MCANANY. ALDEN & VAN CLEAVE ATTORNEYS AT LAW 604 COMMERCIAL BUILDING KANSAS City, KANSAS EDWIN S.MCANANY THOS.M.VAN CLEAVE WILLARD L.PHILLIPS BERNHARD W.ALDEN PATRICK B.MCANANY THOS.M.VAN CLEAVE.JR. OREXEL 3838 March 8, .1940 Dr. F. C. Allen, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Phogs I have your letter of March 5. I think Jim DeCoursey would make more of an effort to get the Ward High School band for the 22nd if you wrote and asked him to do this than if I asked him. While, as you know, we are the best of friends, I believe he would not make the effort for me that he would if you took the matter up with him direct. I think though you may have difficulty securing a high school band for the 22nd, as that day is Good Friday. Sincerely yours, Ton Mee. TMV:SS
