form of outdoor sports Is now reQuis-
lite Of all members Of the various Stu
dent Army Training Camps through
out the country. Massed athletics for
college students, long a pet theory OF

few instances Of practical application,
this week took concrete form at many
of the colleges when the military au-
thorities compelled each s~tudent-soi-
der to select his favorite sport for
daily exercise.
Taking the S. A. r. c. as a working
basis. competing teams have been or
ganized in each military company.
They will continue their preliminary
practice for q few days before engag-
ing rival company teams in contest.
The physical education department
of the college, which is cooperating
with the military authorities, pre-
pared a list of ten elective sports.
Each student was permitted to choose
n branch, with the understanding
that changes a be made later. ac-
cording to the weather conditions
which may halt some forms of the
activities.
In accordance with the War Depart
ment's f1xed schedule. the period from
4:30 o'clock to 6 o'clock is set aside for
~recreative sports five days each week.

letics n the contests will be played
Saturday afternoons. Representative
class teams will be selected later from
the best of the company players and
choice men in each sport will
eventually reach the varsity squads.
