Dear Phog:

I returned this morning to find your letter saying that you had
filled your position, and also that you were on your way East.

Williems and, as indicated, has had a wide and varied experience.

very mich worth while spending some time with, While he didn't
major in physical education work in college, he is such a highly
intelligent fellow and has had such a variety of experience, that
he certainly would be worth contacting and talking to.

education. It wasn't very long ago when the field of physical
education seemed in a fair way of being completely dominated by

physical education techniques and procedures, who thought that
"health education" was better terminology, and who also thought
that since there was no one trained in the field of health
education that they could start there, even with the field,
