Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Rainey Harper

President Roosevelt invites University of Chicago president William Rainey Harper to Washington to meet several men. Roosevelt will be glad to see the football coach Amos Alonzo Stagg, although he clarifies that he is not “undertaking the regulation of football.” He believes that the sport should be kept, but that it needs reforms in order for that to happen.
