Pae Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wednesday, September 17, 1975 Intramurals face space age By ENID GOLDMAN .I After far too many years of battling the crowds at the an- tiquated IM building on Hoov- er Street, students and faculty will soon be able to pursue their recreational, intramural, and club sport interests in two new, spacious facilities. The new IM structures, which will be ready for use by Sep- tember 1, 1976, are the only ones to be built since 1928, when the University of Michi- gan dedicated the Hoover Street edifice as the first intra- mural building in the country. WITH THE ADDITION of the two facilities, now nearing com- pletion behind Bursley-Baits on North Campus, and on Central Campus in the Hill area, the University of Michigan will once again have more indoor recreational space than any campus in the United States. "For a few years, until Ohio SHOWN HERE IS THE NEW Intramural Sports building on North Campus. This facility, as well as the one being built on Central Campus, will be ready for use by Fall, 1976. The two buildings make Michigan the leading school in the country in providing indoor recreation for its students. To help pay for the new facilities, students will be assessed a fee of $10. State completes its multi-mil- lion dollar structures, there won't be anyone in the country who can match our facilities area-wise," confirmed Dr. Mi-, chael Stevenson, Associate Di- rector of recreational, intra- mural and club sports. Students will be assessed a fee of $10 to help pay for the new constructions, which will resemble the Hoover Street IM building in basic lay-out. THE CENTRAL CAMPUS building will feature a multi- purpose gym floor - lined to accommodate nine badminton courts, four basketball courts, four tennis courts and six vol- leyball courts. Nine handball / paddleball courts and three squash courts have also been constructed with space available for two addi- tional handball / paddleball courts and three squash courts if funding can be arranged. A one-eighth mile track, men and women's locker rooms, a first aid room, a martial arts room, offices and physical edu- cation classrooms, comprise the rest of the building. Swimmers will continue to utilize adjacent 21 - year - old Margaret Bell Pool. In all, the new facility will be slightly larger than the Hoover Street construction. THE TOTAL PROJECTED cost of the Central Campus and North Campus IM buildings is about $8 million. Most of the $3 million allotted for the North Campus building, however, will go towards the construction of an indoor pool with outdoor sun- deck/patio. The North Campus building will be about two-thirds the size of the Central Campus build- ing, and willralso include abgym marked off for three badminton courts, two and one-half bas- ering to married students and mural ketball courts, one tennis court faculty; and "special event" to hold and three volleyball courts. type of activities such as all the ne There will also be five hand- night mixers ,trivia bowls, con- studen ball / paddleball courts, two certs and card games. whena squash courts, one-eighth mile "Depending on student inter- dentsr track, a weight room, an exer- est and need we'll see what di- sits w cise room, equipment room, rection to take," Dr. Stevenson and th first aid room, conference emphasized. increa room, offices, and men and wo- Though a committee of stu- better men's locker rooms. dents, faculty, and administra- would Both buildings are not only tors concurred on plans for they c intended to alleviate overcrowd- the new buildings, the student to ass ed conditions but also to create body at large was not asked for the space needed for developing its opinion of the proposed con- The new programs. struction. in Aug "With these three facilities, "I haven't heard anyone com- as par plus the Coliseum (on Fifth and plain about it," Dr. Stevenson cluded Hill), we hope to encompass stated.
