  • Handwritten letter from Margaret Keily to AHP, RE: Keily sends AHP's fine article, as promised at the party. The delay was caused by Keily's trying to get the glossy print of AHP's picture, but the news press still could not locate it. Many women in Santa Barbara are talking about AHP's article, and many feel that AHP should have been the spokesperson for the women seeking continuing education, rather than Betty Friedan. Keily and two other women would very much like to visit with AHP about continuing education for women, once AHP is settled in her new home.
