Allen, Director of Physical Education, University of Kansase Dear Dre Allen: The interest shown in the paper I read at the Research Section at Sioux City concerning the recreational method of teaching and the application of this method to other games and sports, particularly basketball, leads me to feel that we, here in this department, oan profitably go forward along these lines. Another interesting thing about this convention was the evidence of a definite trend toward the application of psychological prin- ciples and theories to the field of physical education and the emphasis upon recreations I am thinking about the suggestion you made to me recently concerning the course in the psychology of teaching and coaching games and sports, using basketball as a laboratory illustration. This might be an excellent way of introducing and explaining our method, since we seem to be leaders in the use of this method, thus giving our students and majors and graduates a definite ad-~ vantagee This course could be handled along the following lines. We could arrange our plan of action so that the theories and principles which we went to teach could show a definite sequential pattern in classroom lectures, and at the same time have meetings on the basketball floor which you would use for the practical demonstrations and application of these psychological principles and theories. Thus we would have a laboratory course in teaching methods and also a very fine way of developing the coaches in basketball. We could also use the course to demonstrate how these principles might be applied to the various other sports. I should also like to suggest that I feel qualified to handle some of the theory courses in this department. I have been enrolled in graduate work since the completion of my Me Ae degree, with the doctor's degree as my goale It might be a little early at this time to talk about the 1940 summer school, but I would like to suggest that I would be available for teaching in the summer session. In looking over =Lon some of the summer school catalogs of other universities I notice thet regular activity courses are taught for the benefit of the teachers enrolled in summer schoole One course that seems to be very popular at Colunbia University in New York is the elementary swimming classe We might offer something like that, giving our teachers an opportunity to learn to swime Many of them have no other chance, and since the University has the pool it would be a good way of introducing them to our departmente I am sure they would be willing to pay the small fee for the privilege of enrolling in such an activity coursee That would be for all people enrolled in the summer session, but I was also thinking of some other courses in skills and physical ~ activity similar to the courses we offer our majorse These courses would be valuable to supplement the teaching knowledge of the physical education teacher. The idea of offering skills courses in the summer was men-= tioned to me by Mre Kemedy, director of physical education at Westport High School in Kansas City at the time some of our fencers exhibited there. A course of this kind might include such games as archery, badminton, fencing, swimming, tennis, softbell, tether ball, loop temnis, and other recreative games that we would find it neces- sary to offer. We also might offer a rhytim course during the sumer, for both men and womene We could include in this most of the rhythms that the students would like to learne If you should like to discuss these ideas with me at any time I would be glad to see you, and possibly we could work the whole thing out much better than presented in this bare outline.

Allen Head, Physical Education Department Robinson Gymnasium My dear Dr. Allen: In checking over the work done by students during the fall semester just past we are struck by an apparent discrepancy between attainment levels reached by students of physical education in their classes in physical education and in their non-physical education enrollment. We find that physical education students were enrolled in 384 hours in their major work; they did this work at an average grade point level of 1.73. These same students were enrolled in 947 hours of work in departments outside their major field and made an average grade of 0.95. Of course there are a variety of possible reasons for this discrepancy, but I would earnestly urge that the instructors in your department examine very carefully to see whether or no the department may not perhaps be slightly more lenient in its estimate of students’ work than are other divisions of the University. It would be too bad to perpetuate a gen- eral feeling on the part of the non-technical faculties that your department was not maintaining the same exacting standards of achievement that other departments seek to maintain. As I suggested, there may be other reasons why these figures turned out as we found them. I would be glad to assist you and the members of your department in publicizing such other facts if you think it wise. goad Tala / ond A.

We are requesting that department heads and staff members submit appli~ cations for work projects for the year 1939-'40, These should be sub- mitted to this office before June 3, 1939. Attached is a model application form which may be used as a guide in filling out the application. A separate sheet is required for each project. Kindly give a specific explanatory title and a detailed de- scription of the work to be done for each project. A statement that the project is carried over from the present year will not be sufficient. Each project must be described. ‘The purpose of the second attached sheet is to suggest types of work possible under NYA. You are not limited to the grouping listed here. Thoy are given to illustrate the general varieties of work pos~ sible under NYA. All projects must be in addition to regularly main- tained routine jobs. Clerical work is permitted only as a necessary part of these projects. The work done on these projects should be of value not only to the supervisor or department, but of high educational value to the student assigned. We believe that for the most part the projects this year have been well organized and supervised. We appreciate the cooperation the supervisors have given USe Project requests for next year must be in this office before student assignments are made. Any request which is submitted after that time must necessarily wait to be filled. Copies of the enclosed form for proposed projects may be secured at the CSEP Office. Call KU 40 and the number of forms desired will be sent you at once. This office will gladly give any assistance in filling out these forms.

Dear Mrs. Hulteen: I am so glad that the booklet is so nearly complete. I cannot understand about the front pages for they were all together; as I recall in the wire basket on my desk. I am sorry that you have been put to all of this extra trouble. Since Mjss Hoover and Jane did so much work on the bulletin, don't you think their names should be on it? I shall appreciate it if you will ask Dr. Allen's suggestion on the matter. The title page looks fine to me, other than that one suggestion. On the back of the title page I have re-written the foreword. The index stencil was cut was it not? I should very much appreciate having a copy as _g0on as it is finished. Know you are glad to have the Kansas weather more bearable. It has been quite damp here combined with an overdose of mosquitoes. The camp is quite an interesting one and I am enjoying it a great deal. Best wishes to you Si. p ee ite Me ii a i il ua ie ii : j a al ig BI nth ii A | ll | fiat ay vial st a i " : if i alla fii i
