Dear Miss Roberts:

I regret that your letter has gone unanswered until this date.
Frankly, I have tried to get this to you for the past week of ten days
buty my schedule has been so full that it has been impossible.

The text we use in Kinesiology is by M, Gladys Scott, "Anglysis
. of Human Motion", published by F. S. Crofts & Company, New York, 1942.
Our collateral is from "Applied Anatomy in Kinesiology" by Bowen &
McKinzie and "Kinesiology of Yorrective Exercises" by Hawley.

The context of the course has to dow ith:

1. The universality of movement, the history of
kinesiology and its contributions. =
: 2. The articulations of the body and the location
of yotion. This has to do with function,
classification of joints, and types of movement.

 $. ‘The mscles of the body, and source of motion.
Wh stress the importance of the origin,
insertion, action, and innervation.
4. Physiology of movement, the processes of motion.

The muscular, circulatory, respiratory and nerous *
system.

6. Mechanics and motion. DefMnition and types of
motion.

6. Physical principles of internal action. Laws
of motion, center of gravity, stability of
human structure.

7. The motor system in operation. Factors per -
t&ining to muscles, leverage and mechanical
efficiency. : 3 .

8. Physical principles of manipulation of objects.
Use of force and developrent of momentum.

9. Analysis of activities. Static positions of
the body, locomotion, and fundamental
manipulative skills.

I do hope this is satisfactory. ~
