Director of the Division of Athletics and Physical Education. WILLIAM B. LECKONBY seeks more uniform requirements for athletes in the Middle Atlantic Conference. PAUL E. SHORT, Assistant Director of the Division of Ath- letics, manages the financial affairs of the department. Fitness tests give)} to new arrivals. . . After an absence of several years, John S. Steckbeck has returned to campus as director of physical education. Accompanying him were several innovations designed to make the program more beneficial and attractive for the 700 frosh and assorted upperclassmen en- trusted to his care. The new arrivals first banged into a comprehensive physical fitness test, probably patterned after the Army ' s ambitious Daily Dozen. For several weeks Taylor gym was the scene of running, jumping, pushing, pulling and panting freshmen attempting to establish im- pressive physical norms for the class. The beginning of regular gym classes marked the introduction of another strenuous program. Developed specifically for individuals who do little or no exercising other than in gym classes, the Lehigh Conditioner consisted of ten repetitive exercises designed to acti- vate many important muscles. Although the participants did not fully appreciate the conditioner. they had to admit it had done wonders for their young bodies. New blood was also pumped into the intramural program. Besides the usual opportunities in football, basketball, bowling and others, fraternity and non-fraternity jocks found all-school competition in foul-shooting, weight lifting and billiards. The Lehigh program also boasts the most extensive intramural wrestling competition in the country. 143
