Also writing to ask him to return the tape THE REFUSAL to the Center as they are anticipating a number of requests for the film at the start of the new school year. In addition, mentions that the Center is getting discouraged with their attempts to raise money to dub the film.

  Asks when they returned the film and apologizes for not sending them the English script as promised. Also, in regards to the Center's fund raising efforts for the film, THE REFUSAL, Gordon mentions that they did have a grant which has been taken back, thus putting them back at "square one".

  Thanks him for returning their copy of THE REFUSAL. Writing to get clarification of their first "conditional grant" to help fund the dubbing of THE REFUSAL and how it then turned to a disapproval of the grant.
