October 31st, 1984 RO THE OTHER PRESS “n Roll vs Sports page 7 Tani Toor, Douglas College’s inter- im intramurals rep, had hoped to ttend the 5th annual Western Can- ian Student Intramural Conference, 0 be held this coming February in by JAYNE MUSKENS last week, in the form of a letter. The Student Society had turned down athletic coordinator Betty Lou Hayes’ request to finance Toor’s trip to the conference. In the letter, Student Society Treas- urer Shane Kennedy stated that the main reason Toor was denied funding was that ‘‘the D.C.S.S. feel that making Rock Stars out of the Jazz band : is more important than physical educa- tion.’’ Therefore, as the Jazz band is Calgary. Toor’s disappointment came Lowe, president of the Alberta Intra- mural Recreation Association, as the keynote speaker. SFU will be present- ing ‘‘Just for the Fun of It’’, which deals with why some students get involved with intramurals and why others do not. There will also be a number of other speakers and presen- tations dealing with intramurals. Presently, the intramural program here at D.C. involves approximately 110 students. Tani Toor is an _indi- vidual willing to put time and effort into the intramural program. His main concern is to provide students with a variety. of intramural activities to choose from. At the moment, there is only indoor soccer. Toor feels that intramural sports service the entire student body.
