Increasing enrollment
necessitates new plan
Coeds attending the college of
agriculture this year will have a
specially equipped athletic field
for their own use, according to the
physical education department.
A field approximately 150 by
300 feet has been laid out just
south of the college activities
building, and is being seeded and
equipped for soccer, softball, and
any other outdoor games included
