Eisenhower\nHonorary Chairman\nEdward P. F. Bagan\nPresident & Board Chairman\nDear Jacqueline,\nDirectors\nJ. Lyman Bingham\nAsa Bushnell\nI was so overwhelmed by your appearance at our People-\nC. J. Devine\nto-People Sports Committee meeting that I almost wept. You\nDaniel J. Ferris\nSidney L. James\nare a true friend and a real lover of sport to come down\nJoseph Prendergast\njust for that meeting, and what a speech your parachutist\nHarold F. Moor\nmade after you had left. He was the real star of our whole\nExecutive Director\nprogram. At my advanced age I am tempted to take up para-\nMembers\nchute jumping, he made it sound so entertaining. I think\nDon Allen\nGeorge P. Apdale\nas a nation we should take it up to prevent our young people\nN. J. Barack\nJohn Barrington\nfrom becoming soft.\nDr. Joyce Brothers\nJohn J. Carlin\nBob Considine\nIt was wonderful to see you and Floyd so graciously\nArthur Daley\nact the parts of the Fall Guys\". I think the Circus Saints\nMiguel A. de Capriles\nDr. Albert de Ferrari\n& Sinners will remember your combined outstanding performance\nJack Dempsey\nas the best one to date.\nJoe di Maggio\nRichard S. Falk\nJames A. Farley\nStanley Frank\nThe United States Olympic Association had its meeting\nFord Frick\nin Washington. You may be interested to know that they now\nBernard Gimbel\nIsaac B. Grainger\nhave over three million dollars with an assured annual in-\nWillard N. Greim\nArthur B. Hancock, Jr.\ncome of at least $100,000 a year. Our Sports Committee,\nCarl H. Hansen\nwhen it has a regular income, will see that the devotees of\nBen Hogan\nBob Hope\nsport are able to travel yearly. It is our belief that a\nClarence H. Johnson\ngoal set for a trip abroad will greatly encourage our youth\nJohn B. Kelly, Jr.\nHenry Kemper\nto participate in different categories of games.\nHarlan de Baun Logan\nByron E. Martin\nBob Mathias\nWith admiration and best wishes always.\nJinx Falkenberg McCrary\nRenville H. McMann\nC.G.
