Abstract: All penal institutions in the United States have recreation pro grams, although they vary in extent because of limitations of space and facilities. Prison administrators recognize that well-directed recreation is vital to an ade quate program for effecting the rehabilitation of the inmate. Progress toward securing sufficiently extensive recreation lags because of inadequate financing and is hindered because the public is apathetic to institutional needs in this respect.
