We would be delighted to have you consider the University of Kansas, We think we have a fine university and an exceptional engineering school. | I am hoping that you can come up and visit the university in the not too distant future. We are reestablishing our Kansas Relays this -year and even though you may not compete in track, which I suspect you do, it would be a fine opportunity to visit the university and get better acquainted, The morning of the Relays we invite many of the high school seniors in to check ouy a basketball suit and swap goals with our varsity players. Our varsity | _ boys play along with the high school boys and generally a good time is had, In i other words, on Saturdgy morning prior to the Relays the boys have a good work out, a good shower bath, and a lot of good fellowship, This puts them in shape for a good meal at noon and the Relays in the afternoon. You will hear more | about this a little later, but count on coming. The date is Please remember me most kindly to your good dad and tell him that sometine in the not too distant future I hope to drop in on him and say “hello, I have no schedule at the present time for a visit in your vicinity but I am hoping.
