The Sports Connection Intramural sports programs are one of the oldest organized forms of sports in American colleges and univ- ersities. The early programs were the result of student leaders wishing to participate in leisure-time athletic act- ivities of their own choosing. The In- tramural and Recreation Board spon- sor all intrfmural activities on the campus at PBJC. The board receives it ' s financing from a share of the act- ivity fee paid by the students. INTRAMURAL OBJECTIVES Intramural objectives are realistic goals, based on the phylosophies, ne- eds, and capabilities of individuals and institutions, that the directors of the programs and the players seek to reach.

' Bout Ya North Bound? Palm Beach Junior College North has several active and growing organ- izations, as well as, the prospect of a new North Campus. The first of these is the Student Activities Committee, whose major function is the allocation of funds to all other clubs and organizations. They also provide discounts, performances, scholarships, and specail interest act- ivities for P.B.J.C. North students. Another active organization is the Alpha Gamma Sigma Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa. Although the chapter has been in existence for less than a year, they were among three chapters who applied for outstanding chapter at the 1978 State Convention held in St. Augustine. They did not receive the award, however, they were commend- ed for their acomplishments. Among these were carwashes, a political picnic, a self-defence seminar, a recycling project, and painting signs identifying the site of the New North Campus. They have also attended the State and National convention, Leader- ship Conference, and honors Institute. There will soon be a New North Campus on P.G.A. Blvd. in Palm Beach Gardens, construction is expected to begin next year. It will offer more ideal facilities and add unity to our student body. In addition, the North Campus will be forming a Business Club open to all business-minded students attending P. B.J.C. North. The Business Club already has approximately twenty in- terested members. ;{: Pamela McDaniel
