Mr. Forrest C. Allen

My dear Mr. Allen:

Long before I received your letter I had decided that it was un-
fortunate -I had attended the Summer Conference. I talked entire-
ly too many times and said too many things. In the first place

I was referring to your Reorganization when I spoke in the morn-
ing and said that "Up until about one or two years ago it was
impossible to find a candidate in a Physical Education Depart-
ment in Kansas." I realize full well that my opinions regard~
ing the Physical Education, Physical Education and Coaching,
Physical Education Departments and the Kansas University Phys-
ical Education Department are of absolutely no value.

When I mentioned the fact that your coaches were not in attend-
ance at the summer conference I did it to a very select group
and did not realize it would bring about a controversy. Either
Miss Dunkel or Mr. Henre must have told you of my comment. I
made the comment to make the point that until the University
Coaches get interested in Physical Education we do not need
expect our high school coaches to get interested in Physical
Education. The fact that they are on a 93 month salary is of
no interest to me whatever. Most of the Physical Education
instructors who were in attendance at the conference are on 4

9 month salary.

Please accept my apologies for any interpretation you have
placed on anything I may have said that is critical of the
Physical Education Department of the University of Kansas.
With the exception of the fact that I never seem to be able
to learn to keep my mouth shut I thought it a very fine con-
ference.

| At one of the conferences on Monday “ire Mifflin mde

$e wth On enamel, i on surprised. I came to the Univ
ersity not expecting to hear her leaders say such things."

Naturally, when he brought the University in and cited

Mire MASZlin as one of her graduates, which he ie not, I arose
and made a statement to clarify the situation. The whole dise
cussion was ome bearing on administrative procedure.

Soe lator I learned that lire Byans discussed rathor oritieally
the absence of the : tive sports coaches at the conference.
I felt it would be rather helpful to write him a letter of this

Dear Dr. Allens:

Thanks for your letter of the 26th. I, too, will be
looking forward to our meeting in April.

I have sent you under separate cover a copy of a little
booklet one of my students and I developed last year on Objective
Tests of Individual Activities. I hope you might find it useful
in some of your courses at the University of Kansas.

What is the reaction in your conference toward the
omission of the center jump this year? Have they accepted it
as much as the west coast did a year ago? We are sensing some
real criticism in these parts around the lack of any breathing
spell anywhere in the game as a result of the omission of the
jump. Be interested to get your reaction.

Yours very truly,

H. D. Edgren
Supervisor of Intercollegiate Athletics
