Dear Dr. Canuteson:

You have helped us so much in ow’ physical education planning so far
that I am writing you the digest of the best opinion of Coaches Shenk,
Kanehi, Strait and Schanke, as well az myself. I have had several letters
from Dr. Elbel from time to time, wondering what we were going to do in the
post=war situation. I an hoping with yow help that we can submit something
_ to the powers tint be that will be a groat advanconent over what we have
ever done heretofore.

-I believe if our ldAison could ve close enough between the Health
Service and the Department of Physical Sducation that these rejects whieh
we have had can be incorporated in ow system in a helpful manner. I assure
you thet we will be very conscientious in our application of work that you
suggest for these men. With the return of Dr. Zlbel from the School of
Aviation Nedicine, I believe he would be ideal to supervise and classify
these men that you send over with your recommendation.

Iwas visibly impressed with the story you told about the boys with
eardiac trouble being =. ® substitute instrustor who was giving boxing
lessons to these fellows. {I can assws you with ow proposed seteup nothing
