Mr. Edwards Page 2°. Oct 3, 1940 JS

why Nels was not able to give you much information because Nels was not

on the Board in the beginning, and perhaps did not take a great deal of
interest in it at first because our group was looked upon with great
suspicion by the rules body. But after having seen the Association in
operation for several years the rules body came to lean upon’this root’
very heavily and to ask their support of certain things that the coaches
association championed.

George, I will read this constitution over again and see if
I can help you further.

While I was dictating I glanced through the book the second
time and I find you stete the first annual convention was held in
Chicago in 1929. The first convention was held, as I have stated,
in June in 1928.

With all good wishes, I am,

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physicel Education and Recreation
Varsity Basketba!1 Coach
