April 24, 1969 Mr . Gerald W . Christenson Executive Directo r Presiden t ' s Council on Youth Opportunity Washi ngton, D . C . 20006 Dear Jerry: Attached is a c_o py of a letter which was sent to the V i ce President regarding the NCAA program. I think this illustrates the position that I took at the conference on youth coordinators . That was that while I support the view of virtually all th youth coordinators that this program was not handled properly in the beginning. I d o not support the view that we s hould pass a lot of resolutions condemning the President or the Vice President or anyone lse in sight as well s objecting to and fighting the NCAA program. We simply took the initiativ to m ke s ure we would have a ignificant input for th program in A tl nta and th t it i m a d p rt of our Yo uth Opportunity Progr- w ll y o ur help. S ine r ly yours , Dan Sw · t DS :fy �
