TODAY In order to promote interest in the flashcard section, it will be recognized as a major student ac tivity. A group of alternates will also be selected. If a student miss es a game he will be dropped from the activity and an alternate put in his place. Previous Attempts Fail Previous attempts at forming a flashcard section have failed be cause of poor student participa tion. Volunteers for the section will be given seats on the 50-yard line at football, games. The Centennial Committee also decided to ask Thespians to sponsor some sort of contest be tween the University and the Uni versity of Pittsburgh. The aim of the contest would be to build a tradition of rivalry around the an nual football games between the two universities. Format Not Decided The format for the contest has not been decided. However, it was suggested the contest be of the type that could be conducted sep arately on each campus. Finalists would be chosen in each contest and the winner would be selected from the finalists at the football' game. The Centennial Committee will ask students to suggest specific plans for the contest through a suggestion box at the Hetzel Un ion desk. The committee will screen the suggestions and turn them over to Cabinet in the report. • Plans for the contest have not yet been presented to Pitt. Kra koff said he felt it would be bet ter if plans were worked out in detail before Pitt were ap-' pouched.

McCoy, dean of the College of Physical Education and Athletics, told the Penn State Alumni Club last night. Speaking before 100 alum hall, McCoy said recreational University has grown. Until the present time, McCoy ! I said, the only additions made to athletic space has been the addl_ . tion to Recreation Hall. This was financed from profits of the gate receipts of , athletic contests. How ever, under the present program, areas which were thought unus able previously, are now being converted into recreational areas. !Many Plans Aired Present plans for the 16% acres behind Nittany dorm's call for a total of 16 softball diamonds, which could be completed by spring, McCoy said. Also planned for the Nittany area are six bas ketball courts, 12 volleyball fields, and a small building to be built this spring as a shower and lock erroom. McCoy also expressed the hope that ten new tennis courts would be built on the south end of the University golf course. Need For Now Building Speaking on the problem of in dor recreation, McCoy said there was a definite need for another building other than Rec Hall to house 20 handball courts and a large number of basketball courts. These courts, when the necessity arose, could be used as class rooms, McCoy said. The problem of play areas for women is also serious. McCoy stated. Previous play areas have been converted into parking lots and buildings, he said, until the only area remaining is Holmes Field. He expressed a- desire to build an area on the Jordan ex perimental plots in the future. Speaking on the subject of in tercollegiate activities, McCoy told the alumni athletic programs could no longer be considered small time. Big Evil Is Subsidation The main evil of big-time sports, he said, is subsidation. He stressed the fact that the Uni versity does not give special priv lieges to athletes. Any man with special ability must pass _all en- trance requirements like other students. he said. Athletes are iven no favors, "and must main- Jain' acceptable scholarship rat ings to remain in school. Athletes may receive grants in aid if their grants are good. The most an athlete may receive is room, board. and tuition, he said. Grants are good for four years, whether or nbt the man makes an athletic team. The major requisite for athletic grants, McCoy stated, is scholarship. FRATERNITY & SORORITY •' .
