BOOK 3 Through the past centuries, from the early Olympics in Greece, men have been participating in athletics. ‘Today, in the schools across the land, physical activity has assumed an important place in order to broaden and supplement modern education. Sports promote good sportsmanship, clean living, self-control, self-confi- dence, good citizenship, teach lessons of discipline, and create democratic associations. ‘Thus, in recognition of this fact, we present this, the athletic story of our school year.
