E. SALLEE, Assistant SuPeRINTENDENT Business AFFairs Sept. 12, 1942 Mr. F. C. Allen, Professor Physical Education Kansas University Lawrence, Kansas Dear Mr. Allens: We are still looking for a physical director and coach for our Curtis Junior High School in Topeka. Many men have. been interviewed and investigated and actually employed. The last man we employed stayed on the job one day and left. This does not mean that we have killed anyone off, but they simply cannot get released from the jobs they now hold. If you have any men that you know of who are competent to teach gymnasium classes and coach football, basketball, and track for junior high school boys, I will appreciate it if you will let us have their names. Please do not give us the names of anyone who is employed in a school system unless you are certain that his Board of Education will give him a release. We much prefer to locate someone who is working in the field of business and who wants to come back into the teaching profession, This position will pay between $1700 and $2000 per year depending upon the man's background, professional preparation, and experience, We appreciate everything which you and your placement bureau have done for us in the past few weeks, but these efforts have not produced a person who has been able to stay with us. Ifyou will please try once more to help us we will appreciate it. Sincerely yours, Assistant Stuperintendent SH :K Health and Special Services
