Director of Physical Education,

My dear Dr. Allen:

As chairman of the Major Students Section for the Kansas
Health and Physical Education Association Meeting to be held
in Topeka March 28 and 29, I am making tentative plans for the
program, and am writing for your suggestions as to speakers.

After some discussion among our majors here, I find that
they seem to want practical and useful material and suggestions,
and that they enjoy short talks. Therefore, I am planning to
have two groups of talks, the first by representative towns-
people of average sized towns and schools, and the second group
to be given by young teachers in the field.

As I understand the situation, we have no expense money
provided for section meeting speakers. Could you suggest a
(1) superintendent or principal (2) a Chamber of Commerce
member, (3) a minister and (4) a Board of Education member from
an average sized town or towns who could and would take a part
in this program? As it is now planned, the talks would be only
about seven to ten minutes in length.

Would you also send me the names and addresses of graduates
in the field (either girls or boys) who might be able and willing
to make a short talk on the second half of the program?

_ I would also appreciate any suggestions or criticisms you
might care to make.

Thank you. Sincerely yours, ,
