and quonsets This year the boys and girls P.E. yards were occupied by quonset huts and port- able buildings used by science and home economics classes while the East wing was being remodeled. Because of this handicap the boys volley ball games were dropped and basic skills, folk dancing, and fencing were added to fill the girls curriculum. Another addition to the P.E. program was the California Physical Performance Tests which are required by state law. Both the boys and girls were tested during the spring to determine their physical capabilities. According to Mr. Forrest Klein, head of boys P.E., and Miss Edith Carpenter, head of girls P.E., both programs are based on four things: physical, social, emotional needs. The purpose of the department is to teach students in- dividual or carry-over sports for use after they graduate. After the roll the girls break up into teams for basketball.
