Dear Friends and fellow Navy Leaguers, It is with regret that I must inform you that the Navy Ball scheduled for October 13th has been CANCELLED, due to lack of interest among the membership. Of 350 members, only 9 have given us the courtesy of a reply! For those of you who did reply I thank you, and for those who have accepted and paid, your checks will be mailed back to you today with my apology for not being able to inspire the membership to support their own events.With regret,Capt. Alexander MacKenzie,USN, Ret.President - Portland Council NLUS
