University of Virginia Library

Men Scheduled

Dear Sir:

In your recent editorial on
October 12th regarding the security
of women at the University and
around Memorial Gym, I would like
to make this correction. In your
editorial you stated that University
woman were asked to play their
Intramural contests in the
afternoon in order to eliminate
walking from the dorms to the gym
after dark. I do not minimize this
danger but the reason for the girls
being asked to play in the
afternoon is due to the fact that we
had intramural basketball for men
already scheduled during the
evening hours.

Otherwise I think the editorial
was timely.
