i{ IOWA STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE AND MECHANIC ARTS AMES, IOWA DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION FOR MEN January 5, 1954 Dr. F. C. Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Doc: In the December issue of the Athletic Journal Craig Ruby has a series of cuts on the legal and illegal maneuvers in basketball, JI think we are all agreed that the biggest criticism that we have of the officiating in our confer- ence is its lack of uniformity, and I am won- dering if we took it upon ourselves to provide each of the officials in our conference with this December issue and urge them to study those pictures, if this would not perhaps tend for better officiating. If you agree with the interpretations as given by Ruby and think the idea wrth while, will you take it upen yourselwes to give to the men in your territory a copy of this issue?
