INTRAMURAL PROGRAM The intramural program is directed by the Department of Health and Physical Education, with supervision being given to the activities by a member of that department. The learning possibilities for the physical Education Majors is greatly enhanced since they are allowed to assist in the operation of the program, carrying out such duties as: officiating, setting up rules of eligibility, determining the number of persons to play with each team, etc. The following are activities included in the intramural program here at our school: Fall Touch Football Volley Ball Ping Pong Basketball Badminton 1. 2. 3. 4.

Swimming Track and Diving In conjunction with the sports listed above, the Physical Education program offers two other extra-curricular activities for the students of the school. Every second-semester Edu- cation Department starts preparing for its annual dance decital, and all persons interested in participating, or learning the dance are welcomed. The other outlet is the Saturday afternoon recreation hour, which is held in the Heckscher Gymnatorium every Saturday afternoon from one until three. Here games of a more recreative, and entertaining nature are played, and it is through these various activities that we hope to improve each student and prepare him, or her, for a fuller and more meaningful life in their academic as well as their social and leisure living.
