Physical Education, which teaches fitness, has become mandatory in most high schools. Mr. Hendricks, Arcadia's athletic director, had to organize, not only the Physical Educa- tion Department, but all athletic teams repre- senting the school. Many sports were covered in a year of P. E., among them, not only major sports, but also little-known ones, such as vol- leyball and speedball. MRS. NANCY TIMBROOK . . . girls' physical education, English . . . 5 2 years teaching . . . sponsored cheer- leaders, Pep Club, girls' intramurals . . . music, sports . . . Time out. Connie Clark demonstrates a speedball lift to attentive ath- letes Barbara Haupt, Jan Sisson, and Connie Mcudell. Speedball was one of the many minor sports covered in physical edu- cation. Frank Riley aims for a free throw while Walter Lahti, Stephen Everson, Rick Larson and Don Bisbee anxiously await the flight of the ball. This is one of the seasonal sports played by boys in physical education.
