Dear Dr. Allen:

Like hundreds of other Kansas University mothers
I,too, read Landon Laird's article on your generous
methods of supplying the servicemen with university
news. And like most of the mothers I am sending you
my boys .name and address. I do not. know if you
may remember David Hax but I have heard him speak

of you so many. times; Fog Allen, I believe.

David is an ensign on the island of Guam. He has
been there since last March after being stationed
at Pearl Harber for three months. David is in the
sound - sonar - dept. on Guam abd has at present
about 40 men under his direction. He doesn't have
very much to do except when @ne of the 40 hitsa snag.

Before V J Day however he worked as much a 20 hours
at a time without rest. This he did ofetn because
the ships docked at Guam were serviced there.

David majored in Electrical éner. and before he
entered the service he had six monthsin industry
with T.W.A. and they are holding an opening for
him on his return. He entered the service in June
194%, David graduated , I think it was in June 1943,
but did not finish his studies until the midyear
graduation had there been one.

if you have any extra copies of Rebounds wé gya}44
be very grateful to have David on your mailing list
or send the news to us and we will send it O06 to Him.

David's address: Cordially yews
