STANFORD UNIVERSITY OFFICE OF THE DEAN OF MEN STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CALIFORNIA October 12, 1939 Dr. Forrest C. Allen University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Dear Doctor Allen: This will acknowledge your letter of Octo- ber 7 which was sent to members of the Rules Com-— mittee. I have received a similar request from Clair Bee. However, Bee asked me to write a re- sume of the rules changes for this year. I am referring him to Oswald Tower. The Same question arose in my mind concern- ing this publication as the one which has impelled you to write to a number of us. If this publication is to be in competition with the rules book, then I see no reason why we should help in its publica- tion. I think we should get a statement from June Scalmon before any move is made. I am writing him accordingly. With best wishes, I am Very cordially yours,
