Omaha, Nebraska September 26, 1939 My dear Clarke and Mary: A young chap, known among his local friends as George Kinpoo, and I, are making tentative plans to drive to Iowa City for the gridiron - [So. Dakota] contest next Saturday, and we have been wondering if you would be in any position to offer a roof to a couple of dry land Nebraskans on Saturday night. We should like to see the Cedar Rapids branch of the Van Meter family but if for any reason you are having other guests or plans, please drop a line to me or to Nile. Probably we shall stay with Nile for dinner and come to CR during the evening, if the "room to let" sign is out. Love [Nile Kinnick, Sr]
