New Intramural Director
When I came to A&M three yars ago intramurals had
just finished a season that could be called anything but
successful. TTien Les Palmer moved from a teaching pisition
in the Health and Physical Education Department to become
IMA director and gave the program new life. Palmer was
just the transfusion that was needed to bring the necessary
participation to an all time high. During his tenure he
established the beginnings of a girls program, involved off-
campus housing and fraternities, made practice equipment
available to all intramural teams and expanded the program
to six classes or leagues.
The burden of taking overe where Palmer left off now
falls on the shoulders of Dennis Corrington. Corrington
comes to A&M after serving as assistant director of intra
murals at the University of Texas (nobody’s perfect). Cor
rington is not the only new face to be found around the IMA
office. For the first time in A&M’s history a full time
assistant director has been hired. Jim Jeter comes to Ag-
gieland after serving as physical fitness director and athletic
officer for the U. S. Army at Fort Hood. “The department
is in good hands,” said Palmer who now returns to full time
teaching duties in the P.E. department.
Something For Everybody
Student input in the program is vital, not only as
participants but as officials, spectators and supporters.
There is something for everybody in A&M intramurals.
Class A is military upperclassmen; B, military freshman;
C, resident hall males; G, Girls; X, off-campus frats and
clubs and Z, co-recreational. IMA runs programs in football,
volleyball, handball, tennis, golf, bowling, basketball, racquet-
ball, hand ball, pocket billiards, cross country, swimming,
wrestling, ping pong, track, horse shoes, softball. Over 27,
000 students participated in intramural sports last year
(counting duplications) with some 7,500 individuals.
Desparate For More Room
As A&M grows so must the intramural facilities but
this seems to be in direct conflict. Land that was earmarked
for future intramural use is now under consideration for
dormitory and classroom buildings. The Southern Associa
tion of Intramural Athletics has made a study of the exist
ing facilities and echoes the sentiments of more facilities.
Anyone who has waited to play handball for an hour can
testify to that.
A $500,000 proposal for a new intramural complex that
would make A&M’s program second to none was turned
down by the board of directors last year and is being resub
mitted again this year. There is no reason for A&M not to
have facilities to match the already fine program. Make
your wishes known to the administration and stop by De-
Ware field house and visit IMA. They have something for
everybody.

The Cowboy mentor said he
