"Am sailing today, sorry I can not be with you." As a result, Lee Keedlck, who has managed the explorer's lec tures for 14 years, had to cancel all arrangements for the proposed tour and Rudolph Gersting, sec retary of the Explorers' club, dis patched 700 telegrams withdraw ing lnrltations to the presentation dinner.
