It was necessary for me to met in Chicago with the
Executive Committee of the N.C.A.A. in September, and both Olesn
Griffith thet there was no chance to get the division that we are
now sharing in. I told Olsen and 8t. Clair that I was going to
tell the Exeoutive Committee exactly the true status of things
and that we had represented to our N.C.A.A. group that they would
share in part of this money, and if I had misrepresen the thing
there was only one thing for ms to do, and that was to get outs
and therefore, I was tendering my resignation.

  

Neither Olsen nor St. Clair put up any sort of a scrap.
The Executive Committee group then said, “Would you people be
willing to wait outside until we can have a meeting, and call you
in?” The plan that we are now operating on was ac
precipitated by the very strenuous objection that I made. I mde
the charge that it was unfair end not in keeping with what our
committee had been led to believe was something the N.C.A.A. would
go along with. Although I did not say it then, I felt as if I
heave had some workable plan and it would not have been necessary
to cause this unpleasant situation.

I am giving you this for what it is werth to you. Any
statement that I make can be backed up by correspondence with John
Bunn. |

Director of Physical Education and Recreation,
