lntramt Basketball, baseball, football, and mixed volleyball made up a well rounded intra- mural program this year. Grades seven through twelve participated in these various activities. Mr. Robert Kawaguchi was the head of the first semester program. Mr. Rich- ard Machida took over the second semester. Students enjoyed the activities very much although they were mainly planned for boys.
