Amateur Athletic Union

March 20th, 1939.
Mr. Nile Kinnick,
5024 Hamilton,
Omaha,
N E B R.
Dear Mr. Kinnick:
Thanks for your nice letter anent my broadcast over
Station WMT in Cedar Rapids on February the 8th.
Sorry you could not have heard it, as I gave Nile
the tribute he deserved.
At the risk of being labelled as a pest in your book,
I am again writing to tell you that a somewhat similar broadcast will be made by me next Friday night,
March the 24th, over Station KSCJ in Sioux City at
6:15 P. M.
It will be necessary to quite completely change the
script I used before, because we have different people
we want to reach in that territory, but I am going to
keep Nile and Al Couppee in there.
I understand the station reaches down to Council
Bluffs and Omaha, and hope that you can hear.it.
You really have a mighty swell son. Very truly yours, James W. Fay JAMES W. FAY
JWF-H.
