Dear Phog:

Upon arriving at the Tiger Hotel last night for the Chamber

of Commerce banquet, I met our mutual good friend, Syd Stephens,
who told me he had just had a brief, but pleasant visit with

you. It was necessary for me to be in Jefferson City yesterday,
attending the meeting of the State Defense Savings group. It
was a most inspiring meeting and an overflow attendance. I'm
sorry that I missed a visit with you. I shall mark my agenda
with an item of unfinished business until I have had the pleasure
of a visit with you when you're here.

A goodly number of us hated to miss the basketball game. The
report indicates that your men acquitted themselves with glory.
I tried to get you after the Chamber of Commerce dinner, only
to learn that you left immediately after the game.

Kindest regards.
