That's where the picnic conies in.
Students can pick up a volleyball or
iost anything else athletic on their
way to 11411 0imp, another area of
intramural activity.
Coordinating this scramble of
athletic activity is Tom Webb, di
rector of i n t r a m u r a I s. "Each.
year," Webb said, "we try to set
up the best possible program to
handle as many people who want
to compete as possible."
That program includes 20 inde
pendent and 15 fraternity teams
playing football, softball, basket
ball, bowling, swimming, t r a c k.
golf, volleyball, putt-putt, p i n g
pong, tennis and badminton.
The intramural o f f i c e sets the
schedule of games, provides the ref
erees and keeps the records of the
results. In addition Webb and his
cohorts distribute equipment a n d
keep the equipment in shape.
That maintenance program even
includes sewing up the torn jer
seys that result from over-eager
ness in flag football games. This
task is usually the realm of secre
tary Fran Drake.
Webb has far-ranging plans to
expand the scope of the intramural
department to include more exten

pansion in other areas that may!
hamper his program.
For instance, the new athletic com
plex and walkway will wipe out two
intramural fields now being used
for football and softball.
Webb explained, "I have to get
the best possible program set up
using the facilities I have now..
The athletic c o m p I e x won't be
ready for about two years and we
have to have the facilities for next
year now.
"In the next two years there will
be an increase in the number of
students and a decrease in space
for athletic facilities. I think the
students are interested in the pro
gram here and I think they deserve
the facilities. What we need is
complete cooperation from every
one involved."
Webb would like to expand the'
recreation facilities for those stu
dents who don't compete in orga
nized intramural sports by getting.
more tennis courts and lighting the
ones that are now available.
"I feel the students are getting
shortchanged on facilities," he said.
"I think the University should take
a long look at the facilities now
availab',. You can't play football
and softball indoors, and the fields
are being taken up by the athletic
complex."
