Seattle, Wash., May 18, 1937
Mr. E. E. KIRKPATRICK,
Nome, Alaska.
Dear Mr. Kirkpatrick:
Your application for renewal
of charter was most pleasing to
receive, and the account of your
activities has been of sufficient
interest to be used as part of our
radio program.
Each week we conduct a 15
minute program on KJR, one of
the largest stations, and at that
time we try to dramatize some
Scouting activity that has taken
place in the Council. Your de
scription of your hike received a
major part of the time allotted
us.
I note that you are going to be
in this part of the country some
time during the Summer. I sin
cerely hope that you find time to
visit Headquarters. We will be
happy to have a chance to learn
first hand of your many exper
iences.
Sincerely yours,
W. B. Hubbell,
Assistant Scout Executive,
Seattle Area Council,
Boy Scouts of America,
Seattle, Washington.
