Material for Yue stionnaire

fi ms been the custom to make up the basketball questionnaire at a date
éarly enough so that it will be possible to circulate these at some of
the late seasm games or tournaments. Bach member is urged to send sug-
gestions for the questionnaire. Som time within the next week or ten
days, you will receive a sheet which will outline some of the things which
in the opinion of the chairman of the Questionnaire Committee should be
included. You will have the opportunity of commenting on these and of
making additions before the matter is definitely presented to the Question- -
naire Committee for final action as to what is to be included. In the ©
meantime, you should be giving this mtter some thought.

Yours truly,

Whi bhe
