If you should favor an athlete who is not listed in the preliminary nominations which appear on this ballot, you are privileged to "write-in" the name of an athlete of yesteryear who would be to your liking. It is most important that we have your completed ballot in our possession not later than May 28, 1971, in order that we may extend invitations to those who are to be honored?╟÷well in advance of the Banquet date, June 26. We will greatly appreciate your prompt cooperation.
