Menorandum to Chancellor Nalott:

Your remar terday suggesting that the front
athletic office be into an exercise room for boxing
and wrestling causes me to venture this observation. 3

ee You perhaps would not want a psychological labora-
tory placed in one of the front offices leading into Frank
Strong Hall. Under the best of conditions a disordered appear-

But before moving I spoke to Raymond Nichols, Dean Stouffer
and you regarding the feasibility of our utilizing the more —

ment, with @ much smaller staff and mich less persommel work,
has always occupied the entire east front, while the men's
department with en inoreasingly heavy load has not the necessary
reom to do its best work, due to unusual congestion. And with
an Army quota soon coming in necessitating an increased physical
education personnel, I do not see where we will put our men.

detail record work. Our records must of necessity be accurate.
Already in our back “front" office we have Messrs. Shenk,

I still think that my early appeal for necessary —
working space was quite apropos.
