C. Allen, 107 Robinson Gymnasiun, University of Kansas. Dear Prof. Allen: We have just received word from the United States Armed Forces Institute urgently requesting that we submit a new schedule of courses and fees for use by military personnel, by May 15, 1945. In preparing this schedule of courses and prices we shall need to know if there is any contemplated revision of courses, and if so, the name and price of the new text or texts. — The courses in Basketball for Men and Football Coaching were revised in 1937 and the course in Track and Field Athletics is very old; in fact we have no revision date on it. We are wondering if these courses should be revised now or if the text and the courses themselves are still up-to-date. Your advice about this matter will be greatly appreciated.
