Live- A. May, director of the gymnasium, when pressed for information in re- gard to the present state and future prospects of physical education at at Michigan. "At the present every one of the 3300 lockers is taken and there is a demand for 200 or 300 more but there is no place to put them. The building is being used to its full capacity. We are trying to develop indoor physical aptivity, but greater facilities for every phase are needed for practical work," declared Dr. May. Running Full Blast The director stated that the gym is running full blast pretty nearly every night through the year as basketball practice now starts before the foot- ball season is over. In the day time, the closest co-operation is needed be- tween the track coaches and the gym- nasium director to divide the limited floor areas between the 1500 freshmen; taking required work and the indoor training of highly specialized Varsity athletic teams. This is becoming more of an impediment to the; work in the gymnasium all the time. . "Michigan should be taking an ac- tive part in every type of indoor' ac- tivity like the other Conference' schools-in such sports as wrestling, boxing and swimming," declared Dr. May. "While we now have a boxing instructor, there is no one to teach wrestling, and only a trifling amount; of space can be given over to these sports." Freshman track and basketball, as well as intramural competition, are' being developed this year more than ever before to provide feeders for the Varsity teams next year, according to Dr. May. Baseball practice indoors has been seriously hampered because of the limited floor area; there should be enough room to form an indoor diamond at least. Track men are now confined to practice on board floor, while with the present schedules, meets taking place on dirt track. Weather Stops Exercises "Variable weather conditions make it necessary for us to discontinue all required physical exercise after the spring recess when men should be playing games in the open," stated Dr. May. "This is necessary because there are no dressing or bathing f a- cilitiesrnear any large playing field. The ideal location for a gym would be near such a field where we could have classes indoors or out as the weather permitted. It is not my idea to stop classes at spring recess, but we have to now. I'm strong for games -outdoor games. For physical exer- cise, to do any material good, must be consistent all the year round. "The questfon arises whether there should be separate units-two build- ings-one for the training of Varsity teams and the other for required class work. This would solve the problem of schedules, which are very hard to apply in so large a University. Such a building plan would entail the expenditure of a vast sum of money and should be, done along the lines of greatest effectiveness. "One plan would be to have a large building where both could be ade- quately taken care of for years to come. This would solve the problem of getting room enough to .seat large - crowds of spectators." Dr. May now believes that the best plan would be to use Waterman gym for optional and required work during the winter period and to have a large exercise hall on Ferry field, primarily for Varsity teams, but with enough dress- ing and bathing facilities to accom- modate those who would shift in the spring' to soccer, baseball, tennis and other outdoor games rather than any sort of class work. Need Two Pools Dr. May says that if swimming is to perform the service that it should in a university:-to teach every man to swim--there should 'eventually be two pools, one for the Varsity squad and the other, a larger one, for the student body. Harvard is at present working out such a plan. Cirsl E Cihiow A JOYOUS USICAL DELIG14T g. In?'
