Dear Dr. Allen:

I have read your latest Jayhawk Rebound with
much interest and feeling. I feel that the splendid
work you are doing for all the boys in the service
and their loved ones at home merits a special word
of praise and encouragement. I think it so magnifi-
cent and thoughtful of you to send encouraging words
to the boys over there and consoling thoughts to
their loved ones at home.

I think it marvelous for these boys and their
loved ones to have a person with such capacity for
friendship and understanding as you to keep in touch
with so many boys and be able in such appropriate
manner to offer such fine encouragement and inspira-
tion to them. What a Godsend it would be if we only
had a few more such inspirational friends and leaders.

I did not know T, P. Hunter very well but from
what I saw of him and what I have heard he must have
had qualities that were well above the average. I
remember seeing him at church in Lawrence on the Sun-
day that Pearl Harbor was bombed.

Please accept thanks from me for the fine things
you are doing for these boys and for our country in
helping to win this war.

With best personal regards for you and the splen-
did work you are doing, I am

Sincerely yours

Lee Corder
