DIVISION OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND
INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS

Dre F. Ge Allen =-s= October 30, 1937

In all my classes I try to have the student feel
as though he or she is an integral part of the work. My method of
motivating my students is by trying to get them interested in the
work, which I try to make progressively more interesting and difficult.

May I offer a few suggestions considering the questions
I get about a course in advanced boxing and a course in wrestling. -
I believe that we can profitably offer such work. I can teach both of
these. Also in our physical education skill classes and in the theoretical
courses we can help in adjusting certain types of socially deficient in-
dividuals by having them function in our group work. Hence, you see
we are working for both the physical and mental well being of the in-
dividual. A very important point which is often neglected.

May I close this letter with the hope that I do become
a full time mémber of the staff and that our graduate school becomes an
immediate reality.

Sincerely yours,
