FULL SPORT PROGRAM
OFFERED THIS SPRING
Value of Intra-Mural Competition Stressed
by Dean of Physical Education
By George H. Godfrey
The University physical education
department will offer a full program
of intramural sports this spring, an
nounced John F. Bovard, dean of the
school of physical education, yester
day. None of these sports will be
compulsory, however, he pointed out,
and any campus group may or may
not enter teams, just as they choose.
In commenting on the recent ac
tion of the interfraternity council in
abolishing all interfraternity sports,
Dean Bovard said, “The aim of the
physcal education department in of
fering intramural sports has never
been one of compulsion. Participa
tion in any athletic event has always
been up to the groups themselves.
The jjrogram for spring is much the
same as has been followed in the past.
We will notify the houses of the
events, such as baseball, tennis, and
track, and only ask if they let us
know if they desire to enter.
“Wo are more than pleased with
the idea of abolishing all awards in
sports. Some time ago we abolished
cups and similar trophies, and mere
ly continued tho plaque to satisfy
some who felt that some sort of re
cognition should be offered.”
An intramural, though not neces
sarily inter-fraternity sports program,
should be followed by the University,
tho dean firmly believes. Whether
tho abolishment of interfraternity
sports was wise or not has not been
decided, it is pointed out. Just how
tho students will take to the pro
gram offered by the physical educa
tion department will largely form a
basis for further study.
“Fully 75 per cent, or three fourths
of the men students of tho Univer
sity, take part in intramural ath
letics in somo form during the year,”
Dean Bovard stated, “and at least
90 per cent o£ the men participate in
athletics inclusive of non-competitive
games. The large number of men
out for athletics is a sign of an in
terest in sports, it is said, anrl this
interest is beneficial, both to the in
dividual and to the school as a whole
Actual participation gives to the stu
dents a better understanding of the
various games, and incites greater in
terest in the varsity athletics.
“The greatest gain, I believe,”
Dean Bovard said, “is that the stu
dents get acquainted with each other
in the most wholesome way. Acquain
tanceship leads to friendship, and
friendships formed at the University
are one of the most valuable features
of college life. The man who gets
out and mixes with his fellowmen is
better able to understand the many
problems that arise, and we believe
that on the court, the field, and the
track, an excellent basis for under
standing can be maintained.”
The' benefit accruing to varsity
teams through a good program of
intramural athletics is hard to esti
mate, but it is huge, believes the
dean. Many a man has “found him
self” while trying out for a house
team, and it is natural to assume that
a coach has a better chance of select
ing a winning team from among sev
eral hundred men than from the com
parative few who answer the call for
varsity practice. Besides that, it
is pointed out, the men who play in1
minor games will be stimulated to
takw a greater interest in varsity
contests, and thereby a more hearty i
support for the University teams is
built up.
Several persons interested in cam
pus athletics have come to conclusions
regarding an intramural program at
the University. These opinions will
be expressed with reasons in articles
to follow.
ART OF CAMPUKING
TAUGHT TO STUDENTS
Course Is Given Primarily
for Geology Majors
To learn the process of cooking as
simplified and adapted for camping
is the purpose of the camp-cooking
class organized this term by Miss
Lilian Tingle of the University
household arts department.
Approximately 25 men and women
have enrolled in the course. One un
usual thing about the class this year
is that the women make up the ma
jority of the class, while last year
there wore ten men ami one woman.
The course is given only in the
spring term. It is given primarily
for geology majors. Yet those en
rolled in the class are taking the
work from various angles. Physical
education majors are interested in
the course from a reeeation camp
point of view, for summer camp work,
from the personal angle and from the
business angle. Geology and forest
ry students take up the course because
of the nature of their work, which re
quires the principles of cooking as
taught in the camp-cooking class.
The class is divided into two sec
tions, each of which meets twice dur
ing the week. There are two lectures
a week, and practical laboratory work
is done during the meal hour.
The course deals with the food
needs of the body, and the selection
of camp supplies and equipment such
as are needed in different types of
camps, either permanent or movable,
and which may be transferred by ma
chine, horseback or afoot.
Baking, steaming, frying and boil
ing of camp foods are studied. Types
of foods studied include fish, game
and other moats, dried fruits and
vegetables, wild fruits and vege
tables, cereal and legume foods. The

day of training and held a short
bunting and fielding workout in the
outer gvm, merely to loosen up the
players’ muscles. He had the men
scoop in easy grounders and throw
in to the plate, but didn’t let any
of them cut loose to any extent.
With the weather warming tip in
true spring fashion, it is only a ques
tion of days until the frosh tossers
will be practicing in earnest. There
is no regular field ready for them to
practice on and for the present the
sessions will probably be held on the
mound of the drill field. It is not
the smoothest place in the world to
judge and hit ground balls on, but
will have to do for the present at
least.
Some of the players hav|e been
throwing around for some time and
as a result are in pretty fair shape.
There are some fast men signed up
for baseball on the frosh squad and
the prospects for the present point
towards a speedy nine.
Suits and equipment have been is
sued to twenty-seven men up to last
night. The men who have drawn their
equipment and signified their inten
tion of turning out for the sport are:
Launt, Llewwellyn, Christensen,
Wrightman, Dallas, E. Johnson,
Crosthwaite, West, Watts, Miller, Al
fred, Schulte, Brooks, Stovall, De Las
sus, Officer, Jones, Russell, Collins,
Cowart, Husband, Adolph, Dutton,
Wingard, O. Napier, Schroeder, Kim
inki. Any others desiring to turn
out may get their suits at the outer
gymnasium.

A number of leading professional
jockeys and veteran picture people
were treated to thrills galore at
Anaheim, California, recently, when
a special pre-view of “Little John
ny Jones” was given.
Most of the attention of those in
the audience was centered on the
horse race scene in which Johnny
Hines, star of the. picture, rides the
winner.
Coming out of the theater, re
marks could be heard to the effect
that this was the best “flat” race
ever taken for a motion picture.
“Little Johnny Jones” is from ttte
story by George M. Cohan and was
recently completed by Director Ar
thur Rosson.
It is a classic of the screen, and
will play at the Rex theater, begin
ning today, as the feature attrac
tion, for two days.
