Dr. Forrest C. Allen
University of Kansas
Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Dr. Allen:

I must continue to tell you how you "hit the spot" for us here,
Saturday night. Again and again, since that evening, from faculty,
students, and town's people has come the statement that "Phog"
Allen certainly delivered in terms of our particular Home—Coming.

You and Mrs. Allen made a lasting place for yourselves in the
followers of our school. Ours is a family-like group of people
as you observed. We enjoy it so much when people fit in to our
group.

‘We look forward to having you with us again when the occasion
demands.

And drop in on us informally whenever you come our way, while
attending to other matters. You see, you partly belong to us, now.
