KANSAS STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE AND APPLIED SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY MANHATTAN, KANSAS October 29, 1937 Dr. F.C. Alien University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Doctor Allen: This will acknowledge receipt of your kind invitation of October 22. I had a conversa- tion with my Irish partner in which he stated we had better wait and see what kind of weath- er is going to be on tap the week end that we journey down to your city. If the weather seems propitious, I feel that we would be very happy to avail ourselves of an opportun- ity to play over your new golf course. I do not presume our presence will entail any ex- tended preparation on your part and wonder if it would be all right to wait and ascertain whether we will have weather such as we have today or somewhat similar before letting you know definitely. In other words, if it is all right with you, we will drop you a line a short time before Saturday morning, Novem- ber 135. Again thanking you for your kind invitation, I am Very truly yours, A King , Heady Dep't. of Chemistry
