OFFICE OF THE Laforence Public Schools C. E. BIRCH, SUPERINTENDENT : Datrence, Kansas October 26, 1938 | : | Dr. Forrest C. Allen, Director ‘Physical Education University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dr. Allen: I have been out of the office, a little under the weather, for a day or two or I should have written you sooner in answer to your fine letter of October él. There is positively nothing to forgive, Dr. Allen. I am always glad to shake your hand, but you were busy and there was no thought in my mind that you had been discourteous in the least. On the other hand, I should thank you for the very fine address that you gave. I am sorry I did not get to hear all of it. John Jacobs remarked to me later that he felt “put on the spot" to have to follow you. I may say, however, that Mr. Jacobs did himself proud. Again thanking you for your great interest in our schools, I am Very sincerely, t - f Superintendent CEB: VW
