I hope thet Miller is not permanently injured. I am sure, unless he is terribly crippled as a result of this knee injury, that you with all of your wizardry can bring him around.

I have included him on my list of recommendations to the Shrine Committee in San Francisco. I had quite a talk with Babe Hollingbery, the other coach, in Kansas City and they are faced with a real problem due to the fact that so many outstanding seniors are available this year from all sections. The limit the squad to twenty-two men which allows four ends. I know from our games in which Dave played that he is a grand competitor. It would be a great pleasure to work with a boy of that type.

To explain a little further, our Chancellor has asked me to serve on a committee to investigate the remedial measures of other institutions, especially those covering the following points: 1. The method of determining who needs remedial instruction. 2. What special techniques of remedial instruction or eorrection are given, if any. 5. The types of remedial instruction provided. 4, The method of administering this remedial pro- gram, that is, is each department responsible for its own students, or is there some central agency responsible for diagnosing for treatment. 5. What is the cost of this program, 6. How effective has the program been.
