Dear Terry:
| I em not now a member of the National Bas etball

Rules Committee. George Edwards, of the University of Missouri, was
named to represent our Fifth District.

The Netional Basketball Coaches Association asked
me to serve ag chairman of the Rules Committee, but I declined for
reasons best known to myself. Personally, I am not too enthusiastic
about some of the boys thet are riding in the saddle of the Coaches
Association, and I preferred to let them run the show and let them
take the responsibility for some of the things they are doing.

For that reason I em out of the administrative
end of it of my own free will and accord.

Your material on officieting has arrived, and
I find that we use much of this in our system here. However, I shall
be glad to study it carefully. Thank you for calling it to my atten-
tion.

With kindest personal regards, I am

Very sincerely yours,

 

December 11, 1941.

Direotor of Physical Education and Recreation,

FCA:AH Varsity Basketball and Baseball Coach.
