May 24, 1945. Dean E. B. Stouffer, Chairman, Graduate Research Comnittes, University of Kansas. ~ ~ Dear Dean Stouffer: Thank you for your mimeographed letter to the faculty regarding a possible budget for assistance to research projects of members of the faculty. I have polled ow group and at present we have no one, it seems, who has had time enough to dwell on possible research work. We are hoping when things get normal again that some of our men, especially Major E. R. Elbel who is in the School of Aviation Medicine at Randolph Field, Texas, may have some defin- ite contributions. And too, when things do get normal, most of us will have time at least to think of possible interesting re- , search — . Sincerely yours, Director of Physical Education, FCA:AH Varsity Basketball Coach.
