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. ?

Very truly yours, =:
