Dear "Doc" :

Received your letter of September 15. Iam enclosing
a covy of the letter I wrote Frank §. Allen. I thought some
of the information in his letter might be valuable to you at

a later date.

There is some rumor thet they are thinking about starting
another Pre-Flight school and if they should I know they will
be needing more officers.

I find my work here at the Pre-Flight school very interesting.
The different personalities that I come in contact with certainly
will be an asset to me when I get back to civilian life in
Physical Education. .

Every three months I have a new group of cadets to bring
into the Navy and take them thru their indoctrination. Incidentally,
this next Wednesday we have a new croup coming ine Just 453 men/
The laggest Battalion to enter. Our old Battalion leaves Wednesday
and the new comes in the same day. Every two weeks a group graduates
and they are replaced by a new incmming group. Up to now our
Battalions have been from 200 to 300 so it looks as tho' we will
be plenty busy. I happen to be a company commander so T will be
responsible for 225 of the 453 cadets.

I am sorry that I didn't get to see you at the Kansas-Pre-Flight
gamee I was very busy here and couldn't pet away. I hope I will
have an ovportunity to see you during basketball season.

Very sincerely yours,

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS
DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Physical Education Requirements
for University Men

A NATION AT WAR

The war has focused attention on the importance of
good health and motor fitness for every American citizen.
Modern warfare demands sturdy, rugged individuals, ca-
pable of exerting enormous physical effort over a long
period of time. A high degree of balance, flexibility,
agility, strength, power and endurance is needed to sup-
plement courage to meet and defeat the enemy. The
standards of health and motor fitness acceptable when
the Nation was at peace are not adequate now that the
Nation is at war.

The University of Illinois, cognizant of the fact that
most of its men students will soon be called to military
service, has stepped-up its physical education requirement
in line with these new needs. It is interested in helping
every student raise his level of physical fitness so as to
prepare all for quick and efficient service when called. The
new regulations for required physical education are cen-
tered in classifying and guiding students in physical edu-
cation according to their needs with foremost consideration
being given to physical fitness and skills essential to mili-
tary effectiveness. This folder is designed to acquaint
students with this new plan.

ARE YOU PHYSICALLY FIT?

Vigorous activities in the following areas are recom-
mended for conditioning for modern warfare: aquatics,
athletic games, combatives, gymnastics, individual athletics,
outdoor sports, etc. Good condition now means that you
will be in the best possible physical and mental condition
when you enter the service. A high degree of physical fit-
ness is especially necessary in candidates for commission.
In addition, a good physique, a high level of circulatory-
respiratory condition and swimming ability are essential
for physical efficiency.

WHAT IS MOTOR FITNESS?

Motor Fitness is a phase of physical fitness. It is
“motor ability’ or the “ability to perform human activi-
ties.” It includes (1) endurance, (2) power, (3) strength,
(4) agility, (5) flexibility, and (6) balance. It refers to
and emphasizes the fundamental or gross big body move-
ments dominated by muscular energy, kinesthetic sense,
and suppleness of the major tissues and joints.

Motor Fitness means the capacity for efficient per-
formance in the basic requirements of running, jumping,
dodging, throwing, falling, climbing, swimming, lifting
weights, carrying loads, and enduring under sustained
effort in a variety of situations. Quick and efficient con-
trol of the body in an emergency situation may save the
life of one individual or many.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
FOR UNIVERSITY MEN

All men students are required to secure a minimum of
four semesters credit in physical education. This credit
may be secured through taking and passing courses or
taking and passing proficiency examinations. The Depart-
ment of Physical Education for Men is authorized in all
cases to assign students to such classes as in the opinion
of the Department will be most valuable to them in the
present emergency.

All new students are required to take a medical exam-
ination before registering. Students with marked physical
handicaps are required to enroll in special physical educa-
tion classes—P.E.M. 20 “Adapted Sports.” These classes
meet three periods a week. Students assigned to “Adapted
Sports” or “Basic Physical Fitness” are prohibited from
taking proficiency examinations in physical education
courses.

TEST REQUIRED FOR GUIDANCE

All new undergraduate male students entering the Uni-
versity in their freshman and sophomore years are re-
quired to take a Motor Fitness Test before registering.
Students who enter the University of Illinois the first se-
mester 1942-43, and thereafter, will be required to take
this test before registration. Report to Room 306 Huff
Gymnasium any day except Sunday from September 7
until September 15 (hours 8-12 a.m. and 1-5 p.m.).

Students who pass the medical examination and Motor
Fitness Test are enrolled in a variety of regular classes
according to their physical needs. These courses meet two
periods a week. Students are classified in three groups as
follows:

Basic Physical Fitness Group (B.P.F.). Students
who fail the Motor Fitness Test are required to enroll
in a special course called P.E.M. 60 “Basic Physical
Fitness.” This course meets three periods a week.

Prescription Group (P). Those who pass the
Motor Fitness Test but who show marked deficiencies
in physique, endurance, or swimming will be assigned
to courses according to their needs.

Free Choice Group (F.C.). Students who pass
the Motor Fitness Test and are free from deficiencies
in physique, endurance, and swimming are given a free
choice of courses.

All male students after securing the minimum number
of credits (four semesters) in physical education are re-
quired to take the Motor Fitness Test again. Students
who fail to pass the retest are required to enroll in addi-
tional physical education classes for a maximum of two
semesters. (As in P above.)

Beginning June 1, 1943, all new male students entering
the University with junior credit will be required to take a
Motor Fitness Test. Those who fail to pass this test are
required to take a maximum of two semesters of pre-
scribed physical education. (As in B.P.F. above.)
MOTOR FITNESS SCREEN TEST

What Is Measured? The test includes 14 items
chosen as a result of research studies to represent balance,
flexibility, agility, strength, power, and endurance. All of
these phases of Motor Fitness are important and their
aggregate represents a composite sample of all-around
ability in the areas covered.

*Based on experimentation with 2000 to 6000 cases at the University of Illinois,
1941 and 1942.

“Passing” the Motor Fitness Test means passing eleven
items according to the passably fit standards (Column A)
including two of the endurance standards, i.e., Nos. 7, 12,
or 14.
The more desirable minimum standard for the “Fit”
man on the initial test is passing all of the minimum
standards for each of the fourteen items.
After conditioning and instruction, the standards for
the average “Fit” man (Column B) should apply. Several
years of effort should result in a man being able to achieve
the standards for superior “Fit” man (Column C).

Dear “Phog"™:

We see by the paper this morning that you folks are going to
have a compulsory physical education program for both men and
women and that you will have two obstacle courses.

We are this week printing the October issue of “The First Aider"”
and it will carry a few pictures of this type, including those
of the University of Nebraska.

We would like the privilege of taking pictures of your athletes
in action, and if permitted to do so, would like to have you
in at least one or two of them directing the activity. If we
can have these for the November-December issue, we will arrange
to come over and use our equipment to take the pictures.

We would prefer, if possible, to take these pictures while the
athletes are in action and will appreciate a word from you as
to permission, time, and any other thoughts you might suggest.

It is our desire to make the November-December issue of "The
First Aider™ a complete review of this particular event. We
hope to have pictures from many high schools and colleges
throughout the entire country. We believe the obstacle course
will revolutionize track and many of the obstacle courses can
become a permanent part of this event.

Awaiting your pleasure, we are,
