Dr. Forest C. Allen Director of Physical Education University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dr. Allen: I have delayed answering your letter of January 22 until we could agree on some tentative dates for the Y.M.C.A. all-sports dinner, and am pleased to suggest two dates to you in April, either of which we feel would be suitable. After considering these dates, if you should find they are not advantageous from your standpoint, kindly advise and we will endeavor to select another, either earlier or later, as you suggest. | The dates we are suggest ing are Guiday, April, or Rriday, April 73° I am also pleased to advise that we have secured an honorarium of $60.00 for this event and, I believe, if you will check concerning your railroad and. pullman fare, that your expenses will run around $30.00. If you could give me some idea of when you will plan to arrive in Cedar Rapids, I would appreciate it as it will help in making our plans for the dinner. Awaiting your reply with interest, and looking forward to a fine visit with you in April, I remain Sincerely yours,
