Intramural facilities lack space
by Mark Gordon
Sports Editor
The University's physical
education and intramural
facilities are inadequate due
to a space shortage, ac
cording to a September land
use study by a Houston plan

In analyzing the
University's situation,

comparative ratio of space
needs to student enrollment.
The firm's recommendations
also account for six re

land.
This article will summarize
the Texas firm's analysis of
the University's situation,
while future articles will
concentrate on the firm's
recommendations and opi

officials.

recently, a friendly game of

boos. Colorado fans, quite

AFTER STUDYING
facilities and student enroll
ment at the Universities of
Wisconsin, Michigan, Purdue
and Ohio State, the firm
compiled the average number
of fields required per activity
based on number of particip
ants at this University.
The study assumed each
residence hall floor would
field a team to account for
fraternities and other
participating groups.
Although these minimum
facilities are provided as
guidelines, they do not pro
vide potential for program
changes, the Houston firm
said.
The group added that these
also do not provide adequate
space for a rotational field
system for preservation of the
turf.

University's projected
enrollment of 25,000 students
these guidelines suggest 34.4
acres while the above chart
lists only 33 acres.
In deciding the location of
the facilities, several con
siderations ranging from
walking distance to usage
capabilities were analyzed by
the Texas group.
The areas must be within 10
minutes walking distance
from the residence halls and
must be located near physical
education facilities for in
structional purposes and dual
usage of lockers and showers
by intramural participants,
the report said.
The physical education and
recreational areas must also

classrooms and related in

THE PHYSICAL education
and intramural fields could be
used by both departments
with proper scheduling of ac
tivities. For instance, the
physical education depart
ment could use the fields
from 8:30 am. to 3:30 p.m.
while intramurals could use
the same land from 4:30 p.m.
to 10 p.m.
This would allow a smaller

Moot Court
in national
competition
The University of Nebraska
moot court team Saturday
moved on to national com
petition in New York, N.Y. by
defeating the University of
Wisconsin in a regional con
test at Omaha.
The University team of Pill

burg will take part in the na
tional trials sponsored by the
Young Lawyers Committee of
the Association of the Bar of
New York City.
THE HYPOTHETICAL
case for the regional com
petition was the legality of the
United States' involvement in
Vietnam. Bill Harding won
the American Trial Lawyers
award for the best oral argu
ment for the second year
running.
In last year's national
competition, the University

Professors John Gradwohl

Interest only prerequisite
to continuing co-rec sports
The University's only co-
recreational athletic tourna
ment has ended, but the
Women's Athletic Association
Board is trying to generate
interest in additional co-
recreational athletic events,
according to JacE Conor, co
rec volleyball coordinator.
She said flyers have been
sent to womens' living units
to determine if sufficient in
terest exists to sponsor co
recreational double tennis,
badminton and bowling. She
added that the new Women's
Physical Education Building
has adequate facilities for
tournaments but student in
terest is necessary before
events can be scheduled.
"WE'VE NEVER had the
interest before or else we
would have had more mixed
tournaments," she said. "The
board is working real hard to
get up some more
tournaments."
Late directories
soon available
The long delayed Builder's
Student Directory will soon be
on sale for 50 cents at all book
stores.
The book has been delayed
because of a failure by the
administration to get required
information on registration
forms and a mix-up in ad
vertising, according to BUI
Mobley, Buzz Book chairman.
"THE ADMINISTRATION
failed to get Lincoln ad
dresses and phone numbers of
students on pre-registration
forms," Mobley said. "To
correct the mistake, they
asked for the information on
the Bursar's tuition state
ment."
"I sent this information to
the publishers on Oct. 1," he
added. "The University and
Builders cannot be blamed for
the delay after that date."
It normally takes 20 days
after sending the material to
be published to receive the
finished books, Mobley con
tinued.
"In my mind the company
must assume responsibility
for the delay in getting
advertising," Mobley said.
