CHILLICOTHE Rapes COLLEGE

LARGEST PLANT IN AMERICA DEVOTED EXCLUSIVELY TO BUSINESS EDUCATION

CHILLICOTHE, MISSOURI

July 20, 1940

Dr. Forrest Allen,
C/o Kansas University,
Lawrence, Kansas.

My dear Dr. Allens

Our college is celebrating its 50th anniversary this coming
school year. As part of the commemorative program, we have set
aside the month of February as athletic month. It is our plan
to have four speakers, one on each of the Wednesdays in February.
These programs are to be in our assembly hall and are to be held
at 10:30 o'clock in the morning.

We hope to have on these programs one of the outstanding
athletic publicity men of this territory, an outstanding football
coach, basketball coach, and athletic director. I am very anxious
to have you on the program as representative of the basketball
group. I want you for two reasons~--cne is a personal reason and
the other is that we recognize you here as the leading basketball
coach in the United States.

The dates on which we expect to hold these programs are
February 5, 12, 19, and 26. I am placing you on the program ten-
tatively for February 12. I know you will be busy with your basket-
ball schedule at that time so you may have to shift to one of the
other dates. I wish you would write me at your earliest conven-
ience and let me know when you can accept this invitation and
which of the four dates would be the most convenient for you to

come.
— yo Sf ae

7. LE. Lail,
Athletic Director.
