Intramural Rules Broken;
One Team, Different Name*
ay ten laivert
Emerald Editorial Assistant
Law professors played intra
mural basketball this winter if the
roster of the "Legal Eagles” bas
ketball team was any indication.
The team, composed of law stu
dents, was entered as a "B” squad.
It was later discovered that the
same men also were playing for
Barrister Inn under their own
names.
Majority Unnoticed
This is only one of the rule in
fractions which has been brought
to the attention of the intramurals
department his year. Others have
been caught, but the majority
seem to go unnoticed except by
opposing players.
The intramural office does not
accept the responsibility of check
ing players’ eligiblity. It is up to
the various team managers to spot
violators and report them to the
office.
Players, according to the intra
mural rule book, must be reg
ularly enrolled in the University
and affiliated with the organiza
tion for which they are playing.
Any player violating this rule
will be suspended from participa
tion for the rest of the year and
the team has to forfeit the game
in which the protest was made.
Men who have earned varsity
letters are not eligible to compete
in the intramural sport in which
they won their letters.
Protests Written
Protests of eligibility violations
must be made in writing to the
intramural director within 24
hours after the game has been
played. The case is then decided
by the Administrative board,
which hears both sides of the is
sue.
Protests on matters other than
eligibility must be made during
the game.
The Administrative board is
composed of Paul Washke, direc
tor of the program; Earl Fer
guson, assistant director and Bob
Robinson, Emerald sports editor.
Encourages Athletics
Oregon's intramural program is
set up to encourage as many men
as possible to compete in athletics
in a spirit of fair play and good
sportsmanship.
In order to bring more men into
the program, such sports as bas
ketball and volleyball are divided
into two "A" and "B" team per
participating organization.
Besides having a winner in each
sport, an intramural champion is
named at the end of the school
year. The championship is deter
mined by a point system and the
winning organization accumulates
the fnost points during the year.
Points are given for entering
competition and for winning.
Winners Lifted
Hale Kane was intramural
champion last year. Other winners
in recent years have included Min
turn hall (Hale Kane), Thi Delta
Theta, Sigma Chi, Alpha Tau
Omega, Sigma Nu and Beta The
ta Pi.
In intramural competition the
majority of rule infractions seem
to go unnoticed. Some participants
claim that it is common to find
a man playing on two or more
teams under different names.
Some also claim that men out
side the organization have been re
cruited to add strength to a weak
team.
Players who do not live in the
organization they are playing for
are eligible if they pay house or
dormitory dues.
Petersen is also director of th«
Pacific Mutual Life Insurance
company, the American Petroleum
Institute ami the Western Oil ana
Ghh association. He is a trustee of

ences, consulting professor of
