Scope and content

Jack Pritchard asks Ruth Dalton if she could help promote the achievements of Henry Morris "it seems a waste that his experience in administration and in local government should only be used in [Cambridgeshire]." Jack suggests that [John] Reith should be persuaded to visit Impington Village College "as [an example of] a place of sane and economical reconstruction." He discusses the effect of Henry Morris' five community centres on the rural community and mentions that Impington Village College was designed by Walter Gropius and Maxwell Fry. Jack Pritchard refers to meeting Ruth Dalton at Lawn Road Flats with Walter Gropius and mentions that [Molly, Jonathan and Jeremy] are staying with him in America.
