APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTOR OF INTRAMURAL ACTIVITIES (6) A year ago I sent the members of the Board of Trustees, for their information, a report of the Urbana-Champaign Senate Committee on Athletics which was received by the Senate and the President was asked to send the information contained therein to appropriate officials. The report includes a section discussing intramural sports and recreation in which the Committee noted that while the University has made reasonably adequate provision for students participating in intercollegiate athletics, there is not adequate provision for the much larger group of students not so participating, and attention was called to the need for development of intramural sports program. Subsequently, a special committee was appointed to study the program of intramural activities at the University of Illinois and to make recommendations. The Committee submitted a comprehensive report with a number of recommendations, one of them being that the supervision and development of intramural activities, heretofor the responsibility of the Athletic Association, be placed in the College of Physical Education as a separate Division of Intramural Activities, with a full-time director in charge, responsible to the Dean of the College. I have implemented this recommendation administratively and the operating budget for 1962-63 includes provision for this program, effective September 1, 1962. The Dean of the College of Physical Education recommends the appointment of Dr, David O. Matthews, presently Associate Professor of Health and Physical Education and Director of Intramural Athletics for Men at Bowling Green State University, as Associate Professor of Physical Education for Men on indefinite tenure, and Director of Intramural Activities at the University of Illinois for one year from September 1, 1962, at an annual salary of $12,500, on twelve-month service basis. The Dean of the Graduate College and the Executive Vice-President and Provost endorse this recommendation. I concur. O n m o t i o n of M r .
