BOYS' ATI-ILETICS Although Bethany-Peniel College does not participate in inter-collegiate sports, this important phase of physical development is by no means overlooked. Starting with .softball in the fall and winding up with the annual track-meet in the spring, there is never an idle moment in the athletic department. The College administration fully appreciates the need of sufficient physical exercise for students who are giving the major part of their time to intellectual pursuits. Therefore, a definite program of physical education classes has been worked out along with an extensive intra-mural program . Competition in softball, basketball, and track is arranged between the . class organizations. Tennis, ping-pong, and horseshoes give ample opportunity for individual participation . To encourage outstanding performance and good sportsmanship, letters are awarded to those showing unusual ability. Those receiving a letter in any one of the sports are eligible for membership in the Redskins-better known as the Warriors and Squaws. The sports program this year has been enhanced greatly by the return of a number of war veterans. This has made possible a better quality of performance and a keener spirit of competition. Another factor contributing to the success of the athletic organization this year has been the remodeling of the gymnasium. During the summer months a new bandstand was built at the west end of the building. Also the entire interior was ceiled with celotex and new bleachers, capable of seating 800 persons, were installed.
