INTRXMURA lnconvenienced by use of only half a field, intramural lacrosse men were divided into two groups, One of these, composed of Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, played intra- murals under the coaching of Mr. Monroe. The other half made up Webb's first J. V. lacrosse team. Under Mr. Ring they drilled and scrimmaged in preparation for games with Riverside. Scores of their games were: Webb 5 Riverside T3 Webb 9 .... Riverside 7 Webb 4 Riverside 6 Members of both the J.V. and intra- mural teams, with broken sticks and scarred faces, will help make up the Varsity next year. The intramural sports program of- fers any student the opportunity for training, exercise, and keen, yet friendly, competition in several sports. The program can be aptly described by one wo rd-fu n. Coached by faculty members with an interest in athletics, it provides an outlet for student steam, yet the workout is not over-strenuous, and even the smallest aspiring athlete is given the opportunity to compete on his level. ln many participants the creation of an interest in sports is combined with acquired ability, enabling the student to make an ex- cellent showing in interscholastic sports. A spirit of co-operation and fellowship pervades every hour of the program, so that besides the physical exercise there arises an at- titude beneficial to the participant in any activity. LS With bleeding shins and grimy faces, the intramural soccer men again completed a season on the barren lower field. Coached by Messrs. Mil- ler, Weiss, Monroe, and Walker, the six teams withstood calisthenics and laps to fight daily ,contests on three whittled-down soccer fields. Com- petition was stiff, particularly be- tween the Rovers and Hotspurs. At the close of the season the team standings were as follows. Hotspurs first, followed by the Rovers, Athlet- ics, Argyles, Rangers, and the Wan- derers. They also serve who only stand and wait. Ball twelve, take your base.
