r 'V t£y u~fU&t-r-e Sonie itteresting findings concern- ing single and married peoples' rec- reations are shown by the resuits of a questionnaire sent out by theN- tional .Recreation association irom, NwYork to- ail recreation en -r1n the country. The following, excerpts are froth an article by Gwendoline Keene written for the Boston Trani- script, whicb records the resu!t-f tbe questionnaire: W..lth Of Iftfoýrxaio "The section concerning our likes and dislikes according, to age, se\, and matrimonial status is perbaps the Most fascintating informative of, al the sections in the questionnaire. Age findings aren't s0 spectacular; yonsters in-their early tmenties do more. than twice as many. things as wben they reach forty-five; they find the mioney for. commercial, amuse- ments,- too. As we. grow. older wve shun the allurements of the world and go in for quieter f un around the heartb. Among younig people the boys are slightly more active than the girls, but by the time you are forty- five your active and potential inter- ests' are much, the saine, whether you are. a man or ýwomain, married or single. Most of these -interests lie at home. '"Let's se what niatrimony dots to your recreational habits. 'Single per- sons,' says the report, 'take -partin a mucb - greater number of activities, especially outside ones, than do mar- ried people.' Marriage is pretty bard on the ladies, for 'yôung rnarried women have a more restricted range of activities than any other group. (do we hear some, faint corroborative cheers?) and most of these are bomne ones Maried wmen'iùs interests in- crease, however, as they grow older, and finally catch up to tbe rest of the group. It's the bachelor who sets, the horrible example. Up. to. the age of tbirty or* so he holds the world's record for going places and doing things, then suddenly starts with- daywinz inmtn bis shell. and hy thirty- please a woman dont suggest. carnîg for pets. Motor camping,,. too, is not nientioned aînong the ladies', likes, nor, oddly enough, are card parties. iBotb sexes will join happily, -how-. ever, in most of the sports, inciuding golf. and they ,all like'to go to. the theater. Just as a side-ligt: single people report tbat they indulge in,> and enjoy, conversing; tbe rnarried nônes forget to mention it."9 SPORT AEN R Thursday, JuIy12 7 p.m. Girls piayground hall.. Y. P.
