Gentlemen:
Request is hereby made for the use of the Organic
School of Education Gymnasium for basketball practice
which is sponsored by the Fairhope Recreation Board.
As the gym at the Fairhope High School is in constant
usep we find that practice is very limited. Not only
will the youth of public school will benefit but the
youth of Organic who take an active part in this re-
creation program will benefit.
As in the past# your kind consideration will be
greatly appreciated.
Sincerely yours,
