The Connecticut Mut a L O.LYNN SMITH 4 521 Wheeler Kelly -Hagny Bldg. General Agent WICHITA, KANSAS October 24, 1939, Dr. Forrest C. Allen Athletic Department University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansase Dear Dr. Allens: It has been several years now since I have had the opportunity of seeing or talking to you but if you will try real hard, I believe you will remember who I ame It so happens that I am on the Program Committee of the Wichita Life Underwriters! Association, This Committee is endeavoring to have outstanding speakers from all over the United States talk to the Association during the coming year. From my experience in school, I know that you are a very splendid speaker. I also know that you put more emotion behind your thoughts and ideas than almost any man I have ever heard talk and I am sure the entire Association would consider it an honor if you would consent to talk to us some time during the coming year. I thought it possible that some of your athletic activities might bring you in this part of the State at some future date at which time we might perhaps make convenient arrangements for you to talk to us at that time. If you will consider speaking to the Wichita Association I will correspond with you further as to the time, subject, and expenses, I would appreciate an answer to this letter as soon as it is convenient for you to reply. Sincerely yours, Be Lelu LES :e¢e Limon E, Stiles,
