Dear Sir: It is with great pleasure that I wish to inform you officially that the City of Calgary, Alberta intends to make a bid to stage the I964 or I968 Winter Olympic Games. In accordance with the instructions issued by the International Olympic Committee the members of the Calgary, Alberta Development Association have been informed of all the requirements necessary to stage the Winter Games. I have been informed that the Calgary venture has now secured the unqualified approval of our Federal Government, the Government of the Province of Alberta and of the City of Calgary. The application from Calgary to stage these Games will be discussed at a meeting of the directors of the Canadian Olympic Association which is to take place in Toronto on 1st November 1958, but I am confident that the Calgary bid will receive the support of the Canadian Olympic Association. I will communicate with you further and furnish you with full details as to the various venues which it is proposed to make use of.

Brundage, Mon Repos Lausanne, Switzerland. Dear Mr. Brundage: This letter will place the official civic approval upon an approach being made to the International Olympic Committee as regards the 1964 Winter Olympics. The City of Calgary has always been an out­ standing sports-minded Canadian City. We are, of course, located in the immediate proximity of the Canadian Rockies and in the facilities at Banff, with the co-operation of the Provincial and Federal authorities, would be in an ideal position to offer a winter setting that would be the equal of any setting in the world. May I, therefore, respectfully request your earnest consideration of Calgary, Canada, in planning your future International Winter Olympics. Yours very truly, MAYOR.
