OFFICE OF

THE CHANCELLOR y July 16, 1941

Mr. Forrest C. Allen

Campus
Dear Phog:

I asked for a large appropriation for
the intramural field but did not get it. There
is, therefore, no reason why you should not go
ahead and spend the money you how have in hand.

There is another matter which I should
like to bring to your attention. In a general
inspection of buildings the other day with Mr. Bayles
I went into the handball court building. It certainly
is not a very good building, but it would be materially
helped by a coat of whitewash on the inside which would
lighten it up and also remove some of the decorations
placed there by some thoughtless artist but which do
not add to the moral tone of the University. I really
think something ought to be done about this and would
appreciate it if you would give it consideration.

Sometime next fall, I should like to talk
to you about the desirability of inviting the Rotary
Club to hold one of their luncheons on the Hill.
I do not know what the attitude of the Club is atout
venturing from their home quarters. It occurred to
me it might be worthwhile to see what could be worked
out as a sort of gesture from the University to the
town.

Sincerely yours,

 

Deane W. Malott,
DWM: h Chancellor.
