Dear Mr. Allen:

Blue Key is very glad to hear that you will be able
to be our speaker on the night of April 23 at our annual
spring sports banquet. We would like to apologize for
our delay in answering your letter, but our plans are
only now complete.

With regard to the information for which you asked,
Blue Key is the Men's National Honorary Fraternity and
is made up of men who have evidenced high standards of
scholarship, leadership, and service on our campus. In
carrying out our program as a service fraternity, we
attempt by this banquet to show appreciation and bring
recognition to those graduating seniors who have rendered
outstanding service to this university by their partici-
pation in competitive activities.

As you will note in the enclosed clipping from today's
issue of our campus paper, we are honoring not only
graduating seniors in varsity sports, but also those in
the men and women's rifle teams, debate, and dramatics.

Again may we express our gratitude for your generous
acceptance of our invitation, and we are looking forward
to meeting you next Wednesday. If you will notify us as
to the time you will arrive, we will arrange to meet you.

Sincerely yours,

Robert Branson
