a The Southard School 2221 WEST SIXTH AVENUE TOPEKA, KANSAS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE MENNINGER CLINIC December 6, 1944 Forest C,. Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dre Allen: On Wednesday December 13 I have to talk before two or three clubs at Ke Ue I wonder if it would be possible for me to meet with you and discuss one of our needs at The Southard School? We have been looking for a person to head up our recreation work, and I feel that someone trained in physical education would be our most likely prospect. It could be a man or woman, but I believe a man is preferred. Sometime ago I met Dean Melott and mentioned this problem to him. He suggested that I get in touch with youe Sincerely, Nees John Be Geisel, Phe De, Director The Southard School JBG:SW
