Scope and content
Bender to Carl Kreider: on Kreider’s discussions with Professors Brown and Fetter about a thesis topic [possibly J. Douglas Brown (1898-1986)??; Frank A. Fetter--Carl Kreider's son Alan Kreider has noted that "Prof. Fetter was Frank Albert Fetter, eminent Princeton economist and Quaker, whom Dad felt very close to, and after whom I was named - Alan Fetter Kreider"]; arranging for Kreider to meet and consult with Ernst Correll; reference to [probably seminary] course Kreider was taking with “Dr. Mackay” [very probably the seminary’s president, John A. Mackay (1889-1983), who Bender considered “an outstanding personality in the Christian world”]; mention Professor Hershberger [surely Guy F. Hershberger].
