I am darn certain that he will give the Association a real year of administration and personal interest. Of course this situation has its dark side, I was at Red's place at Hutchinson, and his farm home, last Thursday and Friday, and he had been rubbing it in on me because you may recall a few years ago I was candidate for Director of the Association and was ignominiously de- feated, Anyhow, I think I was second of a field of four, which was 0.K, I have not been at Lawrence as frequently recently as I used to be when I was trying to save the Brynwod Place for the Acacias, and when I had two boys in school, and whereas Brynwood is lost or losing and I have only onw boy left in school. I expect to be down there on the 9th of July, but my few trips all seem to be hurried, I would certainly like to see you and have a good old visit, and am sure we can do that some time, With best wishes, I am Yours ve truly, 4 by RGT:eb July 15, 1988.
