Florida took the road at the beginning of the season and decisively defeated Auburn, 67 to 7, Georgia Tech, 45 to 255 Georgia, 46 to 295 and Tennessee, 52 to 26, at Auburn, Atlanta, Athens and Knoxville. - Then the Gators returned here for several days' practice before their only home meet against Miami. After a siege of misgivings dur- ing which Coach Frank Genovar all but took flown his hair over the prospect of his swimmers going down in defeat, the team barely eked out a scant 63 to 11 pomelling of Miami. Tampa cancelled a meet scheduled to have been held here. Highly favored, the team then marched 011 to Knoxville for the second time to win again. Most of the team will be back next season. Skipper will be missed and Bennett Allen will be lost by graduation. Wlrsily Swimming M Imager Ancmcn SMITH

I FLCRIDA DUTCH S'rANl.i:Y, Director Tina INTRAMUIMI. program this year, under the direction of D. K. Dutch Stanley, reached the greatest heights in its fifteen-year career. More sports were offered, there were more competitors, and the interest was greater. The program is recognized as being one of the best in the colleges and universities throughout the South. Repre- sentatives ol' many other institutions of higher learning have visited our campus to study the program developed by efficient directors and especially by the enthusiastic interest and cooperation of the entire student body. Intramurals were started on the Florida campus in l923. At that time the program offered a schedule ol' four sports, this year, fifteen sports were presented in the three different leagues-fraternity, dormitory and independent. Perhaps the greatest reason for the intramural dc- partment's large strides, in addition to the driving force behind the program, is l lorida's natural setting in lo- cation and clilnatc which is so conducive to outdoor sports during the entire school year. Few other schools Wnrri-:Y MCMUl.l.l'1N, Secretary anywhere can offer as much in the way of' competitive sports and recreational athletics as can the University of Florida. The road to success, these past fifteen years, has not been smooth. Since those early days in the 20's, the intra- mural program has seen itself altered and improved many times. Now the departn1ent's well regulated schedule of events, eflieient directors and managers, timely and at- tractive bulletins and attractive handbook, all denote a smooth-running and well-built organization. The constant addition of needed facilities and equipment has made it possible that cvcry man benefit in pleasure and health as a participant, instead of' a mere spectator, in his favorite sport. The advantages offered by intramural competition in relation to varsity athletics were never more forcefully brought to the attention of all tllan by the recent success ol' intramural athletes on the various varsity teams. Among the many new developments in this year's pro- gram was the inauguration of cross-country track as a new sport. This event was installed on a trial basis.
