Dear MIldred and T. L.:

Am enclosing four copies of my proposal revised according to suggestions from Norman. Hope that you are able to make good and judicious use of some of them.

Haven't heard from Mr. Keeler, so I am assuming he has not had a good chance to help. He said he would take care of the Cherokee Foundation and would also speak to Dennis Bushyhead who was out of the state in September.

Didn't get down to Muskogee to see Earl Boyd Pierce as I had appointments to much in Tulsa Thursday, the 12th of September and in Colorado Springs the 14th.

In Colorado Springs I had a pleasant visit with Paul Kutsche of the Anthropology Department of Colorado College and spent the weekend with the Homa Woods. Homa Wood is the old classmate of mine who has agreed to finance half of my project with the understanding that we find the other $12,000 in Oklahoma. Have since heard that he sent to the University of Oklahoma securities to the value of $6,000 for the first year.

We are doing out best to get to Norman
