[after June 2, 1943] THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA Iowa City Office of the President Dear Friend of the University of Iowa: No more appropriate memorial could be created at the University of Iowa than the establishment of the Nile Kinnick scholarships. The Nile Kinnick Memorial Scholarship Fund will serve to perpetuate the tradition of leadership, attainment and loyalty which reached inspired heights during Nile's days on the University campus. The scholarships offer outstanding students ample means to enable them to devote their entire time to their studies and activities. Mr. and Mrs. Kinnick, Nile's father and mother, have expressed our thoughts so appropriately that we wish to quote what they said, 'We feel certain that Nile would take much satisfaction in knowing that through the scholarships he will be extending a helping hand to future students of similar aspirations.' Cordially yours, Virgil M. Hancher H:rp
