Dear Doctor:

And here I am one man against the world but it's
a cinch the way things are going I'll never starve.
I'm moving to Denver Saturday and I have two good
jobs lined up with two big companies there, in:
fact I think I'm going to be able to take my choice
but both companies want letters of introduction
because I'm not known at all in Denver. I'm writing
to you and asking if you would write one of these
letters for me----tell them just exately what kind
of a guy you think I an.

I haven't been home since March and I'd kinda
like to see the old home town again and also Mt.
Oread but perhaps I can see it when I get my first
vacation. It's a little time before basketball
season gets under way but anyway good luck and I
know that NCAA first place flag will fly from K. U's.
hill come next March.

Please tell Mrs. Allen and your son and daughter
hello for me and I do thank you for the letter of
introduction.

Very sincerely yours,

1403 Cherokee St.

Denver, Colorado.
