WRA Puts Emphasis
Solely on Recreation
Why doesn't Penn State have an intercollegiate sports
program for women? The answer to this is that Penn State is
a member college of the Pennsylvania Division of the Athletic
Federation of College Women and adheres to its constitution
which encourages recreation rather than competition.
To take place of intercol-'
legiate sports, the Women's Rec- to WRA's Hockey Play Day in
