Dear Frances,

I was thinking about you while attending a Western Gerontological Society Conference in Denver, that I should have asked you to to[sic] join me at the conference. It was an excellent meeting. You could have roomed with me. Perhaps next time.

It was good to find your postcard on my return. I asked around and this is what I came up with.

Dr. Robert Shiomi
Portland, Oregon 97201

He does not practice any longer. He is almost completely blind, I understand.

Dr. James M. Watanabe
Spokane, WA 99208

He may be of assistance to the project.

Mr. S "Buddy" Ikata has complete file of the Minidoka "Irrigator" I am told. It should be a good resource. His address is . . . Portland, OR 97214

Unfortunately Miss Kimie Tambara who edited the paper passed away two years ago. Her co-worker there was

Calvin Ninomiya
Chevy Chase, MD 20815

He may be of help.

I haven't contact any of these people. Right now I am involved in applying for HUD grant again due by May 15th. I hope the above information are helpful, and I wish you and Mr. Townsend success.

Will you be attending the reunion of the Hunt '45-46 class in Seattle?

Love,
Lury
