It may tie that you and your fellow directors may want to 
reserve giving an opinion on this suggestion until some of the 
reports on the cruise appear in print. In any case, I do want you 
to give the matter most serious consideration. Certainly the Club 
has everything to gain and nothing to lose by conferring some honor 
on the man in question. 
My very best to you.
