Announcement * This list of University of Kansas faculty members is available for commencement ad- dresses. Please make your selections as early as possible, so that you may be sure to secure the speaker you desire. Indicate a first, second, and third choice. If it is possible to shift your commencement date a day in either direction in order to secure your first or second choice, please mention the fact in your letter. If you have no special choice of speaker, we can probably reduce the traveling expenses by suggesting a speaker who will be in your vicin- ity. The fee and expenses in each case will need to be arranged with the speaker and will de- pend upon other engagements which are ar- ranged hereby. This is true since, in many cases, the major expense is a matter of trans- portation. Will you, therefore, indicate the fee you have available. This should include expenses. * Address All Communications to UNIVERSITY EXTENSION DIVISION UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LAWRENCE, KANSAS eee ee Paarl eet ed CHURCH NIGHT FSLLOWSHIP SERIES No, III Washington Avenue Methodist Church Kansas City, Kansas Wednesday, January 22, 1941 Leslie Miller, Pastor : DINNSR 6230 P.M.

Clifton Cgypy Director fi CC:jl NORTHEAST MISSOURI STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE KIRKSVILLE, MISSOURI September 19, 1940 Dear Old Bulldog: Here comes the announcement of that HOME-COMING that so many of you declared last year you would help Blue Key make bigger and better than ever, if we could but shift the time to Saturday. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26, IT IS. That was a great meeting last year, probably one of those never-again gatherings with "Curly" and so many of the old crowd. This year's reunion will certainly be of that nature, because along with our returning for football, visiting, and seeing the changes that have come to make the OLD SCHOOL a power for twice the student body of former years, we also come to dedicate the JOHN R. KIRK MEMORIAL. We come to dedicate one of the most beautiful college buildings in America to the memory of the man who bred and trained the Bulldogs and created for us the famous BULLDOG SPIRIT that comes to dominate our college life and ell of our activities when the campus days are history. THE PROGRAM 10:00 General Assembly and Dedication 12:00 Informal Luncheons 1:30 Parade 2:00 The Bulldogs vs. Iowa Wesleyan 6:00 Home-Coming Banquet 9:00 Home-Coming Dance Just as before, Blue Key has arranged a schedule of activities such as to give plenty of time for visiting, football, and seeking out old haunts and old companions. And, unless you want to, you won't have to meke speeches. You will want to come early for the speeches at the Dedication by Dean William H. Zeigel and J. C. Williams. You will want to see and hear a Karl Webb band that's bigger and finer than ever. You will want to gather with us at the banquet to break bread agein with kindred spirits and hear that peerless orator on things athletic, Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, Director of Athletics, University of Kansas. WRITE ME AT ONCE ON THE ENCLOSED GARD TELLING ME THAT YOU WILL BE HERE AND HOW MANY BANQUET TICKETS YOU WILL WaNT.
