This has to do with function, classification of joints, and types of movement. $. ‘The mscles of the body, and source of motion.

THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION DIVISION DEPARTMENT OF EXTENSION TEACHING BUREAU OF GENERAL INFORMATION : : LAWRENCE BUREAU OF CLASS INSTRUCTION LECTURE COURSE BUREAU : BUREAU OF CORRESPONDENCE STUDY BUREAU OF VISUAL INSTRUCTION December 15, 1944 Dr. F. C. Allen Physical £ducation Dept. University of Kansas Dear Mir. Allen: We are having an increase in the requests for material on the question of health in relation to the physical education program in high schools, and also from the angle of the recreational aspects of physical education in the school program. Then too, there is continually the recuests for material on athletics in relation to the general program of physical education. We find some material in such magazines as those listed in the READERS! GUIDE, and do use what books we find in the University Library. We thought, however, that in sending a memo to you, that you might be willing to keep the Bureau's needs in mind as you may run across references, pamphlets or other reference materials which we could secure at a small expense. Also you may know of a reference book or text which it would be well for us to add to our small collection of extension books. The main collection of extension loan materials is, as you undoubted- ly know, a collection of pamphlets and magazine clippings. Thank you for any help you can give us. The need is not immediate today, but we will be glad to hear from you at any time. Sincgrely yours, Helen Wagstaff Secretary Bureau of General Information
