Dr. Richard Beck, University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, N.D. Dear Dr. Beck: It has come to my attention that you will be leaving for Winnipeg over the weekend to attend the annual convention of the Icelandic National League of America. Deeply appreciating the cultural pro- gram and splendid work of the League and greatly cherishing my Honorary Mem- bership in such a notable organization, I am herewith asking you to represent me at the convention and convey to officers, members, and others assembled, my heartiest personal greetings and good wishes as well as those of the University. In that connection, let me add that the University has taken pride in your long- time position of leadership within the League. Further, I note that the convention will open on Monday, February 23rd, which happens to mark the 70th Anniversary of the founding of the University. From its very first year, students of Icelandic origin have been in attendance, often in considerable numbers, and have made such excellent record that among them are several of our most distinguished graduates whose names are well known to you all. They have brought honour not only to their University but to their nation as well. The University is also duly proud of its more than 60-year-old Scandinavian De- partment, which has won international recognition, and where the study of Ice- landic language and literature is properly included. Mindful of all these things, I extend my most sincere greetings to the convention of the Icelandic National League and wish it much success. Cordially yours, JOHN C. WEST, President.
