Dear Dr. Allen:

Several weeks ago when I called you on you on the telephone to
ask if you would take the place on our program left vacant by
the passing of Brigidier General Edmund L. Gruber, you expressed
regret that you were unabhe to accommodate us at that time but
you were kind enough to express willingness to appear at some
other time.

Since your appearance on the program at the meeting we had for
our baseball leagues a year ago last spring, we have been anxious
to arrange a program and ask you to be our speaker,

Accordingly we have arranged our program for August to be such that
we think a talk by you would be much appreciated. Therefore, I am

wondering if would be able to do us the favor of arranging to make

a talk for us at our monthly Post meeting, Monda ug

7345 P.M, at the Ivanhoe Golf & Country oaey ee & Holmes Street,

 

Kansas Clty, | Its sourl.

We plan to have the members of our American Legion Jr. Baseball
team present together with their coach and the American Legion Jr.
Baseball committee together with their families. We will have ap-
proximately 200 present at the meeting and at the cluse of the
meeting,at about 8:45, we will serve ice cream and cake gratis to
the entire assembly.
