Dear Dr. Allen: I-was glad to get your letter and think it certainly was a dandy and warrants an answer. To me it is very encouraging that there is enough interest being aroused - go that people actually care who is president of the Alumni Association. A little healthy contest conducted in the right manner I am sure we all agree, is a good thing. While I want very much for Charlie Shaeffer to be elected, regardless of the outcome, we feel we have done the Alumni Association some good by creating a renewed interest. We sent out a number of letters and you would be surprised at the replies received from all over the United States, and I think interest has been stimulated very materially and wouldn't be surprised if it has not resulted in a very substantial increase in Alumni memberships. As you know, there is not a thing in the world that Cal Morrow, Thornton Cooke, myself, or any of the other fellows in Kansas City want from the Alumni Association. Our only purpose is to have a “live" organization that We feel certain that our Kansas City organization is of that type and we always stand ready to get behind anything constructive. Again let me say we appreciated your letter and the thoughts contained therein. With kindest regards, I am Very truly yours, lat bites Beas ach/g June 6, 1945. My. Ce G.

It was a noon meeting of the Rotary Club at Russell. Prior to my going, I dug back into some old files end pulled out a letter dated November 18, 1929, from George W.

The Liberal team won the Western Kansas Regional Tournament at Garden City last yeare Fred occupied the same kind of a quarterback role, your boy Milton did at K.U. Fred being a poor boy has not figured on going to college this year, but I have been trying to persuade hime I know he would help K.U both in football and basketball though, and he is also an accomplished musician, being both a pianist and a trombonist, and was cmsidered sufficiently expert in musical lines he Was assistant to the judges in last year Southwest Kansas musical contest herée This is the first boy I've recanmended to you,Phog, since George McCormick; and this boy is at least as good a prospect in both football and basketball as George Was and a lot better scholar.

Dear Mr, Hird: I told you that I would write Mr. McBride, and I am enclosing — @ carbon copy of the letter I have written him. I do not remember all the details of his comment but thought he would like to know that you could establish the evidence that there are black squirrels. I do not know whether he will have any comment to make on this or not, but I thought it was very interesting. I want you to know how very much Mrs. Allen and I enjoyed our visit in your home. We also appreciated your letting us have the exseption- ally splendid produce that we were able to pweehase. I am passing on the information to you that I did not get to play golf, after all. We got home too late, so I called off the - mateh, which was an important adjunot in my young life. It is a wonder that Mrs. Wird ever got her work done, the way I bothered her. I'11 bet she thought I valued golf pretty highly in my - aotivities for the day. Well, that is the truth, but that was one day that I had to call it off. : ‘ , " Bobby and Mit were at our home for dinner last evening and we enjoyed the strawberries, chicken and everything to an wusual degree. It made a perfect meal for the large family we had assembled at that time. Please tell Mrs. Hird that in the excitement of counting those eggs we got three and a half dozen instead of four, but she said that she was not sure ‘whether she was counting them oconrectly. And I know the reason why she made the mistake, because we were talking to her while she wes counting them. On our next trip out we will not be in such a hurry end will have more time for a visit, and I promise you I will not have a golf game on. I didn't know that Mrs. Allen was going on a general shopping tour intending to buy out the Hird household. It was a pleasure to ba in your lovely heme and visit with you nice people. ‘ With all good wishes, I am ‘ : Sincerely yours, ® , Director of Physical Education, FCA: AH Varsity Basketball Coach. oe Magy 83, 19456 I told Cal Morrow quite sone time ago that ‘he could certainly court on moe for my support of Charlie. I realize, too, that George Nettels is a candidate, but George certainly in this job, with his busy existence, sould not do the job that Charlie has done and doubt less will deo. George Nettels was captain of my 1920 football team and I do not have a better friend in the coumtry than he. But I believe Cherlic Shweffer will be a better A of the Alwmi Association | than my close friend, George Nettals. So you cen begin to appreciate how pained I am uct to be able to vote for George. ae Thanks for writing, and good luck.

May 19, 1945 Dr. F. ©. Allen, 801 Louisiana Street, . Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Dr. Allen: You will receive, or have already received, a ballot for the election of new officers for the K. U. Nation—-wide Alumni Association. When you do get this ballot, I want to ask if you won't please take a couple of minutes’ time and vote for Charles Shaeffer, who is one of the candidates for President. Charlie is a worker; he did a marvelous job as both Treasurer and President of the Kansas City Alumni Association over a period of years. There is a lot to be done at this particular time and Shaeffer has the ability and will take the time to really do it. Please remember to vote and if you see any of your K. U. friends, ask them to do the same. The very short time it will take to do this will be a material contribution toward getting things accomplished as we all want to see them. Very sincerely yours, cee Abert BE. Haas Sw J. C. MORROW LAND BANK BUILDING KANSAS CiTy, Mo. Dr. and Mrs. F. C. Allen 801 Louisiana Street Lawrence, Kansas Dear "Phog" and Mrs. Allen: If you have not already received, from the Alumni Association of the University of Kansas, a ballot for the election of officers for the ensuing year you should have it within a day or two. Both tickets are composed of very fine, loyal Jayhawkers. The slate proposed by the Committee of which Thornton Cooke is Chairman, is headed by Charles B. Shaeffer as the candidate for President. Charlie is a very good business man and a wonderfully fine fellow. During the next year plans will be made for the erection of a suitable war memorial and the Alumni Association will have a very important part to play in this project. I am sure you agree that it is essential that a level-headed hard worker be President of the Alumni Association during this time. Those of us who know Charlie Shaeffer recommend him very highly. Personally, I am very strong for him and I hope that as soon as your ballot is received you will mark an "X" opposite his name and return it to the Alumni office. Sincerely yours, Ck J. C. Morrow JCM.EJ TANNER & MITCHELL Architect-Engineer 310 WARD PARKWAY KANSAS CITY, MO. EDWARD W. TANNER ANSEL N. MITCHELL 2 May 15, 1945 Mr. F. C. Allen 801 Louisiana Street Lawrence, Kansas Dear Phogs In a short time you will have the opportunity of voting for a new president of the K. U. Alumni Association. I am particularly interested in seeing a Kansas Citian elected, and that will be possible this year because Charles B. Schaeffer, '16, is one of the nominees. Kansas City has the largest and most active alumni associa- tion in the country, and it is, of course, the closest one to Lawrence. This is particularly important this year because much important work must be done to properly chart the course of K. Ue. in its postwar problems. Kansas City has not had a president for ten years and only two presidents in its entire history. Charles B. Schaeffer, now Priorities District Manager of the War Production Board, Class of 1916, has always been a tireless and loyal worker for K. U. He will take the time to go to Lawrence whenever necessary and will work tirelessly for the good of the entire alumni body as he always has in the past here in Kansas City for our local association. All of us here in Kansas City would appreciate your support. Sincerely yours, EWT-IH (flee. b MALh P89 097 A Re LE rT . Po Y33
