THE SQUASH COURTS

The one all-important function which the University Squash Courts in Randelph Gymnasium are intended to fulfill is, under the present system--or lack of it--entirely unfulfilled. That function is to offer to students who have but little time to spare from their studies an opportunity to get a certain necessary amount of regular exercise; and the reason they fail to do this is that the usual system of signing up for courts has been neglected. There is no patent reason for such neglect; and there is a patent reason why the sign-up system should be put in force.

Earlier in the year when courts were not especially in demand there was obviously no need for limiting the time a pair might hold a court. But now when someone, with only a short time to spare, gets dressed and then finds a line of hopeful players filling the alley behind the courts he is quite naturally impressed with the idea that something is wrong somewhere.

Apropos it might be suggested that, unless we are indeed under a reign of Blue Laws, the Gymnasium and courts be opened to students on Sunday.
