Dear President Phog $

Received your letter about Mike Getto 's desire to know
just how many Rotarians are coming to Lawrence for the luncheon
Jahy l2e

It is hard I find to get people to answer letters e
On June 10 I sént a post card to all the presidents whose names I
had and to secretaries.of last year where I gid not have the names
of the new presidents , asking them to let us know how many would
be coming to the Assembly July 12 , and asking the names of the
new presaideht and secretary in cases where I did not have ite
I heard from several giving names of the new officers , though
several have notyet answered that iteme Five reported number comings

Bonner Springs wrote they expected to have 3, Emporia 3 or
more if they would be permitted to send more , Junction City 4,
Kenses City 5 or 6 » Leavenworth 3 .e« Five answered .

that led me to write you that I figured there would be
80 there besides the Lawrence Rotarians . Byt the replies have
not continued to come in as I hoped °

I gent out a program letter June 29 , asking to let me
know e To-day I shall get out a letter asking just one thing - "How
many are coming,?Blease reply by return mail if possible .

My letter Jue 29 stated that “Beery president and secretar:
is expected to attend , and other officials and chairmen are
welcome if they let us know how many. arecoming~ e I shall send you
one so you will know just what Iam asking them Ws we °

I am preparing recognition labels big enough to see
eve ybodys name a good distance away e Like the enclosede You can
slip the under part in your coat pocket orshirt pocket or pin the
under part on your necktie or shirt o Different colors for different
offices = pink for presidents indicating they are tickled pink to
be presidents , blue for secretaries reminding them that all
sdcret@ ies must be true blue to answer a,l correspondence , and
white for other Rotarians. eo I want letters big enough so you
ean read -them a long way off .e
