Dear Doctor:

I appreciated very much the opportunity of visiting
with you recently in Columbia. Congratulations upon another
of many fine ball clubs, and upon the Helms Foundations
Award.

As yet, the wife and I have not heard a word from the
Barneys, Drs. Ester and Mason, but I'll drop you a few
lines as soon as we hear and let you know their address.

Doctor, Ann Scipes, the daughter of one of my friends
is soon graduating from high school and is planning to study
to become a laboratory technician. However, she would like
to enroll at Kansas University during this coming summer
term as a special student and take anatomy and chemistry,
preparatory to the technician course.

However, there is something of a financial problem to be
met. I.was wondering if you could perhaps obtain a part
time job for her éither on the campus, or with some business

firm.

She has taken typing and shorthand and is well qualified
to do both, she also has had experience in a drug store and
soda fountain.

Anything which you could do to help this girl obtain
this portion of her education would be greatly appreciated
by her, and a big favor to me.

Please let me know at your earliest convenience what
help can be given in this case.

In closing, my wife extends her best personal regards.

Fraternally,
— E. LZ Kon
