2070/168) Dinars and the income was (207/408) Dinars, thus the deficit is (1862/760) Dinars, which is requested to be charged to the endowment of the late Ezra Menachem Daniel. In this regard, we are pleased to have been able to perform what we ⟦could⟧ do in terms of work for the public interest in implementation of the spirit and content of the late Ezra Menachem Daniel's endowment. Please accept our highest respect. ⟦signature⟧ Ezra Menachem Daniel Stadium Committee The President
