Dr. Forrest C. Allen
Lawrence, Kansas.

Dear Dr. Allen:

I have been figuring on asking you down here to talk to our Rotary
Club for some time and I havent had a time yet that I thought you could
get away.

However, we want you to come down April 17th and talk to the Club. We have
@ noon luncheon. Our club has about 50 members and we think we have a
pretty good club. They slipped on the choice for preident this year when
they chose me but outside of that we are doing quite well. So, if you can
possibly meke it, Doctor, I would greatly appreciate it and I know the
club will be flattered to have you.

I heve sent greetings to you by several @ifferent people lately, and I have
been following the good K.U. basket ball team. Looks to me like you are
right in there and that is as I promised the folks down this way. I am still
just as strong a believer in you and your ability as I ever was and the

folks down this way cant help but know how I feel for I certainly do not
hesitate to make it known whenever the occasion demands. Stay right in there
and I am planning on coming up when you play Bruce's team at Lawrence. I
believe it is sometime in March.

A@ain, let me say we will be happy and proud to have you if yom can come.

Sincerely,

Ré
