:etbali. A. tournament n
and doubles will start October 17.
Unit managers are urged to sign men
for this sport immediately and get
their teams organized. A. and M. has
never had a winning tennis club. A
varsity man is always found in each
sport each year by the intramural
system. The more that enter for ten
nis the sooner we will have a win
ning team. The more that play the
keener the competition will be and
the more successful the tournament
will be.
A Volley ball tournament will also
be held in the middle of October. Fur
ther plans will be announced later for
this sport.
This year a different point system
for determining the championship of
each league and the college will be
used. The unit amassing the largest
number of points will be awarded
the flag this year. The sports will be
divided into two divisions: major
sports and special sports. Major
sports consist of basketball, football,
speedball, play ground ball, track, and
cross-country; special sports, boxing,
wrestling, golf, hand ball, and tennis.
For the major sports fifty points will
be given to each unit for each team
entered. The team must play the com
plete schedule or forfeit the entry
points. 10 points will be deducted for
each forfeited game. The league win
ner will be given 10 points and the
runner up 5 points. The college cham
pion will get 10 points and the run
ner up 5 points. The team winning
the cross country championship will
be awarded 10 points, second place?
points, third place 5 points, fourth
place 3 points, fifth place 1 point. The
winning swimming team receives the
same number of points as the cross
country teams. 50 points will be givei
each unit entering men in half the
events. The champion team gets 20
points, second place 15, third place
10, fourth place 5, fifth place 1.
In the special sports 2 points will
be gnven the unit for each man enter
ed. In case the man wins the cham-
pionship 5 points also will be given
the unit.
Each year the team winning the
championship in the respective sports,
receives trophies of some description,
well worth trying for.
