THE UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCE ROCHESTER, NEW YORK November 16, 1940 Miss Louretta Gerstenberger University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Miss Gerstenberger: Thank you very kindly for your note of November 4. I am sorry to have pestered Dr. Allen with such an unconsequential request. I might have known that he, as usual, would be up to his ears in Speeches and enterprizes of all sorts. He is undoubt- edly the busiest fellow I know! Please give him my kind personal regards and tell him I am happy to learn, even if only through his secretary, that he bears no malice toward me for any ommissions which I may have exhibited last spring in the basketball tournament. Having never heard from him since that date, I had begun to wonder. With thanks again for your kind note and with best personal regards to the members of the department including my young brother, I am <= Associate Professor 6f Physical Education - DSD/eb
