Dr, FF. C. Allen,
Lawrence, Kansas,

Dear Yr, Allen:

I talked to the Co. Suvt., Frank Paschal, at osborne,
and he said he had written you some details as to the Saturday
of this week, Oct. [4th, meeting at Osborne,

As to your speech: You will be addressing a group of
teachers of the county--city high teachers and Superintendents,
city grade teachers, country teachers and also school board mem-=
bers and then some of the public at large. Think your address
should be something along the inspirational line. Since your
are a physical education expert, likely you can bring in quite
a god deal of that or what it means to school students. Then
there is always the war that might be touched on and communism
is a timely topic, it seems. In view of the fact that some claim
it is in our schools and maybe at KU, I guess it would nd be
out of place to mention it. I think some of your game storiés
would fit in well; that is some that I ahve heard you mention.

I am sending this, Allen, not to dictate to you, but to sugge st
what you might care to know, If Paschal suggested something, that
will be okay.

By the way the dinner is about noon at Osborne Hi and you can
arrive there some time before noon, or as early as you wish and
look up Paschal at courthouse or Supt. Brewster at the Hi, Tf will
be there sometime before noon.

Very truly,

i

J. E. Kiksell. {
