they have done some figuring

SOURCES IN THE Recreation
Dept. support the committee's
claim, and add that since there
has been more than a 40 per
cent increase in users in the
past year, there has in fact
been a decrease in recreational
space.
Michael Stevenson, head of
recreational sports, said about
DiGaetano's study, "He's dope

One of the questions Vance
will pursue with Arab leaders
later in the week is whether the
PLO national council at its
meeting next month is liable to
revise the provision in its "cove-
nant" calling for Israel's de-
struction. Such a move, accord-
ing to U.S. officials, could open
new possibilities for a settle-
ment.
VANCE, WHO HAS a low-key,
easy-going-manner, did not in-
dulge in the banter that char-
acterized former Secretary of
State Henry Kissinger's rela-
tions with reporters.
The secretary has said that he
wants to find what visions each
of the leaders he will visit have
for a future Middle East peace
settlement - and to determine
how flexible each is on resolv-
ing questions of procedure. He
has made clear that Palestinian
representation is the chief is-
sue.

On Thursday, Vance flies to

In Damascus, Syria, a PLO
spokesman told a news confer-

Senior Alan Cassels points out'
that both paddleball and rac-

who don't want contact sports,
like basketball. They can still
get exercise."
BOTH GAMES, contends sen-
ior Betsy Bacon, "are twos of
the few games women can play
against guys without too much

The reasons for the racquet-

go deeper than its ease for be-

Nevertheless, most students
shrug off the long lines and wait
patiently for their cherished,
one-hour time slots in the cav-

"If I belonged to a private
club," said Lyons, "I'd have
to pay an incredible amount of
money.
"The facilities here are really
good," he continued.. "If I want
to put in a time commitment,
then I can get a court. All it
takes is a little bit of planning."
However, Rowe warns, "If
you don't plan ahead it's a drag.
I think a lot more people are
playing now."
