Intramural Sports Program

There is being offered for every student's pleasure and recreation a wide
and varied program of intramural sports. Participation in these sports is
purely optional, but it is hoped that each student will acquaint himself with
the program and take part in at least one sport during the year. The intramural
program has made a definite contribution to the physical welfare of
the students who are not engaged in intercollegiate sports.

The fraternities and dormitories are organized into leagues for participation
in team sports. The individual sports are open to all, and the fraternity
men and the non-fraternity men participate together.

The team sports now offered are as follows: Fall term—touch football
and volleyball; Winter term—basket-ball, boxing, and swimming; Spring
term—playground baseball and track. Team sports for independent (nonfraternity)
groups are as follows: Fall term—touch football and volleyball;
Winter term—basket-ball; Spring term—playground baseball.

Boxing, swimming, and track for independents will be participated in
individually. Individual sports offered (open to all) are as follows: Fall term
—horseshoe pitching (singles and doubles); Winter term—handball (singles
and doubles); Spring term—tennis (singles and doubles).

Awards are granted for first and second places in all sports.

Further information concerning the program and rules for participation
may be secured at the Intramural Sports Office in the Memorial Gymnasium.

There is no Physical Education credit granted to a student for participation
in intramural sports.
