The Interhigh Council-that ex-
ecutive body under the new Blrcn
E. Bayh physical education pro-
,gram-has had tits first meeting
and discussed tits first plans Tor
the 1936-37 school term.
The new council promises 10
function with complete success, II
indications of yesterdays initial
caucus at the Franklin School are
Of any worth at all.
OF course yesterdays meeting
was mostly to get organized. Inc
usual order of business-electlon
of officerS-took up a great deal
of time. But next and most I'M
portant were the discussions on
sports events during the current
and forthcoming seasons.
The 1896 interhigh football
schedule as drawn up by the
principals last spring was accepted
BY the new council. This means
games will be played at every
stadium, beginning with the Roose'
Velt-Western opener next Tues
day at Western.
Concrete Plans Set
In reference to basketball, moth
ing definite was decided upon.
But concrete plans are in the
minds of the council which promise
to be acted upon as soon as the
football campaign is put aside 1or
another year. III,
These plans have to do with
the rearrangement of the schedule
whether the double-header sys-
tenn will be brought back; whether
Friday night games can be ar
ranged at the Tech gymnasium,
or whether the present system OF
single games at the Tech ana
Roosevelt floors will be continued
on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Woodrow Wilson will enter the
basketball series. The school also
will become a member Of the In
terhigh League in baseball. This
will increase the number OF teams
to six, adding no doubt to the
interest of the entire interhlgh
setup and bringing about a bal
@nced schedule.

meeting were numerous. The coun-
Gil lest it is forgotten, is composed
of two representatives from each
school, one of whom is faculty
man, the other a physical educa-
ton director.
