Dr. Forrest Allen,

Director of Physical Education,
University of Kansas,

Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Dr. Allen:

I want you to kmow that I enjoyed very much having
the opportunity to meet you when I was on the x. U. campus
last week, and I am especially appreciative of the time and
consideration that you gave me.

I was sorry to have missed seeing you again at the
souare dance on Wednesdsay evening. I did want you to know
that I enjoyed seeing this activity, and apparently everyone
was having a grand time. I only regretted that I had to.
leave to get a train, or otherwise I am sure that I would
have been "swinging on the corner" too. -

You may have heard by now that I spent some time
Wednesday afternoon with Mr. Ingham, and he seemed quite
agreeable to sponsoring a workshop, provided the physical
education department will direct it. Inview of this, he
planned to get in touch with you. After talking with you
and Miss Stapleton, and if the two of you feel thet it would
be advisable to go ahead with this, Mr. Ingham ststed that
he would then call in some of the faculty members from the
other departments for a meeting.

I shall be waiting anxiously to hear what decision
is made with reference to sponsoring such a workshop.
