C. Allen, Head Department of Physical Education My dear Dr. Allen: Several of the majors in your department have asked for minors which are not provided for in the catalog statement of minors. One or two young men desire a minor in the Department of Economics. At least one young woman wishes a minor in the Department of Sociology. Under the present set-up the only possibility is a minor in social science, which consists of ten hours of history, five hours of political science, and five hours of optional social science. If a request were to reach us that provision be made for minors in line with the desires and needs of your students, the curriculum revision committee could make recommendation to the faculty _ the matter could be approved at an early date. Certain other of your students have expressed dissatisfaction with the set-up for a minor in biological science. If in this instance recommendation were to come from you that the provision for physical education majors be modified in this regard, it could also come before the curriculum revision committee and subsequently the faculty. | The next faculty meeting will take place at two o'clock in Room 115 Fraser on Thursday, January 27. If communication from you could reach us by Monday or Tuesday the matter could be finally approved at that faculty meeting. I shall be glad to hear from you if you wish to make recommendation in the directions indicated.

THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LAWRENCE TEACHERS APPOINTMENT BUREAU November thirtieth i 8:2 7: Dr, F. C. Allen Physical Education Department My dear Dr. Allen: - Mr. Chandler has asked me to send you this copy of a report from the special committee on credit for officiating at intra-mural contests. He thought you would like it for your files. Sincerely yours, a at roa Ria etn se gs Se ( COPY) November 22, 1937 To the Administrative Committee: Your special committee on credit for officiating at intra- mural contests begs to make the following report: 1. It appears thet the demand for such credit cannot possibly develop within the next twelve-months period. Consequent- ly, we do not believe that hasty action is required. 2. If practice teaching credit is to be given for such officiating, it will be necessary to schedule the full-time services of a supervisor to cover the time during which the officiating is done. This will mean more supervisory time than is now furnished by the Department of Physical Education. This plan cannot possibly mean, therefore, a financial saving to the department. 3, This committee feels that such officiating could possibly better be handled as pert of a two-hour course in officiating. It could represent one hour of sueh a course, and would be akin to the laboratory phase. It would have to be done under the observation of the instructor in charge of the course, and would furnish the basis for criticism and discussion both during and outside of the class hour which the other hour of eredit for the course would represent. Yours very truly, Signed: fF. 0. Russell E. E. Bayles E. R. Elbel OFFICE OF THE DEAN THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SCHOOL OF EDUCATION LAWRENCE December 10, 1937 Dr. Forrest C. Allien Head, Department of Physical Fducation University of Kansas My dear Dr. Allen: I note with very genuine satisfaction that the Admin- istrative Committee of the Graduate School has approved course 174, Tests and Measurements in Physical Education, for graduate credit. It is my earnest hope that this will be but the beginning of an intensive development of your department in the direction of graduate recognition. I am satisfied that we can in the very near future offer a program that will be as sound and stimulating as that of any of the other schools in the Mississippi Valley. I am wondering whether it might not be wise in this con- nection to establish some sort of relationship between the Departments of Physiology and possibly Anatomy and your own department; that is, to develop a relationship that shall be functional to the end that the activities of the departments mentioned shall supplement each other and enable your people to operate with maximum efficiency and minimm waste of time. I shall be glad to talk this over with you at your convenience. Again congratulating you and your group on your achieve- ment, I beg to remain, Sincerely ~~ ! eo Taj 7 ymond A. Schwegler ean g October 4, 1937 TO THE MEMBERS OF THE EDUCATION FACULTY: Please find attached herewith a copy of the new certifi- cation requirements which have been approved by the State Board of Education. Please note that the Board proposes to issue 2a wholly new series of certificates, which will largely replace those currently issued. Since this new development raises the question of desir- able amplifications of offerings here at the University at some near future date and since members of the steff are frequentiy asked for information concerning certifica- tion practice in this state, you are most earnestly asked to familiarize yourself with the new procedure as weil as the old. ; This will enable us to discuss more intelligently the future policy of the School of Education.
