Since our misfortune in losing Don,my wife has been traveling with me and this leaves Jack entirely on his own, We were in Lawrence last week- end and he seems to be worrying a great deal,due to the fact that he has,as yet,been unable to make any connections for the next school term, He has always been quite a boy for home environment and of course he misses Don a lot. Al- together it is pretty hard on him and he is so anxious to get located before next fall. _ I have wondered if you could find time to talk to him sometime,as 1 know it would help him a lot and I wiil certainly appreciate it. He has a world ot confidence in you ana if you could assist in getting him placed for next term he will be very grateful, I trust this is not asking too much,altho I know you are awfully busy at this time, Perhaps it will be just as well if you don‘t tell Jack I wrote to you, Thanking you in advance for any help you can offer and also for past courtesies I beg to remain, with kindest personal regards, ery truly yours, / Lloyd Sands Box 703 Hays, Kansas UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SCHOOL OF BUSINESS LAWRENCE FRANK T.
