Lawrence, Kansas

Dear Doctor Allen:

Your letter of June 30th should have received an
earlier reply. I am sorry for the delay.

I have written to the various secretaries of national
organizations to which I referred in my letter of May 27th calling atten-
tion to your new responsibilities and to your interest in setting up a
working relationship with their organizations. I think, however, that
I misinterpreted myself rather carelessly in these letters. As a matter
of fact, the American Student Health Association carries an institutional
membership and not an individual membership. The University of Kansas is
a member of that Association. For that reason, any division of the Univer-
sity of Kansas may attend the national meetings of this Association without
setting up any formal personal relationship. This same fact applies, as
you know, to the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The reorgani-
zation of the American Physical Education Association as a part of the
National Education Association is based upon individual membership. The
same thing is true of the College Physical Education Association. I urge
that you make use of the institutional memberships indicated above and
that you join as an individual the two physical education associations
to which I have referred. As the Director of the Department of Physical
Education, you are responsible dficially to your University for a clear
understanding of the programs and progress of each one of these several
orgenizations. You will find them more than worthwhile.

Gy. yours,
Ly a0 O Yyns,
THOMAS A. STOREY, M.D.
