IM Sports--
(Continued from page fourteen)
2000 students were members of
touch football and basketball
squads. There were 103 teams
playing touch football at night
under the floodlights.
The IM program was inaugu
rated 28 years ago by Lion foot
ball coach Hugo Bezdek. Bezdek
piloted the Lion gridders from
1918 to 1929. He managed the
Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team
during the 1918 and 1919 cam
paigns and reported late as the
Nittany grid mentor in 1919 be
cause of his pro baseball com
mitments. In the 30's, Bezdek
coached the now defunct Cleve
land Ram football team.
Until 1946, the program was
run by a system of student
managers, similar to that run
by varsity sports. But its draw
backs, such as limited records
and lack of time, forc ed its
abandonment after World War
I'.
The present system does not
exclude students from its man
agement. Each fraternity and
dormitory unit has an athletic
chairman who organizes the
teams and keeps the players in
formed on playing -dates, times
and special announcements. Also
students, mostly varsity athletes,
assist in officiating intramural
competition.
The remainder of the program
—generally taken for granted by
the average student —is carried
out by the IM office. The intra
mural department's staff is in
complete charge of printing all
schedules, formulating and pub
lishing rules and announcement
sheets and maintaining records.
The IM department mimeo
graphs announcements stating
the entry deadline for each
sport, entry fees, rules, starting
times, types of tourneys (sin
gle elimination or round robin)
and explaining certain draw-

When the fees were consoli

items, such as the damage de

Daily Collegian and for student

This consolidation was deemed
necessary to stabilize the fee
structure and to guarantee a
steady source of income for es

ents, a student leader will see the unfeasibility of it and have
to speak against it.
This will incur the wrath of his fellow students. How
ever, and this is the point, if he has a sincere desire to exe
cute the responsibilities of his position, he will assume this
burden, because he has the inner confidence of knowing that
what he is doing he believes to be right.
Therefore, remember to inspect and analyze each situ
ation, and don't be discouraged by apparent failures.
Always try, and try hard, and in the end you will be
successful. Assume these burdens and fulfill your responsi

backs of competition. Most IM
basketball teams must play a
few Friday night contests and
playing dates can not be
changed because of the light
schedule for the use of Recrea
tion Hall.
Due to the lack of facilities,
classes and varsity sports, 80 per
cent of the IM action takes place
after dinner hours (5 to 6:15 p.m.
and 50 per cent after 9 p.m.

was $5 annually. All or part of
this was refunded at the close

on deductions.
By 1914, the deposit had been
