At the beginning of this term the Intramural Athletic
Council was revived along its former lines to bring baek and
sustain the enthusiasm of intra-mural athletics. The Council is
composed of students members aided by certain faculty mem-
bers who are working together to bring back intra-murals to its
former prominence.
The school requires one year of physical training. During
that year about an hour and a half a week is spent in some form
of constructive evercise which is surely not enough as evidenced
by the report of the nation's health brought forth during the
war years.
The Athletic Department has the facilities, and it is doing
everything possible to make them available to each student.
There is no reason why each men's organization can not enter
at least one team in the forthcoming activities. There are dozens
of events carded and everyone should participate in some sport.
Freshmen particularly are invited to organize their teams now
and to continue them throughout their stay at the Institute.
Everyone can and should engage in some intramurals. Proper
support will resume a continuation of the great strides made
here in intramural competition during the past years.
The Thresher
Entered as second class matter,
October 17, 1916, at the post office

Skirts and sweaters still top the
list as favorites for winter campus
wear. An outfit that is sure to see
much use this winter was selected
by Miss Ava Jean McDaniel on
Battelstein's mezzanine. The bias-

and dusty pink plaid, and is priced at
$15.96. The 100% wool sweater set
is dusty pink. The slipover sweater
sells for $7.95 and the cardigan
sweater is $9.96.
