The direction and the supervision of intramural sports are placed in the hands of Mr. Paul H. Boyts. Assisting him are two senior managers and two assistant managers, chosen by the Athletics Committee. Each manager serves two semesters — one as an assistant and one as manager. Upon completion of his term he is given an intramural service award, the intramural jacket. The chief aims of the program as developed at Indiana are to teach and train students in athletics for after-school life; to develop habits of good sportsmanship and fair play; to ac- quire a knowledge of the rules and skills required to gain greater enjoyment in participation and observation; and to prepare stu- dents to organize and promote intramural sports in the public schools. To the three members of the senior class who have been most active in intramural athletics is presented the intramural jacket. This presentation is based on the point system. Any senior having more than 250 points is eligible to take the competitive examination on all four major sports — basketball, football, volleyball, and soft ball— that are presented by the intramural department. The three highest scorers on these tests are awarded jackets. To the others participating is presented the official intramural emblem or efficiency award. 144
