OCR Text |
Show Golf is a good way to get some exercise and build your vocabulary simultaneously, although with intramural dubs it's mostly the latter. Plenty of good golfers were exposed by the intramural program never the less. You can't imagine how funny a scholar's legs look until you see him in a track meet. The intramural meet looked something like a field day for knock knees and bow legs, although some of those underpinnings showed amazing speed and agility. The lettermen won this event by ringing in the track squad, but the club dubs went down fighting. Swimming is a wonderful sport in that it not only provides enjoyment and health but also gets you clean. Intramural managers Deis, Freeman, and Hatch didn't overlook its possibilities for all-around participation. Swimming Ping Pong Intramural ping pong is one of the more popular diversions because the ping pong table is becoming the center of men's activities at Weber. It's an intricate sport-much harder than it looks-and it does wonders for a weak right arm or faulty coordination. Several big scale tournaments have been con- ducted this year without the loss of so much as a single eye. |
