Dear Roy:

Tansten: Sex yoiet tae ete ae tp lean, I just
have @ letter from Mr. E. 8. “Burt” DeGroot, Jr., in charge
of physical training for the Fourth Air Force, at Riverside,
California, in which he says: “The air base at Fresno has
one of your GoaleHi standards, but the new athletic officer
there has been unable te find the set of rules which should
originally have come with it. If You have an extra copy of
the rules I would ee, receiving one. As our facilities
and equipment grow I intend to recommend o Goal-lit standard ;
for all bases." 7

‘oye won't you gent two of tho Goslntt rule Vooks to
Iare DeGroot at 4057 Elmwood Court, Riverside, California, and
he will see that the athletic officer of the air base at Fresno -

gets then.

I would like to ‘ci you qaltieate: itech he ig a
prince of e gentleman and e real educator. He was in our dee »
partment of physical education here for two years and made 4
great impression both as to work and as to intelligence. His
father laid out: the fivet:playeraunt 45 Chteage ~ Mouth Park
Playground. He is now on the Eenee 20 eperee OF The Dey
Scouts of America in the West.”

Burt DeGroot's brother is Dudley DeGroot, Ph.D., who
was athletic director at San Jose Teachers College, and he
as their football coach ran up the highest scores made in
the United States last year. At present he is athletic
director at Rochester University, Rochester, New York. You
will remember Dr. DeGroot, I believe, because he refereed the
HaCeAsA. Western Play-off between Kansas end the University.
of Southern California. I would like to see you cultivate
Dudley DeGroot at Rochester. Write him a letter and ask hin
about Goal-lii. This is a fine family of pioneer physical dir-
ectorse

Thanking you for your attention to these details, I an

Smepely yours,
