Department of Physical Education October 26, 1939.

Dear Faculty Member:

The first recreation class for the children of
faculty members was held last Saturday morning in the gymnasiun,
and we trust that egch and everyone of them enjoyed the hour
of plays Beginning next Saturday the hour for this play will
be from 9 to 10 o'clock.

Before the children begin participation in the
various activities that will comprise the year's program, we
request that they have a thorough physical examination by a
physician, This examination should include the vital organs
and the other usual features of an examination preparatory
to participation in vigorous activities. This is a safety
measure required of all students participating in physical
education activities in the University, and we feel it ad-
visable to request the some of these children, Will you
kindly have your children bring a signed statcment from the
doctor tha t the examination has been completed when they
come to slass next Saturday morning?

As a hygienic and health measure we are also
asking each child to wear a gymnasium sit on Saturday
mor ningse

Our faculty committee (composed of Miss Byrn,
Mr. Raport and Mr. DeGroot) feel that it would be advisable
at this timc to limit the age group of the children to 8 to
15 yearse |

We will welcomo any suggestions you may wish to

offer concerning the program for these children, and assure
you of our desire to cooperate wholchcartodly.

Very sincorely yours,

 

Director of Physiéal Education and Rocreation,
Varsity Basketball Coache
