The softest job in the world
of sports is probably that of
the groom who tends the
equestrian statue of Marcus
Aurelius in Rome. The statue
has been attended by a groom
hired on a special retainer for
more than 1000 years!

Touch football
begins activities
There will be a new format for
intramural sports this year. All
intramurals will be on set after-
noons and nights. There will be
one designated night a week for
the first four weeks. Thereafter,
they will expand to two a week.
On the set days, the entire HPE
facilities will be open for use by
both dorm and non-dorm TJC
students. There will be no fees
charged for these activities but an
activity card will be needed for
swimming.
Team sports will include touch
football, basketball, volleyball,
bowling and women’s softball. To
participate in team sports, a
student must play for an organi-
zation on campus.
Individual competition will be
in tennis, golf, badminton, hand-
ball, pool and ping pong tourna-
ments. No organizational back-
ing will be required for comp-
etition in these sports. All of
these tournaments will be co-
educational, except for touch
football.
Rosters are now being accepted
by Coach Jim Brown from organi-
zations which wish to have teams
in the touch football tournament.
Brown’s office is in the East Gym.
