Atkeson Letter
April 27, 1970
Mr. H. W. (Bill) Hargiss
c/o Mr. Fran Welch
1714 Rural Street
Emporia, Kansas 66801
Dear Coach Bill:
I am sorry that I will not be able to be in Emporia for the
banquet May 28th in your honor as I will be in Minnesota. I would like to very
much change my plans but since my wife and others are involved, it is impossible
to do so.
I am sure there will be quite a few of your friends and former
players that will be on hand to pay you homage and thank you for the things you
have done for all of us when we played for you at the University of Kansas.
You can be sure that at approximately 6:00 P.M. on May 28th I
will drink a toast to your honor as I look at Lake Miltona in Minnesota and wish
you the very, very best.
Sincerely,
George L.
"Speed" Atkeson
President
