re aaa, eR R REISE ea ; January 16, 1942. Mr. Me Pe Ahearn, Director of Athletics, Kansas State College, Manhattan, Kansas. Dear Mike: Thank you for your very good letter. Yes, Mike, I knew through my knowledge of the rules and the experience that I had gained here as Director of Athletics that you of yourself could not do the things that I asked. But I was hoping that you would ask Dr. King to consider the matter. I know that it would be illegal, but I thought sine Oklahoma had been so definitely illegal and then had endeavored to smoke sereen the issue, that maybe someone might want to call their hend. I certainly would if I could have an opportunity to do so. I am not a policeman nor do I desire to persecute anyone, but this Lester Layton ease is not ended yet. Nor is the action back of transporting those ten boys to Oklahoma U. over yet. I will endeavor to lay before the con- ference some information that I think will be rather surprising, and if the conference desires to do nothing about it, then well and good. Prenkly, there are too many yes men in the country and again, there are too many fellows who think the other fellow has got something on them and thex are afraid to speak their minds. I felt that since Oklehoma has cast aspersions on the University of Kansas and had insinuated that her basketball coach had made some startling offers to Mr. Tucker, then and there I wanted to call their hand, and I still do. I have never seen you afraid of anybody and I do not think that situation will ever exist. If dirty linen must be dragged out of the closet to clean some things up, then I have no hesitancy in doing the m- savory job. In my humble opinion, Oklahoma has been in very much the position of Japan when they marched into Manchuoko and of Hitler when he marched into the Ruhb Valley.

KANSAS STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE AND APPLIED SCIENCE MANHATTAN ‘ DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND ATHLETICS January 10, 1942 Dr. Forrest C. Allen Dept. of Physical Education University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear “Phog": Your letter sugresting that we hold a meeting of the basketball coaches plus “Jap" Haskell and Bruce Drake has been received. As you have already indicated in your newspaper comments, it arrived after I had mailed my answer in the Tucker case to “Jap” Haskell. However, I am certain that you, through your long experience as a director of athletics, know that I do not mve the authority to. call such a meeting because the subject matter is of a legislative nature. Apparently, it is difficult, and perhaps rightly so, for one to secure concrete evidence of subsidization of athletes by members of any Conference. Rumors fly thick and fast, and one may have his on opinions regarding the actions of certain schools, but it is quite another thing to prove guilt.in a case. I believe that my contention is supported by the fact that newspapers quote Oklahoma authorities as furnishing proof that Lester Layton is not being paid by the Boston Red Sox, but has been legitimately working his way through school. In the morning paper they also maintain that they are entirely innocent on the charge that they are paying the expenses of the boys from Wichita High School. I appreciated receiving the information contained in your letter, but as previously stated, I have no authority vested in me to call such a meeting as you suggest, because such a meeting is handled by the Faculty Representatives of the Big Six Conference. Very sincerely yours, M, Fe Ahearn, ‘ Director MPAsIR oe 4 2g | a og January’ 27, 1942. Mr. Rebert E. Allen, 44 Marris Hall, University of Pa. Philadelphia Pa.

AMERICAN —— FOR ‘HEALTH, PHYSICAL EDUCATION, AND RECREATION Cou ttee on Student Seatien To: The State Presidents of the Health, Physical Hducation, and Recreation Associations Dear President: | The Committee on Student Section, sneak by the president of the dis Association for Health, Physical Education, and Recreation, is attempting to interest major students in the affairs of their state and national associations, Some of the ways in which we hope to accomplish this aim is by promoting student membership in the above organizations, by stimulating an increased attendance at association con- ventions and by preening state, on and national student sections, May we urge you to Wives the SehsinitaSaing institution in your state toe send in their student state and national members, A list of these institutions is enclosed in this letter. The report of offical membership in your state appeared in the September 1941 Journal of Health and Physical Education as you ne doubt know. May we suggest that you consult the student colums of this “wer for a check up on this: section of your state memberships In connection with student attendance at the coming national onside do you think it is possible to secure a student or group student rate on bus and train? Contact with the various transportation companies might result in reduced fares for students and be a means of enabling. more wtodents to attend the con= vention. Many states already have student wankheus in their state associations. These sections function at the state conventions and sometimes throughout the year. It would be a big step forward if with the formation of @ national student section there were also similar district and state sections through which © there might be a unity of work and purpose. Will you please give us your suggestions for a state section when you answer the questions’ enclosed with this letter. We have Sahil a short list of questions. the dataiatinid and replies of — all state presidents will be tabulated and sent beak to each state so that you may — share in ~ ideas of alle war i thanie you in otvunne in Menaet of my comittes for your mine in further- ing our work. ?

Dear Dean Nelson: I am sending you herewith a letter which was sent to me by Superintendent Ermest R. Allbert of Smith Center in behalf of Frank Pattee, who is a candidate for a Swmerfield Scholarship. I have written to Superintendent Allbert ex- plaining to him that I am not a member of this committee. I told him that I was forwarding his recommendation to yous. Very sincerely yours, Director of Physical Bducation and Recreation, Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach. February 14, 1942. Mr. Ernest R. Alibert, of Schools, Smith Center, Kansas. Dear Superintendent Allbert: This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of the 12th instant concerning Frank Pattee, who is a candidate for one of the Summerfield Scholarships. T am mot a member of the Summerfield Scholarship Committee, but I am very happy to refer your letter to Dean J. H. Nelgon, who is on the committee. Professor Olin Templin ise chairman of the committee, but confidentially, I believe it might harm the boy for me to recommend him to Professor Templin. He has not been friendly toward athletics, and frankly if the boy has any athletic skill I believe'a state- ment from me would not help any. I trust that you will pardon me for writing you in this manner, but I went to do what is best for Frank's welfare.

Dear Allens: Just wantéd to congratulate you on the fine season you have had with your baskef ball team. Twice I planned to see. the Kansas City contest but one thing and enother interfered. In the background of my head, I think, perhaps, the main reason was I was not sure I could get a favorable seat when I had waited so late to arrange for it.

During his travels introducing the Bachin Chart of the Vascular System and lecturing on it, he was requested by leading anatomists, biologists and heads of hospital training schools to take up the task of producing a chart of the nervous system. Much study and research went into its preparation. Not only has no chart of equal scope ever before been available but many of the structures pictured on this Chart of the Nervous System cannot be found in any textbook. A careful study of this chart is the best preparation for work at the dissecting table. For example, using this chart one can easily trace the sympathetic system from the cephalic down through its cervical, thoracic, abdominal and pelvic portions to the caudal end where both its trunks converge in a single ganglion, the ganglion impar.
