We Also Dye Shoes Any’color “Best In Our Line” 219 W. 4th St. DIAL 4901 d Sports Rambling Shall we go play a game of birdies and rackets over a high net? You know—most people call it badmin,- ton, but I really see nothing “bad” about it, and confidentially I don’t see where the “minton” comes from either. So with cattish curiosity out of band, let’s take a look at somebody who knows. According to the Encyclopedia Americana, the game now called badminton is in reality a modifi- eation of the very ancient game of battledore and shuttlecock. Which game, continues our authority, was a popular game invented in the 14th century tha^ employed the use of a bat shaped like a tennis racket and a shattlecock consisting of sc cork stuck with feathers. With this formidible background, the background, the object of the game is still to bat the formerly de scribed luet now slightly modi fied shuttlecock or birdie across a high net with the aforesaid bat or racket so as to keep the birdie in a most inconvenient position fdr 'your opponent and still Sold an advantage for your self. The verbatious encyclopedia con tinues with complicated court dimension and rules, but if you would really like to know more about the game, see Anne Douthit, and while you’re at it, sign up for the badminton tournament. So few around here seem to know what it’s all about that the de scription of the game might in troduce you to the sport. After an introduction, you should get better acquainted—so see you in the gym getting acquainted with bad-little-Minton! P. S. If you are’nt ‘ ‘ badly” in clined, try softball.

Many people have the erronious impression that physical education involves only the learning of sports- This demonstration is being given for the public to show that .here at Salem, physical education em braces more than the learning of sports, and to show some of the class activities that pr6ve this.
