A well balanced education consists of enrichment for the body as well as for the mind. Many students found this enrichment in the activities sponsored by the Intramural and Recreation Board. The program began this term with a flag-tag football tournament with a round robin schedule and elimination play- offs. Five term entries with a total of 63 members participated 206 times. Trophies were awarded to The Unknowns, who won the tournament with a five game undefeated season. Phi Da Di received second place honors followed by the Lake Worth Ladies. In women ' s bowling, five teams totaling 24 members participated 75 times. Debbie Leonard, Judi Salzgeber, Elizabeth Daniel, and Lori Boyd combined talents to win the women ' s division with a team called the B.J ' s. Salzgeber bowled the high game, Leonard earned the high average and Ingrid Sainis rolled the high series. Eighteen men bowled on four teams led by the Hong Kong Charlies who scored 8956 points to take the men ' s title. Team members were: Wong Fai (high game), David Chang (high average), Tony Choy (high Series), Pat Mak and Dave Hetrick. The top eight bowler from each category qualified to represent PBJC in the sixth annual PBJC bowling tournament. Seven schools participated in the meet which was won by iVIiami Dade North who also won the womens ' title. Broward North finished first in coed bowling. Carl Kidd, Jay Farnsworth, Hamid Faquir and Francis Ledbetter were the winners in the men ' s womens, men ' s faculty, and women ' s faculty division for the annual turkey trot. Nine players entered the men ' s intramural tennis tournament which consisted of 28 matches. Gary Cody won the elimi- nations followed by Joan Campbell and Eli Wilner. The open gym and sports walking proved to be very popular, with 567 participations. Fifteen members participated 150 times in gymnastics and 18 members participated 72 times in karate. A total of 849 students made use of the intramural facilities 1438 times during the Fall term. I feel the program has been very successful this term, said Roy Bell, director of the intramural program. We still have a long way to go. Bell says several new twists are being added to the agenda next term, one of which will be a jogging club. The new activity is organized by Guy Richter as a stimulus for physical fitness. The club will offer the students a chance to receive T-shirts as awards for completing distances in multiples of 110 miles up to two and a half miles a day.
