"Soldiers Field hasn't been so soggy in many springs as it is this year," Carroll F. Getchell, of 60 Boylston St., laments. "All the attention is on how much varsity sports suffer when the ground is wet, but the present condition is worse for the University's more populated intramural program," he points out.
"For example," he continues, "we have ten baseball fields across the River for intramural play, but only three are operative. This means postponements and overcrowded schedules later that may cause cancellations, to say nothing of the fact that some boys can't get their exercise." The program may get into full swing next week, however.
