My dear Mr. Allens

I have your kind invitation of
February the twenty-sixth to speak at
the banquet on March 29, to be held
in connection with the National
Collegiate Athletic Association basket-
ball tournament and the National As-
sociation of Basketball Coaches. 2
regret very much that it is impossible
for me to accept.

With kindest personal regards,
I beg to remain

Faithfully yours
