Since “rush week'’ has really
rushed most of us. we have not as
yet had time to get our volleyball
itor*i* (l; however, we have seven
teams competing. These teams and
their captains are as follows;
Freshmen Teams:
Roi’kets Hilda Massey
Little Keists Ruby Basemore
Blue Devils Janice Sadler
ters Jane Barnes
Vagabonds . Sybil Bass
Phi Sigma Tau Mary L. brinkley
Sigma Tau Chi Nancy Brown
I know that with this fine group
of captains and their respective
ptoyer: the competition should be
nightly keen. Remember. Intra-
mtirals are what we as individuals
n&ak( them, so let's get off to a
good beginning by supporting our
teani.
The intramural program has a
point system by which individuals
earn awards. If a girl Is a mem
ber of a team and participates in
at least two-thirds of her team’s
fam< in that sport, she is en
titled to receive twenty-five points.
If her team should win the champ-
IOfishlJ^ she is entitled to ten
tUDTi- points and if she shoukl
make the All-Star Team, she wins
an additional ten points.
For further information concern
ing the intramural point system
and the awards that may be earn
ed, consult our little Intramural
fliJKlUx>k. The program is de-
irigncd for your enjoyment and
not Just for points, but we feel
that everyone has a little more
interest and competitive spirit if
we have a goal to obtain.
In closing I'd like to quote our
l^ort‘rnan’s Prayer as It is given
in 'our handbook and remind ev-
tryone that there is one thing nrK>re
tei>>rtant and far-reaching than
l^n::.g. This, of course, is good
8port.smanship.
•*Lord in the battle that goe.s
• on through life, I ask but a field
that Is fair. A chance that is equal
with all in the strife, a courage
to strive and to dare.
If I should win, let it be by the
codir, ^ .
With my faith and my honor held
high , .
If I should loose, let me stand
by the road,
And cheer as the winners go by.

I The Intramural t>»partment has
I been working extremely hard, but
|becau*e of bad weather and sched
uling conflicts the program Is
running somewhat behind sched
ule. The competition in Clock Golf,
our first activity, has already been
completed. Caldwell Hall showed
its power by sweeping the number
one and two gpoUt.
rfcug Gregg was the first to tre
ioff. Gregg came through with a
sparkhng 26, which looked like a
' sur6 thing during most of the
['•^’rnt- On the final day, howev
er. Rex Cou;>er. freshman from
Washington, took top honors with
an astounding 25. Defending
champion. Ralph Gray, ran into
trouble and shot a high 32. There
were approximately 75 boys who
took part in this event .setting a
new record for iiKllvidual activi
ties.
Tennis competition got under
way on October 1. with 66 boy.t
entered. Tliere can be no particular
favorites in this years event. Gur
ney Collins, last year’s cham^on,
graduated; therefore the number
one spot is left wide open.
The lAA Council has published,
for the first time, an intramural
bulletin to be presented to each
male student enrolled. This bulle
tin gives a complete roundup of
the intramural program, its activi
ties. eligibility, and point system.
At its first meeting the lAA elect
ed J. B. Slaughter, Sigma Rho Phi,
president and Jimmy Matthews.
Phi Kappa Alpha, vice-president.
Tommy Willis serves as secre-
tary-treasurer by virtue of his posi
tion. student director.
Football begins within a week or
two. Sigma Rho Phi, winner for the
past two years, lost only one start
er from its lineup and will be go
ing after its third straight unde
feated season. But the competition
' will be much stronger, with Phi
;Ka(jpa Alpha and Caldwell Hall
{dethroning the Rho boys. Bol)
j Wimberly, star for Sigma Rho, will
,be hard to stop, l)ut we’re look
ing forward to a thrilling foott>aU
season.
Sigma Rho Phi
The combined efforts of the
girls of Omega Chi sorority and
