Dear “Wr. Potter;

Mr. E.A.Thomas, of Topeka, Kansas,
recommended you to me for information that I may
need e

I am going to the University of
Kansas this year for my Masters' Degree in Physical
Education and for my Thesis I have chosen the
actual time a high school basket ball player moves,
greater than a walk during a conteste

I would like to compare the result
against time playe®smoved before the center jump
was eliminatede Now- do you have any informa-
tion on hand that i could use or direct me where
I may find it? I have the small report made by
Dr. James Naismith in the Rule Book of 1925-1926,
but need more information than that.

I hope to get at least 200 cases for
my study under the present rule. ‘With the few cases
I have already studied, I have received some interest-
ing information which may change some people's view
point,that is those who are criticizing the present
rule of no center jumpe

If interest, 1 will be glad to give
you the final report of my study.

Yours very truly,
Ernst A.Uhriaub,
