UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LAWRENCE DEPARTMENT OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS January Slst L 9 5 9 De. 2.0. Blien Ruth Hoover Jane Byrn Dear friends: It occurs to me it might be well to leave a word with all of you regarding the status of Tau Sigma for the future. Last year I requested that Dr. Allen include the dance group on the departmental budget for 450. Thus far it has not been necessary to call on this amount but I did want to call it to your attention before leaving. I doubt, too, if anyone realizes that the large drum, the gong, and the small drum, the large picture in the front office and all the dance magazines are the property of Tau Sigma. The instruments were paid for directly out of its treasury, and either made or purchased by me. Needless to say their use has been largely departmental. If it continues to be possible that Tau Sigma can be subsidized in part by departmental funds, I feel it is fair and right that this property should auto- matically belong to the department. If, however, such does not obtain, then in all fairness Tau Sigma should be reim- bursed a reasonable amount for these items. They would easily be worth $50 to $75. I trust the whole matter will take care of itself, but thought for the sake of everyone concern- ed it might be well to have this statement from me. Yours very truly, OM alien Dunkel ©
